Paths that 5

Chapter

I turned off my phone after seeing the message sent successfully

I fell asleep with a sleep mask on

I was woken up by an air hostess when the flight landed at the Aelford Airport

Vicente had been waiting at the exit early

He snatched my luggage

I had to follow behind him

In the car, Vicente had prepared a blanket to cover my legs

Seeing him busy and sweating profusely, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter

Vicente, I am not a kid anymore.” 

Vicente stopped me from moving the blanket away

Jaliyah, you are always seen as a kid in my eyes. I promised Mr. and Mrs. Wagner that I would safely take you home.” 

Looking at the familiar night scene outside the window, I heaved a sigh of relief

Finally, I am back.” 

Aelford was my hometown

I used to dream of studying at a better school

I worked so hard that I finally got admitted to the best medical school in the country

Afterward, I overcame all the difficulties and graduated as a postgraduate student

After I became a doctor, I overcame all obstacles and challenges during work, enabling me to achieve current results

It was time to use my medical skills and experiences where it was needed

Vicente and I listened to a pop singer’s songs all the way

Neither of us said another word

It lasted until Vicente received a call from the hospital

Dr. Barron, there is a patient who needs surgery immediately.” 

Vicente did not hesitate. Okay. I will be there in ten minutes.Chapter

He pulled over and turned his head to look at me

He said, Jaliyah, I have to go to the hospital for emergency surgery. Do you mind taking a taxi home by yourself?” 

Watching his sincere expression, I couldn’t help but burst into laughter again

I’ll go with you. I can get familiar with the hospital by the way.” 

Vicente did not refuse

Vicente and I performed this surgery together

It was not completed until the early morning of the next day

Vicente handed me a cup of coffee

Jaliyah, thank you. I’m sorry to make you work overtime upon your arrival.” 

I shook my head

Vicente was the only experienced cardiac surgeon in Aelford

I could tell from his exhausted face how busy his daily work was

Compared to his hardships, mine was nothing

Just as Vicente was about to speak, I received Edwin’s call

Jaliyah, is it fun to make a scene? How can you say break up with me casually? I admit that I’ve been neglecting you lately. Tell me what you want, and I will buy it for you tomorrow.” 

I didn’t want Edwin’s gift because that was the way every time he tried to coax me

He never asked for my opinion

Sometimes it was an illfitting dress

Sometimes it was a necklace that I didn’t like

Or something else… 

Whether I liked them or not, the next morning those things would be placed in the living room

This was the first time he asked me what I wanted

I was supposed to be happy

But now I couldn’t be happy, no matter what

My attitude was extremely cold. I want you not to disturb me.” 

Chapter

2/5 

Without waiting for Edwin’s response, I hung up the phone and blocked him

I took a taxi and went home

Afraid of waking up my parents, I tiptoed up the stairs, but still bumped my foot

Dad immediately got up to check when he heard the sound

Jaliyah, you are back. Are you hungry? Hold on, I’ll heap up the dishes for you.” 

I hugged Dad and couldn’t help but cry when I saw the hearty meals on the table

Dad, I’m home. Mr. Wagner approved my application for five years. From now on, I can be by your side every day.” 

Dad gently patted me on the shoulder and laughed, Jaliyah, as doctors, our patients are the most important. Besides, your mom and I are swamped with work every day. We don’t need your 

company.” 

Dad had never seen me cry like this before. He appeared at a loss and quickly grabbed a tissue to 

wipe away my tears

Jaliyah, don’t cry. I’ll cook your favorite Macaroni for you right now.” 

I nodded while wiping my tears

After the meal, I took a shower and went to bed

I was awakened by the constant message tones early the next morning

Jaliyah, were you forced away by Tiara?” 

Today, the gossip about the quarrel between Edwin and Tiara spread out in the hospital.” 

I also heard it. The entire department heard the shout from Dr. Leach, who has always been 

gentle.” 

There was an uproar in the working chat group

I tightly covered myself with the blanket and set the chat group message reminder to the No disturbingmodel

Just as I was about to fall asleep again, Tiara called

Tiara didn’t give me a chance to speak but immediately started mocking me

Jaliyah, did you think that by disappearing, Edwin would change his mind and love you

Edwin is mine, and you better never come back.” 

Chapter

3/5 

I was not in the mood to argue with her, so I lazily said, Alright, princess.” 

Tiara’s venting did not work on me

She became furious

She shouted hysterically over the phone, Jaliyah, Edwin is about to agree to marry me. Be aware 

that you are the one who is not loved.” 

I had gotten used to Tiara’s showing off

As long as Edwin treated her even just a little bit better than me, she would seize the opportunity to 

show it off to me

Now I didn’t want to subordinate to Edwin any longer

I cleared my throat and smiled, Well, Tiara, as long as you’re happy. By the way, never shout at me like a barking dog in the future.” 

Sleeping for a whole day was what I had longed for since I started studying medicine

I didn’t want to be disturbed by anything

After blocking Tiara on my phone, I turned it off and fell asleep

I was awakened by the aroma of my parentscooking late in the afternoon

I got up and had a plentiful meal, thinking about going out for a walk

As I opened the door, I saw Edwin standing at the doorway

He was smiling at me

But I didn’t greet him with a smile

Edwin, what are you doing here?” 

Edwin didn’t get angry

He asked me in a low voice, Jaliyah, how about we go take wedding photos? Besides, I’d like to meet with your parents to discuss our wedding arrangement.” 

My eyes were filled with astonishment at his words

Edwin, I hate a twotimer like you. Besides, we have broken up.” 

When Edwin heard these words, a cold light shrouded his eyes

Jaliyah, just a headsup. You don’t have the option of breaking up.”
