The Doctor And The CEO Chapter 138
Advertisement
Emily messaged Matthew to go alone to the hospital and she will meet him there.
After Emily and Patrick reached the forensics team and discussed whatever they wanted to about the victim and asked them if they could get any more evidence but they too said they can't.
Emily discussed her theories with them and they did confirm that it is a woman who is a murderer. They too deduced the same.
Patrick already got to know that the murderer is a woman as one of his assistants informed him two days back that the fingerprints already matched with the woman's fingerprints of the Jonathan murder case but he decided to keep this information to himself for now and not share it with Emily.
Emily then discussed other important stuff with the forensics team and then the two left from there.
Patrick dropped her at the hospital and she told him not to pick her up as she would come with Matthew.
Patrick too agreed with it and gave her a peck before she got out the car.
This scene was witnessed by Lisa and Steve who were standing a few steps away from them.
Steve came earlier but was waiting for Lisa and after she came the two were about to head inside together but Steve suddenly stopped when he saw Patrick's car at the entrance of the hospital he wondered why was Patrick here.
Saturday night he saw Emily leave with Patrick and was hoping it didn't mean anything and he even ignored Lisa's words but now after witnessing this kind of a scene with his own eyes he couldn't believe they are already together.
Around 48 hours back they were separated and in 48 hours they already got back together, he remembered Patrick's words and got annoyed.
"Didn't I tell you these two would ultimately end up together, some day." Lisa reminded him what she said.
"I have eyes and I can see that, I am in pain can't you not hurt me more with your words? I am your best friend." Steve rudely scolded her.
"That's exactly why I am telling you the truth, no matter how hard it is, just accept it and move on. There might be someone out there who loves you a lot can't you give that person a chance?"

"No I can't. Emily is the only woman I ever loved and I would ever will, I'd rather be alone my whole life than be with anyone else." He announced angrily and went inside the hospital.
Lisa sadly looked at his back and stood rooted on her spot, his words really hurt her a lot.
"You should practice what you preach." A man standing behind her whispered in her ears, Lisa got startled but she didn't have to turn back to know who it was.
"Aren't you being shameless eavesdropping on us." she turned back after saying those words and glared at the man who was grinning at her shamelessly.
"Come on Lisa, accept it, that Steve is useless and he doesn't deserve you. Just move on from him, there might be someone out there who loves you a lot can't you give that person a chance?"
Matthew said the same words to her that she earlier told Steve, he was teasing her.
"That's none of your business." Lisa turned around and was about to leave but Matthew held her wrist and forced her to turn towards him.
"How is this none of my business?" He looked serious while asking her this question, his smile was gone.
"How is this any of your business?" She angrily glared at him.
"Lisa, have you forgotten how close we were, you used to take my advice all the time, what the hell has happened to you that you became so rude to me?" Matt couldn't take it anymore, Friday evening too she was rude to him but he just let it go assuming she was in a bad mood.
But today too she is being rude to him and it seemed like she was trying to avoid him.
Over the last few years when she was away studying, he used to occasionally message her to check on her but she ignored all his messages, then too he assumed she was busy with studies but now the way she angrily glared at him, it was obvious something was not right with her.
Matthew is not someone who has a lot of patience, if there is something on his mind, he prefers asking it directly instead of over thinking about it.
"Matthew, let go." she warned him as he was holding her wrist tightly.

"First tell me why the hell are you upset with me? What did I do?"
"Nothing"
"Lisa I know you better than you think."
"Matthew this is our workplace, I don't want to create a scene here."
"I don't care." Matthew tightened his hold on her wrist.
"Matt what are you doing?" Daniel's clear voice rang and both of them turned towards him.
Daniel parked his car and was heading towards the main entrance of the hospital but he saw Matthew and Lisa, it looked like they were quarreling and it was clearly evident he was forcefully holding her wrist and was not letting her go.
Although Matthew is his friend, Lisa is the intern working under him and he felt responsible for her, so even though it would be awkward he just decided to meddle in here.
Matthew quickly let her wrist go as Daniel suddenly appeared.
"Nothing, we were just talking." Lisa informed Daniel to avoid the awkwardness and then she left to go inside.
"Actually…" Matthew felt weird how to explain, although Lisa said they were just talking, he knew Daniel is not a fool to believe it, he just let Lisa go as he didn't want to make her feel weird.
"You don't have to explain yourself to me but we are literally at a public place and here you are a senior doctor and she is our junior, so please be mindful of your actions at the workplace." Daniel warned him.
It was none of his business but it was their workplace and they were in public so it was the right thing to do.
"I understand, I am sorry." Matthew too later realized how wrong he was.
He was frustrated by Lisa's attitude and forgot what he was doing.
"Don't apologize to me, I know it is none of my business but…"
"Yeah it is our workplace, you were not wrong." Matthew awkwardly smiled at him.
"Don't feel bad, I am not judging you, I am sure you have a reason to act like that but just be mindful of your surroundings." Daniel patted him on the shoulder.
"Yeah I'll be, don't mention this to Emily." Matthew requested Daniel, as Emily would kill him if she knew what he did, although it is not a big deal but still she will kill him for making her sister feel uncomfortable.
"I am not going to mention it to anyone." Daniel gently smiled at him and they headed inside together.
After finishing some urgent work Daniel called Patrick to know more updates on the murder case.
"Hi Patrick"
"I was about to call you." Patrick informed him.
"You got any update on that murder case?"
"No, we couldn't yet identify who the victim is."
"So, what did you find?"
"Since there are no leads on the murder, I decided to delve deeper into the information you gave me and probably there is more to all of this that meets the eye."
"What do you mean?"
"Daniel, it seems people who are behind the two previous attacks that happened on Rachel where the people who came to murder her committed suicide, are not someone we can easily deal with."
"What do you mean?"
"The officer I assigned for this task followed the lead and tried to dig in more information but today morning he met with an accident, his condition is currently critical."
"What?" Daniel exclaimed in shock.
"Yeah, Daniel, these people are not easy to deal with, we need to be more cautious, I can't put my associates' lives in danger so I won't be leading on it legally."
"I understand Patrick, don't dig deeper into it for now."
"It's okay, I won't assign any of my colleagues, I myself would dig deeper into it."
"No Patrick, it will be dangerous."
"There is no other option."
"There is one option, give me some time, I'll explain everything to you later. I again request you don't do anything in haste."
"Fine, for now I'll try to find more information about the guy who was murdered, but one thing is for sure, the people behind this guy's murder and the people behind those two attacks on Rachel are different people."
"May I ask you how you came to this conclusion?" Daniel didn't doubt Patrick but he just wanted to understand his thought process.
