Chapter 497 - My Eyes Will Only See You (2/2)
He heard Cali scoff and then mumble, ”I don't need a bodyguard doc. I want to go out alone if you don't mind.”
Rui was taken aback… He was aware Cali loved to go out with friends and party most of her life but then in this country, she had no friends…
”But you don't know anyone here so…”
”Who said that? I have friends all over the globe. Besides, one of my closest friends will arrive today to accompany me here. He will study at the same school with me…”
Rui panicked. Why was he not aware of that? Who was she talking about? And she said 'HE'? A male friend? He only knew about one male friend of hers… And it was Kane…
”That's good, you have friends here then. But I don't have one… I only know you here, so can I also tag along please?” Rui begged almost shamelessly.
Cali was caught off guard and unconsciously nodded. But then realized something, and suddenly uttered, ”Oh wait… I'll first have to ask Kane if it's okay with him. That man hates it if someone tags along when we go out…”
It was true… Kane would always complain if she brought a classmate when the two of them went for a walk. He would always say that he is not fond of mingling with other people when they are together. Cali could even recall the annoyed expression of Kane's face.
Rui's face darkened as he explained, ”I'm your private doctor, Cali. You do know that you're my responsibility. Why do you even need his permission? He will understand and I will talk to him if he doesn't.”
He never heard of Kane since he left the country and now that Cali lost her memory about him, he was back? Why? Because Cali remembered him?
Rui felt his chest tighten. He knew Kane loved Cali and he could bet that he still felt the same as he agreed to fly miles only to be with her.
”Did you inform him that you're with me?” he asked.
”Oh, I forgot to tell him. I just told him about my plans of studying here and he said he will accompany me…” Cali answered with a twisted mouth. Maybe she should call Kane and inform him?
”You should inform Kane and tell him that he can't go out with you unless you are with me….”
Cali's eyebrows raised hearing that as she hissed, ”And why is that?”
Why did she feel like her private doctor was nuzzling his nose too much into her private life?
”I told you already. You're my responsibility... I am to blame if anything happens to you on my watch. So you should expect that my eyes will only see you no matter what happens…”
For some reason, Cali blushed at these last words… His eyes would only see her? She wondered if there could be another meaning to it, but then hastily brushed that impossible thought. Since the two of them just met, she should not give any meaning at all to whatever he said.
He was her private doctor and very well knew how her grandfather could be… She knew that Dr. Rui Dee was only being professional.
