Elizabeth left Franciscan Medical Center in a hurry.
That man is exasperating… undeniably good looking, but good looks can only go so far. His personality is so bad that she is confident how his accident must be some karma because he mistreats people.
Now that she thinks about her interactions with him, she approached him with an intention to help because she suspected that he was hurt in an accident. And what did she get? Bad attitude and he had no problems leaving her in the rain! And then he shamelessly flirted with her in the ambulance van. What was that about? Did he really think that his charming smile and few kind words will work after he mistreated her? And his lines were cheesy. Liz can imagine that maybe some girls might be swayed by him, but she is not SOME girl. After all that, she still decided to go and check on him, and what did she get? More attitude. That man is horrible, and she hopes to never bump into him again.
Back to present…
Liz is enjoying a scrumptious meal in a restaurant with an amazing view while checking on her tablet listings for the apartments she wants to see in person. She selected them during previous few days while waiting for her interview, but she didn't want to go and see them before she gets a confirmation that she got the job.
Five apartments, all of them seem acceptable and are fairly close to the Franciscan Medical Center. And she can visit all of them this afternoon. Perfect.
…
Liz's afternoon passed very quickly.
After in-person inspection, choice of five apartments got reduced to two. They are comparable in terms of amenities, space, and everything she needs, but each has one appeal over the other.
Her choice number one is closer to the Franciscan Medical Center, while choice number two has an amazing view.
She got an assurance from each of the building managers that they will hold them for 24 hours. By then she needs to confirm her interest and put a deposit, or they will make those apartments available for other interested parties.
A tough choice. Walking distance to work vs. great views of the piers and the Seattle Great Wheel that only a penthouse can provide.
She decided to sleep on it.
…
While Liz was contemplating about her apartment choices, Max's day was not getting better.
Because he had to be watched for 24 hours after the accident, Hunter brought him to their family home instead of Max's apartment.
Max locked himself into his old room and decided to sleep on it. If he is sleeping, they will not disturb him. His only regret is that tonight he can't go out clubbing with Quentin.
Max woke up grumbling. Who dares to poke him in the cheek and wake him up? Didn't he lock the door?
He opened his eyes lazily and he realized that he is looking at his older sister. ”Rina? Why are you here?”
Sabrina grinned. ”They called me for a family edition of an intervention*. Can't I come and visit my younger brother after he had a car accident?”
Max's face contorted in anger. ”Hunter!”
Sabrina laughed. ”Don't blame him. The police called to say that they finished collecting evidence from your car and that you can pick it up.”
”Crap!”, Max put his face in the pillow and cursed for some time. ”I gave them my cell phone as a contact.”
”Yes. But you didn't pick up, so they called the second number, which is our home.”
Max checked his phone and confirmed number of unanswered calls. Ah, he put his phone on silence so that he can sleep.
”Is Jackson here?”, Max asked about Sabrina's fiancé.
”No. He is on a business trip.” Sabrina stood up and pushed her long blonde hair behind her shoulders. ”Get up! Everyone else is at the table, waiting for you.”
Max exhaled. He wished to jump out the window, but he knows that he can't avoid what is coming.
…
”So, will you tell us what happened?”, Nathaniel, Max's father, asked Max while controlling himself not to burst from rage.
