Chapter 32 Her Identity Exposed!


Alaric had a feeling he had just opened Pandora's box by hiring her.

"Don't give me that look. I'm your doctor, and your well-being is my priority. I'll get your records from Silas, and you can get back to work."

Having delivered her advice, Galatea turned on her heel and left, her departure pulling a wry smile from Alaric. This woman was becoming more audacious by the second!

Silas Moon was nothing short of a marvel in getting things done, and soon, Galatea had Alaric's medical files in hand. The files were tucked under her arm as she exited the hospital. Just as she was sliding behind the steering wheel of her car, a voice called out from behind.

"Miss Galatea."

At the sound, Galatea spun around, surprised to find it was Griffon.

"Griffon, what brings you here? Looking for Alaric, I presume?" After all, as far as Griffon was concerned, she and Alaric were a couple.

"It's not Alaric I'm actually here to see it's you."

"Me?" Galatea was taken aback.
