Chapter 39 A Big and Warm Embrace


    What was he doing here?


    On the screen, Hendrix stood at the door with expectation all over his face. Because of something they


    were unaware of, Hendrix looked like he had attained a sess and was well-contented now.


    Riley frowned, “You asked him toe?”


    Euan snorted coldly, “You are not answering the door?”


    At this moment, Euan was feeling a bit confused.


    When the door was opened, Hendrix’sughing rose up from the first floor to the second, “Sister-inw,


    my brother was out on a business trip. You got up very early!”


    Riley wanted to tell him Euan was on the second floor, but before she opened her mouth, Hendrix


    already sat on the sofa without asking. He made himself at home and crossed his legs, “Sister-inw,


    the bag you bought is great. It’s thetest. They only have begun selling it in Europe recently.”


    “No...”


    “Sister-inw! Make me the breakfast that you made the other day! I haven’t eaten yet and came for


    the breakfast you make.”


    Riley was feeling on edge and talked back with an unhappy voice, “Hendrix, I am just off duty. I don’t


    have the energy to make breakfast. Please go back.”


    Hendrix turned his head to her and bantered, “Sister-inw, when I asked you to dinner, you rejected


    me immediately. But you were pretty close to the man doctor of your hospitalst night. You didn’t even


    think before saying yes to him. And now I came here in person to ask for a breakfast. You are going to


    reject me again?”


    “Hendrix George!”


    “Hendrix.”


    Two different voices came into Hendrix’s ears at the same time. Seeing his brother standing beside the


    staircase on the second floor, Hendrix was shocked and his face changed immediately. He stood up


    from the sofa and tried to make a natural smile, “Brother, you are home? Didn’t you go for a business


    trip?”


    Crap. Euan must have heard most of what he said before.


    The expression on Euan’s face didn’t change at all. He said coldly as if he didn’t hear what Hendrix


    said, “Go back.”


    Hendrix grinned, “Brother, I am just here and you want me to go back?”


    “Go back!”


    Dejected and despondent, Hendrix left the vi.


    Therge living room was full of silence.


    Euan’s cold eyes were like bottomless brown pools, “How are you going to exin to me?”


    Riley looked at the antique shelf, “I have nothing to exin. I am clean.”


    Euan examined the woman before him with his eyes. She acted like a slut and drew the scumbag


    Kaysorn. And then she didn’t forget to seduce a man when working a night shift. Now he heard that she


    had a meal with a man doctor. Besides...Hendrix thought he wasn’t home and directly came to his


    house to ask for a breakfast. Riley Watson, after three years, you were really better at being a woman


    of loose morals!


    “Woman, I will let you witness the consequences of your stubbornness.”


    Then he picked up his coat and car key before heading out. Riley run to him and grabbed his arm,


    “Where are you going?”


    Euan nced at her hand which was holding his arm and shouted loudly, “Loose your hand!”


    “Euan George, what else do you want to do? How many people are you going to injure?”


    She questioned him and asked him how many people he was going to hurt. This cold-hearted, no, this


    heartless woman didn’t even think about how much she had hurt him.


    Damn it! She could still act like she was sacrificing herself to protect others. Woman, how long were


    you going to fool me?


    ”You want a divorce? Okay, I will give you a chance.”


    Euan suddenly gave her a cold smile. He looked down at the woman before him. His deep eyes were


    invible and rejected any interruption.


    “What do you mean?”


    Sitting in Euan’s car, Riley thought about millions of possibilities. Did Euan really agree to the divorce?


    Or was he using the divorce as an excuse to humiliate her again?


    The car drove at an insanely fast speed as if it were flying. The speed represented Euan’s fury. He was


    about to explode, and so was the speedometer.


    Looking up, Riley saw the gate of JD Central Hospital.


    Riley’s hand clutched the safety belt tightly, “What are you doing here?”


    She didn’t know what to expect now. Why would Euan do this?


    Euan didn’t know why they ended up here either. A minute before, his head was about to explode, and


    he wanted to choke Riley to death. But now he lost all his courage all of a sudden.


    It was funny though. He was the young master of the George family. Who would know that the famous


    Mr. George would ever go through such a moment?


    The ck Rolls-Royce stopped at the gate. In the car, it was dead-like silence. Outside the car, people


    were walking fast to go to work.


    Euan punched his fist on the steering wheel. He swore that this was thest time that he lost control for


    Riley Watson.


    But at the moment he was about to leave the hospital, his phone rang up. On the screen, it was the


    telephone number of the Saunders family.


    “Mr. George, Ms. Saunders seems to have been stimted by something. She suddenly had a


    stomachache. Her father and mother are both not home. Pleasee quickly!”


    “Okay!”

    Euan hung up the phone swiftly, “Get off!”


    Riley’s thought didn’t catch up with Euan’s. She froze at what he shouted.


    “Get the fuck out!”


    She heard it loud and clear this time. And she understood it too.


    Her thin fingers opened the door violently. Riley stood beside the road like a fool and stared at Euan’s


    car as it drove away.


    If she wasn’t standing at the hospital’s gate now, maybe what was going to happen wouldn’t make her


    feel so embarrassed. However, when a person was in bad luck, he always ran into the most


    unfortunate things.


    “Dr. Watson, why are you standing here? Please go have a look. The hospital is in a big mess now.”


    A doctor in white gown who just ran from the hospital to the outside to wait for an ambnce shouted


    to Riley.


    “What’s wrong?” Riley didn’t know what all the fuss was about.


    “Ah. Please go see for yourself.’


    Riley frowned, “Okay then.”


    After what had happened between her and Euan, could anything worse happen?


    Actually, it could.


    Riley hadn’t slept for the whole night. But her dark eye circles were almost scared to disappearance at


    what she sawter.


    With a hand holding the mouse, Riley looked at a hot forum in scare. On the first page, the picture of


    her and William was posted at the centre by someone with a wicked mind.


    The headline in ck was legible and conspicuous...As a doctor, she took advantage of the night shift


    and boldly flirted with a strange man in the office!


    Below it was a fabricated story which was ridiculous but convincing at first sight.


    In the story, Riley was a slutty, shameless woman by her nature. Everyone could invite her to bed. She


    constantly had sex with doctors, patients and even their families in hospital. She was a slut who


    offended public decency.


    Riley was overweeningly arrogant. She relied on her little medical skills and treated others with


    contempt. She challenged the authority of her leaders in pubic. She bypassed the immediate


    leadership and did many unforgivable things.


    Every fabricated thing was depicted in detail. No wonder others would find them convincing.


    “Such a doctor is a disgrace to the hospital. She insulted the profession of doctor!” This sentence was


    the end of the passage, which was also a summary.


    Blue veins throbbed on her forehead, and so were the distinct blue veins on her hand back!


    Standing beside her, Serena was shocked by her powerful and scary vibe. Serena struggled for a long


    while but still dared not to speak.


    Teddy walked to Riley’s side and warned her in a gentle tone, “Dr. Watson, rumors ended in the ears of


    a wise man. Don’t let it weigh on your mind. You just took a night shift. Go back to have a rest now.”


    Go back? How could she go back now?


    Serena and Margot carefully observed the man’s profile. They hadn’t interacted with William yet, so


    they didn’t know it was him.


    Riley stood up suddenly and strode out of the room.


    Serena thought at first that she was going to kill someone.


    “Dr. Watson! Where are you going? Don’t be impulsive! Being impulsive brings trouble! Don’t...”


    “I am going to the control room! I am going to find out who was stabbing me at my back.”


    Serena pulled her, “It’s no use. You are just a doctor and don’t have the right to ask the security guards


    to pull out the CCTV footage.”


    Yes, she couldn’t. But someone could.


    The same website page was now on William’sputer screen too. It happenedst night and was all


    over the news this morning. Clearly, it was a well-devised plot.


    However... William frowned. The one who took the picture chose a specific angle so that only Riley’s


    face was clearly showed and his face wasn’t. Evidently, this was a deliberate nder on Riley.


    Who was stabbing Riley at her back? Who did Riley offend?


    William tossed the mouse away and stood up before heading out.


    “I told you already. Don’t be fooled by her appearance. She is innocent and elegant on the outside. But


    on the inside, she was filthy and dirty!”


    Nurses gathered together before theputer screen. Their gossips and abuses all fell into Riley’s


    ears. She walked out of the duty room, and was about to take the elevator to the floor of the vice


    president’s office. When she passed the nurse desk of the department of cardiology, she stopped.


    “She dared to flirt with the man in the office of our hospital. She is so shameless. I was a fool to praise


    her as young and capable before.”


    “Maybe it is only the tip of the iceberg. Didn’t you see what the informant wrote? What shemitted


    before was more outrageous and nastier than this thing.”


    Riley’s bleary red eyes smiled coldly. She clutched on to the division te for support. Her mouth


    corner slightly rose up. Because she found it all so hrious and ridiculous, she appeared calm and


    rxed.


    “Someone in thements section disclosed that she beat and cursed her stepmother. She often


    loses her temper at her stepmother and disrespects her at all.”


    “Gosh! Someone disclosed that Riley Watson was already married and that she hid this fact on


    purpose to seduce other men.”


    “This one is more outrageous. The reason why she managed to resolve the medical dispute and was


    rewarded with a silk banner before was that she apanied an official for one night! Is it true...”


    “Stop talking. She’s here.”


    A nurse said with a low voice, and others became silent too.


    “Why aren’t you talking? You were discussing about me, right? Didn’t you intend to let me hear it?”


    There was no embarrassment on her face. Instead, she made the nurses who were squawking feel


    embarrassed.


    “Dr. Watson...”


    “You think that’s me?” Sheughed at herself.


    The nurses all looked at each other. No one dared to speak.


    “Riley Watson, you do have an innocent face which can fool everyone. Even I didn’t know that behind


    your doctor’s gown was such a wicked heart.”


    Jeanne’s scornful sarcasm came out. Then it was the clear sound which rang up when her high-heeled


    shoes touched the ground. Holding a case file in her hand, Jeanne looked like she was just passing by.


    Riley clenched her fists, “Vice director Pouchain, be careful with your mouth!”


    Jeanne’s rosy red lips opened and closed, “You don’t forget to swear at others at this moment? Riley


    Watson, I look froward to your future performance in this hospital. Oh, by the way, if you are afraid that


    you might get fired, you cane to me. Thinking of how hard you have worked for this hospital, I may


    plead for you.”


    Dropping thest sentence, Jeanne nced at Riley with despise and strode away with her long legs


    wrapped by a pair of jeans.


    The nurses lowered their heads and began giggling.


    Riley was so infuriated that her fair face turned pale. She walked to the elevator and pressed the “up”


    button crazily. When she was fidget, the elevator door opened.


    Before Riley could step forward, a big, strong hand reached out from the inside and grabbed her arm.


    Then the hand directly dragged her into the elevator.


    She didn’t have time to see who it was. Suddenly, everything went ck and a clear and fresh smell


    filled her nose. The familiar smell broke the silence and spread out.


    “Ah!”


    The wound on Riley’s knee was scratched. Feeling pain, suddenly she lost her footing and slipped


    down. Her body began leaning backwards!


    But then her back went soft and she fell into a big and warm embrace.
