Always There: Win My Ex-wife Back

Chapter 41: Do You Know Her 

During the whole day, Michelle had been thinking about Rose's phone call.She didn't have the energy for anything else, not even to work.George tried to tease her several times, but she ignored him as if he was thin air.

At lunch, she only took a few bites before she returned to her office and remained there in a daze.

All of a sudden, a rhythmical sound of high heels clicking on the floor reached Michelle's ears.She turned her head curiously and saw Gerard walking towards her arm in arm with a woman.

Michelle was stunned.

Before she could react, he and his companion were already standing in front of her.

"Go through the procedure to hospitalize Miss Townsley."

Gerard's voice was steady and his expression neutral.

There was no emotion showing on his cold face.

Although no one could deny that he was a handsome man, for some reason, Michelle thought George was more appealing than him now.

"I'm sorry.You can contact the head nurse to start the procedure."

Ignoring him, Michelle lowered her head and pretended to read a file.

However, her mind was a mess, wondering why Gerard would show up in front of her again.

After meeting him in the boutique the other day, the man disappeared, but now it seemed that he came back to haunt her.

Nevertheless, it didn't matter if this Miss Townsley was his woman or not, the hospitalization procedure wasn't her responsibility, so she shouldn't be held accountable for neglecting these two distinguished guests.

"Gerard, look at her attitude! How come the hospital that your company invested in treats patients like this?"

Before Gerard could say anything, the nice-looking woman in a red dress, rebuked her in a sweet voice as if she owned the hospital.

At the sound of that, Michelle was very unpleased, but she couldn't respond.So she pretended that it wasn't with her.

Gerard didn't take his eyes off his ex-wife for a second.

After a long time, the corner of his lips raised in a smile.

"Come on, Chelle."

The moment Michelle's nickname came out of the man's mouth, the three of them stiffened.

For a moment, the room fell into an awkward silence.A trace of embarrassment flashed across Michelle's face.She didn't know whether she should lash out her anger or what.

Raising her head, she looked at him with hatred.

'This damn man! Has he suddenly forgotten how to be discreet?'’ In the past, he was the one who was most afraid of getting involved with her.But now he seemed to be challenging her again and again as he insisted on calling her by that nickname in public.Furious, Michelle stood up and looked at the corridor before slamming the office's door.She didn't want others to witness the altercation between her and the man now.

"Gerard, what the hell are you doing?" she asked through her teeth.

She could sense that he was scheming once again.

As for the woman in red aside, Michelle completely ignored her.

"I've told you.Go through the procedure to hospitalize Miss Townsley."

It was rare for Gerard to repeat himself without losing his temper.He even politely handed the medical report to Michelle for fear that she hadn't heard him clearly.

Taking the pages and pages of the report, she read it quickly.

There were lots of insignificant items in it, indicating that Miss Townsley wasn't ill at all.

Nevertheless, Gerard was now an important patron of the hospital.

The head doctor himself had personally written him the report.

As she saw this, Michelle thought it wasn't convenient to call the head nurse anymore, so she wrote in the report herself and ignored the two people standing in the room.

"Gerard, do you know her?"

Townsley asked in a spoiled tone while she held the man's arm.There was no denying that she was jealous as her eyes remained fixed on Michelle's beautiful face.
