Chapter 23
And just as he thought, he went into the ward and saw Scarlett removing the string from her arms.
“You are still injured” Damien reminded her.
“I’m fine” Scarlett said and made to stand up but Damien places a hand on her shoulder stopping her from moving.
“Don’t move too much, I will call the doctor” Damien stopped her and pressed the intercom to call the doctor.
“I’m really fine, The kids cannot be without me’ She muttered and made to stand up but Damien didn’t let her move.
“Stay still” He glared at her coldly as Scarlett finally stayed still but her legs were tapping on the floor constantly.
Soon A doctor came into the ward.
“Miss Scarlett please lie down so that I can examine you” The female doctor brought out his stethoscope and waited for Scarlett to lie down.
After she lay down he checked her heart beat for sometime before he stopped and stood straight.
“Miss Scarlett’s Heart beat is normal but to confirm we have to do a more detailed body examination” The doctor turned to Damien and reported while keeping a safe distance from him.
“No need, I don’t need to be examined. I know my own body and I am absolutely fine” Scarlett stood up to leave but Damien immediately stood in front of her stopping her.
“Get Examined!” He ordered but it only made Scarlett frown.
“Mr. Damien, I’m not familiar with you and you don’t have any right to tell me what to do and what not to do!” She raised her voice and reminded him coldly after he kept on stepping in her way.
“I don’t care about you!” Damien stated directly.
“Then you can let me go, it’s just a little injury”
“The kids will be worried!” He finished as Scarlett that was just about to walk past him stopped and turned to look at him.
“What did you say?!”
“You can leave if you want” He no longer cared about her and walked past her leaving the ward.
“Hey! Where are you going to?! Come and complete what you were saying!!!” She followed behind him but before she could get close to him, two guards stood in her way.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
“Let me go! I need to talk to him” Scarlett made to walk pass her but they only stood in front of her indifferently.
“Mr. Damien, What did you do with my kids?” She raised her voice and asked but received no reply.
“Star!!” Scarlett heard a familiar voice and turned leaving the guards that were holding her back
“Lisa what are you doing here?” She raised her brows
“Mr. Damien won’t come and see me so I hacked into the hospital camera and snuck in tonight” Lisa said.
“Mr. Damien? What does he have to do and why doesn’t he want you to come and see me?” Scarlett asked but Lisa dragged her into her hospital ward first before answering her questions.
They both sat down in the ward and looked at each other.
“He hasn’t told you yet?” Lisa raised her brows and asked.
“Tell me what? And why didn’t you come with the kids?” She pouted and asked.
“Scarlett I’m not the one with Dillan and Delanie” Lisa broke the news as Scarlett frowned and soon her eyes turned cold.
“What do you mean?! Did that old man take my incident as an opportunity not take them?”
“Is not the old man” Lisa replied as she didn’t know how to answer her.
“Huh? Where they kidnapped? Who dared to kidnap my babies”
“No! Mr. Damien took them with him! You can’t believe that you babies sold you out and accepted that cunning man as their step father. I still don’t know what he has said to then that made them accept him” Lisa clicked her tongue showing her dissatisfaction with Mr. Damien Malcolm.
“What did you say?” Scarlett moved her ear closer as of she didn’t hear her well.
Her face was full of shock and disbelief.
“You heard me really well, You could have seen the expression on my face when they both of them called him Dad” Lisa Rick clapped her hands as she also couldn’t believe that was happening.
“So that’s why he said that” Scarlett stood up as her palm clenched into a fist.
“I swear, I am going to kill him myself!!! But first_” She turned and looked at Lisa.
“First what?” Lisa looked yo at her confused.
“I need a full body examination, you can call the doctor over” Scarlett gritted her teeth as she spoke.
“The intercom is next to you” Lisa pointed at her side as Scarlett looked over and pressed the intercom directly.
After that she turned and looked at Lisa, Which a questioning gaze.
“What? Why are you looking at me like that?” Lisa raised her brows.
“Tell me the truth, Why are you here?” Scarlett asked her suddenly.
“Aish! I really hate the fact that you catch up with everything so easily” Lisa sighed as her mood went down.
“What happened?”
“That old man sent people to find me” Lisa blurted out.
“What?!”
“He went to my old home, Fortunately, Mr. Damien asked me to stay in an apartment just outside of his estate so when they went to my other apartment they didn’t see me but I saw it all in my laptop” Lisa took a deep breathe as if she let off a big load out of her chest.
“He really would go far for those kids” Scarlett’s face was not so good after listening to Lisa.
“That’s why I suddenly thought that, Mr. Damien Malcolm might be the person we need now” Lisa said as Scarlett sneered.
“He convinced you too?” She asked Lisa.
“No, But then, in this world the only person that The old man is afraid of is Mr. Damien Malcolm, because he has the power that even the president of so many other countries including ours does not have. He is the back bone of this country.
I saw that they kids seems to get along well with him, and as Dillan said, he is better than Ryan that idiot! Think about it, You do your thing and don’t care about him” Lisa finished her long speech as the both of them took in a deep breathe.
“Right now, I can’t make a choice and I have to see how things unfold” Scarlett sighed and didn’t give a direct answer.
“Miss Scarlett, please you have to follow me for your full body examination” The female doctor that came in at first came back again and said as Scarlett nodded and followed behind her with Lisa
