Becoming Alpha’s Personal Caretaker
Chapter 102

Lauren's POV

The day before his surgery, Victor already checked into the hospital. And I couldn't hide what happened with Jason from him anymore and I didn't want to do that either. The only reason I didn't tell him before was that I didn't want Victor to worry about that and I thought I wouldn't see Jason's face ever again. But he just showed up again and again in the hospital. If it were like that, Victor would probably meet him in the hospital and the trouble couldn't be avoided then even if I didn't tell him now. "That filthy bastard," Victor said resentfully.

"You know him?"

"My mother has something to do with the Andrews family," Victor said, "I'll send some guardians to protect you. They'll only listen to you and do whatever you tell them to do. If that guy dares to come to you again, you can let them teach him a lesson." "You're not worried about the Andrews family?" I raised my eyebrows.

"I got your back and you can do whatever you want."

I giggled, "Okay, I guess. Just keep them on the low."

I really felt awkward at the idea of me being surrounded by a bunch of people every time I went out.

"They'll stay invisible while they're watching your back," Victor said and he was a bit surprised that I agreed to this, "I thought you would've said no."

"I only say no to overprotection. Of course I'll accept protection when it's necessary," I explained, "and if I say no to you, will you calm down and get ready for your surgery? I'm your main surgeon for your surgery and I gotta think about my patient."

I could never let Jason ruin this surgery just because I hid this from Victor. I didn't think it was necessary to tell Victor about Jason but Jason's recent attempts worried me. Now I found out that he and Victor knew each other but they didn't seem to be happy about each other's presence.

"I must make sure this surgery will be a success, Victor."

Victor said softly, "I believe in you. We're still going to visit your grandmother."

Hearing that, I couldn't help laughing and turned to look at Victor, "I heard that you've already been searching for the gift for my grandma. Is that true? And now you just told Richard to put that at the top of his agenda."

Victor seemed a little awkward. It would blow his mind if he found out Richard directly asked Mila and me what kind of gift my grandma would like. To be honest, Victor and Richard were very much alike in a way. Sometimes they were all delightfully clumsy. Maybe it was because I was laughing too hard, Victor's eyes darkened and sneered at me. I sensed the tension but he quickly pulled me closer and made me lean on his chest as he kissed me on the lips.

Since we were at the VIP ward, there were only the bodyguards outside the door and no doctors or nurses walking in the hallway. But I felt like I could still hear their voices and it made me quite nervous and somehow excited. My heart was racing fast and I was glad that I wasn't wearing my white coat and came here as his partner.

"That's enough..." I softly pushed him away, "have a good rest, Victor."

"That's not enough," Victor's eyes glistened like a fierce wolf, "I can hear you saying 'adorable alpha' in your mind."

What?

How was that even possible? We hadn't marked yet and he shouldn't be able to hear my thoughts...

Seeing the mischievous look on his face, I realized he just fooled me. Of course he couldn't hear my thoughts. He was just guessing based on my expression. Just as I was about to pretend to get mad, Victor kissed me harder and took my breath away. The heat was mounting up and I couldn't help moaning and making things even more s****...

Knock knock...

Someone knocked on the door.

"Alpha Victor."

It was Richard!

I jumped up from Victor's hug and checked my clothes and hair hastily. Victor grunted in a husky voice, "Come in."

"Alpha Victor, I've sent the orders as you commanded..." Richard paused and then greeted me with a smile, "nice to see you, Miss Lauren."

"Nice seeing you too," I tried to stay calm and patted Victor's shoulder, "I'll let you guys talk."

"Alpha Victor, these are the materials that you want and about the Parsons district...are you alright? You look awful."

I could tell how confused Richard was when he asked that question and I could imagine the look on Victor's face when he heard him say that. I chuckled and locked eyes with Mila who was enjoying the show at the door. "You're glowing," Mila sneered, "looks like you enjoyed quite a lot."

I raised my eyebrows and said, "You should try it with Richard sometime."

"There's not much I can do about a guy goofy like him."

...

In the night.

As I was driving back to my apartment, I saw somebody I knew when I got off the car. It was Janice.

To be honest, I didn't want to see Janice anymore but she clearly spotted me. She ran to my car and yelled, "Lauren!"

I had to stop walking. For some reason, Janice didn't look as delicate as usual. She used to use light makeup to make people believe what a sweet and innocent girl she was, but now, even the thick foundation couldn't cover her dark circles. She wore bright red lipstick to cover up her tiredness but it looked kind of scary at the night. And she was only wearing a pair of gemstone earrings and nothing else.

"Woah woah woah, did she pawn all her jewels?" Bella said with contempt.

Janice never played the victim when we were alone. She would only show off her expensive jewels that her father or Michael gave her in front of me. So based on her looks, Bella might be right.

But that was none of my business.

I walked past her and wanted to leave.

Janice immediately came up and blocked my way, "Wait, Lauren! Don't you leave!"

I glanced at her shoulder and asked, "The scars are already healed?"

"You!" Janice went mad because I really struck a nerve and she roared, "You bitch! I got a little distracted that day and it was just an accident! You and your wolf are all useless..."

Did she come here in the middle of the night just to tell me this?

Sometimes I really didn't get what Janice was thinking. I rolled my eyes at her and ignored her. I walked right past her toward my apartment but she still wouldn't leave me alone.

"I hate it when you're on your high horse like this. Who do you think you are, Lauren? What makes you think you're better than anyone? Except for your family background, you can't compete with me at all! My wolf is stronger than you and your father and your fiancé all love me more than they love you! I'm the winner here!"

"Since you're the winner, what are you doing here?" I asked indifferently.

Janice didn't know what to say and her face went pale. She completely lost her temper and took it out on me, "You bitch! That day father almost gave the Blanco Group to me! That's mine!"

"It belongs to my mother and me."

"Hahaha," Janice laughed creepily, "your mother? That loser? If it weren't for grandfather, your mother would've been left with nothing! Father told me that he doesn't love that woman at all! His mate? She's just a puppet!"

I couldn't take it anymore and pushed her, "Shut up."

Janice almost fell down but her eyes turned red as she lost her mind. She gave me a wry smile and said, "You really think she committed suicide, you dumbass?"
