C2 Chapter 02

They all gasped and looked at each other.

"Well, you all know that Alfred Kim passed away last year after battling with cancer. Dan was supposed to come over and take over immediately but he decided to stay a year again and study more. So tomorrow he will be back to take over" He said and they all nodded wondering how it was going to be the next day.

They all went back to their duty posts and soon they were on their way.

As Melanie headed out, her phone immediately rang. It was her friend Chelsea. She smiled immediately and picked it up.

"Girlfriend!!!!! Guess what I'm back in Seoul now!" She yelled and Melanie flinched and moved the phone backwards from her ear.

"You are back!" Melanie said and and she screamed again.

"Come home already. There is already a feast prepared for you!" She said.

"Ok Chels! I'm on my way home!" She said and Chelsea Chelsea giggled and ended the call.

Melanie kept smiling as she walked on. Well, Chelsea was her one and only friend in the world. She was from a wealthy family but she did not let it get into her head. Her parents were also good people and were always busy so they had no time for her. They met in college and since then they become close.

As she kept on thinking, someone held her hand and dragged her against her wish.

"Let me go!" She yelled and the person pinned her to the car.

She looked up and saw the person.

"Doc Jacob!" She said surprised and he smirked.

She fred her hand from him forcefully and then slapped him hard across the face.

"Are you stupid or don't you just understand?!" She yelled and he smiled and touched his cheek.

"I love it that you're feisty. It makes me want you the more!" He said and smiled.

Melanie scoffed and then tried to walk away but he held her wrist again and she sighed again, her back turned against him.

"I don't know what you are doing to me. But I will make sure that i get you" He said and She scoffed and then turned back before she fred her hands from his.

"In your dreams...." She says she walked out.

"Welcome Mel!" Chelsea screamed and hugged Melanie so tightly and she chuckled and hugged her back.

"I missed you so much Babe" Melanie said and chuckled and they disengaged from the hug.

"So what did you bring from Incheon?!" She asked and they both smiled.

"First I'm hungry, so what did you prepare?" Mel asked.

"Korean Noodles!" She squealed loudly and Mel chuckled.

She suddenly remembered the dream she had that morning and then her smile faded slowly and immediately Chelsea noticed her countenance.

"Hey, Mel, Are you okay?!" She asked.

"Huh?"

"Yes of course, I'm okay!" She quickly said but Chelsea did not believe her.

"Come on, tell me. I'm your best friend right?!" She asked and Melanie nodded.

"Hm, Chels! You see that dream I always had. I had it this morning" She said.

"What? But you don't have those dreams again. It's been long. But don't worry. It's just a dream" She said and pinched her nose and they both chuckled.

The next day.

"Oh no! Pass me the hair brush!" Melanie yelled at Chelsea who was laughing.

"Come on Chels! I'm late" She said and Chelsea stuck out her tongue at her.

"I never told you to wake up late!" She yelled and Melanie quickly brushed her hair and then picked her bag.

"Bye Chels!" She yelled and ran out.

She quickly packed her car and then she checked her wristwatch.

"8 more minutes to go" She said as she glanced at her wristwatch. She ran off hurriedly, her heels clucking.

She sighed and stopped panting and then resumed running.

Dan sighed and closed the car's door, he held his phone and placed it on his ear. He spoke in fluent English language .

"Yeah. Just perform the surgery on him. He will be fine and then give him antibiotics. Ok bye" He said and hung up.

He brought his phone down from his ear and started operating on it still walking.

He began to hear whispers.

"Oh my! He's cute"

"Who's he? I don't think I have seen him ever before"

"He smells like wealth. Look at his shoes"

"Oh Gosh! His long baby eyelashes. He's really handsome"

Melanie ran more faster without even looking up. All she just wants was to get in before 8am and boom. They bumped into each other and the phone fell from Dan's hands.

"Oh my Gosh! I'm sorry" She said and immediately picked up the phone.

"Here" She said stretching his phone to him.

She looked up and then saw him and she froze for a second.

"The guy standing before was just.... He was just handsome" She thought.

"As well as I thought. You must have been blind for a sec" He said rudely jolting her out of her thoughts.

"What?" Melanie was taken aback.

"Excuse me! I apologized already so you better watch what you say and also you must have been the one blind because you bumped to me first!" She said softly yet coldly and Dan furrowed his brows and everyone gasped.

Well Melanie was not the type to keep quiet when insulted.

"What the?

"Hey Dan, you are here!" A voice exclaimed and Melanie turned to see Mr Thalcobs and Mr Anderson walking towards them.

Mr Anderson looked at Dan and then at Melanie.

"Good morning Sir!" She said and bowed her head.

"Do you know him Melanie?" Doc Anderson asked and she shook her head.

"No sir" She replied.

"Dan, this is one of the best upcoming neurosurgeon in this hospital and Melanie, this is Dan Kim or Kim Dan rather, I told you about him yesterday . He's Alfred Kim's son" He said and everyone gasped and murmured and Dan had a smirk on his face.

"She just shouted at the owner's son"

"I hope you two get along well and work together" Mr Thalcobs said while the both of them stared at each other until Dan broke off the silence.

"I guess you have to say an apology?" He said not to anyone in particular.

"I'm sorry sir but I can't apologise" She stated firmly then she walked away and there was a glint in Dan's eyes.

"What the hell? Who the hell does she think is?" He asked himself
