Substitute Bride For Young Master
Chapter 79's
“Director, can I help you?”
The rebuke of a nurse made Raymond aware of his daydream. He nodded slowly and left the place.
What was raging inside his head at the moment, he could not decipher them one by one. His soul was slightly shaken. The pain in her hand was no longer too much as her heart throbbed more pain when she saw Lorie being taken away by another man.
With a staggered step Raymond returned to his study. What happened to him at this moment, he himself did not understand. Hasn't he been looking for Lorie just to apologize and compensate her for her negligence at the Amber Hotel? Then why now ... why .. ah, why does it feel so painful?
Raymond was stuck in his chair. There were so many questions flashing in his head and it made him almost crazy.
Is the baby his? If so, why wouldn't Lorie admit it? If not, when was he .. wasn't that the first time? Did she go straight away and sleep with her lover after that then .. pregnant?
It just doesn't make sense. But didn't the man himself say it was their baby?
“Argh!” Raymond groaned and wanted to punch whatever was in front of him.
Did I just go and ask the obstetrician?
As the director of that hospital, of course he had the authority to ask. However, Raymond immediately shook his head violently to get rid of that thought. He does not want to confuse personal affairs with work. It was against his principles and conscience. It's also unethical.
After all, gestational age is calculated from the date of the end of menstruation, not from the date of doing so.
Raymond suddenly got goosebumps. If he remembered that he was drunk, he must have hurt Lorie accidentally. By calling Alice's name throughout their romance for example. Which woman is not angry and is treated like that? Even if it was returned to him, he would have gone berserk if the woman he slept with called out another man's name upon getting his release.
Raymond finally reached the final thought that he was a jerk and deserved to be treated by Lorie. In any case, Lorie was the one who was aggrieved due to the events of that time. So if now Lorie wants to repay him by ignoring him like this, then all she can do is accept it without refutation.
The first question was answered, now the second celebration: why does his heart hurt so much?
Very painful tightness. Even finding Alice sleeping with the old man didn't make her this sick. At that moment all he felt was disappointment and annoyance. Disappointed that Alice betrayed him, and upset that she was trying to frame him.
“Excuse me, Director Dawson. Here's the financial report you requested.”
Raymond turned to the door when he heard the voice of a woman who served as his secretary. He nodded at a glance and said, “Put it on the table.”
“Good.”
The woman did as Raymond told her to, then went out and closed the door. His superior appearance looked a little messy, but he did not dare to ask more. Could it be because last week's events still upset him?
Yeah, that must be so.
Who is not upset when intercepted by bandits, robbed and beaten to a pulp? All the hospital employees were so shocked to see their director being taken by ambulance to the ER. Unfortunately until now the bandits were not caught, not even the tracks were sniffed. Is that why the scraper got upset?
The secretary shook his shoulders and returned to his desk. He did not want to be confused by that incident.
Inside the room, Raymond stared at the pile of files on his desk with an unfocused look. There was one question that kept spinning like a hurricane, ravaging its head once more.
Is he in love with Lorie?
Why did the presence of the woman greatly affect her feelings?
Was this a pure feeling or just because the woman was the first time for him?
Raymond growled in despair and leaned over the table. How do I get answers to all these questions?
