Doctor Jonathan Crane Novels & Stories

"Not a response to his reaching out to me. They were always going to remove him. The timing around my contact with him was coincidental or it was used as additional cover." I think about Maddox in his office. Pale and Nervous. The body language of a man who knew he was already too deep in something to come out clean. He knew the risk. He tried anyway. He left that envelope for Nora anyway. I owe him the same stubbornness. The attorney's name is Judith Crane. She arrives at the estate at seven in the evening and she is exactly what her name suggests. Angular, sharp-eyed, impeccably dressed, with the efficiency, coolness and warmth of someone who has thirty years of experience and just kind of

It had been six months since the trial for diane's criminal actions. Jonathan and jade had bought and restyled an entire house in the time that it had taken. Jonathan only work part time most of the time now. And he also did most of his consulting from home. He was able to set up a virtual section of the house where he could actually do 90% of his work. The hospital actually found that it was easier and he was able to work with multiple different hospitals as well. He was creating a new way into science and the way that he could do his job even better.

"But Crane seemed genuine in his office. The foundation is real, the restitution is happening. Maybe Claire is just being paranoid." "Maybe." She doesn't sound convinced. That night I can't sleep, Claire's warning playing on repeat in my mind. I get up and go to my office, pulling up everything I can find about Crane's recent activities. The foundation is real, the money is being transferred, he's cooperating with the investigation into Thomas's embezzlement. Everything seems legitimate. But something feels off. Crane gave in too easily, agreed to everything too quickly. Men like him don't just surrender their revenge plans because of one conversation about compassion.

AVIA My head throbbed so badly it felt like someone had cracked my skull open. A groan slipped from my lips as I forced my eyes open, but everything around me stayed dark. The air was filled with the smell of dust, cigarettes, and for one disoriented second I thought I was still home, maybe passed out after another exhausting shift or bing watching too many movies, but then I tried moving my hands and rough rope bit violently into my wrists. Fear shot into me instantly.

Lena said. "Geoffrey Crane," Clara said. Lena stared at the wave mechanics textbook. "Crane was seventeen years old in 1994," she said. "Geoffrey Crane was," Clara said. "There's another Geoffrey Crane. His father. Also associated with Hale-Draven from 1988 onwards." She paused. "The original Geoffrey Crane, the father, has been dead for twelve years. His son — the one you found in the accounts — inherited the association."

"I am Elton Crane, representing the Cranes of Gotham County in Sccolt. We're shifting our business focus back to the domestic market, and my company will go public in a week. "Companies that work with me in suppressing Zest Summer Group shall be considered my allies." Another wave of shock gasps rippled through the audience. "I heard rumors that the youngest son of the Cranes was a rebel. He cut ties with his family for a woman, but now, I guess he's back." "That's right. The Cranes basically rule Sccolt, and they're as powerful as the Grays. With both of them targeting Zest Summer Group, that company is as good as bankrupt."

Katerina: “Luna Katerina, you just need to make sure that you don’t forget your medication. Your body is strong and you should be healing quickly, but you would need to take things a little easier on yourself” Doctor Ciara said, smiling at me. I nodded, laying back down on the bed, watching as she packed her things to leave. Alpha Nathan walked toward me, sitting on the edge of the bed beside me before taking my hand in his. I stayed quiet, waiting for the pack’s doctor to leave the room before turning my attention to him, raising an amused eyebrow at his attitude “you can go to your opening”

"You have a contact inside Crane's legal team." "My father has a contact inside Crane's legal team." She kept her voice level. "I told you our interests were parallel, Nora. I meant that in both directions." She lowered the tablet. "Crane's man at the gate — his name is Sutton. He works private security, Crane's personal contractor. He's not there to negotiate." "What is he there to do?" "Remove the physical evidence and remove anyone who can verify the chain of custody." She said it with the same pleasant voice she used for everything, which made it considerably worse. "That includes Adrian. It includes you." A pause. "It possibly includes me, at this point."

“What do you want from Jace?” Crane tilted his head. “Still protecting your billionaire boyfriend, are we? Tell me, River, do you even know who he really is?” “Enough of your crap, Crane,” River snapped. “You used my father, you used Cole, and now you’re hiding in warehouses. What’s your endgame?” Crane chuckled, slow and bitter. “My endgame? I don’t have one anymore. He ruined me, River. Jace Maddox destroyed everything I built, my company, my reputation, my future. So I’m just returning the favor.”

Squinting my eyes to get a clear view of the redhead's face, I froze when the face became clear. No. Freaking. Way. "Excuse me Doctor, who is that lady over there?" I asked, interrupting the conversation. "Oh, that's our new cardiologist, Doctor Giordana," he replied. Rob and I glanced at each other, then where she stood and back to the Doctor. "Is there a problem?" The doctor asked. "No, nothing, just carry on," I said. Some minutes later, we concluded the discussion and excused ourselves. "Did you see her or have I started hallucinating?" I asked Rob as we stepped out of the ward.
