I paced the room not minding that instead of pacing I'm more like limping across the room. And it's getting more painful every second, so I sat down on the bed and fumed silently.
The darker colors of the room no longer making me feel suffocated as I felt anger suffocating me instead.
Nobody and I mean nobody has ever made so mad like this guy. He is so annoying and so damn smug about everything.
And in the midst of my inner turmoil I realized I don't even know who he is or whatever his name is. I don't even know whose house I am gonna be staying for the next few days.
I don't know why I accepted his condition, why I even considered it. I was always clear headed, even in the worst of situations but today I completely lost it.
After a while of sitting at the corner of the bed I started feeling lightheaded and drained, so I fell back on the bed as I felt tired to move anymore.
A light knock sounded, but I didn't reply as I was in no condition to do so, the door opened inside to reveal the women and the man from earlier walking inside.
"Good Morning, Miss?" the man along with the older lady who first came when I woke up and then rushed out before I could have said anything .
I stared at them waiting for something before realizing a second later that he is asking me for my name, "Wu Tian" I replied.
"Well Good Morning, Miss Tian, I am the doctor that Wei ...!" before the doctor could complete his sentence the older lady lightly elbowed him as if stopping him from saying anything further. And the good doctor that he is shut up, smiled and changed the topic.
"And she is the housekeeper Ming Xi." I nodded at her. "So as I was saying that I am the one who saw to your injuries last night. I hope you don't mind but I took your blood for some sample as I realized you have got injuries and you are bruised at a lot of places. Your situation required me to run a few tests to see if there are internal injuries or anything. I hope you don't mind that we have your sample without your consent. It was totally professional I assure you." he reassured me.
"Yeah, yeah whatever it's okay." I couldn't care less about the reports as I have got bigger problems than my health ones. I have currently got no job and all of my hardwork that I have worked for years have been credited to someone else.
I am injured, bruised, jobless, boyfriend less and almost murdered in the mere span of three days. So I do have bigger problems to consider than these.
The doctor has continued speaking while I zoned out for a second, "...And about your current situation I have prescribed some medicines which you have to take regularly to reduce swelling and the bruises. The injury on your hand would require dressing for a few days too." My attention fell on the white dressing wrapped on my hand which now I feel throbbing lightly.
He finished speaking and I ignored everything else and only asked, "When would I be able to leave?" I looked at both of them waiting for either of them to reply to me.
"That ..."Both of them stood silently for a few minutes before the older lady replied, "That depends on my boss. He will tell you when you are allowed..uhm...I mean able to leave." The glare that I threw at her was something.
"But I thought you were the doctor" I threw this at the doctor but he countered back, "And he is the one who gives me salary. So yeah it is him who will decide and not me."
"That's absurd and absolute nonsense who is he to decide when can I leave or not?" I exclaimed.
They both didn't replied anything, the doctor took a quick check up of me, changed my dressing and gave me a few medicines to eat, all the while I was throwing every bad word I know at their boss in my mind.
"Take care, Miss." They both left, closing the door on the way out.
I snorted at what he said and moved back in bed, completely ignoring both of them.
'Then I better rest to be out of here as fast I can!' I got under the covers as I felt the medicine kicking in and I felt myself falling deep into the sleep.
The darkness welcoming me, cocooning me until I felt a dark hand shooting up and snatching me in it's clutches.
I screamed and screamed but no one heard.
.....
Wei Jianglin's POV:
"Her vitals seems okay and her swelling will go down in few days while the bruises will also be gone by the end of the week. The injury on her hand and her feet will require sometime before they are healed completely and If her reports also come normal then she is clear to go by tomorrow." Zhi Jiang reported.
I nodded at him and he dismissed himself out of the study where I sat, relieved and fuming mad at the girl and at her eagerness to leave.
I was supposed to stay away and let Ming Xi and Zhi Jiang look after her and would have asked her to leave after making sure she is alright. But I thought with the amount of injuries she had she wouldn't wake up this soon and so I went to check up on her quietly, didn't think I would find her awake, standing there in my hallway looking fragile but beautiful at the same time.
But then I heard her asking about the exit and I snapped.
I didn't thought that she would be up this early and actually giving my housekeeper and my personal doctor hell, to get out of here as fast as she could.
Then why at the very last moment I myself asked her to stay, without even knowing who she is or her name.
I don't know what took over me, but I panicked and put up that ridiculous situation.
I also don't know what is it about her that has intrigued me, but there is something, something familiar and different about her. I felt myself feel obsessed about something in so long that it made me put out a crazy stipulation.
I just didn't wanted her to leave and at the moment that was all I could think of to stop her from leaving.
I tried to get back to my work, trying not to think about the girl in my room. The way I saw her, I was mind blown by her beauty. She looked beautiful that I felt something caving in my heart. It was painful to the point that I had to do something about it. So I couldn't stop myself from putting up that proposition.
I know what I did was impulsive and dangerous, even for me, but I just couldn't let her leave like that. I had to do something and so I did.
To stop my thoughts from going any farther, I called my assistant to ask about the information that I asked him to look for.
"Sir, I have the file with me. I'll be there shortly."
I hanged up the phone as impatience took over me to see the file and finally learn everything about her.
So I sat back and waited for my assistant to arrive.
.....
Here you go....
Enjoy!
