Chapter 5 - I Love You (1/2)
Things began to develop fast between Deyna and Bernard, the CEO of Cooper Entertainment, and soon enough, they got engaged.
”Bernard, what if I come from a bad family, or what if I was a bad person before? Remember, I had gunshot wounds when Chief Doctor Song found me.” Deyna expressed her concerns as they were watching the grand private wedding of the Kens' bachelors.
Bernard looked at Deyna lovingly and pinched her cheeks.
”You're so cute that I don't care about your past. So, don't worry because this man loves you too much to abandon you for your background. I care for nothing else but to be with you for the rest of my life,” Bernard said and kissed her cheek that made Deyna blush hard.
Bernard just loved Deyna's bashful reaction to his every word.
He narrowed his eyes and stared directly at her and added, ”I think you put a potion in the herbs you kept on giving me. Tell me honestly, hon, you have mixed a love potion there, haven't you? To blind me with my love for you?”
Deyna gently punched his chest and murmured, ”Stop teasing me!”
Bernard laughed and hugged her. Next week the two of them were also going to enter the altar of matrimony.
”Hon, tomorrow I will introduce you to my closest cousin. I will tell you now that he and I look so much alike that we are often mistaken as twins. He is a doctor too, but he's a quack doctor, unlike you, hahaha,” said Bernard laughing.
Deyna pouted her lips and murmured, ”I'm considered a quack doctor too, you know. I don't even know if I'm a legitimate doctor.”
”Nah, you have saved Ryu Ken's life. You were the only doctor who managed to bring him back to life. I told you that we can have your background investigated, but you always refuse. I still think it's important to know your past, Deyna,” Bernard said in an earnest tone.
”But I'm afraid, Bernard. Besides, I'm happy for who I am and what I have right now,” Deyna said, smiling. She couldn't ask for more, having Bernard by her side and the Ken Family who treated her as one of theirs, she was happy.
”By the way, what's your cousin's name? I hope he likes me since he's your closest cousin,” Deyna asked. She was excited to get to know another member of Bernard's family.
”Hmm… Everybody will like you, hon, so just be yourself. He is the closest one to me because he always protects me. He's like a protective brother. He's just a little bit older than me. I'm not sure if you have heard about him. He is the CEO of Yang Global Hospitals, Xander Yang.” Bernard said.
'Xander Yang?' She repeated inwardly.
Weird, the name sounded so familiar to her, but she couldn't precisely determine how.
”Hon, let's listen if their vows are better than ours.” Bernard suddenly whispered in her ear, so her thoughts shifted back to the wedding ceremony.
They congratulated the newlyweds.
