Love Together, Be With You Never

Chapter 87 Don't Worry, Alicia

"Marlon, do you know I have been worried sick because you left without saying goodbye last night?"

Just as I picked up the phone, Alicia's pitiful voice rang out. One would feel sorry for her just by

listening to her complaint. "Marlon, I miss you. I have been missing you while you are away. I want to

see you. Is that okay?"

I smiled happily. Truth be told, if I had been a man, I would have picked her, too. The words that came

out of her mouth were so touching that it could drown the cold stones, let alone a man's heart.

However, Alicia, so what?

I smiled slowly, "Alicia, you guys are so adorable. It has just been a couple of hours, but you sounded

like you hadn't seen him for ages!"

As soon as I said that, she shrieked like a riled-up cat, "Where's Marlon? Why it's you?"

I slowly glanced at him. He was still focused on driving, but his handsome face was clouded with anger.

I knew I was getting under his skin but did not return the phone to him, and he chose not to snatch it

from me. "Marlon is driving, so his hands are full. Alicia, just tell me what you have to say, and I'll pass

it on to him!"

The minute I finished speaking, she hung up on me. I waved it at him innocently and said, "Mr.

Redford, Alicia seems to miss you very much, but she also sounded a little upset. Shouldn't you

apologize to her to cheer her up?"

The car suddenly stopped. He didn't even look at me while saying coldly, "Get out!"

I looked outside the window and realized we were in the middle of the road. Sighing innocently, I

protested, "Mr. Redford, you are being petty. I answered your phone out of kindness, but you are

asking me to leave!"

He turned his head and stared at me with his inky eyes coldly, saying word by word in a creepy tone,

"Rachael, I don't care what games you are playing, because they won't work on me. Plus, I know for a

fact that you are a slut through and through!"

I felt a sting in my heart and gave a wry smile. "Games? Why don't I know about them? I promise to Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

inform you if any comes to my mind!" As I said that, I opened the door and got out. Before I could even

stand still, the car barreled out of sight.

I sneered at myself, and the smile on my face faded away. Marlon could always find a way to stab me

in the heart when I dropped my guard. I was never prepared for the pain that followed. Guilty as

charged, I had been too stupid to come up with something to deal with it for so many years.

Back to business, as I had just said, I got nothing up my sleeve. But I made up my mind to guard my

dignity no matter what dirty tricks I had to use.

Because it was all I had left!

Then I second guessed myself. Did I still have that, though?

It was quiet, and a breeze suddenly blew through my long hair. I slowly smiled. Even if I didn't have

dignity now, I was going to get it back bit by bit. I wanted twice what they had taken away from me.

Alicia, Shania, Marvin... All of the Cornells would pay. Right, and Marlon!

My firm gaze turned cold. Then I noticed where I was. My smile grew. What a coincidence! It was about

time for me to pay a visit.

I walked to the hospital before me. I had asked Emmalee to hit on Kaleb. I wondered how it went.

I bought a mask on the street and ran my fingers through my hair, heading for Kaleb's office.

A swarm of patients were jostling through the hospital corridors. Amid the noise, I vaguely heard the

humble pleas of some of them in the offices. My heart hurting, I recalled how tremendously desperate I

had been when I begged the doctor to save Kaleb, while those bastards, Kaleb, Alicia, and Shania, had

tried to throw us under the bus.

Alicia, Shania, Kaleb, brace yourselves for the despair I was going to make you feel! You wouldn't be

able to run from it.

I carefully walked to Kaleb's office and stopped at the door. I pretended to wait for him to come out and

sat on a chair outside the room, taking a peek from time to time. I had been worried Emmalee would

not come as I asked, but I saw her the first time I looked into the office.

The room was packed, yet she stood out. Not only because she was tall and slender, but she was

wearing a scarlet mini-skirt. Her fair legs were exposed as usual, which attracted the attention of all the

male patients there.

She was seated beside Kaleb demurely and gently serving him tea. "Mr. Evans, thank you so much for

that day. If it hadn't been for your excellent medical skills, I might not have survived. I appreciate you

deeply!" said her as she placed the teacup next to his mouth. "Mr. Evans, you're so busy. You must be

thirsty. Please take a sip! I will hold it for you." She leaned over and displayed her cleavage to him.

I had been worried Emmalee wasn't his type. After all, she was vulgar despite her good looks and

figure. However, I was relieved when I saw how he reacted.

He wasn't annoyed at her for disturbing his work and drank the tea with a satisfied look, saying gently,

"Emmalee, this is too much. It's my job to cure you when you are sick. How about you call me

whenever you feel unwell? I'll come to your rescue immediately!"

"Mr. Evans, you're so kind!" she said coquettishly.

I felt sad that all his patients were waiting anxiously but didn't dare to offend him.

I took out my phone and called Emmalee. I saw her hesitate before picking up. I cut to the chase, "I am

waiting for you outside!" Then I hung up.

After a while, she came out. When she saw me sitting on a chair at the door, her face dulled. "Why are

you here?"

I smiled, "I came to see you. And I want to have a chat with you!"

Although she hated me, we went to a nearby coffee shop and sat in a corner. I gazed at the steam of

the coffee in silence, and she said impatiently, "Rachael, cut the theatrics. What do you want?"

Only then did I rest my eyes on her from the coffee, saying calmly, "What if my theatrics can help you

get Kaleb? Are you in or not?"

In fact, the answer was obvious. I figured she had checked Kaleb out and knew how rich and esteemed

he was. Besides, she had just showed how much she was interested in him in that office. I would

venture to say she wished to marry him.

"Rachael, I don't have time for your nonsense. Just shoot!" She still sounded hostile, but I didn't care. I

wasn't going to be sisters with her anyway.

I took a sip of my coffee and slowly said, "Relax, Emmalee. We can't rush this. You must be patient

when it comes to Kaleb. He has a great job and is good-looking. Don't you think he already has a

girlfriend or at least someone who is hitting on him?"

"What do you mean?" She got snappy.
