Sean wasn't happy about the special treatment. He threw a tantrum until Shakira finally agreed to play online games with him. Cathy and Gideon were online. Shakira invited them to team up and play a game and they quickly accepted the request.
Cathy said Shakira's kitties were very cute over the voice chat. Gideon said casually, "Shakira, do you not want us to visit you?" Sean readily said, protesting. "He's right. You're hiding something from us!"
Cathy immediately became excited. "Hiding something? A toyboy?" Gideon's voice sounded even more gloomy. "It seems Shakira is not regarding us as her close friends anymore. With pressure coming from all sides, Shakira had no choice but to surrender. Shakira said, "It's not convenient for me to have you over right now. Maybe later!" Hearing them sighing in unison, Shakira continued. "To make it up for you, I'll cook for you. I want to discuss something with Gideon anyway"
Shakira thought about something and said, "How about tomorrow afternoon? I'll finish the work at the clinic at six. After that. I'll stop by Jasmin's office. How about we meet at Sean's place?" Hearing that Shakira would be cooking for them, the three of them cheered excitedly.
Cathy was the most excited. She shouted, "Great! I finally get to by Shakira's cooking. A few days ago, the old man bragged about the food that Shakira made him. I was so mad!" Matthew and Cathy were truly a funny pair.
Holding back her laughter, Shakira said, "TII buy some veggies and pork online and make your favorite food." Cathy said,

Shakira raised her eyebrow, "Of course, I won't leave you out." Sean said, I'm so touched! You still remember my favorite dish!" But Gideon stayed quiet. Shakira knew he was waiting for her. With a bright smile, she said. "And Gideon's favorite food, too, Sure enough, Gideon couldn't hide his joy anymore. He said, "Great. After they cheered Sean up, they started a game.
After that, Sean finally checked his phone, which had been buzzing with new es
His mom, busy finding him a date, had sent him several voice messages: [Sean, you must seize this great opportunity. This girl is amazing. She's like you. She loves freedom and is outgoing. I'm sure you'll like her.]
[I've sent you the info. You'll meet her three days later. I've booked the restaurant. You better make a good impression on her this time!] Sean replied with an "ok" emoji to his mom
not satisfied with his indifferent attitude. She sent a message to him again: "Your cousin happens to be in Sean's mother w.. Crescentville too. I've asked her to keep an eye on you. Don't play any tricks with me, okay?"
Sean lazily stroked his chin and replied: (Got it. Don't worry!" He thought his mom was too naive. He thought, 'Does she think having someone keeping an eye on me will work?' He laughed and decided to figure out something to secretly run the date!
In the evening, while giving Walter acupuncture treatment, Shakira said she would return late tomorrow. Walter, lying on the bed, turned back to her. "Isn't the filming of the show on bold?"
Shakira blinked and said calmly. "Recently, I've not only been helping with the show but also at the hospital. Staying home is too boring anyway. It is good to help people out."
Walter didn't deny it. He agreed with her and added, "Just make sure to keep your phone with you at all times." Shakira smiled, "I will!"
Continuing the acupuncture treatment, she suddenly asked casually, "Walter, if you find out that I lied to you in the future, would you hate me?"

Shakira felt Walter's muscle tense for a moment. In a deep voice, he asked instead of answering her questions, "So, what have you been hiding from me?"
Shakira knew his reaction was normal. It mattered to him. After all, nobody could accept being deceived even if it was a well-intentioned lie.
Her eyes glittered so they were not dull anymore. She raised her head and looked into his eyes. Shakira smiled and burst into laughter. "Why you are so serious about it? I am just jokingThis text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.
She pouted and mumbled to herself, "No need to ask. If I dared to lie to you, you'd definitely strangle me." Walter quietly stared at her for a long time.
Then he raised his hand and flicked her forehead skillfully. It seemed that he believed that she was just joking. He coldly chuckled. "Be good."
Shakira stuck her tongue out at him, looking like a naughty girl. Walter's thin lips curved in a mild smile like he didn't mind. what Shakira said just now at all.
Early in the next morning. Shakira fed the kittens milk before leaving. When she arrived at the hospital, she noticed the film crew was rearranging the set. Surprised, she asked a crew member, "Is the filming on hold?"
The staff member smiled at her, "Dr. Lonely Bird, you might not know it yet. Mr. Jones returned the Banks family's investment. But Mr. Lopez came in early this morning and offered to invest more so the cash flow problem can continue filming." was solved. We
Someone else said, "Fiona's drama actually made more people talk about our show. The higher-ups are even more committed to making sure the show will record the everyday life in the hospital."
Shakira thought, 'Walter? Of course, he is a capitalist. Now is the perfect time to make some money. He definitely wants a chance. Shakira went to her office as usual to do the cleaning, ready to start her day.
At lunchtime, Shakira rubbed her stiff neck and went to the door to pick up her delivery food. The canteen was crowded and noisy so she tried her best to avoid it.
After she stepped out of the door, she was surprised. She saw Felix sitting on a bench in the corridor. When Felix saw her, he was clearly nervous and a bit flustered.
"Dr. Lonely Bird," Felix took a deep breath and plucked the courage to say, "Dr. Lonely Bird, I came here to apologize for what happened the other day."
Shakira said nonchalantly, "No need to apologize to me. I never care about strangers' opinions." Her voice was low but made Felix's heart sink.
Shakira wasn't interested in talking to him. She picked up her delivery food and closed the door. After lunch, she quickly went to have some rest. She had appointments in the afternoon
After the alarm went off, ending her lunch break, she went to the restroom to wash her face to clear her head She noticed that Felix was still there but walked past him without glancing at him.

After finishing her work in the afternoon, Shakira took a taxi to Jasmin's office. She ordered some groceries to be Sean's place on her phone. The taxi stopped in front of a building. Shakira went straight into the inpatient department building and took the elevator to the top floor.
The whole floor reeked of pungent alcohol. She confidently walked toward the last patient room in the empty hallway. Just when Shakira placed her hand on the lock of the door, she suddenly stopped and turned to Felix, who had followed her
