Romance: Assistant to the Billionaire (9 page)

“I’ve only just read your file, Mr. Phillips. I do not have an intimate knowledge of your situation.”

“Nurse, I’m sure that you’re qualified or you wouldn’t be working in this hospital.”

“I am qualified but I as I said I was just curious. Plus, as I’m sure you know, it will only take a nurse a few minutes to familiarize themselves with your file and your care, so I’m almost positive that you’re up to something else,” I say looking at him in the eyes.

He nods his head, smiles and I look away.

Dr. Williams walks back into the room with a big smile on his face and I know that it can only mean one thing.

Archer Phillips was about to have me as his live in nurse.

“The hospital has agreed to loan nurse Lara out for two weeks granted that you make that sizeable donation to the hospital,” he says as he looks at Archer deep into his eyes.

Archer smiles.

“You will have the check in your hands before I leave the hospital today. Nurse, you might want to go home and pack up some things because you will be moving in my penthouse immediately. Hand me your phone so that I can program my address into it.”

I walk over to his bed and hand him my phone. He puts his address inside of my navigation and hands it back to me.

“Be at my penthouse by three-thirty tomorrow. Don’t be late or I will take it out of your paycheck.”

“Um…”

“Don’t worry nurse. I will pay you very well for your time.”

I nod my head and walk out of the room.

What the hell just happened?

Nobody even asked me if I wanted to do it!

I can’t believe that the hospital would just loan me out like that… but everything was politics.

Money meant everything to this hospital and they will get it anyway that they can, even if it meant pimping out their nurses. I guess I couldn’t complain though, I’m sure that whatever he was paying me would be more than what this hospital was paying.

I step onto the elevator and press the down button to go to the parking garage.

Maybe my life was finally about to look up a little bit.

There was always a rainbow after a storm, right?

Maybe working with Archer would be my rainbow?

Not that I’m after a rainbow – all I’m interested in is the extra cash.
