“Did you bump into her somewhere?" Wesley was showing no intentions of dropping the topic.
"Yes, I was with her at the hospital just a while ago," Niles told him right away.
“Did Carlos come into contact with her? Where is he right now?"
“He is right here with me in my car."
“Let's just discuss this when you get to the club, okay?" Wesley told him.
The other two felt how serious he was about this.
At Orchid Private Club
The moment Carlos and Niles finally reached the club, Damon and Wesley had already been waiting for about an hour. Damon had never been the patient type.
"You finally showed up. What took you so Long? I thought the two of you eloped or something,” he grumbled.
Awkwardly trying to explain the situation, Niles replied, "Something came up at the hospital. I had no choice but to work a bit of overtime.
Carlos dropped by the hospital."
Pouring them a glass of wine each, Damon fixated his gaze at Niles and asked him, "Do you enjoy being a doctor?"
Shaking his head, Niles protested, “Not a single bit. Patients would always be coming in left and right. To make matters worse, more and more medical records are piling up on top of all the operations."
Looking at Niles unsympathetically, Wesley remarked, “You're the one who chose that." Wesley already lost count of how many times he had talked to Niles about this, hoping that his younger brother would enlist in the army alongside him. But much to his dismay, Niles had always dreamt of being a doctor
Brushing his hair, Niles retorted, “It might be tiresome, but I still think it's much better than being in the army. The rigorous training the soldiers have to go through just isn't for me." He had always wondered how the soldiers made it through such harsh conditions.
‘Wesley is such a brutal and relentless leader. Don't they ever get worried that they might meet their end through his hands one day?
Resting his hand on Niles‘ shoulder and patting him, Damon commented,
“It takes an uncompromising commander to build up a strong army. You should realize that it's your brother's toughness that's helping those people to turn into remarkable soldiers. All of them are considered elites. When they go on a mission, every single one of those men would be capable of fighting several enemies.”
“And I've always tried my best to become a good doctor. Eventually,
I'll become the hospital's attending physician, and then finally, the director. That day will come, I'm sure of that. And I'll groom the next ones into becoming a remarkable team of doctors as well," Niles proudly said. He truly had faith that he would become a successful doctor in time.
Damon simply bobbed his head along to all of that.
"That's right. Niles is certainly a good doctor."
“Of course. Definitely," Niles replied quite proudly, as he raised his glass to have a toast with Damon.
At that moment, Niles appeared as though something came to his mind.
“What has Curtis been doing these days? And what about Megan? Has she been busy with school activities? It's been so long since the last time
