You're The Best Medicine For Me novel Chapter 34

Jordan had walked into the ward with some documents in his hand soon after Shirley had taken her leave.

Bryan held back his smile when he had noticed Jordan’s presence, and he brought a pillow to himself and placed it under his head as he asked, “Have you found anything?”

Jordan promptly placed the documents on the empty spot beside Bryan and picked up the file that had been placed on top to pass it to Bryan, “This file contains Dr. Thomas’s personal information.”

“Dr. Thomas had not lived in America before this, and she was saved by Mr. Walker’s daughter, Ms. Mildred, when she had jumped into the sea to commit suicide six years ago. Her ex-husband was a gambler in France, and it could be said that he was a love swindler whom had cheated on her feelings and money.”

Bryan’s brows were deeply furrowed when he had heard Jordan’s findings, and he promptly flipped open the file that contained Shirley’s personal information which had been sorted out by Jordan.

There were more than ten couple photos of Shirley with her so-called ex-husband pasted in the file, and it could be seen that the man’s features were indeed very similar to his. The only difference was that the man had two dimples on his cheeks, plus he looked way more feminine, so it was natural that the man was not as masculine and striking as Bryan.

The story of how Shirley had loved and gave herself for this man, and how her heart had been broken and eventually dumped by him in the end while even being stabbed by the mistress in their relationship which had caused her to choose to commit suicide out of despair and helplessness were all written at the bottom of the file.

Bryan could hardly steel himself to finish reading her miserable past, hence he flung the file that contained Shirley’s personal information away when he was just halfway through it.

This utterly foolish woman. Why did she commit suicide when she obviously knew that she had been cheated on by that scum?

She was clearly a selfish woman as she did not even think it over for her two children’s sake.

If no one was there to save her when she had jumped into the sea, three lives would have been lost as a result.

“What a dumb woman.” Bryan stared sullenly at the file that had been tossed by him towards the foot of the bed.

Jordan shot a glance towards him and continued, “It seemed that she had found out about her pregnancy after she was saved from drowning, so she had resolved to work hard by signing up for psychology courses during her gestation period. She had even brought her kids around to participate in various perfume competitions when she was supposed to undergo postnatal confinement after giving birth, and all it took was two years for her to acquire her psychiatrist license and the gold standard perfumer certificate. Dr. Thomas has been bringing up her kids on her own for the past few years after that incident.

“Where is that man now?” How could that scum just leave those two lovely and adorable kids behind like that? Wouldn’t his heart hurt at all?

“There are a few varied findings regarding his whereabouts.”

Bryan’s eyes swept past Jordan’s face after he had looked up at him.

Jordan hurriedly continue his reporting, “There’s a version which says that he has smuggled into Africa and is living incognito there due to his enormous debts, while another version has pointed out that he has been stabbed to death by those from the gambling houses.”

Bryan frowned and ordered in the next moment, “Continue digging into it. I want a clear-cut answer, not just some kind of rumours.”

“Noted.”

…

On the other hand, Shirley had gotten a call from Mildred just when she had found Bryan’s doctor in charge.

Mildred spoke in an extremely solemn tone after she had picked up the call, “Someone has infiltrated our company’s network to extract a copy of your personal information recently, Shirley.”

Shirley’s footsteps were halted abruptly, and she promptly made her way to the stairwell after turning around and leaving a few words with the attending doctor. After making sure no one was around, she lowered her voice and asked cautiously, “Isn’t my personal information always been kept confidential all this while? I remember there are also extra layers of protection to enhance the network’s security defense system, right?”

“Yes, that’s true, but the invader has managed to hack into our network and steal a copy of your information. However…” Mildred continued after a moment of pause, “Luckily, I have asked someone to amend your personal information again when you’ve just returned to the country. Do you think that… it’s the children’s father whom is digging into you?”

Shirley’s hands instantly went cold as she had informed Mildred before this that Bryan had come into contact with her children, and it did not seem impossible for him to try to investigate her background now that Mildred had brought it up.

Why was that man looking into her?

Was it due to his roused suspicion about her children?
