The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 909 Is He Frank
Elizabeth walked into the office at the corner.
Seeing Frankâs nameplate hanging on the door, she raised her fist and knocked. âHello? Dr. Watson?
Are you in there?â
The door budged, but no one answered.
Elizabeth gently pushed the door open and glanced around. The office was empty.
Coincidentally, a nurse walked out of the office next to Frankâs. Elizabeth poked her head out and
asked the nurse, âHello. Is Dr. Watson still operating at this time?â The nurse, with her head lowered,
leafed through the papers on her clipboard, and answered, âIâm not sure, but itâs late, so he is probably
out for dinner. You may wait for him in his office if you want.â
Elizabeth nodded. Then, she went back inside Frankâs office and made herself comfortable.
Frankâs office was different from what Elizabeth had imagined. Doctors in TV shows always seemed to
be neat freaks. All their things had their proper places and were arranged in an orderly manner.
In comparison, Frankâs office was in a state of organized chaos. All the books and other reading
materials seemed to be stashed randomly. Also, the office was decorated very simply. There wasnât
much other than a desk and a few chairs.
A pillow was on the floor beside the deck chair. It mustâve fallen there. Elizabeth picked up the pillow
and, without really thinking about it, began to straighten up the place.
When she was finished, she checked the time and realized that almost an hour had already passed. It
was also getting dark outside.
She didnât want to wait for nothing, so she called Janet. âJanet, I think Dr. Watson isnât here. Iâve been
waiting a long time, but I havenât seen him. How about I come back tomorrow?â Elizabeth felt helpless.
At this time, Janet was already home, lying in her manâs arms, and watching TV. She replied, âThatâs
impossible. I asked Brandon to call the hospital as soon as I was done with work, and he told me that
Frank was still there. You can wait a little longer. Maybe Frank is almost done with whatever heâs
doing.â
âBut Iâm afraid that heâll just tell me the same thing. Iâve seen several doctors before.â Elizabeth was
afraid that sheâd just receive another blow from Frank. She was concerned that heâd tell her that he
didnât know what was wrong with her hand and had no idea how to fix it. âMaybe the doctors you saw
before didnât perform a thorough examination,â Janet comforted her over the phone.
âYou always like saying nice things, donât you?â Elizabeth sat on the chair, feeling exhausted.
âItâs impossible that your hand canât be cured. If anyone can fix it, itâs Frank. His skills are legendary in
the medical industry.â Noticing that Elizabethâs voice took on a low timbre, Janet felt concerned.
Elizabeth pursed her lips. With a bitter smile on her face, she said, âIf my hand is already a lost
cause⦠Then maybe itâs retribution.â
Feeling even more anxious, Janet replied, âDonât be so negative. Frank is a great doctor. Iâm sure he
can help you. And did I mention that heâs also good looking? You canâ Ouch! Brandon! Why did you
pinch me?â
Elizabeth became more depressed. She said with a sigh, âIâll let you go now. You just got home from
work. You should rest. Iâll talk to you later, okay?â
Before Janet could say anything else, Elizabeth hung up and then left Frankâs office.
But as soon as she walked out the door, she bumped into a male doctor who was taking off his surgical
gown.
âIâm sorry,â the doctor apologized without raising his head.
Elizabeth looked up at him and found that he looked exhausted. He looked very slovenly, and there
were dark circles under his eyes. He put his lab coat over his shoulder, walked past Elizabeth like a
ghost, and shuffled into Frankâs office.
Then, Elizabeth snapped back to her senses. Was that man Frank Watson?
But he looked totally different from what Janet had described. He was disheveled and appeared
dispirited.
Elizabeth wasnât sure if the man was the handsome doctor that Janet had been talking about.
She hesitated for a few seconds and then followed him into the office. When she entered, the doctor
was sitting at the desk, motionless and downcast.
Elizabeth knocked on the door twice, cleared her throat, and then asked, âHi. Are you Dr. Watson?â
