Once Bitten, Twice Shy

Vincent stopped walking and turned around.
The restaurant manager rushed up to him and handed over a bag while saying, “Ms. Johnson insisted that I deliver this to you, Doctor. She hopes you’ll accept it.”
Vincent lowered his eyes and looked at the bag.
The contents were undoubtedly that fine-quality bottle of wine from earlier.
Even though she did not get a chance to talk to him and had her invitation declined, she still told the restaurant manager to give the wine away…
There was a hint of intrigue in Vincent’s expression.
He then hinted at Leah, who understood immediately and reached out to accept the gift.
After Vincent left with Leah, the restaurant manager found the phone number that Harmony left behind and informed her of it.
…
At eight the next morning, Harmony walked into the hotel again.
She went to the front desk and requested the receptionist to call Leah’s room. Leah was then asked to inform the doctor that Harmony wanted to see him and would be waiting in the lobby downstairs.
Harmony then went to the lounge and sat on the sofa to wait.
An hour later, Leah knocked on Dr. Jameson’s room door and relayed Harmony’s request after entering. Vincent refused without a second thought. “I’m not meeting any visitors. Tell her to leave.”
“Yes, Doctor.”
Leah went downstairs, walked to Harmony, and said politely, “Hello Ms. Johnson, the doctor is very busy today and won’t be seeing anyone. You should go home.”
Harmony was not surprised by that answer and her expression remained the same. She even said with a smile, “Please let him know that I’m willing to wait until he’s free. Let me know too if he changes his mind.”
There was nothing much Leah could say after seeing Harmony’s stubbornness and nodded politely before going back upstairs.
Harmony meant what she said and sat patiently on the sofa to wait. She waited from morning until night and only got up and left once the clock struck midnight.
On the third day, Harmony similarly went to the hotel at eight in the morning and sat on the sofa to wait.
Leah could not help her amazement after receiving the call from the front desk. Harmony was quite determined considering how she had been snubbed twice.
She walked into Vincent’s room and stood at one side after seeing him on the phone.
The call ended a minute later and Vincent placed his phone down. He turned to look at Leah and asked, “Is Ms. Johnson here today?”
Leah nodded. “She’s been waiting downstairs for an hour.”
“Tell her to come up.”
Leah was somewhat surprised by that.
Although Harmony showed resolve, many people have shown the same resolve in recent years just to seek treatment from Vincent. He, however, had never once given in to them.
Why did he treat Harmony so specially?
Although Leah was very curious, she did not dare to ask and did as she was told. “Yes, Doctor. I’ll go now.”
…
Inside the suite, Vincent and Harmony sat on either side of the sofa.
Leah brought them some freshly-brewed coffee and left.
Vincent took the coffee cup and sipped some coffee before curling his lips into a smile. He said ambiguously, “You’ve not only waited three days but have also shown your sincerity, Ms. Johnson. The least I can do is meet you.”
The phone call in the morning was from his research institute.
A batch of medical equipment had been donated to the institute in Harmony Johnson’s name.
It was the same kind of medical equipment that Timothy had donated.
Harmony was making it amply clear that she was related to Timothy.
Vincent had been swayed by Timothy’s actions and since he had already accepted Timothy’s gesture, there was no reason for him not to meet Harmony.
Furthermore…
Vincent narrowed his eyes but set aside the thoughts in his mind and looked at Harmony again. “You can be upfront with your reasons for seeking me, Ms. Johnson.”
“Dr. Jameson, I’m now unable to conceive due to an injury, and I know that only a gynecologist of your level can treat me at the moment. I’d like to ask you to treat me!” Harmony had a hopeful look in her eyes and her imploring tone was rather clear.
He laced his fingers together and tapped his fingertips lightly as he placed his hands on his knees. “I sympathize with what you’ve been through, Ms. Johnson, I really do. But I already have my hands full with patients, and my rule is to treat patients one-on-one. I can’t spare any time for you because I’ll be leaving in a few days.”
“Please, Doctor. I’m begging you.” Harmony’s eyes turned red. “Doctors are like parents to their patients, and I’m sure you know how sad it is when a woman can’t get pregnant and bear children for her beloved. I can’t be with the man I love because of this and I’m forced to accept other people’s children. Treating me might just be a matter of snapping your fingers, but for me, it’s my path to happiness in life. Please…reconsider it.”
Vincent frowned but did not refuse outright.
Harmony noticed that and knew that her pleas were working. Tears welled up immediately in her eyes and slid down her cheeks. “Dr. Jameson, I’ll kneel to ask you for help…”
She immediately stood up and knelt with a thud.
Vincent and Leah watched from one side and were astonished when Harmony went for that,m…. . Leah hurriedly went to help her up, “Please don’t be like that, Ms. Johnson…”
Harmony ignored Leah and looked tearfully at Vincent.
After a brief deadlock, Vincent sighed, stepped forward, and personally reached out to hold Harmony’s hand. “Okay. I’ll help you.”
Harmony stood up, wiped her tears, and said gratefully. “Thank you, Doctor. I’m really grateful. Thank you.”
…
Due to time constraints, Vincent brought Harmony directly to the hospital for a comprehensive health examination.
Almost four hours had passed after three examinations were done and the results were analyzed. It was not until eight that evening that Harmony received a call from Vincent.
He explained to her, “Based on the results of your physical examination report, your fertility can be restored after treatment.”
Harmony broke out crying right away.

She cried crocodile tears in front of Vincent earlier that morning, but the tears she shed after hearing his words were genuine.
Of course, Harmony was crying because her suffering was finally over and her good times were just beginning!
She no longer needed the child in Samantha’s womb and she might even venture to say that it became a thorn in her side. How she wished she could destroy that baby soon!
Harmony’s baby must become the Barkers’ heir if she was finally able to get pregnant. Timothy would certainly be very happy too.
Harmony could not wait to share the good news with Timothy. She picked up her phone, gave the number ‘1’ a long press, and then dialed the number..

Harmony reached out to tuck a lock of hair behind her ear and smiled before initiating the conversation, “Thank you for meeting me, Dr. Jameson.”Leah brought them some freshly-brewed coffee and left.
