The secretary who became a billionaire's wife
Chapter 12

Phoebe's POV

"Help me out? What is he talking about? It better not be what I'm thinking," I say to myself.

"You have a strong immune system, unlike other people who suffer from this illness, they usually have severe symptoms like chest pain, rapid breathing which slightly you have, frequent coughing and you barely coughed since you came in here, but that's not enough reason to relax because congestive heart failure can be life-threatening atimes, and just maybe yours is the type that eats someone from the inside," The doctor explained.

Hearing what he said makes sense, but there's nowhere in the world that I can get such an amount of money for treatment.

"What do you suggest I do, Doctor?" I ask open-mindedly.

"I could help you get the surgery, but if you will be willing to be my girlfriend again," he asked with pleading eyes, his wife shouldn't miss this scene, I don't wish to embarrass him, but I would like his bully wife to come see how her husband is begging me to be his.

He's a nice guy, but I regret ever hanging out with him, we had sex a couple of times but I'm done with him and that's final, I can't accept his offer, I'm not a homewrecker even with the fact that I'll love to make his wife suffer, I'll just leave that stone unturned.

"You know that can't happen, you're married for God's sake?" I state he realizes how pissed off I am and he tries to calm me down but he is afraid of my reaction.

"I know," he stutters, "I can still help you out with the surgery if you don't mind," he says, reaching out for my hand. I'm tempted to smack his hand off but the only thing he did that offended me was getting married to Miriam.

"I don't need your help, I'll be just fine," I angrily get up from the bed, he heads back to his seat to write some drug prescriptions for me, and quickly hands them to me, "Here," he says giving me the note, I pick my bag heading towards the door.

I open the door and give him one last look, "I won't die anytime soon, God will keep and protect me like he always had, don't worry about me," I say with the last look at him as I head for the hospital pharmacy.

It is so sickling of people to think of me as a slut just because my mother was one, I'm not going to prove anything to anyone, I am a different person my background doesn't matter.

My parents left bad legacies behind that will be hard to erase from people's minds but I don't care.

Brian knew about my family situation, and I know he loves me genuinely but how he got together with Miriam overnight marvels me to this day.

I reached the hospital pharmacy, people were waiting in line and I joined the line. Soon it was my turn, I found myself standing before the pharmacist, "Good morning," I struggled to say because my heart was heavy. "Good morning," the pharmacist said smiling, "What can I help you with?" She asks me.

I quickly forwarded the Doctor's note in my hand, he had already sent the mail order to them.

"What's your name?" The lady says, tilting her head quickly to look at me.

"Phoebe Harry," I say, my voice a bit unstable, the fear of what the Doctor said lingering in my mind, Got me thinking about my life all over.

The pharmacist quickly looks back at her computer and types in a few things, and she picks a few drugs, puts them together, and places them in front of me.

"It costs $530," the pharmacist says. I put my hand into my bag, bring out a few Dollars and give it to her, "Here" I say.

She takes the money and hands me the drugs.

I turned and headed out of the hospital, the weather started getting cloudy, As I was strolling on the walkway I noticed a luxury car halt beside me.

I try to take a better look at the driver and I realize it was Brian, was he stalking me?

"Get in," he says. I wanted to protest but the rain started falling heavier, so I quickly got into the car.

He whines the window up and turns the steering swiftly onto the road, he passes me his handkerchief for me to clean the raindrops on my body.

I clean it and give it back, the drive is tense and silent, pregnant with many unspoken words and thoughts, Brian doesn't know I know his wife in person and Miriam doesn't know I've fucked her husband before. He clears his throat, "Where are you heading?" he asks.

"The supermarket after the bus stop," I say, not looking at him.

He gently nods and drives towards my destination. He is doing everything to win my heart but it doesn't matter, does it?

Soon we get to my destination but it is still raining, and I have to get out of that car because I'm not ready for any conversation he would want to use this avenue for, I unlock the car and I'm about to step outside when he suddenly touches

me.

I look at his hand with contempt in my expression, he notices it and quickly takes off his hand, "I wanted to give you this, you might need it," he hands me an umbrella he pulls out from his back seat. "Thank you," I mutter, smiling a bit, gratitude evident in my expression.

I open the umbrella and step into the rain. I get to the front of the mall and drop down the umbrella just to replace the last person I was expecting to see there standing and watching the car that just dropped me, No one else but Miriam.
