My Obsessive Doctor

“I know! That’s why Michelle always gets special treatment from you, right?” Doctor Vega confirmed again.

***

Indeed, Doctor Bernardo always treats Michelle with special care. He often gives luxury and branded items to Michelle, such as watches, bags, perfumes, etc. He also often gives gold, diamonds, and gems, either in the form of jewelry or not, to Michelle, which she often shows off on her social media.

“I just have a new diamond necklace, guys!” Michelle posted a photo of a diamond necklace given to her by Doctor Bernardo on social media.

“Wow! It’s so beautiful!”

“Yes. So beautiful.”

“That’s limited edition!”

In addition, Michelle is always defended by Doctor Bernardo when she fights or makes trouble with anyone. For example, when Michelle didn’t do her task

At that time, Alberto reprimanded her. “Michelle, how can you have not done the report? They have asked us for this task!”

“Well, Alberto, I’m busy.” Michelle complained.

“Please understand me, and please do it by yourself!” Michelle pleaded.

“Me?! How can you ask me to do the task now? That’s your job!” said Alberto angrily.

At that moment, Doctor Bernardo came and immediately embraced Michelle warmly. He immediately reprimanded Alberto.

“Yes, Alberto. Just do it if you can! Don’t bother and make a problem like a kid!” Doctor Bernardo admonished

“You’re an adult, right?” Doctor Bernardo asked

“Poor Michelle! She’s already overworked.” Doctor Bernardo asked Alberto to feel sorry for Michelle.

“Michelle, come to my room, please!” asked Doctor Bernardo.

“Okay, Doc.” Michelle went to follow Doctor Bernardo but did not do the assignment.

Finally, it was Alberto again who was told to do Michelle’s assignment. Although in his heart he felt very upset and didn’t accept it, he had to do it. He didn’t have other choices.

In addition, the big problems that Michelle faced seemed small. Even the small problems that Michelle faces are often dismissed as nonexistent.

For example, when Michelle accidentally broke a large number of albumin vials, she immediately said “Oh, I’m sorry, it’s an accident. I didn’t mean that.”

“It’s okay, Michelle. It’s normal.”

“You’re tired, right?” asked Doctor Bernardo in a spoiling way.

“Yes. I’m so tired,” Michelle grumbled, her voice spoiled.

“Just come to my room and take a rest with me there!” Doctor Bernardo spoke in a spoiled tone.

“Okay, Doc.”

All the special treatment that Doctor Bernardo gave Michelle made Alberto jealous.

Alberto immediately muttered to himself. “Oh. No wonder Doctor Bernardo’s treatment of Michelle is so special! Apparently, Michelle is Doctor Bernardo’s mistress.”

“But, did I ever have a problem with it? No, right?” asked Doctor Vega.

“Did I ever tell Doctor Luna (your wife, who is the co-owner of this hospital)? No!” asked Doctor Vega again.

“So, why are you making such a big deal out of this?” Doctor Vega asked Doctor Bernardo why he was making such a fuss about Doctor Vega and Alberto’s relationship.

“Both of us are single! We don’t have a partner. Unlike you, who are married and have a wife but still cheat on Michelle and other girls.” Doctor Vega taunted.

“So why can’t I do that, and why is it only you who can do that? After all, I only choose Alberto as my assistant, and I only ask him for help like other doctors always ask him for it. So, why are the other doctors permitted but I am not?” Doctor Vega was very interested in the reason for all of this.

“I don’t interfere with his work as an intern in the pharmacy department. He only helps me when he can.”

“If he is busy with his duties, I don’t force him to help me as my assistant either. After all, having an assistant is a right. Not an obligation!”

Everything was explained by Doctor Vega.

“Because you own this hospital, do you think that you can do whatever you want? Is that so?” asked Doctor Vega in confusion.

“You think you’re the only one who can do whatever you want?” Doctor Bernardo was still frozen in his position.

“No! I can do whatever I want too!” shouted Doctor Vega.

“Can?! What can you do?” Doctor Bernardo was irritated.

“Show me! You don’t even have a hospital like me!” mocked Doctor Bernardo.

Doctor Bernardo wanted to know what Doctor Vega could do. For him, Doctor Vega can’t do anything and is still dependent on the hospital. So, he feels that he has more power over Doctor Vega.

“I can quit Regency Hospital. I will bring the application letter tomorrow. I’ll let you find another doctor to replace me,” threatened Doctor Vega, which immediately made Doctor Bernardo freeze.

In his head, he imagined that if there was no Doctor Vega to serve patients with difficult cases, of course everything would be complicated. He immediately apologized. “Doctor Vega, please forgive me!”

“Don’t do that! If there’s no one like you, who will treat my patients with difficult cases?” He pleaded.

“I don’t care,” Doctor Vega said curtly, because she really didn’t care about the fate of Rege Hospital anymore. She was so angry at that time.

“Alberto!” called Doctor Vega, which made Alberto turn his head towards her.

“Let’s get out of this hospital too!” Come with me as my assistant, and I will pay you rather than keep you in this hospital. In here, you’re not valued and only considered as a maid with the lowest caste,” said Doctor Vega, who made Alberto look at her in confusion because he felt confused and shocked.

He had no idea Doctor Vega would ask him to work as her assistant at another hospital. He also never imagined that would happen in his life because he thought he couldn’t be a doctor’s assistant.

He asked in his heart. “Do I deserve to be her assistant? Isn’t there someone else who deserves to be her assistant more than me?”

“Come on, Alberto! Let’s get out of this hospital! Let’s work as interns at another hospital that can respect you as a health worker and as a human being!” Doctor Vega urged once more.

“Not like this place, where you’re treated like an animal. They called you rude names and animal nicknames, and they treated you like what they wanted,” persuaded Doctor Vega.

“Alberto, do you want to go with Doctor Vega or stay in this hospital?” asked Doctor Bernardo weakly, as he was sure Alberto would want to go with Doctor Vega.

For him, there’s no way Alberto will want to stay at Rege Hospital, because he and most doctors have always treated Alberto badly, as Doctor Vega has said.

“I’ll follow Doctor Vega.” Alberto accepted Doctor Vega’s invitation. Actually, he felt that he couldn’t stay at Rege Hospital any longer, but he always tried to stay and make himself strong because he had to do that for his work experience.

“Look! Alberto and I want to move to another hospital. Don’t you feel like losing us?” asked Doctor Vega.

“I’m sorry, Alberto and Doctor Vega! I had no intention of doing that at all. I just wanted to reprimand you because I felt it was unethical.” Doctor Bernardo apologized, as he wanted to stop Alberto and Doctor Vega from leaving the hospital.

“I’m just afraid of the image of this hospital. What if your actions are seen by other people?” Doctor Bernardo expressed his apprehension.

“Why? Isn’t it normal nowadays? It’s not like it used to be when it was considered abnormal.” Doctor Vega grumbled.

“Okay. Then forgive me for not knowing, Alberto and Doctor Vega!” Doctor Bernardo apologized once more.

“I won’t make a fuss about it again, and I’ll let you ask Alberto to be your assistant, Doctor Vega.” Doctor Bernardo decided.

Doctor Vega exhaled. “That’s all right.”

“Then, I guess we have nothing more to discuss! Alberto and I would like to leave here. There are many things we need to do again.” Doctor Vega asked Doctor Bernardo for permission.

“Okay.”

“Come on, Alberto!” said Doctor Vega as she left the room. Alberto simply nodded his head and followed Doctor Vega out of the room.
