《The Surgeon’s Revenge Deal》全部章節：第 1 章 - 第 10 章

Gwen’s POV. “Three months,” Dr. Evans' firm voice filled my ears, “without intervention, you have at most, three months left to live, Mrs. Carvers.” Those words landed like a blow, knocking the air right out of my lungs as my eyes dropped to my hands clenched tightly on my thighs. It didn’t matter how hard I was fighting back the tears, it was already rapidly pooling at the bottom of my eyes and blurring my vision of my wedding ring. “I’m sorry but there is very little we can do, the pulmonary hypertension has progressed too far, even with the surgery, the chances of… well, of making it through are very slim given how much your heart is already struggling.” “I have to be honest with you, we’re looking at a five percent survival rate.” A strange high-pitched noise filled my ears and the doctor’s voice gradually began to fade into the background. Everything in the room seemed to disappear, leaving just me and the terrifying darkness in my mind. “This is a major surgery and y

Gwen’s POV. For a full week, I managed to avoid Dr. Alex. It was difficult given how we were now working on a charity project together but it was all I could do to avoid having to apologize for calling him a pervert in the elevator. Everyone loved him in the hospital, patients always wanted him to attend to them and it was weird to see the son of such a wealthy man be so down to earth around regular people. “His family owns majority of the top hospitals in the world. He has won countless awards in this field and to top it all up, he is so good looking.” One of the nurses swooned as we made our way to the cafeteria. “You’re so lucky Gwen, I would give anything to be the one working with him on a project.” Another cried out, grabbing onto my arm playfully. I rolled my eyes because that was what everyone seemed to be talking about these days, him. The annoying doctor whose eyes seemed to be following me around. Every meeting we had for the project, I tried my best to keep m

Gwen's PovAlex swirled his champagne glass, his posture relaxed like he hadn’t just dropped a grenade between us. My heart was slamming against my ribs so hard I was sure both men could hear it.Raymond’s face drained of color for a split second, his eyes darting between me and Alex, then turning dark with disbelief.“You’re lying,” His voice went down an octave lower, as if trying to hypnotise us into vomiting the truth. “You would never…”“Wouldn’t I?” Alex cut in smoothly, stepping closer to my side, his fingers grazing my waist but not quite landing. “She’s a beautiful, intelligent woman who deserves better than what you gave her. Why wouldn’t I?”I couldn’t speak. My throat had closed up completely. Heat rushed up my neck and into my cheeks as the words replayed in my head. What was Alex doing?His hovering hands rested gently on my waist, squeezing reassuringly. A gasp escaped my lips before I could stop it, and my fingers tensed around the glass. The contact was unexpected, a

Gwen's Pov“You have less than a minute to get here, Gwen!” my supervisor’s frantic voice blasted through the phone. “The kids start arriving at 7:30!”“I’m on my way!” I yelled, already shoving my feet into mismatched flats while balancing the phone between my ear and shoulder.I snatched the last box of toys and teddy bears from the closet, almost knocking over a tower of board games in the process. Grabbing my purse, I bolted out the door. A single slice of bread was clamped between my teeth as I flew down the stairs like my life depended on it.This was officially a disaster.And it was one hundred percent Alex’s fault!If that infuriating man hadn’t spent the entire night living rent-free in my head, shirtless, smirking, with that stupid dimple, I wouldn’t be running on three hours of sleep and half a piece of bread.I burst out of the building just as my Uber pulled up. The poor driver looked slightly terrified as I flew into the backseat like a crazy woman who was being chased

Gwen's PovFor the next few days, I avoided him like the plague.I changed my shifts, took longer routes through the hospital, and stayed far away from anywhere he might be. Every time I caught a glimpse of him, my face burned with embarrassment and something else I didn’t want to name. I couldn’t face him yet. Not after what I saw. I thought I was doing a good job of staying invisible, but on day four, Alex finally caught me.I was walking down a quiet hallway near the back exit when a strong hand grabbed my wrist and pulled me into an empty examination room. The door clicked shut behind us.He stood in front of me, breathing hard, his eyes dark and intense.“Why are you avoiding me, Eve?” he dared to ask, raising his head, our eyes meeting.I backed up until my back hit the wall. My heart was thumping hard and fast.“I’m not…” I started, but the lie died in my throat. “Just… leave me alone, Alex. Please, I beg you.”He stepped closer, crowding me against the wall until there was no
