Chapter 355
355 Lolita is awake
At the hospital…
Doc Matt stared at his phone one more time and sighed for the umpteenth time. That father and son
are driving him crazy. He was expecting a call but thanks to them, his phone is switched off.
Switching it back on is not the problem but what happens if one of them, or rather, Jeslyn calls? He had
no time at all to be dragged into that family’s childish mess.
While he was thinking, a knock sounded on the door before it was pushed open by a pretty and clean
nurse.
“Doctor Matt, the patient in VIP room 2 is awake”
“How long had she been awake?”
“Since yesterday.”
Doctor Matt raised his gaze to stare emotionlessly at her before she immediately continued for fear that
she might bear the punishment for a sin she didn’tmit.
“Doctor Amy checked on her and instructed you shouldn’t be disturbed as you had a long surgery
yesterday.”
Doctor Matt got up and picked up his white coat and stethoscope before heading out with the nurse.
On getting to VIP Ward 2, Lolita was seen sitting on the bed with her head resting on the headrest. Her
lips were chapped and her colorful face had turned white.
When she saw Doc Matt walk in through the door, she turned her face away and tried to lie back
down.
Doc Matt noticed but said nothing. He checked on her and after a while, asked; “How do you feel?”
“My heart hurts,” she replied without looking at him.)
Doc Matt looked at herfor a long time before saying to the nurse beside him; “Prepare for a full body
check.”
“Yes, Senior,” thedy left after that.
Matt pulled out his phone from his pocket and turned it on. There were a few missed calls from Valen.
He shook his head with a small smile on his lips before dialing Maverick’s number.
“Inform your wife; her friend is awake.” He kept the phone after that and passed his gaze over L.
She still didn’t look at him.
Doc Matt went over to a couch in the room and sat on it with one leg crossed over the other.
“Was my family informed?” she asked.
“Mn.”
“No one caine?”
“No, he responded.
Silence filled the room for a long time before he asked. “Do you know how long you’ve been asleep?”
“Almost two weeks… your girlfriend couldn’t wait to inform me. It seems I took a lot of your time while I
was asleep.” She finally turned to look at him. “You should have told me she existed. I wouldn’t have
bothered you.”
“Because she’s not important,” he replied.

“You’ll always be an asshole.” Lolita turned her face to the ceiling and closed her eyes but a teardrop
slipped down her eyes. The hurtful words from that ugly doctor romanced her brain.
“You’re finally awake. I was beginning to think you were doing this on purpose. Doc Matt is in the ward,
still, you have to take almost two weeks to wake up.
“I’m sure you liked the feel of his touch on your filthy skin, which was why you took so long to wake.
Now that you are, I’ll take over from him.
“Mind you, I saw the video of you kissing him in the elevator, and before that, I saw how you were
throwing yourself at him. Just to inform you, he’s my man and I’ll not have a prostitute like you
snatch
him away from me, got that?

“You should be lucky I signed to save lives, else I would have sent you back to thend of no return!”
The more Lolita remembered those words, the harder her tears fell. She hated a third party in a
rtionship so much that she never wished to be one.
A third party in a rtionship was what destroyed her happy family, and in the end, took her mother’s
life, which in turn, changed her family into a problematic one.
She took a deep breath and slowly wiped her tears. Jeslyn will be here soon and it would be extremely
bad if she sees those tears.
Meanwhile, the observant Doc Matt had seen her wiping her tears and thought she was crying because
none of her family cared about her.
A whileter, the pretty nurse walked into the room with a female doctor. She smiled at Doc Matt but.
he didn’t acknowledge her with the simplest nce but the doctor didn’t seem to mind.
She walked up to Lolita and smiled genuinely. “Good afternoon patient, how do you feel?” She tried to
touch Lolita but she barked at her.
“Get your filthy hands off me!!!”
Yesterday, she couldn’t talk back because her mind was foggy and her throat was dry. Although her
voice still sounded weird, it was enough to convey her anger.
“Don’t you dare fake your love for me. I know you hate me and I do too. There’s no need to pretend
that we like each other. I don’t want to see you as much as you don’t want to see me, so get me
another doctor!”
Doctor Amy was stunned. She blinked a few times to process what just happened, “Are you sure you
aren’t mistaken, youngdy?”
“You wouldn’t want me toyints to the head of this hospital on how you treat patients. To
prevent us both from suffering, I don’t want you to be my doctor anymore. Get me a recement!!”
“Please, Young Miss, calm down, your wound might open up.” The pretty nurse begged.
She was there when Doctor Amy spoke ruthlessly to a patient that just woke up.
Doctor Amy is one of the best junior surgeons in the hospital. She was handpicked by Doctor Matt
when he saw her talent but ever since, Doc Amy started to see herself as Doc Matt’s woman.
Whenever she saw a nurse with Doc Matt, she would make sure they were fired. She doesn’t care if
the nurses were just having an important conversation with Doc Matt.
As for patients, if they dared to smile at Doc Matt, Doc Amy would get mad and refuse to treat them. A
female patient diedst year because of Doc Amy’s carelessness in handling thedy’s matter, just
because the patient promised that if she survives the operation and gets well, she would pursue Doc
Matt.
Although the pretty nurse knew about it, she didn’t dare to tell anyone. After all, Doc Amy has a strong
background. 1
