    Chapter 1706


    Romeo settled his gaze on Arabe, his voice hushed with intrigue, "You did a lifesaving stint at the


    hospital yesterday?"


    "Just a deal," she replied curtly.


    With those three words, Romeo pieced it together. She must have performed surgery for someone in


    exchange for a reward.


    "The hospital you went to happened to be under his name," Romeo rified.


    That''s when Arabe connected the dots. No wonder Derrick knew about her identity as Dr. Bell.


    "It''s all destiny, pure destiny," Derrick chuckled, trying to lighten the mood. He couldn''t believe that the


    girl he''d taken a fancy to was his best mate''s fiancée.


    He felt an urge to cry.


    At that moment, it seemed like the whole world was basking in love and affection, leaving him the sole


    castaway in the sea of solitude.


    Even Timothy, the eternal bachelor, managed to snag a coffee date.


    While he hadn''t even started dating, he already felt like going through a breakup!


    Timothy was astonished at Arabe''s aplishments, not to mention her secret identity as a medical


    prodigy. She looked no older than a teenager, yet she was already a lead surgeon.


    The surgeons at Derrick''s hospital were notoriously arrogant, but they allowed Arabe to be the lead.


    Her medical skills must be off the charts.


    "We were just guessing what upation the girl he likes might have."


    Perhaps worried that Arabe would feel out of ce and bored, Romeo brought up their earlier


    conversation, with his eyes shifting to Derrick, "So which is it? Artist, author, celebrity, teacher,wyer,


    or doctor?"


    Derrick felt an even stronger urge to cry. Please, no more questions, he silently pleaded, already


    feeling utterly humiliated.


    Just then, Timothy had his mouth dropped open as if he had figured something out, "You were at the


    hospital yesterday and saw Arabe in surgery, and then you mentioned meeting a special girl. You''re


    not talking about?"


    He shifted his gaze incredulously between Derrick and Arabe, while Romeo narrowed his eyes with a


    hint of danger.


    "Quit joking around," Derrick,with his survival instincts kicking in, quickly deflected, "Arabe, don''t get


    it wrong, Timothy just loves to tease."


    Arabe didn''t jump to conclusions, but Romeo seemed to see right through Derrick with his intense


    stare.


    He quietly asked the girl beside him, "Be, did you encounter anyone unusual at the hospital?"


    Arabe shook her head.


    She had spent only two hours in the rest room after the surgery, waiting till that Sean guy woke up and


    signed the ind sale agreement before leaving.


    "The special girl I mentioned is a celebrity. Maybe when I catch her interest, I''ll introduce her to you."


    With this deflection, Derrick grabbed a cup of coffee and took a couple of sips,ughing to mask his


    difort.


    Timothy was about to point out that it was his coffee but seeing Derrick already sipping from it, he


    decided to keep quiet.


    "What''s her name?" Romeo''s gaze remained fixed on Derrick. "I remember you said once that the


    showbiz crowd wasn''t your cup of tea."


    "Just, you know, the one who ys the piano and sings beautifully." Derrick was clueless about the


    current celebrities; he''d lost interest in the entertainment industry long ago after finding none of the


    celebrities appealing.


    "A musical talent? My fiancée might know her," Romeo mentioned, casting a tender nce at Arabe


    as he introduced, "My fiancée has two other personas: she''s Melody and Summer."


    "You gotta be kidding." Both Derrick and Timothy looked utterly shocked. This woman had already


    revealed so many facets of her life, and now she was also Maestro Melody and Teacher Summer?


    Not too long ago, the inte buzzed with spection when Summer made a surprise appearance at a
