Chapter 3 Trouble Is Coming
“Are you sure? Don’t fool me. Last time you taught the teachers to destroy the computers in the kindergarten so that everyone could enjoy a holiday. Are you sure that you don’t do anything wrong ?”
Ian didn’t know what to say.
How could Haley think so evil of him? How handsome and clever Ian was! He wouldn’t do bad things.
It was the teachers that wanted to talk with Ian.
“Yes, Mum. I just tell them how to play a game. I’m hungry, Mum. Let’s go back home.”
“…”
At last, Haley took Ian away.
Haley, Lily and Ian came back home, and Haley went to the kitchen to prepare dinner.
But Haley received a phone call before dinner was ready.
“The leaders of the hospital agree you to treat the patient, Dr. Demi. Is it convenient for you to come over now ?”
“Now ?”
“Yes. The family member of the patient is here. She hears about the decision and wants to talk to you about the treatment.”
The nurse was also helpless.
It was annoying to have such a patient. The rich people always wanted everyone else to listen to them. It looked as if they controlled the whole world.
Haley agreed.
“I have to go to the hospital, Ian. Can you help Lily and have dinner together ?”
“OK, Mum. Don’t worry. I will take care of Lily. Nothing will go wrong.”
Ian was just like an adult. He pretended to be mature and waved to Haley, telling her that it was nothing serious.
When Ian was home and could take care of Lily, Haley didn’t need to worry.
So, Haley went out.
But she didn’t know that Ian went to her study the minute she came out.
“What are you doing, Ian? Mum tells us to have dinner now.”
“Keep quiet. I want to hack into the computer of the principal of the kindergarten. She showed me a photo of a boy who looked the same as me. She said that he would go to this kindergarten too. I want to check who he is.”
Ian was young but clever. He sat on the chair and succeeded in hacking into the computer of the principal within several minutes.
He found the information about the new boy.
“Wow! Is this you, Ian ?”
Lily was so surprised to see the photo that she just shouted out.
Ian frowned and replied, “No. Look! His name is Roy Black.”
Ian reached out and pointed at the name on the screen. He was confused.
Lily was even more surprised. She opened her eyes wide.
“Roy Black. Then, he is not you. Why are you so alike? Is he Mum’s kid too ?”
“…”
Ian remembered that Haley always opened a box in secret. Inside the box, there were some clothes for a new-born baby. But they were brand new. Haley would cry while looking at the clothes. Ian decided to see the boy, who looked similar to him.
“The Hilton Hotel.”
Ian kept this name in his mind.
Half an hour later. In the Pukins Hospital.
“You are here, Dr. Demi.”
“Yes. Where is the family member of the patient ?”
“She is in the director’s office. Be careful. She is bad-tempered.”
The nurse was kind and asked Haley to take care.
Haley smiled at the nurse. She put on her white coat and her mask before going to the director’s office.
“It’s Demi, director.”
“Come in, please. The family member of the patient is here. Come and meet her.”
It was bright in the director’s office. The director was a little old. He was trying his best to communicate with the lady. There was cold sweat on his forehead.
It was not easy to communicate with her.
Hearing Haley’s voice, the director stood up immediately and opened the door. He hoped that Haley could help him.
Haley was speechless.
She was surprised that the director opened the door himself.
But soon, she noticed the other person in the office. Seeing her face clearly, Haley recognized who she was. Haley changed her face and couldn’t believe what she saw.
“Is this the excellent doctor you told me? She ?”
Hearing that the door opened, the other person stood up too.
It was a lady. She was tall and thin and wore heavy and delicate make-up. Her hair was curly and brown. She was wearing a coat which was the last limited edition of a fashion brand. How arrogant and aggressive she looked!
It was Marry Taylor.
Haley didn’t expect that the first acquaintance from the past she met was Marry.Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g
So, was she the patient?
Haley was wearing a mask and her facial expression couldn’t be seen. But one could see through the eyes that Haley became colder and colder. And at last, Haley became indifferent.
Haley and Jason got together because of the arranged marriage. The Jone family and the Black family were close to each other. After Haley was born, George just decided that Jason would marry Haley in the future. At that time, Jason was only five.
Haley didn’t take the engagement seriously because she thought that it was just a joke between the adults.
But Haley liked Jason since childhood.
Something happened to the Jone family later and Haley lost her family. George didn’t leave Haley alone and told Haley about the arranged marriage. He asked Haley to marry Jason and live a good and peaceful life in the Black family.
At that time, Haley fell in love with Jason.
But at last, it turned out that she was wrong. She married Jason but Jason was so cruel to her.
“I made a mistake, director.”
“What ?”
“I can’t cure her. Please ask someone else to treat her.”
Haley sounded cold. She left without hesitation after finishing the word.
