Chapter 731: Sealing the deal
“Jacob, what are you doing?” A voice behind him shouted, but he was busy with a patient.
He ignored her.
“I want you to take deep breaths for me.” He instructed the young man, who sat in the bed as he moved his stethoscope along his back.
He knew that she was not done with him yet, but he preferred to care for his patients than do what she asked him to do. Besides, the hospital was swamped with people who needed him.
“Jacob!” She was now standing in front of him, on the other side of the bed. “I thought we had a deal.” It seemed she was not giving up yet.
“Doc, the lady seems to be talking to you.” The man shifted his gaze from him to the woman beside him, confused and slightly finding it awkward to be caught between them.
But he did notice that his eyes were glancing at her longer than necessary. Well, she was indeed beautiful and sexy. Men could not help but turn their heads at her.
.....
“Cassie, can’t you see that I have a ton of patients to take care of today?” His eyes widened at her as if making a point and his hands gestured to the pack emergency room.
He promised he would try to make it to the meeting, but at the moment, he could not just leave his patients. A fire broke out in a nearby building, and many patients were still coming in by the minute.
“I can see that, but surely, the other doctors could handle their care.” Cassie pouted as if she was disappointed about the entire situation.
As much as he would like to indulge her and make her smile again. At the moment, the lives of these people were his priority. The board meeting of his new company would have to wait for another time.
Cassie still had to learn that being a doctor was not something he did for the money. He genuinely cared about his patients and would never leave their side until he was sure they would be ok.
“Cassie, this is what I want you to do?” He left his patient and pulled Cassie out of the cubicle where he treated his patient. “Come with me.”
Once outside and in an empty hallway, he finally faced her. “What?” She looked up to him with that stubborn eyes, ready to fight with him because of what she thought was right.
“I am a doctor first before whatever all of you want me to be. You said that you will be there to help me, then this is what I need you to do.” He paused, studying her, assuring himself that she was listening to him this time.
“Ok. Fine.” She finally settled down as her hands crossed her chest. “What is it?” She might not like what he had to say, but he knew she would still do it because he trusted her.
“I want you to have a lawyer draw up an agreement making you my CEO.” He knew that was the only way that he did not have to think of that company that he never wanted in the first place.
She deserved it anyway, and besides, she was better at this job than he ever was. He had tried to study it. But between his profession, his fellowship, and the company, he had barely time for anything else.
“You could not just give your company away.” She shouted at him, earning him some glares from the passersby.
He decided to pull her inside an empty stock room for medical supplies and lock the door. He did not want the others to learn that he had inherited a multimillion-dollar company. He liked his privacy the way it was as long as possible.
“I can, and I just did.” For him, his decision was already final. The paper works were just for formality’s sake.
“That is not how this works. Besides, why would you give me the company? What if I take it from you?” Now, Cassie looked exasperated, as if what he said was out of this world.
Well, if it was another person and not Cassie. Then, he would think hard before entrusting the company to anyone else. But this was Cassie.
It was a no-brainer.
He would give up the company to her in a heartbeat.
“Because you are you.” He answered her as if that should answer all her questions, but she only stared at him as if he had gone crazy. “Will you steal it from under me?” He asked, directly looking into her eyes.
“Of course not.” Cassie automatically answered him as if what he said was so unthinkable.
“Precisely why you are perfect for the job.” He told her as his hands wrapped around her shoulders. “I know you will do better than me in this job.” He pulled her even closer to his body.
If the worst-case scenario, she would decide to run away with his company and money. He would not probably blame her. He would not mind if she took that away from him.
???????????????? ???????????????????????????? ???????????????????????? ???????????????????? ???????? ????????????????????-????????????.????????????
He believed it was not enough payment for what his brother had done to her. For all the troubles and trauma she had to endure. And for all the help she gave to him.
“You think so,” Cassie questioned him as if she was doubting herself. But he could already tell that she would manage just fine.
She was more resilient and more persistent than everyone thought. She would not have survived under Nick’s rule if she was not beneficial in his operations.
He believed she was the brain of the corporation and not his foolish and evil brother. And he could trust her to manage the company left to him by his father.
“I know so.” He tilted her face up so she would be looking at him. “You will do a great job in running that place.” He assured her.
However, a knock interrupted their conversation as a nurse called for his attention. “I will be out in a few seconds.” He told her before turning his attention to the woman in his arms.
Then, he lowered his head to her until their lips finally touched, sealing the deal between them.
