As she opened the door to walk out, Dr . Nelson's staff manager, Stella came inside . She wanted to show him a couple of files and take his opinion regarding the supply bills . She was one of Dr . Nelson's childhood friends and business partner .
The moment she walked in, she saw Akira in front of her, who was about to walk out of the door .
Seeing her she froze then and there, in an instant .
Unable to believe what she was seeing, she looked at Dr . Nelson who shook his head asking her not to utter a single word .
"Sorry, I was just getting the door . "
"It's ok . "
Saying that Akira left that room .
After she left, Stella rushed inside and sat on a chair and looking at Dr . Nelson she asked,
"Who is she Jaby? And why does she look like Alita? For a moment I thought . . . "
"You thought she was her?"
Stella looked at him and nodded her head .
"Imagine my level of shock when I saw her . But that's not her . She is so not her . "

Dr . Nelson said and retired back to his chair .
"Are you saying that for real? Because to me, it looks like you are making yourself understand that she is not her . "
"What's the difference?"
"The difference Jaby is that your ears are burning red . Maybe I will come some other time when you sort yourself better . "
Saying that Stella left the room .
Dr . Nelson closed his eyes and leaned back on his chair .
In came the flooding memories of Alita . The way she used to bake a cake for him, the way she used to beg him to return early from the hospital, the way she used to give him hand-made cards and wish coupons .
Those fleeting memories were all vivid like it was happening just in front of his eyes . But before he could delve in, his desk phone rang .
"Sir the next patient is ready . "
"Send in . "

Even though she had a jampacked patient schedule, she canceled all her appointments after 5 pm that day . Being a doctor she always had spare clothes in her office, so she changed herself into a nice Prussian blue sheath dress . She did her hair and redid her makeup . After applying a generous amount of fragrance, she looked again at herself in the mirror and smiled .
She was ready, ready to swoon the man, upon whom she had a big-time crush .
It was already five forty and she was turning all anxious and kept checking her phone .
As a gift for the birthday boy, she had ordered a bottle of Ace of Spades Champagne which was waiting on her desk, all packed up nicely .
Sharp at five-fifty, he called .
"Hello . "
"Hey there . Hope I didn't keep you waiting for long . "
"Not at all . I just finished my last patient . "
"Oh great then . I am waiting downstairs . Silver Range Rover, plate ending with 81 . "
"Will be down in two minutes . "
"Take your time Dr . Oshana . I can wait . "
Butterflies ran inside her stomach, unable to handle his sweetness . He was the absolute epitome of male chivalry .
She took a deep breath again and then picked up her bag and his gift and went downstairs .
As she got inside the car, she immediately extended her hand to wish him a happy birthday .
Dr . Nelson smiled and asked,
"Shall we start?"
"Yeah . "
Hearing that he started his car for the bar - Highway Blues .
Seeing the ribboned gift in her hand, Dr . Nelson asked,
"I am assuming that one is for me . "
"Yes, it is . "
She said and smiled .
"Well, there was no need for it . I already told you that I just needed your company . I guess I shouldn't have told you about my birthday . "
"Oh come on, it's not much . It's just a champagne bottle . "
"Dr . Oshana, we haven't even become friends yet and you are already giving me an expensive gift . I don't think that's fair . "
"Well then invite me to drink the champagne with you, whenever you open the bottle . "Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
Dr . Nelson looked at her and smiled .
He had always respected her as a hardworking doctor, a beginner whom he expected to grow and rise in his domain . But little did he know how sly and cunning she was with her words, her demeanor, and her actions .
"What are you smiling for?"
"Nothing, just glad that I got your company . My mundane life feels much better now . "
She smiled as she heard his words .
"By the way, you are looking quite nice today," he said even though his insides curled against him .
She instantly blushed and said,
"But you always look dapper, Dr . Nelson . "
Seeing that she was clearly falling into his trap, Dr . Nelson said,
"I was thinking, maybe after we are done at the bar, can I invite you to have champagne with me at my place?"
