Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 104
Mr. Fernando arrived at the hospital and stepped down from his car. He shut the door and locked it, then stuffed the keys into the pocket of his long brown jacket.
Holding onto his bag, he began to walk towards the hospital.
Victor, who was inside his car with James seated beside him, vigorously blinked his eyes in nervousness and nudged James on the arm.
“What is it?” James asked, with displeasure apparent on his face.
“That’s him.” Victor pointed at a man walking into the hospital building.
“Who?” James asked in confusion.
“My uncle.” Victor annoyedly slapped him on the head and pointed at Mr. Fernando, who was about to step into the hospital building.
“Oh no!” James turned his head to stare at Victor with uneasiness written all over his face. “We need to inform them.”

An annoyed deep growl left Kiesha’s mouth, and she punched the door. “What the fuck is this?! I thought this was going to be easy!” She raised her annoyed-filled eyes to stare at Leia, who was gazing at her with an awkward expression on her face.
“So… you can’t do it?” Leia asked with a bit of a cracked voice that held disappointment.
“No way! It’s either me or this door!! ” She bellowed and inhaled and exhaled deeply to calm herself down. A smile formed on her face and she moved her ear closer to the door to continue what she was doing.
Let’s let out a low sigh and turn her head to glance at the hallway.
“Leia, my uncle, just entered the building and I am a hundred percent sure that he is coming to his office.” Victor’s filled unexpectedly voice rang in her ears and her eyes fluttered violently.
“What!” She became panic-stricken and her hands gradually began to sweat. This only happens when she’s uneasy or nervous.
“You guys need to get out of there fast! Find somewhere to hide!”
Leia took a deep breath to calm her beating heart and turned to Kiesha. She abruptly grabbed Kiesha by the arm, causing the pin to fall off and onto the ground.
“Leia-”
“We need to hide!” She dragged her towards a pillar and pushed her behind it, then joined her in hiding.
Steady footsteps resounded, indicating that someone was coming, and Kiesha grabbed Leia’s hand, holding onto it tightly to calm herself down.
A brown-haired man with glasses hung on the bridge of his nose came into view, and Leia’s eyes flickered as she scrutinized him. So this is the man that was in charge of her mother’s treatment all those times.
Her eyes narrowed and she held tightly onto Kiesha’s hand, which was trembling. Kiesha is indeed a strong woman, but sometimes she loses her cool when it comes to things like this.
The middle-aged man, who was obviously Fernando, shoved his hand into his pocket to grab his key, then leaned down to drop his bag on the floor. However, when he proceeded to straighten up, his eyes suddenly fell on something on the floor and he leaned closer to examine it. It was a very slim, shiny pin.
Mr. Fernando’s eyes diminished, and he picked it up from the floor. “Where did this come from?” he questioned himself and darted his eyes around.
Suspicion arose in his heart, and he stopped his gaze at the pillar that Leia and Kiesha hid behind.
His eyes dwindled more, and he stuffed the pin into the pocket of his jacket, then slowly began to walk towards the pillar.
Kiesha’s heart raced wildly within her and the only thing that continuously came to her mind was, “We are going to jail! I am going to jail. ”
Leia’s eyes flickered nervously and her hands sweated profusely. She swallowed and breathed deeply while tightly holding onto Kiesha’s hand, in the hope of it keeping her from making a single sound.
Mr. Fernando walked closer to the pillar, and just when he was about to look behind it, someone tapped him on the shoulder, and he immediately jolted around.
“Oh…” He let out a low breath when he saw that it was a nurse, and a smile emerged on his lips. “Anything I can help you with, Meredith.”
“Sir-” The young nurse who was Meredith adjusted the glasses that were about to slip off the bridge of her nose and raised her eyes to stare at Mr. Fernando. “-The patient needs immediate treatment and his parents request your presence.”
“Ahh… I see.” Mr. Fernando nodded with a smile on his face and spared a glance at the pillar, then proceeded towards his bag that was on the floor.
He picked it up and began to walk away, with the nurse following behind him.
The moment he was out of sight, a long, deep breath escaped Kiesha’s nose, and she slumped to the floor.
Leia took a low breath of relief and turned to stare at her, only to see drops of tears falling from her eyes.
“Kiesha, why the fuck are you crying?” She hurriedly helped her up from the floor and used her hand to dab the tears off.
“Men, we could have been caught, and then it’s a jail for us!”
“Hey, don’t say that. We just need to do what we came here for and then we will leave, okay.” Leua assured her and she responded with a nod, then took a deep breath before allowing a smile to form on her lips.
“Alright…” She walked to the door to continue trying to unlock it, but realizing that Mr. Fernando had left with the pin, she pinched her brow and turned her head to stare at Leia. “Pin.” She reached out her hand, and Leia stuffed her hand into her pocket to pull out her pin.
She gave it to her, and Kiesha half smiled at her. “Alright, you will be the one dying, not me!” She glared at the door and carefully inserted the pin into the lock.
“Are you guys alright?” Victor suddenly asked, with concern evident in his tone, and Leia took a deep breath. “Yes, we are fine.” She responded, and a low breath of solace escaped Victor’s mouth.
“I am glad you guys are okay.” He said this with a voice that held less nervousness.
Leia focused her eyes on the hallway, and Kiesha gradually worked on the lock.
