Inside a VIP luxury ward in the government hospital.
Jonathan held the disconnected phone in his hands and winked at the handsome man lying in the hospital bed. He was so delighted that he could not help but laugh, “Credence, I had the speaker on just now, so you must have heard everything clearly, right? It seems like Dorothy is really concerned about you!
Look at how bright your smile is. Don’t tell me you’ve already found an opportunity to do it with her already? Tsk, tsk, all of your pent-up sexual frustration accumulated over those six years must have found its release. If you’re lucky, some of that seed might already be growing inside her.”
Credence remained emotionless and said coldly, “Shut up! You sure yack a lot.”
“Yo!”
Jonathan snapped his fingers lightly and smiled, “Credence, at least own up to the deed! If you’ve done it, why can’t we talk about it?”
When all he received in reply was the man’s sharp gaze, Jonathan quickly lowered his head and begged for mercy, “Sorry Credence, I was wrong, please spare me. Let’s be serious for a while though. You and Dorothy have divorced for almost six and a half years now. Don’t you think it’s not right to sleep with her like that? Haven’t you ever thought about marrying her again?”
Credence gave Jonathan a cold, annoyed look and replied stoically, “I have already asked Benjamin to prepare the necessary arrangements.”
“Damn, Credence, you’re finally smart for once. I’m telling you, what women yield to most is persistence. The more you bug her, the harder it will be for her to resist.
Also, you must know how to be romantic. Do you know what lovers usually do now? Candlelit dinners and roses are way outdated already. You need to do something more spectacular, maybe take her for a ride in a helicopter and buy her a star in the sky! You need to take her to the south pole, adopt a newborn penguin, and you should also wear matching clothes with her and sing romantic songs together!
Goodness, Credence. I can already imagine you singing in front of Dorothy with that horrible voice of yours. What a scene that would be.”
Credence frowned at that. He really wanted to stuff something into Jonathan’s blabbering mouth.
And so, he actually did.
Credence grabbed the ashtray on the bedside table and threw it at Jonathan mercilessly.
“Damn, Credence, you’re so evil…” Jonathan bemoaned in fright as his handsome face paled. He hurriedly dodged the flying object and quickly walked out of the ward to hide from further attacks.
He took his steps out of the ward with his back facing the exit. However, as he did not have eyes on his back, he suddenly stumbled into something full and soft.
Jonathan had frequented brothels, so he naturally knew what that soft feeling was. He wanted to turn around and see which beautiful woman he had touched. When he turned around, he realized that it was an intern named Minnie Luther, who looked somewhat pretty. He could not help but let out a low whistle, “Hello beautiful, which part of you did I touch just now?”
He may be a mature and rich man, but whenever he saw beautiful women, he would always try to find ways to tease them. When teasing failed and threaded into bickering territory, he found that he quite enjoyed such a development as well.
This was especially the case as Jonathan owned the hospital. There were more female doctors and nurses in his hospital than there were males. For the sake of benefits and getting a promotion, most female doctors and nurses would show affection towards him secretly and out in the open which lead to him subconsciously look at women with contempt, especially beautiful ones.
Unexpectedly, Jonathan suffered a loss this time.
Minnie was less than 20 years old and was interning at the hospital. Therefore, she didn’t know that it was the famous director standing in front of her. Not only did he accidentally bump into her sensitive parts, he also knocked off her right contact lens, which pissed her off.
After his frivolous flirting, with blurry vision and anger raging inside of her, she rolled up her sleeves fiercely and scolded him, “Sir, you look like a decent human being, yet how can you act so shamelessly? If you really like to take advantage of women so much, I’d suggest you f*ck off!”
Oh d*mn, Jonathan thought that he had bumped into a shrew by accident. F*ck!
At first, he had thought that the girl was beautiful, bright, and delicate so he assumed that she would blush if he flirted with her. However, he had never imagined her to be so hot-tempered, scolding him for his ways. Even though controlling his temper had never been a problem, he could feel himself emanate a fierce aura in defence as he snorted coldly.
“Save it, it was just an accident, that’s all. Who would even fancy someone like you? You’d better go back home and take a good look in the mirror before saying things like that.
The government hospital is one with the most good-looking staff in Talco City. However, now that you’re here, the beauty standards of this place have been lowered significantly. I really regret approving your internship.”
At this moment, in order to protect his dignity, he had to lie. He would never admit that among the dozens of applications he had gone through, he had only signed and approved of Minnie’s internship position.
Solely because every other applicant either looked just alright or completely below his standards.
That’s right. Jonathan was such a prejudiced, rich, and stubborn director. He would only take a fancy to good looking people, and only they had the rights to work in his hospital.
If they were either bald or ugly, he would eliminate them on the spot.
Minnie had never been looked down on by any men for her looks in her life. She was so upset that her eyes filled with tears, “You… you’re mean! I hope that you’ll be disfigured one day and end up looking uglier than a beast!”
After she finished yelling, she ran away without attempting to even find the contact lens that she had lost. She scolded and cursed him as she ran.
“F*ck, I just accidentally bumped into her! Did she really have to scold me so viciously?”
Jonathan walked back to the ward irritably. As soon as he looked up, he saw that Credence was looking at him with sharp eyes and there was a faint smile on his face. He wiped his face frustratingly, trying to get rid of the saliva that the girl had spat onto him, “Credence, I’ll head out for a moment. I can’t let a girl just have one over me like that!”
“Alright.”
Credence nodded in understanding.
He stared at Jonathan’s raging retreating figure and had a feeling that the man’s love life might just about to begin.
As a man himself, Credence naturally knew that every man had a wild desire to conquer within them.
The more a man was dismissed or disrespected by a woman, the more he would want to conquer the woman who challenged his authority.
It was just like how he used to be. When Dorothy had loved him, he did not bother to even look at her.
However, now that Dorothy’s feeling for him had changed into indifference, he wanted to conquer her and make her sing under him.
It was a man’s true nature!
At the same time, Dorothy reached the hospital and began to head towards the ward that Jonathan had directed her. It was the most luxurious ward on the top floor.
Then, she took the elevator to the top. Once she stepped out, she did her best to suppress the panic in her heart and rushed to the end of the corridor.
Her vision swayed for a bit as she had been walking too quickly.
However, just as she was about to reach the door, she immediately slowed down and stopped in her tracks. She waited for her breath to return to normal before she pushed the half-closed door and called out in a soft tone, “Credence, are you inside?”
