บททั้งหมดของ VITALS RISING: DR. NOLAN WILL SEE YOU NOW : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Chapter 1Aria’s POV“Next person! Miss Aria Scott, please go over to room 100 for allergy…that is dermatology, down the hallway on your right.”The nurse shouted as her voice echoed across the waiting hall, jolting me from the restless scratching of my shoulder. I sprang to my feet immediately and walked to the counter; she gave me a card with my name written on it. “Thank you,” I murmured quickly. She gave me a kind smile, the sort of smile that made you feel safe, but even if the smile was warm, that wasn’t what I needed right now because the irritation on my skin was getting more intense.I pulled my jacket slightly as I was walking down the hall following her directions. My shoulder was red, swollen, and itchy, and scratching it only made it worse.Allergies? Yeah. I feel so frustrated, and wearing a jacket in hot weather is something I hated, but I had no choice, right?My bad!Quick introduction: my name is Aria, I am twenty-three years old, and I am currently a student at the

3Aria’s POVI wish for one thing right now and that is, for the ground to open and swallow me up. I couldn’t believe I had disgraced myself again in front of my crush. What the hell was wrong with me? How could I do something so reckless?And worse of all; how did I even let him, of all people, see my fake lashes lying helplessly on the table like an abandoned secret? And to crown it, why should he also be the one who asked me to throw it into the dustbin!? That meant only one thing: I disgusted him.My friend Linda’s laughter wasn’t helping either. She couldn’t stop. Every few seconds, she burst out laughing, her face was already turning red, she was laughing until tears came out of her eyes.My anger was bubbling inside, but I kept my composure—or at least I tried to. I walked slowly to the table with a shaky and weak knees, My hand trembled as I picked up the lashes, and without any further actions I rushed out of the room before I could see his expression. I didn’t dare look back

5Aria’s POVI was just talking with Nora as she was gisting with me about her uncle being a doctor. I know I was being picky, but I couldn’t help it—I loved her naiveness. She talks so innocently and purely, and it made me smile every second. The fact that she wanted to link me up with her uncle made me laugh so hard. I was just enjoying the moment when he walked in....“Uncle Nolan!” Nora shouted in a tiny, excited voice. She immediately stood up from where she was sitting and rushed toward the door. My eyes followed her, and when I turned back, I froze.Standing there, smiling as if nothing happened, like he wasn’t the cold-hearted man I knew him to be. the same Dr. Nolan...the man who had rejected me three times just last week and left me broken! I was so quiet and frustrated from the rejection, and now here he was...I stared at him in disbelief because I couldn't believe that the uncle Nora wanted me to date was him, like Nora was actually Dr. Nolan’s niece!What were the odds?

CHAPTER 7ARIA’S POVMy face burned with embarrassment and shock, my cheeks was so hot that I could feel the heat crawling all the way to my ears. I couldn’t believe what had just happened. The fact that I had come here to pretend about an allergic reaction, to get a simple check-up and maybe steal another chance to see him, but instead I had turned into a reckless talkative. Why? why on earth—did I have to mention the conference? I hadn’t even checked the post before blurting it out. Now I wished the ground would split open and swallow me whole.Of all things, why would I want to attend a conference about that? A medical talk that sounded like a secret manual on how to satisfy women and how age affected men. It is a medical conference that is clearly Only for men. My stomach twisted as I replayed my careless words in my head. The shame was unbearable.And that was when I saw those faint curves on Dr. Nolan’s face which is painted with half smile, and half warning….he let out a sat

CHAPTER 9ARIA’S POVEven though the day wasn’t packed with errands, it somehow felt exhausting, as if my body had run a marathon my mind didn’t sign up for. Maybe it was because of what happened earlier at the hospital. Even after taking a nap before heading to the studio to teach Nora, a heavy tiredness still clung to me. It wasn’t the kind of fatigue that came from running or lifting a heavyweight, rather it was a deep and invisible kind that settles in when emotions do all the work. My heart felt as though it had been carrying weights since morning.When I arrived at the studio and saw Nora waiting, I had expected to see her mother beside her. Her mom had called earlier, promising she would be the one to pick her up after the lesson. I’d been counting on that. I thought that would mean no unexpected encounters—no chance of running into Dr. Nolan again.But fate clearly had other plans.Instead of Nora’s mom, it was Dr. Nolan who appeared at the doorway, standing there with a qui
