She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 102 - Just Didn’t Care

Chapter 102: Chapter 102 Just Didn’t Care

Old Master Lewis watched with a relieved smile as Hope Williams composed herself.

Joy Ward, having regained her energy, was both angry and resentful. She stood up abruptly and charged at Hope Williams, reaching out to scratch her face.

“Ah, Hope Williams…”

Hope Williams dodged to the side, quickly avoiding the attack, and Joy Ward was immediately restrained by a bodyguard, her venomous eyes glaring furiously at Hope Williams.

Joy Ward was dragged out, and her piercing screams could still be heard from afar.

Hope Williams’s expression was indifferent; the anger that had been on her face had now returned to its usual passive gentleness.

...

Old Master Lewis let out a sigh, “Alright, all the distressing matters are dealt with. Hope, stay for dinner with me tonight.”

Hope Williams smiled apologetically, “Sorry, Grandfather, I have things to take care of today, I’m afraid I can’t.”

Luke and Willow, her two treasures, were still at home, and it wouldn’t be good for her to return too late.

Seeing the displeasure on Old Master Lewis’s face, Hope Williams added, “I will come and have dinner with you when I have time in the next few days.”

After Hope Williams had said this, it wouldn’t be right for Old Master Lewis to press further. “You’re not lying?”

Hope Williams nodded with a smile, “No lies.”

Old Master Lewis’s gaze shifted to Waylon Lewis, and his previously affectionate voice took on an authoritative tone, “Waylon, escort Little Hope.”

He glared sharply at Waylon Lewis as if to say that if Waylon dared to refuse, Old Master Lewis would teach him a lesson.

The chill on Waylon Lewis’s handsome face eased marginally as he nodded in agreement, “Mhm.”

Hope Williams said goodbye to Old Master Lewis and left the room with Waylon Lewis.

They walked together along the wide pebbled path. Waylon Lewis spoke softly, “I wrongly accused you before, I’m sorry.”

Hope Williams nodded, “You should apologize to me.”

She fully deserved this apology.

“So, you forgive me?”

Hope Williams looked up at him, “Whether I forgive or not, what difference does it make?” She paused then continued, “I’m not the kind of person who dwells on things.”

Waylon Lewis slightly curved his lips, “When did you start studying medicine?”

“I have always studied medicine; I did even before we got married,” Hope Williams paused, a trace of bitterness crossing the depths of her eyes. He didn’t even know this; it showed just how invisible she had been to him as his wife.

She pressed her lips together in a faint smile, quickly coming to terms with it.

“I’ve never heard you mention it.”

A shadow flickered in Hope Williams’s eyes, “You simply didn’t care.”

“I will care from now on.”

“What?”

“I admit that I neglected you before. From now on, I won’t.” Waylon Lewis’s gaze remained firmly on Hope Williams, not wavering for a moment.

Hope Williams suddenly realized that his deep eyes hid a trace of affection.

Her heart fluttered, and she remembered the remarriage he had mentioned a few days ago.

They say a man settles down after having children. Was his wish to remarry her also because of Luke and Willow?

Thinking this, Hope Williams couldn’t help but ask, “Because of Luke and Willow?”

Waylon Lewis went silent for two seconds before nodding, “Yes, and not only that. It’s also because of you. I’ve said before that I want you to be the woman by my side, always.”

Hope Williams looked down and smiled slightly, “So, President Lewis likes me?”

Waylon Lewis’s lips pursed, his eyes narrowing almost imperceptibly.

Like? He had never considered it, simply following his instincts.

He felt happy when with her, and when not, her image would come to his mind. He would get angry seeing her with other men and incredibly worried seeing her hurt, fearful of losing her.

These were emotions he had never experienced with any other woman.

Seeing Waylon Lewis silent, Hope Williams’s eyes twinkled, she laughed softly looking down, “It’s fine, you don’t have to answer. Let’s leave it at this; I can go back by myself.”

“You want to worry Grandfather?” Waylon Lewis frowned slightly.

“What?” How did her going back on her own relate to worrying Grandfather?

“Grandfather is worried about you, a girl, going back alone at night; he said it’s dangerous and asked me to escort you. By insisting on going back by yourself, wouldn’t that make him worry?”

Hope Williams tugged at her lip.

Waylon Lewis had already walked to the car and opened the door, lifting his eyebrows in gesture from the doorway.

Hope Williams felt a bit helpless but finally got into the car, bending over.

Waylon Lewis stood beside her, and they inadvertently leaned very close. Hope Williams’s chest trembled slightly, and she looked somewhat uneasy.

Waylon Lewis got into the driver’s seat.

The car drove smoothly, and Hope Williams watched out the window; she didn’t know when the sky had opened up into a torrential downpour. However, Waylon Lewis drove very steadily, and Hope Williams felt secure.

Soon the car stopped steadily at the entrance of the apartment, and Waylon Lewis took out an umbrella and walked to the passenger door to open it.

A chill rushed in, causing Hope Williams to hunch her shoulders slightly. Waylon Lewis held the umbrella over her head without letting a single drop of rain touch her.

Hope Williams had rushed out to see her grandfather today and forgotten to wear a coat, now only a thin shirt wrapped around her delicate body. Seeing this, Waylon Lewis naturally raised his hand to draw her closer to his side.

Silent night, rain all around, a single umbrella sheltering two people.

The tranquil-faced woman looked up at the incredibly handsome man before her.

In such close proximity, he wrapped his arms around her, and she felt the warmth of his embrace.

On the way back, the rain grew heavier and heavier, showing no sign of stopping.

Hope Williams watched the rain outside, while Waylon Lewis watched Hope Williams.

Hope Williams’s eyes fluttered then she looked away, “Ahem… You want to come upstairs? With the rain so heavy, maybe wait until it lessens a bit?”

Out of politeness, Hope Williams tentatively offered.

“Sure,” replied Waylon Lewis.

His acceptance came very readily.

Hope Williams was taken aback, somehow feeling that he had been staring at her just waiting for her to say those words.
