Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker -
Chapter 100
Lauren's POV
"Is it because you already have a partner?" Jason gave me a complicated look, "I really wanna know who gets to be with such a wonderful and beautiful woman like you."
The way he eyed me up and down got me alert. I didn't answer that question and dropped a question instead, "What does this have to do with you? All I know is that I'm not interested in you at all and you can stop wasting your time on me." "I see," Jason stared at me for a while and sneered, "but you're wrong about one thing, Lauren, all the time I spent on you is worth it."
"I can guarantee you that you're not gonna get the answer you want," I said coldly and put my foot down.
"If you don't like flowers, I'll get you something else next time," Jason didn't care about what I just said and continued with a disgusting smile, "don't jump to conclusions like this. Just think about it, Miss Lauren. I'm more than capable enough to give you all the help you need. Catch you later."
This time he didn't give me a chance to say no and walked out of the room with his gigantic bouquet of roses. He didn't throw them away and gave them away to the staff and patients he met in the hallway one by one, which really gave those girls a good impression and think he was such a charming gentleman.
Mila snorted with contempt and slammed the door hard, which stopped those nurses in the hallway from giggling and made them go back to work.
"I need to put up a sign at the door forbidding this man to come in ever again," Mila rolled her eyes and dialed the intercom. I thought she was going to do that and wanted to stop her but then I found out she was just telling the staff to disinfect this hallway. "I don't like his smell."
"Me either," I agreed with her, "you can tell other people that I'm hired as a family doctor now and won't be in the hospital for a long time. That will keep that dude out of here for a while."
"Okay," Mila nodded, "but I don't think he's gonna give up so soon. It looks like he's obsessed with you and he's not like a normal person who would understand the words, no, thanks. I know what kind of man he is. The harder you push him away, the more he wants to have you. Based on what he just said, I can tell he's possessive and pretentious. Most importantly, his family got his back."
I frowned as I heard Mila's words.
If he really was the man at the Moondance Ball, Mila was definitely right about him. I still remember his creepy gaze and how it sent shivers down my spine. He was like a growling wolf staring at me in the night. To Jason, I was his prey.
"I'll try to avoid him," I shrugged, and to be honest, I didn't want to have anything to do with a guy like Jason anyway, "a playboy wouldn't waste all his time on one woman who doesn't even like him."
"You're right. After all, your partner is much better than him," Mila winked at me and then asked, "why didn't you tell him you already have a partner."
"He'll just think that I'm lying if I don't tell him who that is."
For some reason, I felt it would not be a good idea to let Jason know I was Victor's partner and doctor. At least not before Vicor had his surgery and fully recovered.
I didn't know where that idea came from. Maybe it was just out of instinct.
"When are you guys gonna announce your relationship?" Mila started focusing on my relationship with Victor, "dating the alpha of the Midnight Claws Tribe must be fun. If you guys go public with your relationship, people will be shocked, especially Jason and your half-sister who thinks she's the luckiest girl on the planet.
Oh, I think Manuel and Susan are gonna be even more surprised and Mrs. Susan might even come to your door and beg to fix your relationship," Mila laughed, "I can't wait to see the look on their faces."
"I don't think you're gonna get what you want," I told her the whole story of my grandma going to the Blanco Estate on her own, "I've just taught that old lady and her precious granddaughter a lesson and she must hate my guts right now."
Mila was stunned, "Oh my God! Why didn't you bring me with you?! What a pity!"
"I'll bring you next time. Now, let's get down to business."
"Victor's surgery? I've checked that a million times. I gotta be careful now since he's such a powerful man and now he's become your partner..."
"I'm not talking about that. Reinforce the protection of the ICU floor and don't let any irrelevant people in. And remind Richard to stay cautious during Victor's surgery."
When it came to business, Mila became serious and said, "Are you worried about Jason or Manuel?"
I shook my head and wasn't sure why I was so restless and anxious right now, "No, just to be safe."
"Got it," Mila said, "but the Blancos aren't that reckless and I don't think they'll have time for this. I heard that stupid bitch, Janice just got some trouble with her marriage."
"I thought what they have is true love, isn't it?"
"That depends on what leverage she has," Mila snorted, "the Lunarko Tribe doesn't like her in the first place. Now she can't bring them any properties or benefits and she's not even his mate. Do you really think this marriage is gonna last? Michael is definitely not gonna be a loyal husband."
If Michael was loyal to his partner, he wouldn't have been seduced by Janice and had a baby with her. Part of the reason the Lunarko Tribe agreed to switch the bribe was that Janice was also alpha Manuel's daughter and could also be beneficial to their tribe. Until that conference, they had forgotten that I was different from Janice at the beginning.
No matter how hard Janice and Lola had been trying for all those years, there could be only one heir and it had to be me.
Mila sneered, "They must have a lot on their plate."
"Let them be. I have nothing to do with the Blanco family now," I smiled without a care.
I didn't care if Janice and Michael could hold their wedding or if Manuel was bold enough to give Janice his shares as a wedding gift. As long as they didn't mess with me, I wouldn't mess with them and everything about them had nothing to do with me. After I got what belonged to my mother and me back, I didn't wanna have anything to do with them anymore.
"Yeah, the most important thing right now is your partner's surgery."
"You're right," I took off my white coat and changed into my cashmere jacket, "don't forget to talk to Richard."
Mila waved her hand and said, "Okay okay. Why don't you go talk to him? It's much more convenient." "You guys are much closer."
Before Mila got mad, I left my office with a big pile of documents in my arms. As I put the files in the back seat, I saw somebody pass through the parking lot gate and disappear before I could get a closer look. I didn't pay much attention to it. Maybe it was just a random stranger because that didn't look like someone that I know.
In Victor's estate
"You're back," Victor rolled his wheelchair towards me and reached out his hands to take the files in my hands, "you should've brought your assistant."
"No need for that," I pushed Victor into the living room and squatted down to check his legs, "there are only two days before the surgery. Are you nervous?"
Victor said in a deep voice, "I can't wait to go running in the forest with you."
