I'm Your Sister, Brother Chow novel Chapter 62

Had she not died in the hands of those two people that day, she still wouldn't have the will to continue living on anymore.

Even more so since the world had been so cold and cruel to her all along.

"You've got a whole life ahead of you. What do you mean by not being able to pay me back?" Joker asked. "Don't worry. I'll make sure I get back what you owe me that day." Joker then hopped onto his motorcycle. "Come on. We still need to eat."

Vivian obediently hopped up behind him and said cautiously, "Well, you can pick another expensive place for lunch."

"Pfft, are you really trying to be my sugar mommy?" Joker asked with a laugh.

Vivia blushed when he started laughing out loud. "No, I just wanted to thank you properly."

"Forget the expensive restaurants. It's easy to lose your appetite there. I'd rather get something by the roadside to eat. It's a lot less uncomfortable that way."

Joker then wrapped Vivian's arms around his waist before revving off.

Vivian couldn't help smiling to herself as she stared at his back throughout the ride.

What ulterior motives would someone who gave up on a luxurious restaurant for a roadside stall have for getting close to her?

What's more, she wasn't even worth anyone getting close to for that very reason.

As the wind whizzed by their ears, Vivian couldn't stop herself from thanking him out loud again. "Joker, thank you so much!"

"What did you say?" Joker couldn't hear her clearly because of how fast he was going.

Vivian just continued smiling to herself. "Really, thank you so much. If we ever meet again in the future, I really hope that I'll be able to pay you back for everything you did."

There weren't many people around, and Vivian's voice wasn't low or hoarse either.

Even if Joker didn't manage to catch everything she said, he still managed to get the gist of it.

He frowned softly to himself.

Why did Vivian's words sound rather weird to him?

Why did he feel that Vivian was prepared to never see him again for the rest of her life?

"Send two people here to watch Vivian 24 hours a day. Let me know at once if there's anything up." As soon as Joker sent Vivian home, he dialled the number on his phone again.

He might just be looking too much into it, but he didn't want any 'what ifs' to happen if he could help it.

He wanted to be a hundred per cent sure.

There was no way he was going to let Vivian out of his grasp, especially since he'd found out that she was in that kind of relationship with Chow.

...

There was a hint of darkness in his eyes. He would never let any accidents happen to his picture-perfect plans.

Never, ever.

The sun gradually set in the sky. Darkness fell onto everything in sight.

However, as one of the most famous and prestigious hospitals in Holy City, Gordan Hospital was still hustling and bustling busily as ever.

"Dr. Gordon, have you had dinner yet? I heard that there's a new Japanese restaurant nearby with great reviews. Do you want to go there with me?"

The invitation came from a polite, well-mannered nurse. It was most probably her first time being so assertive.

She was already a blushing mess by the time her words left her mouth.

Although it was just her first time making the first move, for someone like Raylan Gordan, it wasn't the first time he'd received invitations like this.

He stuck the pen into the breast pocket of his doctor's coat and smiled at the nurse as he held on to the clipboard. "You're making me crave Japanese food now."

The nurse's eyes lit up immediately when she heard that. "Then, shall we—"

"But, I'm sorry to say that I've got an appointment for tonight. Maybe next time," he said as he patted her shoulders and handed her the clipboard. "Can you please put this back for me? I'm in a hurry to leave."

The little nurse was so excited to have such close contact with her idol that she forgot to be disappointed by his rejection. She hugged the clipboard and nodded immediately. "Alright, Dr. Gordon! Don't worry, I'll put it back properly for you. You can go off now!"

"Thank you." Raylan then shrugged off his white coat and placed it into the nurse's hands with a smile before heading outside.

Only the little nurse was left behind, hugging his white doctor's coat as her eyes sparkled in excitement and infatuation.

Raylan hadn't even walked out of the hospital when he caught sight of two familiar figures.

Chow was holding on to Celine, who looked rather weak and frail. They had just entered the hospital.

For some reason, Raylan couldn't help feeling thoroughly disgusted when he saw Celine.

Although Raylan never thought much about relationships, he was still a true gentleman.

If he saw a woman looking so weak and uncomfortable, he would never hesitate to lend a helping hand.

However, he just couldn't find it in himself to want to help this woman.

Nonetheless, he had been wanting to look for the man that was right beside this woman.

Chow caught sight of Raylan as well. His footsteps slowed down.
