CHAPTER 21
Doctor Matt returned to the hospital to hear some argument in his office. His brows furrowed as he waited by the door to hear more of what he considered ‘arrant nonsense.’
“What exactly do you want, lady?” that was Lolita’s voice.
“You don’t know me, do you?”
“No, which means you are not as important as my best friend who married Alpha Chaos, so stop raising your shoulders and tell me what you want.”
Doc Amy was obviously irritated hearing such demeaning words coming from someone she hates. “Stay away from Matt, I won’t warn you again.”
“Why? What right do you have to tell me that? I’m asking you, Doctor Amy…who are you!!”
“Lolita, right? Don’t be surprised that you slept and didn’t wake up. That’s how crazy I am for him.”
“Hahahaha… you should worry more about yourself. I can be more crazy than you are. Besides, he doesn’t like you, so back off!” she smiled.
At that moment, the door was pushed open and Doc Matt walked in, “What are you doing here?”
Doctor Amy froze. A moment later, she replied with a smile, “Doc Matt, I came to check up on her–”
“Or rather, you came to threaten me to stay away from him, psycho!” Lolita snorted and walked into Matt’s room.
“Th– that’s a lie, I–” words froze in her throat when she looked at his eyes– they were dead serious.
“Drop your resignation letter and leave.”
“Wh– What! Y– You can’t–”
Doc Matt ignored her and tried to walk away but she pulled his hand, catching him by surprise, and attempted to kiss him when he grabbed her by the throat.
“M–Ma–” she was choking and almost dying but Matt wasn’t going to let her off for almost stealing a kiss from him.
“If you want to kill her, please do so outside the hospital…” Lolita had been peeping to see what would happen in her absence. Now that she knew that Doc Amy was no different from her, she was excited but didn’t want him to kill her. After all, Doc Amy is also a good doctor. It would be a shame to lose a fine doctor like her.
Doc Matt shoved her aside and commanded, “Get out!”
Doc Amy coughed a few times before she glared at Lola and stormed out. After she left, Lolita walked out of the room with a smile.
“Doc Matt, you’re ruthless, hehe,” standing by his table, she slowly brushed her fingers through his laptop while saying, “A fine man like you has refused to be with a pretty woman like me who likes you.” she sat on the desk, looking at him seductively.
“What’s the big deal in being with me? You aren’t letting me leave here even after I’m healed, same you, won’t let me love you, what do you want from me, Mr. Matt?”
Doc Matt walked to his chair and sat on it to start working on his computer, totally ignoring all that Lolita was saying.
Lolita smiled and got down. She walked behind him and rested on his chair. “Mr. Matt, I’ll make a good wife, you know.”
Matt could feel her hot breath on the side of his clean face. He looked behind him but almost collided with her face.
“What do you think you’re doing?” he said almost inaudibly.
“What do you think? I’m…” she lowered her voice and whispered to his ear, “seducing you,” she kissed his cheek.
He stiffened for a moment before he continued what he was doing on his laptop.
Lolita smiled, she just tested the waters and it seemed to be drying. Interesting. Her fingers found their way to his shoulders and she started to massage them. “You look exhausted,” she whispered. Her hands slipped down his shoulders and started to rub his chest.
Doc Matt continued typing but paused when she started to unbutton his white shirt. “What are you doing? Stop it.” his heartbeats picked up race and his lower body was slowly starting to react to her provocation.
“Doing what I should have done a long time ago,” she ripped his shirt open, surprising Matt a great deal.
“You like that,” she whispered while her hands roamed his chest.
Matt shut his eyes for a moment to control his urge to grab her and when he opened his eyes again, they were as cold as ever. He held her hand to his chest and got up. Staring her in the eyes, he smirked. “You are daring,” he confessed.
“Not until you drove me crazy with your love,” she closed the distance between them and gently tugged his shirt. “Four years ago, when I saw you at my teacher’s concert, I fell in love with you, Doctor Matt. You were so hard to find. I searched all of Country Y for you but failed. Now that I found you, I won’t let you go.”
The two stood face to face, staring each other in the eyes.
“Give me a try, Matt,” she leaned closer, “For a month,” her nose touched his, their breaths intertwined. “You won’t regret it,” she whispered.
Matt smirked and backed away from her. “Lolita, I’m not the man for you. I can’t love you…”
“Shhhh… she placed a finger on his lips to silence him. “I’m not as weak as you think I am. I know the dangers of being with you.” she drew closer to him again, staring straight into his dark eyes. “Matt, I don’t mind if you can’t love me, but let me love you.” she wrapped her hands around his waist.
Matt shook his head and held her shoulder, making her look at his face. “I love someone else.”
Lolita paused for a moment, her heart felt that. It was painful to be rejected again but she won’t stop, not after everything.
“Does she know? Does she love you back?”
“No,” he subconsciously replied.
Lolita smiled, “Where is she now?”
Matt looked at her and stayed silent for a long time before he replied, “happy.” he couldn’t bring himself to admit that she was with a younger guy, at the same time, he couldn’t deny the fact that she was happy, which also consoles his heart every time he thinks about those love birds.
She drew closer and started to draw small circles on his bare chest, “You must be sad, I know how it feels because…” she paused and turned her back to him. “I’ve been there before. My boyfriend found love in my step-sister and…” she smiled and turned to face him. “That was the day I met you. I went to my teacher’s concert to mourn but, hehe… I never knew I’d meet you up.”
“Mourn? He died?”
“Of course, not…” she shook her head. “The moment he chose someone else over me, he was dead to me, so…”
Matt nodded faintly. Wish it was that easy on his path. “Your health–”
“Doc Matt, forget about work for a moment and have fun with me. Trust me, you won’t regret it.” She pecked his lips and drew back to see his reaction. When he didn’t do anything to avoid her, she leaned in again and captured his lips, then slowly closed her eyes.
From little soft kisses to caressing his lips with the tip of her tongue until he parted his lips and allowed her entrance to his mouth.
When she had provoked him more than he could bear, Matt took control and the slow and steady kisses turned rough, hurried, and wanting. He wrapped his hand around her waist and pulled her up, making her seat on his desk.
His hands roamed her body and found the knot tying her hospital gown from the side and loosened it in a hurry.
His rough actions caused excitement to rush through Lola as she moaned into his mouth. Matt lowered his head to the crook of her neck and slowly started to trail feathering kisses along her naked upper body until he grabbed her bre*st with his mouth.
Lola moaned with pleasure and arched her back to his tender touches. Her core couldn’t be more eager as it throbbed with excitement at the incoming rod.
Matt’s rod was raving mad and needed an escape from its prison (pants). Like Lola heard its small protests, she grabbed his crotch and started to massage it as Doc Matt did wonders to her body.
Not having enough, she hurriedly unbuttoned his belt and unzipped his trousers to free the crying rod.
At that moment when things were about to go down, Matt paused his actions and pulled away. “I’m sorry, Lola, I can’t do this,” he shook his head gently.
Staring at his stark nakedness, Lola felt like crying. He was just a step away from plunging himself into her! They’ve gone that far! They had stimulated every single inch of each other’s smooth bodies, for crying out loud! Her core was soaking wet and his rod was breathing. She could see it going up and down!
How could he stop now? She bit her lower lip harshly and shut her eyes tight. “Why,” she asked. Her voice gave away her disappointment, dissatisfaction, and shame.
Matt knew how she felt. He took his lab coat and drafted it over his shoulders. “Lola–” he was cut off by her annoyed tone.
“Why? What reason are you stopping at this point?!” She opened her eyes to stare back at him.
He held her shoulders and said, “I don’t want to hurt you.”
“Hurt me? Aren’t you already doing that now? Look at me, Matt, I’m vulnerable, I feel like I’m a desperate who*e!” Teardrops slipped down her cheeks. “Am I so bad at this that you can’t pretend to like it at all?”
He shook his head, “That’s not the case… The fault is mine. I don’t want to hurt you.” He said while searching her teary eyes.
Lolita nodded and sniffed, “I understand. You still love that person and might go to her if –”
“That’s not the reason either. It has nothing to do with who I love. Lola, I have defied you, so I’ll take responsibility.”
“You did nothing to me, it was my fault, I seduced you, and I –”
“Be my wife,” he cut her off.
“H– huh?” Lolita was shocked beyond words. “W– w– wife?”
He nodded. “I can’t have sex with you right now until I’ve taken care of some problem I have, so will you be my wife? I’ll make it up to you after I’ve found a cure.”
“C– cure? Are you sick?”
“No,” he released her and walked to the dispenser to get them water. He was still horny but didn’t want to risk being another Maverick.
He returned with two disposable cups of water, handed her one, and took the other. “I have something in me that might cause me to hurt in the process of love-making and I don’t want that.”
Lolita blinked a few times before downing the water in one go. She almost choked, thanks to her haste.
“Th– then, ma– ahem…” she cleared her throat. “Marriage, what did you mean? Is it love?”
“You’re my first, meaning… you’re mine now. But love, there’s no love, however, I won’t treat you wrongly.”
“Oh,” Lolita smiled. What a good luck! She’s his first and it automatically made her his wife. Love can grow later… hehehe…
“Go wash up, I’ll get someone to bring you clothes. Put them on, we’re going to register our marriage.” Without letting her say a word, he proceeded to make a few calls and also got someone to bring him a set of wedding rings.
Just like that, Lolita got married to Doc Matt behind everyone’s back.

CHAPTER 22
A few days later, Doc Matt was seen taking a shower while thinking about Lolita’s wounds. All of a sudden, a page in a book flashed past his mind and he instantly froze for a while before he dashed out of the bathroom with soap on him.

THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 21 – 30
A few minutes later, Doc Matt was seen rushing towards Maverick’s mansion. Getting into the house, he hurried to Maverick’s room.
He rang the doorbell a couple of times before banging on it with all his strength. He had called Maverick countless times but he wouldn’t pick up.
“What the f*ck is he doing?!” He banged on the door repeatedly until it was opened.
“What the fuc–” he held back his tongue when he saw Jeslyn under the black and white sheets. “Sorry for intruding,” he apologized to Jeslyn before going out.
Maverick kissed Jeslyn on her sweaty forehead before getting out of bed while naked. “I won’t take long,” he promised before taking out a black cloak and grafting it over his shoulders.
“Don’t go yet, let me wash you up.” Her voice came out like a whisper.
Maverick didn’t argue and waited for her to get down from the bed. Walking behind her, he couldn’t help staring at her sexy and clean body.
“Stop staring, you’ve eaten more than enough for today,” she said without looking back and pushed open the bathroom door.
“There’s no crime in appreciating my wife, is there?”
“That was what you said, then we ended under the sheets,” she grumbled.
“Your fault,” he hugged her from behind as she was about to turn on the tap.
“Stop blaming me, own up to your responsibility, Mr. Lu!”
“I can’t when you keep showing me how pretty you are.” He kissed her neck and started to work his way around her body with his hands.
Jeslyn smiled and shook her head, “Your friend needs you, you should go to him,” she turned around and took off his cloak.
Maverick refused to do anything to help himself wash up. Seeing this, Jeslyn had no choice but to bathe her husband like she was bathing a child.
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 21 – 30
Maverick, on the other hand, was all smiles as he complied to everything his wife was doing. Once she was done, she pointed at the door, “I want to bathe, go meet your friend.”
“You don’t need it… but I’ll go,” he lowered his head and kissed her for a long time before he left unwillingly.
Maverick entered his study room, feeling annoyed.
“Do you have a death wish?” He glared coldly at Doc Matt.
“It seems I came at the wrong time, but I’m not sorry,” Matt snorted.
“What urgency brought you here without informing me first?”
“Says who? I thought you were kidnapped when you stopped answering your calls.” Matt rolled his eyes.
That was when it occurred to him that Jeslyn had put his phone on silent before they engared in love-making.
“Ahem… Why are you here?” he cleared his throat, not feeling remorse for wrongfully accusing his friend.
“Your wife…”
Maverick fixed his unwavering stare at him. “What about her?”
“Why did you give her a Rainborite ring?”
“You finally had an idea after so long?” Maverick shook his head and took a seat.
“How could you not tell me that for so long? Making me waste so much time in research and cure?”
Maverick raised a brow with his legs crossed and hands folded on his chest. He refused to say a word.
Matt sighed in resignation before asking, “Ever since you gave her the rainborite stone ring, has she had any meaningful incident?”
Maverick shook his head.
“What about bedroom matters, has she shown any sign of convulsion after that last time?”
“No, she didn’t.”
“How hard do you go on her?”
“Harder than I’ve ever had.”
“You mean, just now?”
Maverick nodded.
Doc Matt glared at him, “beast!” He said under his breath before continuing. “I seem to have made a discovery.”
“What did you find?” Matt’s words piqued Maverick’s interest and he gave him his full attention.
“You made the rainborite stone into a ring for your wife because you suspected it could help her illness?”
“Mn,” he replied.
“And you didn’t think it was necessary to tell me, her doctor?” Matt frowned.
“It wasn’t certain.”
“It wasn’t but it could have helped me a lot in my research!” Matt repeated. He couldn’t resign to the fact that Maverick was ahead of him in his own profession.
“Are you blaming me for your incompetency? Didn’t you read the book like I did?” Maverick raised a brow in a mocking matter.
Matt pointed a finger, “Y– you, you–” he sighed and shook his head, “Forget it, forget it, there’s no point arguing with you. So, tell me what you found after watching her. Let me know if it goes well with my discovery.”
“Nothing.”
“Ha! You’re so irresponsible!” Matt didn’t know how to let out his annoyance, this idiot!
“Before I talk to you any further, get your wife ready for testing. I can’t make claims without proof!” He left and went to the lab.
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 21 – 30
A while later, Maverick entered the lab with Jeslyn. Doc Matt didn’t waste time before doing a thorough test on her.
After some hours of retesting and confirmation, Matt put his things aside and said to the two;
“The stone is indeed working, albeit slowly–”
“I’m healing?!” Jeslyn asked in alarm.
Matt nodded but before she could smile, he said; “From the little I was fortunate to read from the ancient book, it heals wounds. I deduced that the stone also purifies the blood but I don’t know to what extent. In addition, I have no idea what else it does since I didn’t read the missing pages but from your friend’s situation, it seems that it heals wounds too. However, I’d like to know, how did Lola get entangled with the rainborite stone?” Matt and Maverick fixed their gazes on Jeslyn.
“H– huh?” Jeslyn looked confusedly from Matt to her husband.
“Your friend was supposed to die from the bullet wound… she was shot in the heart. Also, after treating her, her wounds disappeared. It took me days to finally remember the damaged text I read from the ancient book,” he looked at Maverick.
“When the glow of the rainborite stone comes in contact with a wound, it heals.” Maverick quoted.
“Yes, but what triggers the stone’s effect?” Matt frowned. He has no idea.
“Blood, tears, and sorrow…” Maverick replied while looking at Jeslyn.
“It wasn’t in the book,” Matt said.
“Mn. I got that from studying my wife.” He smirked.
“You– didn’t you say you had no idea when I asked you earlier?!”
“I’m not obliged to answer all your questions, am I?” Maverick asked with a smile on his lips.
“Ho!” Doc Matt exclaimed in disbelief. He fanned his face with his hands, restraining himself from punching Maverick in his annoying face.
Maverick chuckled when he saw the hard work his friend was putting in just to hold himself back from fighting. Serves him right. Who told him to disturb Maverick’s peace? Maverick was about to hit climax when he heard Matt banging on his door like he was told that Maverick was banging his wife.
About the stone… Maverick read that Rainborite stone has a magical effect on sick people but had no idea what exactly it was, so he made the stone into a ring for Jeslyn. Although he didn’t know beforehand what triggers the stone to reveal its magic, he was sure from what he read, that the Rainborite stone wouldn’t harm her.
So later when Jeslyn started telling him about her experience with the stone, he started putting everything down, hoping to inform Matt when he had gathered enough results.
Now that they know that it purifies the blood and heals wounds, Maverick was more than happy.
“We’ll keep studying it to know its full potential. At this rate, she’d take about ten years of undisturbed healing to be whole again… but I think that the bigger the stone, the quicker she’d heal,” Matt said while staring at Maverick.
“You mean…” Maverick frowned slightly.
Matt nodded, “You have to find where the Rainborite ore disappeared to… but to be sure if my assumption is right, get Damien to come over. I need to test the stone on him.”
“Use the same method you used on my son,” Maverick refused for many reasons.
“Your son is different. He wasn’t battling another virus except for ATOM. Damien on the other hand, was injected with ATOM a few months ago, but before then, he had something else in him.” Matt couldn’t dive deep because Jeslyn was there. It is better she doesn’t know about the existence of the virus they all had.
Maverick understood where he was going. The Dark Age organization injected a few of them with some unknown virus that makes them go wild in bed.
“The hearts of men cannot be trusted,” Maverick warned.
“I know, that’s why I intend to drug him when he comes, so he won’t know about your wife’s Rainborite ring… Also, if we can experiment with him and find the cure…” Maverick didn’t let him complete his statement before he agreed.
“Better.”
“Isn’t he your friend now?” Jeslyn frowned as she looked at her husband. “How can you think of experimenting with someone who thinks you to be a friend?”
“He hasn’t paid the price for what he did to you. I didn’t let you exercise your revenge on him because I wanted to punish him myself, but there’s no better way than this,” Maverick explained.
“But he returned my property and brought Emilee to me. Isn’t that enough atonement for his crime?”
“Is it?” Maverick raised a brow.
Seeing that the couple was about to fight, Matt pointed at the door, “You two, leave through that door, I need some peace.”
“This is my house,” Maverick fired back.
“You mean, my lab?” Matt rolled his eyes and left the two, not forgetting to remind them to leave his laboratory.
THE LAST MINUTE GROOM SEASON 3: CHAPTER 21 – 30
After he left, Jeslyn stared at her husband speechlessly for a long time before asking; “What is a friend to you?”
“Someone I’d die for,” he replied.
Jeslyn was tongue-tied for a moment. “I’m concerned about Kimberly. She loves him and would be heartbroken if anything happens to him.”
“You were hurt too. My son was separated from you for six years. Besides, Damien knew I won’t let him off.”
Jeslyn sighed. Indeed, she suffered the brunt of Damien’s schemes but still, she wouldn’t be able to find peace if anything happens to him. Damien seems to be level–headed these days, plus he was remorseful and did all he could to redeem himself. Most of all, he wasn’t responsible for her grandfather’s death.
Maverick flattened his lips. His wife is still very kind. But what if he tells her that he suffered the most from Damien’s schemes?
First, he was deceived to think that his Rossa was Vera. He slept with that lady, something he never wished to do. He was deeply hurt after she left, he neglected himself and his son for years, developing chronic insomnia. Damien also helped the Xu family kidnap his son which later resulted in them injecting the child with ATOM.
Even though Damien had no idea that the Xu family would do something so horrible, Maverick refused to forgive him.
He sat beside Jeslyn and pulled her for a hug. “I don’t wish for him to die. If he is used for the experiment, there are two things involved. Either he is cured of all the viruses in him, which would give him an advantage over his twin brother, or he develops another incurable virus. Moreover, if he dies from the experiment, Kimberly can’t bear the loss.”
Jeslyn shook her head and cupped his face. “It’s not as easy as you make it sound, Plum. I was able to bear my grandfather and mother’s death, but you and Valen, what do you think will happen to me if any of you is badly hurt?” She searched his emotionless eyes for a moment before she said; “I’d stop living…”
Maverick flattened his lips as emotions surfaced in his cold eyes. He pulled his wife for a hug and promised; “I won’t die unless you tell me to…”
That statement dug a hole in Jeslyn’s heart. She felt it deep down in her heart as her eyes teared up.
“Plum…”
“Shhh… don’t say anything. Allow me,” he brushed his palm over her long and silky black hair. “Loving you is my greatest joy and giving me Valen is more than what I can ever ask for. I would do anything for you and our son, but I can’t let those who hurt you and our son go scot-free.”
He disengaged from the hug and held her shoulders, looking deep into her hazel eyes. “I promise you, I won’t kill Damien, but he has to face the consequences of his actions.”
