It was already two days since lily have sent the health record of grandpa Brooke to Ashley to check it through.

Ashley has been going through it since then.

It was only this morning She was able to see through it and realised the seriousness of lily grandpa situation

She was a little sad that the grandpa was going through alot alone can't explain to his grandchild for not making her worried and sad

As she stared at report she contemplating on what she should do.

"She should tell lily about her grandpa condition or not ?"she mumbled silently to herself

Lily wedding was just in a few months and didn't think she will be able to handle the news . She was sure that grandpa Brooke want her to get married to see her and she be the happiest bride on the day.

He must have hide his condition purposely

As she continue thinking and taping her office table with a pen absentmindedly

A young man in a white jacket entered and called her only to get no response from her

"Ashley "he called again

"Ashley ...."The man shouted a little louder caught the attention of the now startled Ashley

"Hey,why did you shout my name like that caleb "she asked a little annoyed and start to put the report papers together to seal it back

"Sorry but I have been calling your name for more than five minutes now "he said and glance at the report

"Colorectal cancer "he read out loudly and Ashley glared at him at his trespass and open the drawer and keep the medical report and locked it with code

Caleb realise his mistake and apologies. it was unprofessional of him to peep at others medical records uninvited .

"OK, what bring you here?" She asked glancing up at him

"Am here to tell you that boss said that a big shot will be here by this afternoon and I over heard that it is authur Patrick "he replied and lowered his voice

"And your idol"he added with a teasing smile

"Oh that was a surprise news." She happily smiled back with surprised gaze

She almost jumped up in excitement he was one the biggest reason Ashley become a medical doctor

They have never seen the man, but his name only, was great and well known like no other in the medical institute and in medical world.

He was well known for his greatness in surgery and research.and was name ' miracle doctor'.

He also own many hospitals ,he is one the greatest investor in this hospital that Ashley was working at .

But still it was surprising that he was showing up in their hospital .

"Did you know the reason for his upcoming visit?"She questioned curiously

"Umm..I heard that he will be performing a surgery here and our boss want us to learn and advanced our skills from the operation "he answered honestly

Ashley nodded in understanding

"OK I will be leaving cause i also need to go and prepare before their arrival "he said as he walked back to the office entrance door

"I will so too. thanks for informing me this" Ashley thanks him and start to prepare herself

And at that moment her cell phone ring, she glance at the caller

"lily "she murmured and thinking how to respond when she asked her about the medical report

"Hello Ashley"

"Ashley have you help me to go through it?"

Lily asked softly through the phone

Ashley paused trying to compose a better answer for her

"Umm. ..yes nothing wrong."

"just that let grandpa eat more food and visit him more "

she said simply and lily was surprised and find the result a little unexpected but still believed her.

"OK thanks "she said readly to hang up the phone but was stopped by Ashley voice

"Lily my idol is coming to our hospital today and am so excited "she said changing the topic and continued

"can I come over for a drink later in the night "she asked sweetly but get refused by lily immediately

"No,as a doctor you must not be having hangover often and am happy for you finally meeting your idol "she said like a big sister she was throughly was.

Ashley roll her eyes at unfeeling words

"OK but how about I come to eat homemade pasta made by you huh ..please..." She pleaded childishly

"Ok,let me know when you're coming and come early to join me in the kitchen because Sandra is not around for this week"lily said and agree to Ashley to come over for dinner and they hang up the call

Ashley felt guilty for lie about grandpa Brooke condition but it was for the best
