She was a bit emotional, but she was firm with her decision . She could not bear to see more people getting hurt because of her .
With her head hung low as she was dashing out of his room, she bumped against someone's chest . Someone's firm and broad chest . But without even bothering to look up at his face, she just said sorry and was about to walk ahead, when she felt his grip around her wrist .
All surprised, she turned and a familiar-looking bearded man .
A man whom she loved from the core of her heart .
"Raymond !!!"
"Shhh !!! Let's go inside . "
Saying that Raymond pulled her back to Dr . Nelson's room where he saw him sitting all upset with his one palm resting on his forehead and the other on the table .
"What happened Dr . Nelson?"
AdvertisementDr . Nelson raised his eyes and looked up at him for some time and then asked,
"What's with this disguise?"
"I guess I am hiding from some people . But that's secondary . What happened to your hand?"
"It's all because of me . "
She said and entered inside the room .
He was surprised and elated at the same time to see her back . For a moment he had thought that she had drifted apart for real . So when he heard her voice, it was all again pretty comforting for him .
Raymond turned back and looked at her entering inside the room with nothing but guilt on her face .
She slumped on the chair and then looked at Raymond and said,
"I thought I was capable of handling it on my own . I thought that I will be able to set things right . But I was overconfident and I undermined the people with whom I was messing up with . And this . . . . "
Saying that she pointed towards Dr . Nelson's injured hand and said,
"This is the aftermath of my uncalculated approach . I am sorry Raymond, I should have told you about it . But now things are really getting out of my hand . I am sorry for going behind your back, but I didn't want you to see or face any of this ugliness Raymond . "
Raymond took a seat next to her and held her hand .
"It's ok . Tell me what happened . Are you in trouble? We can set things right . Akira, look at me . We promised yesterday night to be open with each other . No more secrets ok . "
Akira was almost tearing up and said,
"You have to calmly listen to me . Each and every word that I say and trust me on it . "
"I trust you with my life Akira . "
Then, taking a deep breath, Akira said,
"The false reports that you got from Dr . Oshana, are not because of medical negligence . It's because of the fact that your dad had asked her to do so . "
"Actually, I asked Dr . Nelson to take advantage of the soft corner that she had for him and to make her utter about the whole plot . We gave her truth serum to tell about it all, as in what and why she was doing all this . We recorded the whole conversation and used it to our advantage so that she would stop all her wrongful activities . "
"Then?"
Then Akira looked at Dr . Nelson and then turned back at Raymond and said,
"But I think she is scared that we will use it against her and probably tell Sebastian or Medical authorities, which we do not intend to do . We just made the video as leverage against her so that she would rectify the treatment for you, without you knowing the reason behind it . "
"But that backfired?"
Raymond asked with his intense eyes . Find authorized novels in Webnovel,faster updates, better experience,Please click www . webnovel . com for visiting .
"I . . . I just wanted to shield you, Raymond . There was enough negativity around you . So I didn't want to add in one more component into it . But she misunderstood our intentions and now she is hell-bent on revenge . And to be honest, now I am scared because I really don't know what she will do . "
"I can't see people getting hurt around me . I just can't . It's all happening because of me . "
Raymond immediately wrapped his arm around Akira, and then looked at Dr . Nelson all apologetically . He was also feeling bad that a third person, was getting hurt for no reason .
"Raymond, at least you do not make a scene out of it now . It's just a cut . Nothing serious . But she did give a serious threat about harming Akira and that's what worries me . "
"It is serious Dr . Nelson . We have a situation here and I would like to correct it as soon as possible . Dr . Oshana is a gaping wound . We need to stitch her up . I don't want another loose end to worry about . "
"Where is the video, I want to see it . "
Akira immediately retorted,
"We don't have a copy of it . "
She still didn't want him to see the video and get hurt .
But Dr . Nelson looked at Raymond and said,
"I have a copy with me . "
