She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor-Chapter 173 - Waylon Lewis Arrives

Chapter 173: Chapter 173 Waylon Lewis Arrives

Miss Williams closed her eyes, feeling like her lungs were about to burst with frustration, “Don’t talk to me.”

…

The next day, Miss Williams sat by the window, silently letting out a sigh as she looked outside.

Every morning, a female doctor would arrive on time to change her dressing. Miss Williams was healing well; the bruises on her body had faded considerably, no longer as shockingly visible as before.

Seeing that the door was closed, Miss Williams took a couple of looks at the female doctor, who was focused on changing her dressing. However, the intense gaze from Miss Williams did not escape her notice.

“Is something wrong, Miss Williams?” the female doctor asked.

“Do you have a cellphone?” Miss Williams lowered her voice.

The female doctor looked towards the door, and Miss Williams also glanced at the door, shaking her head like a thief.

“Lies.” Who else doesn’t have a cellphone these days?

“Lend it to me for a bit,” Miss Williams raised an eyebrow.

The female doctor kept her head down as Miss Williams turned back to keep an eye on the door, lowering her voice even more in fear of being overheard, “I really need it urgently.”

“Miss Williams, I’m sorry.”

“…” Miss Williams didn’t give up, “Please, I’m begging you. I really need to make a quick call to my family. Just five minutes, no! Just one minute. Liam Cloud won’t find out, I promise you won’t get in trouble.”

Miss Williams patted the bed to assure the female doctor.

After the female doctor finished applying the medicine, she pulled down the clothes on Miss Williams’s back without saying a word.

Miss Williams couldn’t let this opportunity slip, “Ahem, that bastard Liam Cloud shouldn’t be home today, right?”

The female doctor glanced up and immediately bowed her head again.

“He’s not at home, he won’t know…”

“I am home!”

A voice suddenly exploded from above Miss Williams’s head.

Miss Williams startled, turning around shakily, “…”

“Ahem…” The female doctor coughed lightly in embarrassment, standing up and respectfully said, “Mr. Cloud, Miss Williams’s wounds have been treated well, and the recovery is going smoothly. You can rest assured.”

“Hmm, go out then.”

The female doctor hurried out at breakneck speed, as if she were a sprinter.

Liam Cloud, with one hand in his pocket, looked down at Miss Williams from his greater height, “Continue talking.”

“Heh heh.” Miss Williams chuckled dryly, feeling like she had been caught red-handed.

“I’m finding that you’re getting more and more talkative, even trying to escape by using others. How smart you are, Hope Williams,” Liam Cloud said, looking at her with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.

She could hear the implied meaning in his words.

Miss Williams grumbled in her mind, silently cursing Liam Cloud’s ancestors.

“What would you like for breakfast?”

Just as Liam Cloud’s words fell, the sound of airplane propellers roared overwhelmingly from outside.

Footsteps sounded outside, and Wesley Ruiz was at the door, “Big Boss, Waylon Lewis is bringing people over.”

They sure arrived fast. Liam Cloud hummed in acknowledgment, his expression still calm, but inevitably a bit grim.

“You can have your previously favorite seafood porridge,” Liam Cloud suggested softly.

Miss Williams sighed, “Liam Cloud, I’m leaving.”

“Who said so?” Liam Cloud brought her slippers over, “Come down and eat.”

Miss Williams didn’t know what he was up to, but she followed him downstairs anyway. She walked slowly, and Liam Cloud patiently supported her.

“Are you planning to remarry Waylon Lewis?” Liam Cloud suddenly asked.

“Probably.”

She loved Waylon Lewis, and Waylon Lewis loved her. She wanted to give them both a chance to start over.

Liam Cloud glanced at her and said, “Don’t allow it.”

Miss Williams saw a chilly look in his eyes, “Why? Because of your grudge against him? Can you tell me what happened eight years ago, Liam Cloud?”

Liam Cloud was indeed a ruthless man; everyone said he was unmistakably a tyrant. People had to steer clear of him, and those who opposed him met death.

Miss Williams understood Liam Cloud; being harsh in his environment was a form of self-preservation, intimidating everyone. He wasn’t a bad person and wouldn’t kill without reason.

There might have been a misunderstanding back then.

Miss Williams didn’t want to see Liam Cloud and Waylon Lewis clash. If there was a misunderstanding, she wanted to clear it up.

She wanted to understand the truth of what happened that year.

She could feel the hand holding her suddenly tighten, his expression darkening as if touching upon a forbidden subject.

Liam Cloud rarely showed such a daunting expression in front of her, “You?”

“Stop talking about it. Don’t bring it up again, understood? I’ve told you, there’s no reconciling with Waylon, and I don’t want you to remarry him because I like you.”

Miss Williams was suddenly taken aback.

What was this guy saying?

“Why are you looking at me like that? Can’t I like someone?” Liam Cloud was somewhat flustered by her surprised and incredulous gaze.

“… Are you joking?”

“Look me in the eyes. If I’m joking, may I be hit by a car when I go out.”

Liam Cloud’s usually lazy and indifferent gaze was now unprecedentedly earnest.

Miss Williams was taken aback with shock.

She never considered the possibility of affection between her and Liam Cloud… because of how he treated her…

Ha!

Miss Williams didn’t bring it up, but before, he had never treated her like a woman. To teach her self-defense, he played the role of a kidnapper, forcefully grabbing and throwing her to the ground.

That was just three months after she had given birth to Luke and Willow.

Absolutely inhuman.

Liam Cloud was indeed good to her, but that kind of goodness, she always categorized as familial love. Miss Williams always saw Liam Cloud as family too.

So this confession came out of nowhere for Miss Williams.

She was defenseless.

Watching Miss Williams’s excessive fright, Liam Cloud almost thought he had confessed to her with a ghostly expression.

“All right, stop looking at me that way; just pretend I said it on a whim,” Liam Cloud said, tugging her downstairs.

Miss Williams stabilized herself on the staircase, quickly regained her composure, and hurried to catch up, while the man in front started to slow down, continuing at her pace.

A loud “boom” sounded.

The carved double doors were pushed open.
