Tempting My Rented Boyfriend - Chapter 153

Ch-152

“Because despite all these… you are better than her. You have friends who could stay all night for you outside the ward just to make sure you are fine. They don’t loathe your birth. They only care who you are. You are the best,” she says, trying to calm him.

“Indeed… They are always on my back. But I am not,” Mason said.

“Mr. Boris, you are one of the best people I have seen so far. I once saw you freaking out just because our friend got a single scratch. You called the whole doctor team to make sure he was really fine.

“You are a good support to your friends. You just didn’t notice it,” Tiffany said, trying to calm him down.

“You think so?” he asked.

“Yeah… how about I get someone to clean this room while you rest for a while. After all, your friends wish to see you healthy, not in your so-fucked-up state,” Tiffany said with a smile.

Mason suddenly hugged Tiffany wrapping his hands around her waist. Tiffany was stumped silly at his actions. She tried to break free from his grip but… he just tightened his arms around her.

[What the fuck!?!] Tiffany screamed in her mind. She wanted to clean this room as her germaphobe inside her was kicking her hard right now. But this man was waist hugging her, which was freaking her out badly. But again… she tried to pull him off of her but he wasn’t budging.

Edward entered the room only to hear Mason’s fucked up statements about himself. He wanted to go home and slap his sister to the point that her cheeks swelled up. She fucked up Mason’s brain again. Edward doesn’t want history to be repeated. He was kind of thankful for Tiffany for trying to clear Mason’s head. When he heard no words, he entered the room only to see Tiffany was trying to get off of his grip.

Edward knew he was being a bitch, selfish, and kind of low. But for the sake of his friend and his health he decided to be a bitch.

“Tiffany,” he whispered slowly near her, which almost made her heart jump off her chest.

“What!?” she said, patting her chest.

“I am sorry for saying this but I have to for him,” he says. Tiffany knew it’s not something she likes.

“Say it,” she says.

“Could you stay like that till he falls asleep?” he asked.

“Nope! I have patients. And Myna is hurt. She can’t have patients in this state,” she said, explaining her situation.

Indeed, this was a really really tough task right now. Substituting two main doctors was one of the hardest things.

“I will take care of this. You stay with him for an hour,” he says.

“There is a doctor on leave. Three doctors’ substitution is not an easy feat,” she says feeling frustrated.

“I got this!” he says through his gritted teeth.

“And I want this room to be clean also… I don’t want any of my staff to see me like this and think I am seducing one of the top five hotties of the country,” Tiffany says, shaking her head.

“You want to test me, right?” Edward says. He understood what she meant. She meant for him to clean the room and she put that thing in a way that made him have no rebuttal to return to her.

“I guess so,” she says.

“Fuck me,” he curses.

“Sorry, I got some taste. If I have to choose, I would rather choose Mason than you,” Tiffany says, irritating his curse.

“No wonder you are friends with Myna. I guess birds of the same feathers flock together,” he says. He was so pissed right now. And Tiffany… she was just putting him on the hot grill burning up his ass using her words like fire.

“I will take that as a compliment,” she whispers to him the way they were talking from earlier.

Frustrated, Edward storms out of the room. To get the things done before he puts some patients in danger.

He conveyed the message to Cedric. Cedric made up a plan. But this issue got a solution for one of his headaches. That was an Ashbrook family. All of them belong to the Ashbrook family. They always worked for the military. Apart from soldiers they never treated normal people. After retirement… They just sit at home and do nothing. They again volunteer themselves to the battle camps when there were any camps.

Right now… Cedric called them here not just for a mere substitution but also with a deal.

Tiffany and Myna got two surgeries to do. Myna was worried that she might have delayed the surgery as her hands were hurt. But people from the Ashbrook family would be able to pull even ten surgeries in a day. Because when they were in the war camp, they had to do many surgeries despite the unhygienic surroundings they were in just to save their lives. And they got many patients in line. They had to be faster than general doctors. One has to say that Ashbrook’s got the real deal in the doctor’s industry. They were treated like gods in the doctor’s industry.

Despite how the doctor’s field changed. They still stuck to the traditional ways. Precisely they created new techniques which brought a lot of changes in the medical field. They blended the traditional and modern techniques and got the best remedies to heal the patients in the best and healthy way.

And now… Cedric wants these technologies. He offered many deals with them… but they rejected him without batting an eyelid. Because they dedicated their families to the soldiers and the country. And they believed that there were a lot of doctors in the world to treat the citizens. A military doctor was something that any doctor wouldn’t dare to pick up so casually.

They say that there was a soldier from the Ashbrook family who died in the warfare. If there were enough doctors in the camp, he and many soldiers would have been alive. And the son of that soldier vowed to become a doctor to save the soldiers. And as generations passed it became the only profession for Ashbrook’s family.

And today he was so pissed at himself. As it was the only difficult deal he didn’t crack, he decided to think on it, while he tried to divert himself from Eleanor’s thoughts. That’s when Edward came with the trouble of three doctors’ substitution problems. That rang bells in his mind. He wants those fusion techniques for non-healable patients but not for everyone. And many soldiers got kicked out just because they became disabled.

And spending their time in the war site many soldiers suffered from unknown diseases. There were certain diseases or more like viruses the soldiers got infected with due to the poor living conditions in which they got to live. The government never did any research on the viruses or diseases; they just closed those cases after the wars were over.

And… Ashbrook always wanted to research those things. Unknowingly Edwards’s concern triggered a solution in his brain for this lost cause. He has connections with the government. Also… unfortunately he was one of those people who gives a huge donation to the party campaigning during the elections and a few of the deals they sign to get a lot of money into their pockets. It’s the ugly truth. And his demands wouldn’t go unserved.

He was going to use them right now!

After all, he has a trump card he could use.

“I guess I have to go,” he said.

“You mean?” Edward said.

“It’s a surprise,” he said.

Cedric got up from his seat and dressed up. He has a pair of spare clothes in his car and he wore them grooming himself elegantly.

“Get it done. There are three surgeries in line,” Edward said.

Cedric directly drove to the Ashbrook Villa. He knew Eleanor would be in safe arms. And he could be sure of that because of the presence of Myna and Valene. And the tight security was something that no one could break in unless that person knew everything about them or someone close to them could only break them. And there was no such kind of person.

Myna was worried about Eleanor. She wanted to go and check on her. But this sticky Valene wasn’t leaving her. Tiffany ages ago said that Eleanor would wake up an hour later but it’s been so many hours she hasn’t woken up yet.

“I need to check on Eleanor. Could you cut some slack for me, Mr. Parkinson?” Myna asked, feeling annoyed.

“I will go along with you,” he said with a cute smile on his face.

“But I want to go alone!” she said.

“I won’t be at ease if you go alone. I will be worried for you,” he says.

“Please don’t. I am not going to die,” she said.

“But I am.. I am the reason for your wounds!” he says.
