The cardiac surgery area was as quiet as the places of other floors. There were only a few nurses pushing a medicine cart who occasionally passed by.
Emily came out of the elevator and walked along the corridor to Simon's office. The light cast her long shadow on the ground, mixed with the gentle sound of her footsteps.
"Pit-a-pat!"
She raised her hand and knocked on the door tentatively.
The door was not locked. Emily twisted the door handle and pushed the door open. There was no light inside. With the moonlight pouring in through the window, she looked around the room and frowned in confusion.
She closed the door but she didn't went back.
The words of Selena, lingered in her mind. Thinking that doctors were ranked first as well as many beautiful nurses and intern staffs in the hospital, Emily began wandering in the corridor unconsciously.
As she passed by the duty room, the light was on.
Emily put her hand on the door like she did just now, but before she twisting the handle, a crack appeared. Under the light, a young female nurse was lying on the legs of a man in a white gown at the corner of the bookcase...
The female nurse's face was buried in legs, and the man's back was turned to the door, so Emily couldn't see their appearances clearly.
However, according to the sitting position, the man was tall. Then Emily noticed the watch on the man's left hand. Emily could not remember the brand of Simon's watch, but she clearly remembered that the brown leather watch strap of this man was the same with that of Simon!
Emily suddenly fell into a panic.
Could it be true that Selena was right?
She felt nervous and couldn't help pushing the door with her hand, trying to see more clearly. When she was slightly exerting her strength, someone suddenly grabbed the hand behind her back, which made her stagger backward.
Emily turned back and looked into the person's eyes. She exclaimed excitedly in a low voice."... Simon!" "Shh!" Simon stretched out his hand to cover her mouth.
After closing the door quietly, he held her arms and strode to his office.
After turning on the light, Simon put her on the chair in front of the desk. Then he pulled another chair on the other side of the desk and asked her, "Did they just see you?"
"I don't think so..." Emily shook her head in embarrassment.
The two persons inside were immersing in their affairs, so she couldn't disturb them easily. Therefore, she was completely sure that she had not been found.
Hearing this, Simon nodded and knocked on the table with his fingers. "Don't go to the duty room casually in the future!"
"Got it!" Emily curled her lips.
She would never do that again, because it made her feel extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, she didn't see clearly who they were. Otherwise, if she saw them again in the future, she couldn't guarantee that she could resist the responsibility of being a journalist and went to interview them.
Simon raised his eyebrows and teased. "Emily, do you still have the hobby of peeping at other people making love?"
"I don't!" Emily was embarrassed and retorted. She looked embarrassed and continued to say, "I didn't know that they were doing that kind of thing..."
It seemed that her cousin's words were not all hearsay. Indeed, in the special profession, some doctors were still not able to hold back their loneliness. Since the person inside was not Simon, Emily instantly became happy.
All the depression was swept away.
"What are you giggling about?" Simon frowned.
Emily stopped smiling and snorted, saying, "It's none of your business!"
"By the way, where did you go just now?"
"Smoking." Simon replied lazily.

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
