His Ex-Luna Is A Famous Doctor by Caroline Above Story Novel

Chapter 0020 Arias POV After Sheilas outburst , her eyes widened as if she was surprised and appalled by her own lack of decorum .

Clearing her throat , she tried to relax her body somewhat , leaning heavily on one leg The attempt at calmness , however , was not terribly successful .

She looked uncomfortable , even as she tried to offer a friendly smile .

Dr.

A , Sheila said , laughing slightly .

No wonder you disappeared for three years .

Perhaps you seduced an alpha from a different pack and were too embarrassed to face the public .

But you wouldnt do that , would you ? The more she talked , the more I realized entertaining this outburst of hers was a massive waste of time .

Looking away from Sheila , I turned my attention to Piper .

Return to work , Piper , I said , gesturing to the phone that was ringing on the reception desk .

Nodding , Piper sat down and answered the phone .

Cathy gave me a look , and then laughed the entire way out the door .

Set on ignoring Sheila , I turned around to continue my research through the textbooks at the back of the office .

Somehow , Sheila interpreted my turning my back to her as an invitation to approach me .

She veered around reception and came into the back of the office where I was standing near the bookshelves .

Has this happened before , Dr.

A ? Is secrets from your previous lovers his why you wear the mask , to conceal your true identity and help keep Sheila was full of accusations today .

Focusing on the textbook I was holding , I flipped a page .

Dont ignore me , Sheila snapped , anger once more returning to her tone .

This hair trigger of hers proved that her anger had never dimmed since her entering this office , despite what she pretended .

She had never calmed downl I flipped another page .

You are too cruel , she said , her voice shaking .

She wiped at her eyes like she was crying , but I didnt really look to be sure .

She cried at the drop of a hat , about everything whenever she didnt get her way .

In the textbook , I found the passage I was looking for and read it closely .

This is why its taking you so long to cure me , isnt it ? You fell in love with Lucian and now you are delaying everything , hoping he will choose you .

You are delaying my healing on purposel Shellas voice raised , shouting now .

Unfortunately , some ne of the older Healers were at that moment passing beyond my office door .

Hearing Shellas accusations , they started to head inside .

Why wont you heal me , Dr.

A ?! Sheila screeched .

Whats this ? asked one of the Healers .

I recognized him from the break room earlier .

Dr.

A Is refusing to treat her patients ? She has fallen in love with Lucian , and using that against tel Shella said , turning to them for sympathy .

This was getting out of hand .

Closing my book , I tried to assure them , None of this is true .

425 BONUS .

Shes been selfish from the start , said the second older Healer .

That medicine that extends the lifespan of werewolves .

She refuses to share the formula Dont you know , Dr.

A , that more advances can be made to that She doesnt care , said the first Healer .

She only cares about money .

Thats why shes after Lucian , Sheila added .

For his money .

Im sure of it .

Now , wait a minute , said I If you disagree .

Dr.

A.

then you will hand over the formula to the medicine that extends lifespan , said the older Healer .

Else you prove yourself a liar and a gold digger .

I hadnt given over the formula specifically to keep it safe from Healers like them , who wanted the formula only they could twist it around and make themselves more money .

By holding onto it , I could ensure that everyone had equal access to the medicine , and not just the wealthiest werewolves of the pack .

Yet truth and reason werent going to matter to this crew , even if I did point it out .

Instead , I turned to look at Piper , who , after just hanging up the phone , was looking wide eyed and a touch frightened , as if she was caught in the middle of all this .

Piper , will you find me Sheilas folder ? The one Ive been working on .

At once , Piper said , bounding out of her seat .

Calmly , I turned to Sheila Do you really want to know why I havent cured you in so long ? The older Healers looked at Sheila , who seemed stunned a moment .

Then , stubbornly , she burst out , Of course I do you devious woman .

Piper brought the folder to me .

Holding it , I flipped it open and started to read .

The loss of Sheilas fertility stems from her mating with multiple non mated males while herself being marked .

This has caused a disorder of her pheromones … Sheila walked right up to me and lifted her arm , ready to slap me across the face .

I closed my eyes , preparing , but the slap never landed .

Opening my eyes again , I could see why .

Lucian now stood behind Sheila , his hand firmly grasping Sheilas wrist .

Do not disrespect Dr.

A , Lucian said coldly .

Sheilas face crumpled up in a flash .

Real , ugly tears fell from her eyes this time .

I knew you cared about her ! she cried .

Dont even bother coming home tonight , as youve completely forgotten me ! Sheila , Lucian said , his voice flat and steady .

Calm yourself , Dont talk to me like this- like Im nothing .

Who are you even going to take to tomorrows family gathering ? I should be your partner , or are you going to take this little bitch in a mask instead ? Sheila glowered at me .

Tears streaked down her face , smudging her eye makeup .

In a way , I almost felt bad for her .

Her words were ridiculous and laughable .

She thought , in my absence as Aria , that she could just swoop in and take over my life .

1 , too , thought Lucian had feelings for her .

Maybe he did , but it wasnt enough to have him drop everything to cater his whole life to her .

At least in this moment , Sheila was clearly the third party here .

Sheila , by even bringing up the upcoming event , was making a gamble .

She wanted something from Lucian .

+25 BONUS Chapter 0020 Perhaps his attention, perhaps his public declaration of them as a couple .

She had to have known that Lucian was denying the divorce That must have infuriated her .

Me as Aria was still a part of Lucians life , and now Dr.

A was as well .

Maybe Sheila felt like she was losing any hold she had on Lucian .

Good .

She had dedicated far too much of her time plotting my undoing .

It pleased me to no end to watch it backfire in her face , even if it was a rather pathetic sight .

Sheila batted her long eyelashes at Lucian , giving him her best doe eyed pouty lipped look .

But he didnt even see it , because he wasnt looking at her at all .

Lucian ? she said , perhaps hoping that saying his name would turn his attention to her .

It didnt .

Instead , he said , I will only take the most suitable and most deserving person to the event .

He was looking straight at me .
