Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant

Chapter 29 Mr. George Has Come So Early



"I hear the nurses say that there is a person called Dr. Watson and this person has a good skill and always does everything herself. The way she speaks...is very direct and simple. I think it refers to you, right?' Facing Riley who obviously had no mood and spoke with an icy attitude, William was still able to communicate with her gently and elegantly. His patience and good temper were really rare and valuable. They walked out one after another. Riley totally did not slow down her paces and said without even looking back, "Since you know my personality, please don't waste time on me, Dr. Hardesty." William did not feel angry and instead, he laughed. He took two big steps forward to catch up with Riley and said in a manner full of apologies, "I'm sorry for delaying Dr. Watson's normal time of getting off work by calling you to come over to help me."

Riley suddenly stopped her pace. There was a little exhaustion on her delicate face. Even If she was as invulnerable as what was rumoured, it was hard for her to hide the weary look on her face, "Dr. Hardesty are you going to say next that you want to buy me dinner as compensation for delaying my time?"

Her pair of crystal-clear eyes were seeing through the handsome man in front of her.

However, William smiled. His smile was so pure that there were no flaw and cunningness, "Dr. Watson wants to have a meal? I'm sorry, I have an appointment tonight. How about, next time?"

Riley did not expect him to reply like this. She shook her head as if relieved, "No need, goodbye, Dr. Hardesty."

William nodded, "Dr. Watson, see you tomorrow."

Riley walked out of the hospital with her famished and exhausted body. She simply bought a box of sandwiches at the convenience store in front of the entrance. As she was really tired and her mood was not good, she, a person who normally would not eat fast food, had no choice but to eat it.

When Riley went back to the villa, she found that the atmosphere was not right. Euan, who had not returned for a few days had suddenly come back?

Bah!

He did not accompany Lydia but he came here, why? Had he thought of a new method again so he came to humiliate her?

She opened the door. The blinding large chandelier caused Riley who had not adapted to the light subconsciously narrowed her eyes. Before she opened her eyes again, Euan's cold and stiff voice with obvious displeasure entered her ears.

"You're so unwilling to see me?"

Riley put down her keys and bag. She raised her eyes and saw Euan who was dressed tidily in a suit. He was still wearing the clothes shown in the photo. His real person looked even better than that in the photo. The suit that was ironed meticulously was angular and he looked even more extraordinarily handsome in it.

What were you thinking, Riley!

"I have an OT last minute. I don't know that you'll come back," Riley spoke in a tone as if she was reporting something. She was worn out so she just wanted to go and sleep. She did not have the energy to argue with him.

Euan crossed his legs the other way round. His evil gaze was accompanied by probing, "Hendrix will come over tomorrow, I think you know what you should do."

Damn! Hendrix?

Thinking of this name, Riley felt her scalp tingling. What the hell did Hendrix want to do?

"I'm on duty tomorrow and I'll be back at night. When will he arrive?"

Riley felt soreness in her ankles. She had stood for six hours so her calves were swelling and sore. She had not done the work on the operating table for quite a long time. So, sudden participation in it was very challenging for her.

"Tomorrow is Saturday and he will arrive in the morning. Regarding the matter in the hospital, you settle it yourself."

He only needed to simply speak some words to change her schedule and he looked so domineering that she was not allowed to say a 'no'.

Riley lightly harrumphed, “Euan, I hope you remember what my identity is. I'm a doctor, I have my own duties. It's impossible for me to ignore the patient in order to meet a guest. Hendrix is currently still jobless, right? Ask him to come over at another time."

"Riley!"

Euan slightly turned his head and looked into her eyes. Bolts of lightning were flashing chillingly in his eyes, "Your identity? Do you need me to help you recall what your true identity is? Bah, Dr. Watson, don't forget that your first identity is the young female owner of the George family, you're my wife, the one you have to be loyal to is the George family."

What made her felt pain in her heart was not the content of his words as she had heard these words too many times. Instead, what made her felt pain in her heart was Euan's tone at this moment.

Riley braced up and mocked, "Euan, I'm really sorry. I almost forget that I'm the young female owner of the George family. I almost think that the woman who accompanies you all the time is your wife, thanks for reminding me!"

Getting angry? Infuriated?

Riley, was it true that you would only have a reaction after knowing that matter?

Euan's fair and slender fingers tapped the arm of the sofa, "Also, Lydia will have to do the maternity check-ups at the JD Central Hospital in the future. You fully take the responsibility for that, remember not to play tricks in front of me."

Riley almost laughed. She gave a snort of contempt and confronted Euan. There was no fear in her eyes and she sneered, "Euan, I specialize in cardiology. If Ms. Saunders's heart has a problem, I'll definitely take the responsibility to help her. As for the matter of giving birth a child, I think you have to find others."

Before Euan spoke, Riley clung to the handrail of the staircase and said, "Luckily, Mr. George reminded me just now. I'm the young female owner of the George family, what status does Lydia have in which I have to personally take care of her?"

Let her take care of Lydia? Bah!

Anika had ordered her on phone arrogantly, and he, Euan also coerced her. Did they really think that the young female owner of the George family who was out of favour and unrecognized would not get angry?

Euan sharply sized up her and sneered, "Your boldness is getting bigger and bigger. It seems that I'm too lenient to you so you're so arrogant, huh?"

Riley gripped the handrail tightly and gazed at him, waiting for the next half of his sentence.

Euan slowly got up, tidied up his suit and walked to her within three steps, "You're really not afraid of everything? You want to lose everything?"

Riley's eyes widened inch by inch. With a little fear, she looked up at Euan's handsome cold face, "What are you trying to say?"

Euan put one hand inside his pocket and let out a regal breath, "Whether the Watson family will survive or be ruined, it all depends on your performance. If you don't care, I'll devastate it now."

"No!"

As if her Achilles heel was being controlled by the enemy, Riley abruptly regained her sense. Her arrogance and indifference just now disappeared instantly. She did have an Achilles heel and weakness. If Euan really did something to the Watson family, she could not do anything at all.

The single word that was uttered by Riley in panic slowly brought away his depression. Euan emotionlessly looked askance at her cheeks that were lowered, "You better remember that my patience is limited, I won't keep reminding you of this in advance."

Riley did not remember when Euan left. She only remembered that she stood at the stairway until that her legs became numb, not able to move.

Riley's eyes were dry like a handful of mud and sand but she could not shed a single tear.

Euan left YJ Villa. Elijah, who was sitting in the car, did not dare to say a word.

The car had been driven to the viaduct. As Elijah really did not know where should he drive the car to, he asked timidly, "Boss, tonight...you go where?" Euan glanced at him coldly. The name of a place was going to be uttered but was drawn back again, "Go back!"

Elijah became even more bewildered, "Boss...go...go back to where?"

This time, Euan only gave Elijah a stern look. Elijah then risked his own life to think that Euan was referring to that place.

Seeing that Euan was so angry, he had quarrelled with Riley, right? Elijah pondered for a while. Riley was perhaps the only person who could infuriate Euan.

Because the others who dared to infuriate Euan already died miserably.

However, when Elijah risked his own life to drive the car to YJ Villa, Euan gave him a stern look again, "Who asks you to drive me here?!"

Elijah's heart was almost shattered. He fawned and smiled obsequiously, "Boss...aren't you letting me go back? Not here?"

"You want to be fired is it?!"

Elijah swallowed his saliva, "Then...where does boss want to go?"

It was already ten o'clock. It was not suitable for him to drive around the city, right? What happened to Lydia during the day was seen by Elijah, so he knew that Euan would certainly not go there. While for the George's mansion, he knew that Euan was even more unwilling to go back there.

The place left was Grand Palace Hotel. But if Euan wanted to stay there, he would not order him to drive here at night.

Boss's mind was so unpredictable. Elijah felt that being his assistant was very hard.

Euan was depressed. He sat in the back seat silently for a moment and did not immediately give orders to Elijah. Through the car window, he looked at the window of the second floor with lights on.

The curtains of the floor-to-ceiling window were lowered so he could not see the figure inside. But at this silent night, the scene in front of him apparently had a sound. Her breath was soft while her body fragrance was lingering around faintly.

It seemed that everything was within his reach but was in fact far away.

Shit! Euan was very frustrated.

With his wealth, power, and current status, he could easily get any kind of woman. But, he was unable to get Riley's heart. He felt painful to let her stay by his side but was also unwilling to let her become others' woman.

'Click'.

Riley turned off the bedroom light, covered herself with the blanket and fell asleep.

"Let's go."

Euan ordered while propping his head with his long fingers.

The next day, the sky was full of ominous dark clouds while lightning struck and thunder rumbled.

The chilly rain of the early autumn dropped on the windows, creating the sound effects of a horror movie. The villa with nobody around suddenly looked spooky.

Riley got up, changed her clothes and prepared to go to the hospital as usual. The words Euan said last night suddenly appeared in her mind. She gripped her coat and took off it.

The reason that he did not want to divorce her was to torment her in different ways week after week.

She was bound to divorce him. No matter using what method and no matter what she had to pay for, she, Riley would absolutely not allow others to manipulate her own life!

Thinking of this, the doorbell of the villa rang all of the sudden!

Riley went downstairs and saw the figure on the screen. She was helpless.

Hendrix! Didn't Euan say he would arrive in the morning? But wasn't it too early? It was only seven o'clock now!

Hendrix stood in the rain and wind while holding an umbrella. An iconic red Ferrari was parked behind him, "Euan, Riley, have you guys gotten up? Quickly open the door, it's raining, so cold."

Riley gritted her teeth in anger. What the hell did this guy want to do!

Seeing Hendrix's mouth opening and closing, Riley sincerely wanted to use a cloth to cover it!

But, when she reached out and was about to open the door, her action paused abruptly!

If she opened the door now and let Hendrix find out that Euan was not here, then he would certainly...

Damn!

Riley scratched her hair, took her phone and dialled Euan's number.

On the other side, Euan, who was woken up by the phone, replied in a husky and sexy tone, "What's the matter?" Riley propped one hand on the wall while closing her eyes, "Hendrix is at the door of the villa now, what should I do?"
