Ambroise Langlery walked throughout the slide door of the hospital , accompanied by three soldiers and his lieutenant .
When they arrive in front of Elizabeth's office , Ambroise demands them to wait .
" chief ? Do i knock ?" Lieutenant Jasper asked , he was confused to why their chief asked them to wait .
He held his hand dismissively and jasper pulled away . Suddenly the door was open and doctor Ramsey came out .
Coming eye to eye with Ambroise , he was shocked
" chief !" Banner stated , surprised to see the man in front of him .
" Banner " Ambroise said back .
There was a shadow of a woman standing by the door frame behind Banner , and Ambroise had noticed her immediately.
" Princess Elizabeth " he bowed respectfully.
Elizabeth felt her heart do a back flip at his voice when he called her name , it felt sweet and pure not like when her husband would say it .
" chief Jasper- i mean Ambroise " Elizabeth corrected herself before leaning into a curtsy so low to hide the blush of embarrassment that crept on her face .
Ambroise rolled his eyes . This was the first time anyone miss-called him .
Jasper on the other side did not know how to react , this was his first time feeling embarrassed.
" i will take my leave doctor . Chief and lieutenant " Banner looked at Ambroise and gave him an eye signal .
Ambroise nodded and went inside Elizabeth office .
" the room " Ambroise stopped when he saw how the curtains were lazily half opened . " is depressed " he pulls the curtains all the way down , eliminating the sun light deeply into the room .
" ow " Elizabeth instinctively hid her eyes behind her elbow as she was instantly blinded by the strong sunlight .
" this place doesn't look too fitted for a princess " Ambroise commented dusting his hands off and making his way around Elizabeth.
" you think i like butterflies and everything pink and girlish ?" Elizabeth rolled her eyes as she rounded her desk sitting at her chair while Ambroise sat from across of her .
He chuckled shaking his head . " unbelievable. I guess not all princesses are the same "
" so . I think you have already met my step-sister " Elizabeth started organizing her desk , trying to occupy her hands as she did not know how to sit them straight for more than 2 seconds .
" yep " he popped his lips looking directly at Elizabeth, studying her face .
" and you're soon to marry her " Elizabeth felt her heart sink , she felt that the world was going upside down . Two people deserved one an other , but got two opposites .
Bianca wayn deserved to have a man like Shane August , but She for sure knew that Ambroise would never look at her the same way .
Elizabeth knew she was taking a liking to Ambroise .
" until it's official, i do not like to be titled to her and the royal family , i am my own Name " Ambroise said confidently, making Elizabeth feel her heart light up in her chest .
" okay , good .... ah" She pinched the edge of her nose before bringing a stack of papers on the table . " about the Accident "
" yes , how are the two patients " Ambroise said .
Elizabeth was not very happy about that certain topic .
" unfortunately , they couldn't make it half throughout the surgery . They took them to the decomposing department this early morning " Elizabeth was switched back to her professional self .
" we will have results by noon , i will deliver them to you then "
" okay " Ambroise agreed .
" do you need help with something else ?"
" no thank you , you have done enough " Elizabeth gathered the papers in a file and handed them to him with shaky hands .
" just find that asshole and bring him to justice "
Ambroise saw the uncertainty in her face but still reached for the document .
" what makes you so sure that it was a one person work ?"
"Because the two body have the same exact scars , seems to me that they both struggled against him . Body A must've tried to black his vision from behind but he kicked her in the face causing her to fall on her back , there's an open wound on her back . Body B was struggling beneath him , she tried scratching his face but he was quick to hold her hands above her head as she continued scratching the ground , her nails were all broken the first time i saw her , she also had a black circle in her left thigh and couple of love bites between her breasts and the side of her ribcage " Elizabeth explained what she saw when she was taking the check-up yesterday .
" you also mentioned that there was an open scar by the side of her stomach . What do you think ? " Ambroise asked
" he must have cut her accidentally when he was trying to pin her down with ropes " Elizabeth responded , re-playing the scene right in front of her eyes .
Ambroise seemed to be surprised by how well she explained . Nodding in anticipation, he stood up .
" i think this is enough for me " Ambrose seemed disgusted , he couldn't even contemplate the scene the way she described it .
With His furrowed brow and confused look , Elizabeth thought that he looked very amiable right now , though his lost eyes were full of hatred , they still looked sweet and soft for her .
She automatically stood up after him , walking him to the door .
" well Doctor , Thank you for taking up your time to sit with me " Ambroise sounded disappointed that it had to end this soon .
" no Thank you chief " Elizabeth said softly , a state of being flustered as she nodded at him .
Ambroise was glad to see that Elizabeth , for what it's worth , was feeling better .
When he bid his goodbye and left , the room suddenly tightened around Elizabeth , there was a much different aura from when Ambroise was here .
Elizabeth's felt her heart flutter as she imagined his face again , but that image soon was gone when the door was harshly slammed .
" what did he want from you ?" Shane August fastened his steps toward Elizabeth. Gripping her by the arm , he twirled her toward the window while her back faced him .
She was scared that he may do something badly to her .
" he- he was here for an investigation " Elizabeth beamed , terrified of Shane .
" since when does the chief attend civil investigations? Tell me Eli , what is your business with him " Shane Asked again
" i swear , you can see for your self " Elizabeth struggled with her words as she directed him to her desk .
He let go of her and she immediately kneeled to the lowest drawer , bringing the papers out .
Through greeted teeth , she said .
" chief was here for business, nothing more and nothing less "
Shane scoffed mockingly
" Ambroise Langlery has people to do this kind of things for him , his a commander , he commands people , that's his job "
Elizabeth , still in a kneeling position, crossed her arms puffing warm breath .
" if you think that me , Elizabeth Wayn , will cheat on her husband then you are wrong " she dared him .
He looked down at her . With a sheepish smirk , he straightened his posture and said .
" then I , Shane August will not divorce Elizabeth Wayn "
Elizabeth eyes widened at his confession . She abruptly stood up .
" w-what ?" She choked on her tears .
" do you really think i'll give you that kind of freedom?" He laughed . " you must think i'm either easy to fool or an actual . idiot "
" Shane , you were the one who wanted a divorce in the first place " Elizabeth felt her heart limb in her chest , she was no longer happy .
" Eli Eli Eli " he repeated , as if tasting her name . " i care about you " Shane Walks around her desk with open arms while Elizabeth ran toward the other side .
" you? After all this affairs and isolations , a year of harsh treatments , you care about me ?" Elizabeth exclaimed in frustration, her hands squeezed into a fest .
Shane was furious , his head was boiled with anger but he held his tongue . He felt sad to hear her say such things .
Elizabeth took his silence as her response and she immediately rushed out of the office .
When she reached the first floor , she saw that Chief Ambroise was sitting by the reception. His eyes were concentrated on the newspaper in his hands . Elizabeth immediate felt safe .
What is he still doing here . She thought as she slowly made her way toward him .
When he felt her presence , without glancing at her , he smiled . " did your husband tell you about tomorrow's cruise party ? "
Elizabeth narrowed her brows at him and came to a hard stop .
" what cruise ?"
He looked up at her from his journal .
" the one the royal family is hosting , your father wants you there " he said in confusion .
" someone shoot me " Elizabeth murmured under her breath but he was able to catch her every word .
" sure , would you like to be shot in the head ?" Ambroise joked , reaching for his armory pocket .
Elizabeth nodded .
" you weren't supposed to hear that " she shyly looked away .
" one thing the military taught me , that i should always keep my ears checked " he wears one of his charming smiles before standing up .
" anyway , are you off work ?" He then asked sneaking his hands into his pants pockets .
Elizabeth did not know what to say . She looked around hoping that Shane August is not watching .
" chief-" he cut her off
" don't start with excuses, it was just a question " . Ambroise is seeing through her like an open book .
" i was going to say that My husband is here , even if i was off he will escort me back home " she looked down at her shoes feeling embarrassed
Ambroise wanted the ground to swallow him whole , he did not know why he even asked her such question .
" ah yes , your husband " he was bitter when he said ' husband '
Ambroise took a last long lingering look at Elizabeth, studying her like it's the last time he will see her .
" i will go now , until we meet again " he bowed respectfully before he walked out of the hospital .
Elizabeth watched his back as he disappeared slowly into the daylight . She heaved an aggravated sigh before heading outside as well .
