Sitting in the car, I grabbed a cotton ball and dabbed some medicine on the wound. I closed my eyes.
Lilian had been the campus belle in our university, she was beautiful, smart, outstanding. Like anyone else, I had fallen for her at first sight and began pursuing her obsessively. But she rejected me outright, so I kept my feelings hidden.
Then one day, out of nowhere, she approached me and agreed to be my girlfriend. She even introduced me to her best friend and that friend's younger brother. From that day on, we started dating.
I poured my heart out for her. I truly believed she loved me. Her parents ran a small OB-GYN hospital.
After graduation, she asked me to work there. So I rejected my dad and joined her family's hospital. Back then, Sommerset Hospital was on the verge of bankruptcy. I begged my dad to sell our hospital's equipment to them at a huge discount.
Combined with my medical skills, Sommerset Hospital finally turned around and became successful. Everything was moving in the right direction.
But then, her best friend's brother, Barry, returned from abroad.
