Mysterious Mr.Richard

Chapter 2 You're my patient.

Richard raised his head. Then he flung away her wrist. He scanned Pearl's face slowly. His voice were

cold and frightening.

"Do you know how much I hate to see your face?"

Every night, this face showed up in his dreams. Every night! Wasn't that enough? Why did she show

up in front of him now?

Pearl was shocked.

She blankly looked at his cold and disgusted eyes. She suddenly felt thirsty and could not even

breathe.

Yes, he hated her!

She did not want him to see her sadness. So she pretended to be cool and move her eyes to his

hands. She turned back to get some medical tape, trying hard to speak to him with a normal voice.

"You're my patient."

But when she tore off three small section of the tape to fix his needle again, Richard's indifferent voice

rang in her ears with some disgust.

"Get out !"

Her hands frozen. And something in her eyes was quivering. But at last she tried her best to find her

voice. She withdrew her hand and said, "Then, I'll get a nurse to do with it."

"I don't want to say it again." Richard's voice became colder and harsher with pressure.

Instantly, the tension was palpable in the ward .

He felt so sick to see her.

Sadness and bitterness was amounting in her heart, and she could only replied "Okay." She put away

the stethoscope as well as the test report. And she added carefully, "Okay... If you need anything,

please ring the bell ."

In response, she got silence.

The man there zipped his lips. He did not speak a word so that she dared not approach him.

Pearl didn't want to be humiliated again. She turned around trying to escape from this suffocating room.

But just then, the door opened and a clear beautiful voice ran into the room. "Richard... How are you

now?"

Pearl followed the voice. It was Adriana at the door in a white wedding dress.

Adriana was lifting her dress and smiling. But when she saw Pearl, her smile froze.

Earlier, Adriana was selecting and trying some wedding dresses in the fitting room. When the store

assistant suddenly told her that Richard had fainted, she rushed to the hospital without even changing

the dress. But meeting Pearl at the hospital was really unexpected.

What's more, Pearl happened to be Richard's doctor!

Adriana tightened her hands on the dress. Yet, swiftly she still put on a small smile and walked to the

bed to ask, "Pearl? It's you... when were you back?"

"A week ago." Pearl answered truthfully.

Yes, it had been a week since she was sent to this hospital by the headquarters abroad. But

unexpectedly their reunion was in hospital like that.

Adriana's wedding dress make Pearl's heart ache. A trace of embarrassment flashed across her pale

face.

She shoved her red fists back into her pocket and made some room for Adriana.

"Oh, I see." Adriana was taken aback. She checked the silent Richard and turning to Pearl again. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Pearl seemed to be awkward. Immediately, Adriana knew what was going on.

But Adriana pretended as if nothing happened. She sat on the edge of the bed and said softly, "You

scared me, Richard. why did you pass out? "

Pearl stepped back a little. She tried her best to hold herself together and said flatly, "Because Mr.

Zellweger had an acute gastritis. You should pay more attention to his diet in the future. He couldn't

eat too much greasy food and should eat on time."

"In addition..." She paused for she was planning not to say but she could not stop herself, "An irregular

meal habit is the main reason for this disease too."

Richard narrowed his eyes strongly. His eyes grew colder when he glared at her.

An irregular meal habit? Clearly, she remembered that!
