Lahat ng Kabanata ng Doctor, Please Be My Wife Again: Kabanata 51 - Kabanata 60

(Aliana’s POV)I froze for a moment, my eyes moving between my ruined dress and the coffee spilled across the floor.“Oh my God,” Caren muttered, her voice snapping me out of my shock.My fists clenched, and my face hardened as I lifted my head to look at the man who had caused the mess.“What is your problem, Delvin?” I snapped, my voice filled with disbelief.How could he just walk in here and knock the cup out of my hand like that?“Thank God I got here in time to stop you from drinking that,” he said, breathing hard, like he had rushed all the way here.“Do you mind explaining what this behavior is about?” I shouted, unable to hold back my anger.He had really been getting on my nerves lately. I was still trying to process everything he had done since the operation, especially what he did three days ago… and now this too?“Aliana, that coffee is poisoned,” he said, his voice tight but firm.An awkward silence filled the room.The ward assistant stared at him, her mouth slightly op

(Delvin's POV)"By the time she recovers, it will be too late. She must have made countless mistakes that would force the judges to make her take a drug test. And guess what?""It will be detected in her blood because she took the drug without even knowing it," he added, and they all burst out laughing.I froze, my eyes widening."And guess who would lose her medical license, or even risk going to jail for that?" one of them continued, triggering another round of laughter.My heart thundered in my chest. They were planning to ruin Aliana. They had poisoned her coffee.I reacted immediately, rushing toward the door. I needed to see their faces, to hold them accountable for what they had done, but they were already gone, having walked out through the back door before I could get there.I tried to follow, but the door required a staff ID, and I didn’t have one."Aliana…" I whispered, and started walking as fast as I could toward the doctors’ locker room.Pain shot through my side from mo

(Aliana's POV) I removed my surgical cap and mask, then pushed open the operating room door and stepped out of the theatre. The moment I walked into the corridor, the patient’s family gathered around me, their faces filled with worry and fear. They had clearly been waiting. “Doctor! How is he?” a woman, probably his wife, asked, her voice full of concern. “Is he okay?” another person asked. “Did the surgery go well?” a young man asked this time. He looked like a younger version of the patient... maybe his son. I looked at them, seeing how deeply concerned they all were. This is the best and also the hardest part of being a surgeon… the moment when you have to announce the success or failure of a surgery. But today, I would be sharing good news. A soft smile appeared on my lips as I gave a gentle nod. “The surgery went well,” I said calmly. “He’s stable now, and the obstruction has been cleared.” “Thank goodness!” they all said, letting out deep breaths of relie

(Delvin’s POV)“Delvin…” my mum called from behind me. “What is wrong? Why have you been like this since yesterday?”I let out a quiet sigh but didn’t turn to look at her. I didn’t even get up from the bed. I had told her many times to leave me alone. I wasn’t in a good mood.My mood had been terrible since yesterday, ever since Aliana said those things to me. It got even worse after I found out she lost the first round of the competition because of complications during the surgery.I had wanted to go and see her yesterday, to comfort and encourage her, but I couldn’t bring myself to go. Because seeing me might upset her even more, and I didn’t want that.So I stayed in this room all day, feeling down, and part of me kept hoping that Aliana would be the one to show up this morning… not any other doctor.“You’ve finally been allowed to walk on your own without the wheelchair, but you haven’t even stepped out of this room. Did something happen?” my mum asked, her voice full of concern.

(Aliana’s POV)“Thank you so much for saving my life, doctor,” the patient I operated on yesterday said, his voice low.After leaving Delvin’s room this morning, I came straight here to check on him as well.He looked weak but stable, and there was deep sadness on his face as he looked at me. I could tell his family had already told him everything, and he regretted that his actions didn’t just put his health at greater risk but also cost me the first round.“And I am equally sorry for all the trouble you and your team went through,” he finally said.A warm smile formed on my lips.“It’s okay, sir. I understand you were very hungry and just wanted food…” I was saying, but he cut me off.“No, doctor,” he mumbled, shaking his head weakly. “It’s true that I was very hungry, but I didn’t eat because I wanted to disobey instructions. A nurse gave me the burger I ate.”I paused instantly, blinking in surprise at what he had just said. “What are you talking about?” I muttered, my tone tight w
