“Do you find it fun to toy with me, Arius? Is it because I like you that you think you can treat me
however you please?”
When Georgina uttered those words, anguish hit her hard.
What have I ever done besides having feelings for him? Even if I like him a lot, I still have my dignity!
What gives him the right to think I’ll agree to date him with just a lift of a finger?
The sight of her devastated had Arius at a loss for a moment.
“That’s not what I meant, Georgina. I really want to try dating you. Who knows, we can be happy?
Ultimately, tears escaped her eyes.
Who knows? He’s giving me a spark of hope when I’d just decided to give up, thinking I’ll be moved by
it, huh?
The instant he saw that she was crying, his panic mounted. In all honesty, he had no idea how to
interact with women.
However, distress inundated him for real to see her shedding tears.
“I’m sorry, Georgina. Forget it if you’re unwilling to give me a chance. Please don’t cry!”
I’ve never intended to hurt her. Truly, never once had it crossed my
Unfortunately, Georgina wept even harder upon hearing that
“It’s precisely because you don’t like me that you don’t even care!” she roared. On the heels of that.
mortification deluged her.
Without warning. Arius hugged her.
“I’m serious, Georgina. I actually don’t have any strong points. Although I’ve attained some
accomplishments in the medical field. I’m afraid I’m not the type of man you want in life.”
With his arms wrapped around her. Georgina’s heart raced wildly. She felt as though it was going to
pound out of her chest.
“Arius…” She honestly did not quite know how else she should explain things to him.
I like him purely because of the person he is. Never had I considered other reasons.
“I’m sorry. I never meant to hurt you. But when I learned that you were heading back to your hometown
to go on blind dates, I felt absolutely wretched. That’s the only reason I cast caution to the wind and
went to look for you.
Arius finally bared his heart.
“Really? You were wretched when I left?”
Perhaps he merely doesn’t know how to love. And maybe there’s still a speck of hope for me.
“Mm, I was really wretched when I learned that you were leaving”
At long last, a smile bloomed on Georgina’s face.
“Okay, we’ll try dating, then. You don’t need to feel pressurized. I won’t blame you if things don’t work
out at the end of the day.”
After all, not all relationships are destined to end in marriage, nor do all lovers get together. Not to
mention, our relationship is starting from my unrequited love in the first place.
Surprisingly, Arius furrowed his brows.
“You’re too pessimistic, Georgina. I like you. As such, I’ll try my best to make this relationship work. I
won’t allow anyone to hurt you.”
He embraced the woman in front of him tightly.
“But I’ve already promised Sophie, and I do want to try being the person in charge of this place.”
As Georgina had agreed to it, she felt that she still wanted to give it a try.
“All right. As long as you’re happy, I have no objections.”
Argh! Sophie is too devious! If Georgina were to be the person in charge, how could I be able to sit
back and do nothing?
Arius felt as though he had been set up.
Alas, there was nothing he could do about it.
I can neither beat her in a physical match nor win an argument against her. In the end, I’ll have no
choice but to slog silently.
“What’s with this expression of yours? Are you already regretting it now?” The moment Georgina
glimpsed the look on his face, her heart sank.
To her surprise, he kissed her on the mouth.
While it was nothing more than a brief peck, the woman flushed bright red and pushed him lightly.
“What are you doing? We’re at the medical association. What if someone were to see that?”
“Why? Am I such a disgrace? So be it if someone were to see that. What’s the big deal about it?” Arius
found nothing wrong about dating at his age.
Georgina never expected the man to behave thus once he had decided to date her.
She had assumed they would be dating in secret.
They both worked at the medical association, after all. It would be awkward for everyone if things did
not work out between the two in the end.
“Remember this, Georgina Bates–you’re mine now, so don’t you go on those ridiculous blind dates
anymore.
I won’t be happy about it.
“Okay, got it.” Georgina had not wanted to go for those blind dates either. Her parents had arranged
them, as they worried about her being alone.
After Arius had placated Georgina, he went in search of Barney.
Despite the man’s arrival, Barney did not even spare him a glance.
“Georgina is actually unsuited to be the person in charge. Dr. Smith,” Arius stated, cutting straight to
the chase.
Still. Barney went about his work.
“That’s not something for you to decide. Since she has agreed to it herself, we’ll see how it goes first.”
“I’ve gotten together with her. Dr. Smith.”
“So?”
“I hope she’ll have more time for herself.”
That’s your business. It has nothing to do with me.”
“I’ve obeyed you to the letter all these years. Dr. Smith. Yet, you won’t even agree though I’m only
asking you for a meager favor now?”
“How about you take the job instead, then? If she’s unsuited, you certainly fit the bill!” grumbled Barney.
Sophie might not have the time as she has many things on her plate, but the same can’t be said of him.
Just then. Sophie knocked on the door and stepped in. When she saw Arius there, her lips curved into
a devilish smile.
The sight of her grinning had fury blaze to life within Arius.
“Aren’t I good to you. Sophie Tanner? Why must you sabotage me like this?” She doesn’t want the job,
so she foisted it on Georgina!
At that. Sophie’s smile grew even wider.
“I know you’re good to me, but so what? It was Georgina’s decision to be the person in charge of the
medical association. I didn’t coerce her into it.” How could he blame this on me?
“I’m sure you did it on purpose, picking on her because she’s innocent and naïve!”
“She has her own mind. Besides, if you don’t want her to be the person in charge, you can take the job.
instead! Dr. Smith and I have no objections at all.”
That had Arius at a loss for words.
“The two of you are obviously in cahoots! No one is on my side.” Despondency swamped him.
“Don’t worry. There’ll be someone on your side henceforth.” Georgina will definitely take his side,
considering how much she likes him.
“Hmph!”
Arius was utterly frustrated.
“Being the person in charge isn’t that bad, Arius. We’ll help if she were to run into some problem”
We’re not going to dump all the problems onto Georgina. We’re only going to have her handle some of
the daily matters. As for the other complicated stuff, we’re not going to sit back and do nothing.
“Exactly! Are we such people? Of course, if she isn’t willing to take the job in the end, we aren’t going
to force her.” Barney affirmed.
We’re not such unreasonable people!
Arius let out a heavy sigh. Ugh! I’m truly powerless before Sophie!
“Fine. But let me put this out there first–you’ll have to handle it yourselves if it involves someone
problematic!”
