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."

"Just remember what we agreed," he reminded her, "be on call 24/7. And don't you dare vanish on me again like you did last time. I won't be so forgiving!"

"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.
