The Julie Swift gives the handsome man an adjective, which just fits in with what he is, but under the pressure of being a doctor, Alice just smiles politely and says, "Hello, Mr. Collins."
"Initially I am wondering if I need to reintroduce myself." With a smile appearing on his thin lips, Randall Collins’ dark eyes stare straight at Alice Roberts, and his deep voice is particularly seductive.
Although he is indeed smiling, the look in his eyes makes her feel uncomfortable. It's like she’s being targeted.
"What can I do for you, Mr. Collins?"
“Do you like it? “Randall Collins asks with a smile. He does not answer directly but raises a bunch of lavender and hands it to Alice Roberts.
Alice Roberts is speechless, so now, instead of asking someone else to send flowers, he intends to send them himself, doesn’t he?
"Well, Mr. Collins, actually I've been meaning to tell you that I don't like flowers very much. So, there’s no need for sending me flowers ever after, and it costs much." "She says quite euphemistic.
However, Randall Collins seems unable to understand what she is saying and asks rhetorically, "What do you like? I'll buy it for you next time."
As a result, Alice Roberts has to be blunt, "Mr. Collins, I think you are mistaken. I am actually married." Later I just divorce.
But in order to make the man in front of her give up, Alice Roberts has to use this trump card.
Randall Collins is shocked. Is Alice Roberts married?
Edward Smith would not have an affair with a married woman in private, would he? Intuitively, Randall Collins thinks it is unlikely. That is to say, the woman in front of him lies to get rid of him.
"If you don't like my direct approach, Miss Roberts, we can start by being friends. I think you are a very kind and attractive woman, and I want to have more contact with you."
Randall Collins looks at Alice Roberts with a sincere look. He used to pick up women with just one word or one look, you know!
To get close to Alice Roberts, he even expressly gets to know tricks, which will help win the heart of women like Alice Roberts.
He has spent a week sending flowers, and now he is coming in person. He has never done that for a woman within the twenty years. He does not believe that he could not conquer Alice Roberts.
"I'm sorry. I'm not only married but have two kids as well. If that's all right with you, I have to go around the wards, I'm sorry. “After saying this, Alice Roberts intends to leave, as “of all thirty-six stratagems, fleeing is the best”.
"Dr. Roberts, Dr. Roberts..."
Seeing her leaving stealthily in front of him, Randall Collins wants to run after her. But Julie Swift happens to stop in front of him, which makes him almost lose his temper. Considering that the woman is Alice Roberts’ friend, Randall Collins could only bear it and says, "Please make way." "Oh, I'm sorry. I am not aware of being in your way."
Julie Swift says sorry words as if she has given way.
But when Randall Collins turns left, she turns left. While he turns right, she turns right. Blocked by Julie Swift again, his face darkens and asks "Do you do it on purpose?"
Randall Collins looks glum, but Julie Swift unabashedly smiles, "Yes, I have seen so many rich boys like you. You are only playing with Alice’s affections with a dirty mind. Don't get close to Alice, humph! "
No one dares to talk to him like this, let alone an ordinary little nurse. Randall Collins smiles coldly, "Really? Do you think you can prevent me?"
"Have a try if you dare!" Julie Swift straightens up her unnoticeable breast, with no fear of Randall Collins’ threat.
But the next second, Randall Collins directly puts the flowers in her hands, leaving a sentence, "I will not give up." Then he leaves without looking back.
Leaving her in a mess, it is the situation to fight, isn’t it?
When Alice Roberts comes back, Julie Swift tells her the words that Randall Collins has left. She says doubtfully, "Although he talks glibly, can he really like you if he is so persistent?"
Although Julie Swift despises the rich second generation who use money to insult people, she still has fantasies about idol drama. She could not help thinking that, if it were true, it would be a good thing for Alice.
“No! I'm not thinking about having a boyfriend.”
Alice Roberts interrupts Julie Swift and speaks seriously. She is afraid that Julie Swift draws up the idea of setting them together, so she must let her know that she really has no such intention.
Unexpectedly, Julie Swift narrows her eyes and asks mysteriously, "Well, how about the man who came to see you last time?"
The last time?
For a moment, Alice Roberts quickly realizes that Julie Swift is talking about Edward Smith.
Speaking of him, he has not come to see her for a while. She has run him down in his office the last time, thinking that his character would send him to her the next day.
I think with his character, he would come over the next day for revenge.
Only Joanna Hale came, but he never showed up...
"I know, I know, all right. Next time this Mr. Collins comes, I'll help you stop him." Julie Swift pats Alice Roberts on the shoulder, gives her a thoughtful look, and says that she is busy, and leaves the clinic.
Alice Roberts is dumbstruck. She doesn't seem to express anything.
What does Julie Swift know?
The next day, Randall Collins comes again. But this time he is not holding flowers.
He wears smart suit, and dresses up mature and handsome, attracting the nurses in the hospital to look around. Seeing him going to Alice Roberts 's room, all people show the expression of "So that is what it is". They get together in twos and threes and whispers.
Randall Collins knocks twice, pushes the door and opens. He looks at her unexpectedly.
It’s troublesome for Alice Roberts. Why do her words make no effect? I’ve already told him I am married!
"It’s almost noon, I just ask the nurse in the outpatient department to know that you have no appointment today. Should you be free to have a meal with me?" Randall Collins says with preparation.
The corner of Alice Roberts’ mouth twitches. Does the nurse in the outpatient department have nothing to do?
"I’m sorry, I..."
"Do you find it useful to run away from me? Why don't we have a meal and get to know each other? Maybe you'll change your mind."
Alice Roberts feels that not much can be done to change this situation. Well, explain it over dinner.
Perhaps getting closer would teach him that she is a very boring person who could do nothing but be a doctor.
Randall Collins sees she does not refuse, with black eyes flashing a little proud, and he says there is no woman he couldn’t pick up. It is easy to pick up Alice Roberts when Edward Smith is absent.
"I haven't got off work so soon. Why don't you give me your address and I'll arrive there by taxi later?" "Says Alice Roberts.
"That's all right, I'll wait for you. If it's not convenient, I can wait in a nearby cafe until you get off work." Randall Collins says like a gentleman.
So, Alice Roberts has to go to Julie Swift and explain a few words.
Julie Swift looks at Randall Collins, who is standing in the room, puzzled, and asks in a low voice, "Don’t you say you don’t like him? Why do you go out for dinner with him?"
