**When The Ocean Learned My Name and Whispered It Back to You by Aurelia Novel 354**<\/p>\n
**Chapter 354**<\/p>\n
Elliot found himself at a loss for words, his mind racing yet utterly blank.<\/p>\n
\u2018What\u2019s so wrong with playing the victim? At least it\u2019s preferable to watching your wife run off with someone else,\u2019 he mused bitterly, grappling with the weight of his thoughts.<\/p>\n
Just as he opened his mouth to respond, Julian\u2019s phone screen illuminated with an incoming video call. With a mixture of boredom and annoyance, he raised an eyebrow and answered, \u201cIt\u2019s early. What do you want?\u201d<\/p>\n
Raymond had just stepped out of the inpatient wing, his hand casually tucked into the pocket of his pristine white coat. \u201cI heard you got hurt. Thought I\u2019d extend my condolences,\u201d he said, his voice dripping with feigned sympathy.<\/p>\n
Julian\u2019s response was icy, laced with sarcasm. \u201cCondolences, or did you just call to gawk at my misfortune?\u201d<\/p>\n
Raymond coughed, the sound escaping him unexpectedly as he glanced at the bruise marring Julian\u2019s face. \u201cSydney must be heartbroken, huh?\u201d he remarked, a hint of mockery in his tone.<\/p>\n
It felt as if every last one of them was prodding at a wound that refused to heal.<\/p>\n
Last night, Sydney had been fully aware of his fight with Caleb, yet she hadn\u2019t bothered to send him a single message. This morning, he had intended to intercept her by the elevators, but Tiffany had dashed his hopes, informing him that Sydney had left for the clinic before dawn. Work always took precedence for her.<\/p>\n
A surge of annoyance coursed through him. \u201cIf that\u2019s all, I\u2019m hanging up,\u201d he declared, frustration bubbling to the surface.<\/p>\n
Raymond was relentless, never missing an opportunity to twist the knife deeper. \u201cStill ignoring you, is she?\u201d he asked, a smirk evident in his voice.<\/p>\n
Julian was on the verge of firing back a retort when Raymond\u2019s gaze shifted, and he abruptly cut the call.<\/p>\n
Within moments, a voice note buzzed through\u2014\u201dI just saw Sydney\u2019s best friend. Wait there. I\u2019ll sacrifice my charm to dig out the truth.\u201d<\/p>\n
Julian couldn\u2019t help but chuckle. \u2018Sacrifice his charm? For whom? And does the girl even care?\u2019 Raymond acted as if he were offering himself up on some grand altar for the sake of a noble cause.<\/p>\n
Tiffany burst into the inpatient wing, her red dress swirling around her as she moved with purpose, the heels of her shoes clicking against the floor. She was headed straight for the elevators, too quick for Raymond to intercept before the doors slid shut behind her.<\/p>\n
Fortunately, the private hospital was far quieter than a bustling public one, especially at this early hour. Raymond quickly checked the floor she had chosen and followed after her.<\/p>\n
At the nurses\u2019 station, the staff greeted him with warm smiles and friendly banter.<\/p>\n
\u201cDr. Hutton, weren\u2019t you supposed to be heading back to the clinic? Did you forget something?\u201d one nurse inquired, her eyes sparkling with curiosity.<\/p>\n
\u201cNo,\u201d he replied, leaning against the counter, his gaze drifting down the hall. \u201cDid a young woman in a red dress just visit someone?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cShe did. She came to see your patient,\u201d the nurse replied, flipping through the logbook before pointing to a specific entry. \u201cHere, Bed 19. Lauren Miller.\u201d<\/p>\n
Lauren had been admitted through the ER at dawn, and he had performed the surgery on her before she was transferred to the ward.<\/p>\n
He nodded his thanks, brow furrowed in thought, and made his way to the room. It was a single, with windows and doors thrown open to catch the breeze.<\/p>\n
Raymond paused at the threshold. Inside, the woman who had never offered him a kind glance sat comfortably, a smile gracing her lips as she peeled an apple. \u201cMs. Miller, Glen called me. Don\u2019t worry. He\u2019s already on the plane back,\u201d she assured, her tone soothing.<\/p>\n
\u2018Glen Linus\u2026\u2019 The name echoed in Raymond\u2019s mind, hitting him like a punch to the gut.<\/p>\n
He turned on his heel and made his way to the smoking area at the far end of the hall, needing to clear his head. He lit up two cigarettes in quick succession, inhaling deeply before he could regain his composure.<\/p>\n
Just as he crushed the last butt beneath his shoe, Tiffany emerged from the ward, gently closing the door behind her. She turned, and before she could react, she collided with him.<\/p>\n
Her eyes flicked over him, calm and composed. She had seen his name on the patient\u2019s chart: [Attending Physician, Dr. Raymond Hutton.]<\/p>\n
Meeting his gaze unwaveringly, she asked in a steady voice, \u201cDr. Hutton, may I inquire about Ms. Miller\u2019s condition? How long will she need to stay?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd what capacity are you asking from? My ex-girlfriend or the patient\u2019s future daughter-in-law?\u201d he snapped, the sharpness in his tone betraying the turmoil brewing inside him.<\/p>\n
As the chapter draws to a close, the emotional landscape for both Julian and Raymond becomes increasingly complex.
