Trapped with a Doctor

"Angela, what happened to you? You look unhappy." Lucy curiously looked at Angela who was in a low spirit. Angela was always cheerful. She was rarely seen in a bad mood.

Angela shook her head and answered, "I didn't have a good rest last night. Now, I want to go to the changing room and change my clothes first!"

"Don't rush! Angela, have you heard of Nita Zhen?" Lucy stopped her again.

Angela was about to shake her head, but when she understood what Lucy planned to say, she nodded.

"Do you know? Nita will work in our hospital. It is a big news. Have you known it?" This news spread all around their hospital and almost all of them knew it. It seemed like only Angela, who asked for leave in last few days, didn't know it.

Angela looked at Lucy who was very excited and cheerful. She didn't want to hit her good mood so she showed a bit of interest in the conversation and replied, "Really? When will she come to our hospital? Does she work in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department?"

"Yes! It is real! She will come here in the next week! She is an authority and expert on obstetrics and gynecology. She must work in the Obstetrics and Gynecology Department!"

"Well. All right. I know it and I want to go first!" Angela has heard of Nita's name so many times, but she never saw her in person. She was not interested at her except in her ability, which she really admired. It seemed that Angela was uncomfortable, so Lucy didn't bother her this time.

Angela called Nancy when she got into the changing room. Nancy asked for leave today which made Angela upset. She could not tell Nancy about her confusion and annoyance to Arvin's actions. She had to bear this problem alone.

Everything went well at work. Supposedly, Xenia was scheduled to be on duty tonight. However, she had to deal with some family emergency, so she approached Angela and changed shifts with her. Angela had nothing to do at home, so she agreed to stay in the hospital to be on duty.

About 11 o'clock in the evening, almost all the people on night shift have already left. Angela was feeling sleepy as she stayed at the nurse station. "Angela? Angela..."

It seemed like someone was calling her name. Angela opened her eyes and found a man standing in front of her.

After a few seconds, Angela recognized the man who was smiling at her. He was Kent, Arvin's assistant.

"Angela, are you awake?" Angela looked so lovely when she was in a dizzy state. Kent could not help but chuckle at the sight of Angela.

She nodded immediately and tried very hard to open her eyes wide. "Hello, Mr. Jiang!"

Thinking of his reason for coming here, Kent took out an exquisite tote bag and handed it over to Angela. "Mr. Gu wanted to give this to you."

Angela didn't know if she should accept it. She probably knew what was in it.

Last night, Arvin send her a few messages on WeChat. Arvin has already expressed that he would start staying away from her. How could she accept it in this case?

"Thank you, Mr. Jiang, but I couldn't accept this. Please help me return it to Mr. Gu."

Arvin warned Kent of a possibility that Angela might refuse the gift, so he instructed him of what to say to her. "Miss Si, a man must do what he says. Mr. Gu wanted to let you know that this gift has already belonged to you and it is at your disposal."

'Arvin even didn't give her the right to refuse?' Angela thought to herself.

Because of this, she lost her temper. She took the tote bag and threw it to the garbage. Kent was able to see what she did.

"All right. I have dealt with it. Mr. Jiang, you can go back!"

Kent glanced at the tote bag inside the garbage. He could not help but remind Angela, "Miss Si, the thing inside the bag was invaluable..."

"I know! However, I don't want to accept. Of course, you can pick it up and bring it back to Arvin"

Angela had firmly grasped on her clothes to prevent herself from picking it up.

Kent shook his head. "All right, Miss Si. I'm leaving!"

"Okay. Bye, Mr. Jiang!"

...

It was so quiet in the nurse station but Angela didn't want to sleep this time. She was staring at the tote bag which was in the garbage. Did she go too far? She promised Arvin to accept it.

Angela picked the bag up when she was about to go off duty. She opened the blue brocade box and found two big black pearls in it.

They were round in shape and they were shiny and bright. Angela was sure that they were invaluable.

She carefully touched the two pearls. She was hesitating whether she should return them to Arvin or keep them.

The next day, Nancy came back from her home. Angela has asked for her advice and finally she decided to keep the pearls.

When they were on the morning shift, they went to the mall and bought a shirt for Arvin.

Angela answered Randal's call when they were back at the apartment. Randal wanted to eat dinner with her.

Angela didn't refuse him because she wanted to break up with him again.

But this time, Randal behaved well. He was so considerate and tender, which made Angela have second thoughts about breaking up with him.

Later on, Angela has finally decided. Despite the gloom in her eyes, she had to part ways with him.

When Angela drove back to her home, Randal's face was filled with great dissatisfaction. Compared to Susie, Angela was not lovely at all. She had no femininity. He would have broken up with her if she was not so rich!

On the Sunday night, Arvin didn't take Lily to Angela's house. This made Angela so upset. In fact, she requested to change her shift for that day. She even bought foods which are suited for an elder woman to eat.

She thought Arvin would come but it seemed like she had expected too much. Arvin was really planning to stay away from her.

All right, then so be it. She would respect his decision. She didn't care about it at all...

On Monday, Angela decided to come to the office of the vice director and knocked on the door.

It was a woman who opened the door. Angela never thought about it! That woman was tall and beautiful. She had long black curly hair which reached her shoulders.

She was wearing a cream colored clothes and a pair of the most popular pointy high-heeled shoes. Everybody would consider her as a debutante just by looking at her appearance.

People would never expect that she was an obstetrician-gynecologist. She didn't look like a doctor.

She looked very elegant even as she spoke, "Hello. What's up?"

Angela immediately recognized her. She was Nita, an authority of the Obstetrician and Gynecologist Department. Almost all of her colleagues were talking about her.

'She has come back yet? She was really planning to work here?'

"Hello. I came here for Arvin!"

Angela easily impressed Nita because she called the vice director in his first name.

She worked in this hospital and was wearing nurse uniform, but she directly called Arvin's name rather than Mr. Gu...

Nita smiled to Arvin and told him, "Arv, a nurse is looking for you!"

Arv...

A nurse...

She has shown the difference between her and Angela just by calling Arvin as Arv. She wanted to show off her close relationship with Arvin. Angela felt so uncomfortable about it.

"Come in." Arvin knew it was Angela there. He could recognize her voice.

Nita made her way and let Angela enter the office. Arvin was sitting behind the table and was looking at Angela.

He looked at her in an indifferent way, just like looking at a stranger...

Suddenly, Angela felt so nervous. She hesitated and she couldn't even move her hand and give the shopping bag which contained a men's shirt she chose for Arvin. She had the courage before she came here but now she was nervous. What's wrong with her? Why did she feel a little scared when she saw Arvin?

Arvin didn't urge her to speak. He just stared at her and he already knew that she was in hesitation. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
