Chapter 31: Let's See how Long You can Pretend

After all, Alice Roberts is a well-known andrologist abroad, and there's not even a single patient to see her at home. Who can take this easily?

He also heard about that a man broke into Alice Roberts' office yesterday, and if he was right, that man was Edward Smith.

"Alice, has Edward Smith been bothering you these days?"

"Ah? No, no." Alice Roberts pauses for a moment, and then shakes her head and gives Julie Swift, who is about to say something, an eye, suggesting her not to speak.

A flash of gloom moves in his eyes, John Blake lowers his head, losing all appetite. Does Alice Roberts lie to him because she doesn't want him to interfere in their affairs?

However, John Blake is wrong this time. Alice Roberts doesn't want to tell him because she feels sorry about Edward Smith hurting John Blake last time.

She doesn't say it because she doesn't want John Blake to get hurt in another conflict with Edward Smith.

Julie Swift wonders why Alice Roberts didn't mention that someone was pestering her. And with this question the atmosphere seems to turn cold and Dr. Blake, who always behaves gently, doesn't speak a thing.

In the afternoon, there is still no patient.

Alice Roberts is getting anxious. If there is no patient all day long, she will lose her bonus and people will think she's not professional. After all, she only had one patient yesterday which she didn't even complete.

She starts to worry!

Julie Swift offers to ask the outpatient department if something is wrong there or they thought she was off work today.

"Thank you, Julie."

"No big deal."

Julie Swift grins, dressed in a pink nurse costume, and goes in a hurry.
