Chapter 66: Don’t touch him
Alex’s lips curled up, looking indifferent as he whispered, "You do your thing." At that moment, the office door was knocked, and Alice poked her head in, looking at Claire and asking, "Director, is this the new nurse?" Claire was startled and quickly shook her head, saying, "No"
But before she could finish her sentence, she saw Nelson walk up to Alice with a charming smile and say, "Yes, it’s me. What can l do for you, beautiful nurse?" the nurse was so flattered by his words that her face turned red. Especially when he spoke with a magnetic and charming voice, which made her feel weak and almost unable to stand. After a while, she recovered and said, "Then, why don’t you come with me? I’ll arrange some work for you." Nelson nodded and followed
Alice out. On the way, he secretly signaled to her when Alice wasn’t paying attention. She blinked her eyes, not understanding, and scratched her head. He gestured with her finger, approached Alice and whispered, "Beautiful sister, can you arrange some work for me that can get me closer to the director?"
"I just started working here, and I’m not familiar with the director yet, you know." She nodded knowingly and said helplessly, "Sigh, there’s no intrigue in our small clinic. The director is usually busy and hardly has any free time. But she’s very kind to people, so you won’t be treated unfairly here." Hearing Alice, Nelson smiled and repeatedly agreed, saying,
"I believe the director must have a good personality, that’s why I came to this clinic, hoping to learn something from her." "Stealing skills?" Alice looked at Nelson with a wary look and said, "I can’t believe a foreigner like you is interested in the director’s medical skills. Well, it’s possible.
"There’s actually a job at our position that requires dealing with the director. But you probably can’t handle it."
"What kind of talk is that?" Nelson scolded Alice with a glance, noticing her blushing face. He confidently replied, there’s no medical work that I, Nelson Powell, can’t do."
Seeing his confident appearance, Alice was skeptical and said, "If you can do it, then come with me." After a while, Alice brought Nelson to the medicinal herb room. As soon as they entered, he couldn’t help but cover his nose and mouth, his brows furrowed.
Seeing him like this, Alice shook her head and said, "You must be some rich young master from a family. There are no easy positions in our clinic." Saying this, Alice took out a prescription and handed it to Nelson saying, "This is the prescription from the clinic director. You need to correctly identify the medicinal herbs according to the contents written, on it. As for the medicinal herbs in front of you... You should recognize them all, right?"
After Nelson left, only Alex and Claire remained in the office. Claire stared at Alex without blinking, murmuring. "What exactly are you planning? It’s really hard to figure out."
He had a faint smile on his lips as he walked over and sat on the desk in front of Claire. He looked down at her and said, "Don’t you want the benefits that come to you? Isn’t it time for you to pay me back? Or is there a secret between you and Nelson that you’re afraid I’ll find out?"
Claire’s face darkened, her eyes showing displeasure. "If you don’t believe me, no matter how many times I say it, you won’t believe me. I’m not afraid of Nelson, I just think you two are causing trouble in front of me!" Claire said, looking at Alex with deep eyes.
Claire felt annoyed as she looked into Alex’s eyes. Recently, she felt that the relationship between her and Alex had become closer. But in just a few days, it had turned into a mess again. He was still so dominant, and once he had made up his mind about something, he wouldn’t change his mind easily.
Claire didn’t want to argue with him anymore, so she lowered her head and said softy, "Forget it, whatever you want to do, just don’t affect my work." Alex reached out and pinched her chin, forcing her to look up at him.
"I never give my opponents any chance, and it’s the same with rivals in love. If you drive him away, he will give up his feelings for you? No, he won’t. I will make him thoroughly understand that he has no chance of winning against me."
Upon hearing this, Claire narrowed her beautiful eyes and smiled faintly, asking, "Can I understand this as your possessiveness towards me?"
Upon hearing this, Alex relaxed his brows and leaned in close to Claire’s ear, whispering, You’re wrong. I am exercising my sovereignty"
Claire’s body trembled violently, struggling, but to no avail. Breathless, her brain went blank, with only her body’s instinctive reaction. After a long while, their lips parted. She gasped for fresh air, her lips swollen. Alex looked at Claire with a strong sense of aggression, saying, "I don’t mind continuing for a few more years. Claire, accept your fate"
Faced with his dominance, Claire’s resistance was like hitting a rock with an egg, futile She nodded and obediently said, "Okay I will listen to you." seeing this, Alex’s smile widened, and he reached out to stroke her silky hair, saying, "Good girl."
For the next half month, Claire continued to go to the Powell family in the morning to treat Mr. Neville as usual. Since arriving at the medical clinic in the western suburbs, Nelson had become much quieter. Every day, she immersed herself in identifying medicinal herbs. For a few rare days, Claire enjoyed some peace and quiet, spending time happily with Alex. Before they knew it, Mr. Neville’s condition had improved, and he was able to try standing up from his wheelchair and doing some rehabilitation exercises.
Overjoyed, Neville had a team of decorators from the Powell family group come to renovate the medical clinic in the western suburbs. Claire had no say in the matter and could only silently accept his kindness. News of Mr. Powell’s recovery at the medical clinic in the western Medical clinic quickly spread throughout the city, attracting many patients and even wealthy elderly people from prestigious families who came for medicine and recuperation.
The clinic’s profits soared, and they were soon able to pay off the debt owed to Alex However, Claire became busier as she had to personally attend to each patient. She was too busy to even think about clearing the accounts. Alex never mentioned it again, as if he had forgotten about the debt.
Time passed quietly, and Claire thought that life would continue to be peaceful. However, one day, Alex received a phone call informing him that his grandfather was critically ill. His face turned dark, and after hanging up the phone, he Claire didn’t care about the other patients who hadn’t been diagnosed yet. She quickly took off her coat and followed him, saying, "Wait, I’ll go with you!"
Although the situation was sudden and she didn’t understand what had happened, she knew some medical skills and might be able to help. Alex stopped and looked at her. After his eyes flickered a few times, he said, "Okay, come with me."
City A Central Hospital.
Dozens of black-clad bodyguards guarded the special care ward where Miller’s grandfather was located, all arranged by Alex. Since Elder master Miller had an accident, Alex had sent people to guard his ward and did not allow anyone with an unknown identity to enter, for fear that someone with ill intentions might harm his life.
Jack was under his supervision and had no chance to harm anyone. But how, his grandfather was in trouble. Claire followed Alex’s footsteps and arrived at the ward. However, she was stopped by the black-clad bodyguards when she was about to enter. Alex turned around and said coldly, "Let her in."
After getting his permission, Claire entered the ward. Elder Master Miller lay on the big bed in the special care ward, relying on a ventilator to sustain his life. He looked weak and could die at any moment. Claire quickly approached and put her hand on Elder Master Miller’s pulse.
After a moment, her face turned pale and she looked at Alex, saying, "How could this happen? What medicine did Grandfather take? He had heart failure and was unable to consume a large dose of medication. It must have been a medication error that caused the old man’s critical condition."
After speaking, Claire quickly took out a silver needle and inserted it into several acupoint. At the same time, the heart rate on the electrocardiogram next to the old man’s bed suddenly increased. Alex’s pupils shrank. Before he could be surprised, Claire urged him
"Hurry, the medication that the old man must take now needs to be cleaned up. I can’t do it alone. Call someone quickly!"
Alex immediately called two or three doctors and asked them to assist Claire in treating the old man. Soon, two or three doctors rushed in.
"What are you doing there? Quickly move away from the bed and don’t touch him"
