[Not Both Virgins | Reunited After Years Apart | Doctor x Lawyer | Seven-Year Age Gap | One-on-One Romance | He Pretends Not to Know Me]
[Dr. Shen, an emergency surgeon x Lawyer Wen, who specializes in medical malpractice cases]
The night the hearing ended, a family member's thermos fell and shattered on the steps. A shard of glass cut into the web between my right thumb and forefinger.
At the emergency room at two in the morning, the doctor who came to stitch me up was the man who had rejected my internship application three years ago.
He wore a mask and called me "Ms. Wen."
On the third stitch, he said, "Let's see if you dare leave by the west gate alone next time."
I had never told him about the west gate.
Then he called me by name and took the registration slip I had clutched all the way there.
He thought I didn't know. My name is Wen Wan, and medical malpractice is exactly what I handle.
The attending physician for the case I was due to see the next day had the surname Shen.
