Forced Marriage: My Wife, My Redemption by Lilyheart

Chapter 40: Suspicion

Davis doubt lingered as Ethan pushed to the same door Jessica has just exited HOD physiotherapy. The important guest Bella was expecting was actually Davis.

Ethan adjusted his suit properly glancing at himself briefly before he raised his hand to knock on the door. Bella’s soft voice filtered through the slightly open door "Come in", she answered followed by the flipping sound of papers.

Ethan pushed in the door wide enough and gently pushed Davis into the room. Davis heart skipped a bit, the familiar faint lavender scent lingered in the air. Davis suspicion widened more.

"Good day Ms. Edward", Ethan greeted with a polite smile as he stretched his hand for a handshake.

"Good day Assistant Ethan", she smiled lightly, her dimples visible and her eyes as clear as water. Ethan felt his heart skip a beat and he quickly retracted his hand, Davis smiled lightly with a knowing look.

"Please take a seat", Bella said as she pointed to the couch. She returned to a side corner in her office and quickly prepared tea for them. Carrying the tea to her guest she gently and cautiously set it down.

Davis looked at the lady before him so many thoughts going on in his mind. How good it will be if he can get to know her through this lady.

"Dr. Bella, based on our discussion we are here for the examination and to discuss the possible measures to ensure he gets back on his feet in the next possible time", Ethan said.

Bella nodded as gracefully arise from her seat and walked over to Davis, she felt the legs made some deductions on her discovery before she stepped back and returned to her seat in silent.
