Chapter 51 Replacement
That young man was Randal, the son of the head of the acupuncture department at Jadeborough Hospital.
Caylie apologized, “I was in the wrong, Mr. Hubbard. I shouldn’t have treated you that coldly-”
Randal interrupted with an icy expression, “Don’t say that. You’re going to make me feel flattered. Also, I’m in the wrong, not you, because why else would I lick your boots for so long?”
In reality, he was relishing the moment. I knew you’d end up realizing I’m the person who’s most devoted to you! Now, get off your high horse and ingratiate me. Perhaps I’ll change my mind and agree to start a relationship with you.
It was only natural that he felt giddy because he thought the goddess he had been chasing for a long time finally pursued him just as he was about to give up.
Suddenly, Claire whispered in Randal’s ear. “Something’s suspicious about this, Mr. Hubbard.”
“What makes you say that?” he asked.
“Think about it. It has been two years since she left the hospital. Who knows how many boyfriends she had? Besides, she used to treat you coldly, so why is she acting so friendly with you today?”
“Get to the point.”
“Based on my experience, I think she’s looking for a father for her baby.”
“What?” Randal was infuriated the instant he heard that and roared, “How dare you, Caylie! Do you think I’m nothing but a pushover?” I knew this whole thing was too good to be true! She’s just trying to use me! This is preposterous!
It wasn’t until the others heard what he said that their confusion about the purpose of Caylie’s visit was cleared up. Yeah! I bet Caylie returned to Mr. Hubbard because she had enough fun with other men! That has to be the reason. Why else would she be here? What a shameless woman!
Swiftly, the group gazed at her with disdain.
The young nurses who hooked up with Randal sneered. What a bimbo! She should’ve searched for a more honest man instead of Mr. Hubbard. Does she think he wouldn’t figure out her scheme?
“What a joke! Do you think he’s your younger brother just because you said so? I think he’s your boyfriend who dumped you after having enough fun with you. That’s why you’re here to get back with Mr. Hubbard!”
