Hidden Flash Marriage: Love Me Back, Mr CEO

The drive back to Magnificent Residential Area was silent. The sun had already set.

Mia’s mind trailed back to what happened in the police station, and her heart warmed up instantly. No one had ever stood up for her like the man did back there in her entire life.

And to think he had the policemen locked up… For what-five hours?! Just for her… Her cheeks heated up at once, turning red.

But then, was it all for her? Or did he go over and do those things because of his debit card? Mia’s face fell.

“You’re not hurt anywhere, are you?” Shawn’s cold voice jolted the girl out of her thoughts.

She shook her head, “N-no.”

Just then, something flashed through her eyes, and realization hit her. She hadn’t paid the hospital bills yet. Her eyes widened in horror.

“Please, can you drive straight to HK Hospital?” she quickly asked Lucas, urgency written all over her face.

Lucas glanced at his boss through the rearview mirror, and the man nodded his head in approval. He immediately switched lanes, putting a call across to the vans trailing behind them, ordering the guys to return home first.

Shortly after, they arrived at the hospital. Mia quickly scampered down from the luxurious car.

“I’ll be right back.” Without waiting for a response, she left.

When she arrived at the payment counter, the billing representative was shocked to see that the girl had returned again.

How was she able to make it out of the police station alive? Didn’t they take her away a while ago? Was she not found guilty of theft? Various thoughts ran through the lady’s mind.

But shortly afterwards, her gaze shifted and landed on the man behind the girl. She froze.

Although she usually only saw the man on TV, she knew clearly who he was. Assistant Lucas, the famous personal assistant of the CEO of Beats Corporations.

What was he doing here? And why was he accompanying the thief? The billing representative was suddenly alarmed. Did that mean that the lady was related to CEO Shawn?

She was doomed. She immediately broke out in cold sweats.

“Please, take the card,” Lucas urged, smiling at the flabbergasted woman.

Mia was surprised to see that Lucas followed her. Her mouth opened in bewilderment. Was this the demigod’s doing?

Lucas beamed a smile at her.

Shawn knew that Mia might encounter a problem again if she went alone, so he sent Lucas to accompany her.

“Ye-yes, Sir.” Trembling, the billing representative collected the card from Mia, bowing.

The authority of Assistant Lucas was indirectly the authority of CEO Shawn. His presence there signified the presence of the CEO.

The billing representative eyed Mia from beneath her thick eyelashes and thought, what relationship did the girl have with Shawn to the extent of him giving her his debit card. She must be really important to him.

Mia inputted the pin, and the transaction went through in no time.

Before she left, she smiled a small smile at the representative. “Goodbye, and thank you.”

“No, thank you, Ma’am.” The woman quickly handed the debit card back to her and also gave her the receipt of her payment, bowing really low.

“Then.” Mia lowered her head politely and urged Lucas for them to be on their way.

But before they left, Lucas glanced at the name tag on the billing representative’s chest.

He smiled. If only she knew that she would soon be fired for merely doing her job.

The duo returned back to the car, and Lucas drove smoothly onto the busy road.

Again, the car remained quiet.

“Did you get it?” Shawn’s cold voice broke the silence.

“Yes, Sir. Rose Evans.” His assistant responded.

Immediately, the CEO picked up his phone and dialed Dr. Alfred’s number directly.

“Yes. I’d like you to fire one Rose Evans in your hospital. Yes, thank you.”

He hung up.

After the call, Dr. Alfred, who was currently checking in on a VVIP patient with his assisting doctors and medical students, furrowed his brows.

He was surprised. CEO Shawn had never asked for that kind of favor from him before. Who was the person, and what wrong did she do to the CEO?

Dr. Alfred turned to face his direct assistant, “Find out about one Rose Evans who works in this hospital.”

“Right away, Sir.”

Dr. Alfred was a medical director at HK Hospital and one of the highest-paid professionals in the medical industry. Therefore, he couldn’t possibly know the names of all the employees, let alone a front desk cashier.

“Sir, there’s indeed someone.” Dr. Alfred’s assisting doctor had just gotten off the phone with the Human Resources Department.

“She works on the ground floor as a billing representative, and she’s currently on duty. Do you need me to send for her, Sir?”

“Oh, no.” Doctor Alfred shook his head negatively.

He wondered what the person had done to deserve the wrath of CEO Shawn.

Anyway, that wasn’t his business.NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Shrugging his shoulders, he walked out of the private ward, with his subordinates trailing after him.

As they were about to enter the next ward, “give me a second.” Dr. Alfred said to his subordinates and headed straight to his office.

He picked up the telephone receiver, “connect me to the payment counter.”

A few seconds later, the call was diverted.

“This is Rose Evans, right?” He inquired.

Pause.

“Good.” The next second, he added, “you’re fired. Report to the Human Resources Department immediately for your dismissal letter.”

Without giving the person on the other side of the line a chance to speak, Dr. Alfred replaced the telephone receiver.

Since CEO Shawn contacted him personally for the task, he had to carry it out himself.

Now that the job was done, it was time to get back to work. Dr. Alfred walked out of his office.

Due to the heavy traffic on the road, CEO Shawn and his wife spent roughly one hour on the road before they finally arrived home.

“Go inside and have the maids tend to you. You must be tired,” Shawn said to Mia after they stepped down from the car.

The girl nodded meekly and entered the house. Shawn stayed behind with Lucas, watching as the girl walked away.

She looked so small.

Lucas glanced at his boss’s face, “Sir, do you need me to find out what Madam went to the hospital for?” he asked.

“Don’t pry into her privacy.” The CEO’s cold response caught Lucas off guard.

He was taken aback and rendered completely speechless. Pry into her privacy? Who had been ordering him to run a background check on the Madam? Was it not him?

‘I was only trying to help.’

Lucas thought the CEO would be interested in knowing what his wife had gone to the hospital to do… He had no idea that the man would just…

“It’s late. Go home.” With that, Shawn walked away into the mansion.

Lucas simply bowed and said, “Goodnight, Sir.”

He handed the car key over to the nearest guard and left the mansion.

Shawn headed straight to his room after entering the house. He took a quick shower, and after he was done, he wore his robe and sat on his bed.

He picked up his phone and took a look at the debit alert he had received when the girl used the card a while ago.

Although the money withdrawn from the account was a measly amount compared to the whole amount of money in it, Shawn found himself wondering what the girl had used the money for.

Was she ill? Or did she have a sick family member in the hospital?

Despite him telling Lucas off about invading the girl’s privacy, he was eager to know what was going on. But the girl wouldn’t appreciate her privacy being invaded. He had already intruded enough. No one liked their privacy being invaded, especially by strangers. And that’s exactly what Shawn was to the girl-a stranger.

Shawn’s thoughts shifted to another matter. All this time, he had thought she was a gold digger, completely misunderstanding her… He had to make it up to her.

She had already gone through a lot-losing her mother, losing her boyfriend to someone who was meant to be her best friend. And to make matters worse, her father had disowned her because of him. How much worse could it get? He had misjudged her completely.

Shawn now realized that he and the girl seemed to be alike.

Sighing, he set his phone aside and wondered what the girl was doing right now.
