Mr. Billionaire's hired Doctor

Chapter Four - Yes!

I finished explaining how the heart works. And about a few heart diseases. He is genuinely interested in all this.

"What is the most interesting thing you came across?" I heard he asked me. I looked at his direction and he was looking straight in my eyes. That was kinda intimidating.

"Situs Inversus Totalis" I said without breaking the eye contact. He just stared at me for a few seconds without saying anything. I knew he was in a deep thought.

"You are hired" he said. "Do you have any questions you would like to ask me?"

"Yes!" I exclaimed. "I have many actually" he chuckled. That's the first laugh I heard from him despite the hours we have spent together. It cant  be considered a laugh.

"I would be disappointed if you don't have any. Please ask." He said with a smile. He smiled often but it never reached his eyes. His eyes are blue. Green. Ocean. An ocean I would not mind drowning in. He has bags under the eye. His beautiful eyes just hid them too well. Is he okay? Maybe I can help him.

"uhmm"I cleared my throat with intentions of clearing my mind from his eyes. Dammit was I fantasizing about someone when that someone was right infront of me?

"I.. I" I tried to start a sentence. I had a superfluous mouth seconds ago but now I am unable to come up with just one sentence. Suddenly he got out of his chair along with the glass of water in front of me. Is he gonna pour it all over me since cat got my tongue.

"Drink some water. You must be tired from explaining hearts to me." He smiled. Yet again the only thing I noticed was his smile had no happiness. I quietly drank a sip of water. He was still standing close to me slightly leaning on the table with his hands supporting a little bit of his weight. I just got the chance to actually look at him. My cake names never bring justice to this man's beauty.

" I never heard of people talking about a new hospital being build. Where is the actual hospital Mr Henderson. And also what is my post. " He opened his mouth to say something but I guess table now has changed. Cat got his tongue.

"You are gonna work here. For me." He said with an authority tone. Dammit he is bossy.

"What do you mean? Here? Like in this mansion?" I was confused. What is this man up to?

"Yes." Just yes? Thats it? No explanation? Damn he is arrogant.

"I am a doctor. A surgeon! I am suppose to work in a hospital. If there is no hospital I am sorry but I will leave now!" I was about to stand from my seat when he started talking.

"I never mentioned that there won't be a hospital Doctor. Please listen to my offer. Trust me you wont be able to leave this opportunity." Is he begging or commanding me to listen. Never knew please was a word used in such context.

"I am all ears Mr Henderson."

" I want you to work here until a time period which I will reveal to you later. In that mean time I will build a hospital and you will be the head of your department. And and I will make you one of the board members with shares of the hospital. Does this sound like something you are interested in?"

" Why do you need a surgeon at home?"

" I can't tell until you sign a contract. I am a private man doctor. I don't want people to know. If you are working here I want you to tell people that we are planning to build a hospital because that won't be a lie. We will be building a hospital together." But I want to operate. I love the thrill in the operation theatre.

" So I guess you will let this opportunity pass you by?" He asked me astonishment clearly written all over his face. He is an open book.

" Why do you think that?" Am I easy to read too?

" You said about the thrill in the OT just now."

"Oh! You weren't suppose to hear that." He raised his eye brows. " I mean I thought I said it in my head but I don't know why people are hearing my thoughts today. Why my thoughts are on the tip of my tongue." He chuckled. Said nothing and went back to his chair. He didn't say a word. So I broke the silence.

" I am a surgeon you can't keep me in a house and not let me cut." He know you are a surgeon lexie. Stop mentioning it so much.

" I don't think you will be cutting into any heart anytime soon doctor. You are jobless anyways. I gave you once in a lifetime offer. Please take your time and think about it and email me your answer. Micheal, my driver will leave you at your place Dr Anderson. It was nice meeting you." I shook the hand he offered. I felt like a smurf as his hands appear very large compared to my small ones. I was about to leave. But I found my self saying something I had no intention to say.

" Yes! I will take the opportunity." What in the world is wrong with me. Was it the curiosity of knowing his secret  or was it the need to be by his side. I had no idea.
