One last time - Chapter 284
Silvia frowned and wondered, “At this time?” before picking up the call.
“Sil, where are you?” Janet excitedly asked.
“We at the main mansion, what’s up?” Silvia asked.
“You won’t believe what I am about to say.” Janet excitedly squealed.
Silvia chuckled and helplessly shook her head. Janet has always been like this. More exciting sequels than words. “First calm down and tell me what happened.”
When Janet squealed again, Silvia chuckled and instructed, “Jan take a few deep breaths first.”
After taking a few deep breaths, Janet cheekily smiled. “You won’t believe what is actually happening around us.”
“What is it?” Silvia asked.
“Something is going on between Aunt Liza and uncle Jack.”
Silvia excitedly widened her in shock. “You gotta be kidding me.”
Janet again squealed in excitement and chuckled. “I was shocked too but trust me babe, it’s true.”
“Start spilling Jan.” Silvia impatiently and excitedly said.
Janet chuckled and narrated the entire thing to Silvia in one go. “You see? There is definitely something going on. Okay maybe not something but there is at least a spark between them.”
“Ahhh this is so exciting, they will look so cute together.” Silvia exclaimed.
“Should we or should we not?” Janet asked.
Silvia chuckled and vigorously nodded her head. “Hell yeah we have to. Let’s include Martha and Bella in this too.”
“What about Ron?” Janet asked.
“I think we should let him spend some time with Mia.” Silvia suggested.
Janet nodded her head and agreed, “Yeah I think you are right. By the way Sil, I am resuming work again from next week. What about you? Working or not?”
“Of course I will, work is important. What about Ron?” Silvia asked.
“He will join too. By the way I heard Dr Johnathan has requested the hospital authority to transfer you to his department. Marvin had called today and gave me a few new gossip from the hospital and this was one of them.” Janet explained.
Silvia frowned and asked, “Why would he do that?”
“Do who what?” Kevin asked before placing his head on her lap and hugging her waist.
Running her fingers through this hair, Silvia said, “I’ll talk to the authorities after I return back. There is no way I am changing departments Jan. I like our emergency department so much. There is you and also Ron too so it’s more convenient for me.”
“Seems like your lover boy hasn’t given up on you. He knows that you are married to a handsome man but still. Tch….he still wants to leech over you.” Janet really despised men who kept clinging onto women who were happily married.
“Don’t stress over it, I’ll manage.” Silvia assured Janet.
After talking about a few random things, Silvia and Janet called it off for the night and decided to talk more when they met.
“What happened?” Kevin asked.
Running her finger through his hair, Silvia sighed. “It’s nothing, just work.”
“Mrs Austin, you do know that your husbands company is the biggest shareholder and the biggest sponsor of the hospital you work in right?” Kevin smiled asked.
Smacking his arm, Silvia said, “It’s my workplace Kev so no exercising powers.”
“I will if they try to bully my wife.” Kevin would never let anyone who even tries to bully his wife go.
“No one is bullying me it’s just that Dr Johnathan-”
Cutting her off, Kevin frowned and asked, “That touchy bone doctor?”
Silvia nodded her head and added, ” He wants to shift me to his department.”
Kevin frowned deeper and asked, “Why would he do that? And I don’t like that man.” How could he like anyone who fancied his beautiful wife and kept looking for ways to touch her?
“Well, I did not say anything back then because we were not ‘WE’ but now it’s different. If he even tries to come near you, I’ll break his legs.” Or rather kill him.
Silvia chuckled and helplessly shook her head.
“You want to break an orthopedic doctor’s legs? He can easily treat himself.”
“I’ll break his hands too then.” Kevin snapped.
Kissing his forehead, Silvia brushed her nose against his. “Then I don’t have anything to worry about, I have my husband protecting me.”
Caressing her cheeks, Kevin smiled. “I’ll always protect my wife no matter what.”
…
Helis restaurant.
After having dinner, Chris and Martha were about to leave the restaurant when someone spilled a glass of champagne on Martha’s dress.
“I am so sorry miss I-” the woman panicked and tried to dab Martha’s dress with her hand.
Martha smiled and stopped her. “It’s alright.” Turning towards Chris, Martha said, “I’ll go and wash this.”
“You want me to accompany you?” Chris asked.
“It’s alright, why don’t you get the car ready while I deal with this?” Martha assured him before walking towards the washroom.
After gesturing a bodyguard to follow Martha, Chris left.
….
Inside the washroom.
After dabbing some water on her dress, Martha was washing her hands when a woman entered the washroom.
She was wearing a very formal dress and looked quite smart and beautiful.
“Are you Martha Jelvis?” The woman asked.
Martha nodded her head and asked, “Yes, sorry do I know you?”
“Are you Chris Walker’s wife?” The woman asked.
When Martha nodded her head, the woman smiled.
Martha raised her eyebrows when she noticed something. The woman standing in front of her resembled Chris a lot, especially her eyes. Her eyes were exactly like Chris’. “Do I know you?”
The woman shook her head and smirked. “No you don’t know me but I know you and your husband very well.”
Martha fronwed and asked, “What do you want?” when she saw the woman take out a small knife from her bag.
“What if I say that I want your life or may be your husbands?” The woman asked.
When Martha did not say anything, the woman added, “Your husband is very daring I must say. Ignoring our threats, he is still doing what we asked him not to. What a brave and stupid move?”
