Nicole got up from the stretcher and went to sit beside Alex.
"I wanna know, am I not interesting?"
Alex shook his head and said, "that's not the case. You seem like a fun person to be around with."
"No, Alex." Nicole shook her head. "I am not… am I not interesting enough to attract you in a physical or emotional manner?"
Alex sighed and looking at Nicole, said, "It's not that you aren't attractive. It's just that I am a married man and nobody else but my wives interest me."
"Hmm? Wives?" Nicole caught onto the word.
'Ah, crap…' Alex thought to himself. 'I can clear this up by saying I meant wife's and not wives, but I am sure it'll land me in trouble in future.'
'This lady is the Director, she'll definitely find out I have multiple wives.'
Feeling it was best to not lie in this situation, Alex answered, "Yes, wives. I have more than one."
"What!?" Nicole got up in shock and said. "Aren't you like twenty-one!?"
Alex nodded. "Does age matter?"
"No, but…" Nicole sat back down hearing that. "…how did you end up finding your wives at such a young age?"
Alex shrugged. "Childhood friends, med school, and so on…"
"And they don't mind being with you?" Nicole was really surprised.
Alex shook his head. "They love me, I love them back, and that's about it. They don't hate each other, rather, they treat each other like sisters. It's fun to watch them bond."
ραndαsnοvεl.cοm A smile crept on Alex's face as he remembered Melissa and Nix's interactions. It was indeed really cute.
Nicole was flabbergasted, completely shook and also confused.
This successful young doctor indulged in polygamy? This was something really surprising.
Nicole had done a background check on Alex and found out that he was really amazing.
He excelled in his studies in his med school, was at the top of his class, and also made a lot of money in just a few months, eventually becoming a multimillionaire.
From making Frank's Pizzeria blow up to profiting from stocks and real-estate and then performing a successful surge on a patient who had no chance of surviving…
He was a genius and made Nicole really interested in him.
However, she had never realized that such a genius would have such peculiar romantic interests.
"So… what you were saying before, I am attractive but not attractive to you?" Nicole asked a different question this time.
Alex nodded. "I may be slightly physically attracted, but in no way is there an emotional connection, Nicole. I hope you do understand."
Nicole's expression turned grave. "You just… friendzoned me…"
Alex flashed an awkward smile. "It's not like that…"
"No, no, it is like that, isn't it? You rejected me and just said you want to be friends with me." Nicole said with her lips twitching.
"Erhm…" Alex felt himself in a tough spot. He didn't think meeting Nicole today would have him indulge in drama.
He already had a fairshare of drama, now there was this too.
"Don't say anything." Nicole answered. Her expression turned sad and she continued, "that day in the burger joint when I first saw you… I just thought you were a young playboy trying to hookup with an older woman."
Nicole then sighed. "I was actually going to let you hookup with me, you know?"
"What?" Alex had no idea such a thing was cooking up inside Nicole's head.
Nicole nodded her head. Clicking her tongue she continued, "You know, I am getting old. I should've been a mother by now, but I haven't even gotten laid, let alone pregnant. When you approached me that day, I could feel that you wanted to flirt with me."
"…and as we all know, there's too many young horny teens everywhere. I thought you were one as well and…"
Nicole's face slightly flushed with embarrassment. Still, she didn't stop and continued,
"…since I found you handsome, I thought that I might as well give you a chance and have you fuck me. That's why I flirted regarding the hotel thing, you know? I thought you were flirting with me, then I flirted back… but who would've thought that you would be a doctor and then who would've thought I would turn out to have cancer."
Nicole's expression turned annoyed.
"I was scared to death knowing about cancer and was in the worst emotional state of my life. Though, you were there for me and I was happy. I enjoyed our moments together, even though it was really short. Anyway…"
Shaking her head and with a sad smile, Nicole said, "It seems I might still not get laid for quite some time. I guess I am past my prime now. Not attractive enough maybe."
Alex shook his head. "No, Nicole. It's not like that. You still look really beautiful and… well… I won't lie to you, I did approach you with an intention to flirt. However, I just wanted to use you for a ride because you know… I lost my phone and there wasn't any way to call a cab without one."
Nicole chuckled hearing that. "Right. You asked me that straightaway with such an innocent face later. Your image of being a fuck boy completely flipped with you saying your friends left you."
Alex smiled. "I mean, it couldn't be helped. I thought hot older ladies liked young innocent boys whom they could corrupt and pamper. Hence I put up a small act."
"Oh? So you found me as a hot attractive older lady?" Nicole caught onto this line.
Alex flashed an awkward smile. It seems he used some wrong terms here.
Trying to de-escalate the situ a bit, Alex replied, "at first glance, yeah, for sure."
"Ohhh." Nicole was surprised now. "So let's say… I didn't have cancer… would our conversation steered to you hooking up with me?"
'Oh, shit… where is this going?' Alex couldn't help but think.
He wanted to let this conversation steer to normalcy but it only ended up taking an even weirder turn.
"I just wanted a ride home…" Alex clarified. "I don't think I would've remembered you after that."
"Really? Didn't I say I was the Director in that conversation? You would forget the Director of the Feds just like that?" Nicole asked with a playful look. "Wouldn't you want to sleep with such a big shot if it was possible?"
Sighing, Alex felt he should put up a stop at this conversation or it would just turn for the worse.
"Nicole, let's not bring up what happened at that time. Let's focus on now. Say… if I find you attractive right now and also hot, what then? It's not like you're going to put yourself so low that you would get together with a man with a harem, right?"
Nicole was dumbfounded hearing that.
"Well…" It was her who got to thinking now.
Silence ensued for a good few seconds between the two.
Nicole cleared her throat then and said, "…I mean… well… even though you've got two wives… it wouldn't hurt me to just hookup with you once. I was ready to have a one night stand that day, so it doesn't matter today either."
Alex raised his eyebrows in surprise. 'This woman…'
For the first time, he came across a person who was actually thirsty.
Previously, he had just found such characters either on skits on social media, or manga or novels.
He didn't think a rational woman would want to fuck a married man and that too just for the sake of getting laid with no emotional sentiments attached.
He didn't understand this life of debauchery and he definitely wasn't ready to indulge in such drama either.
Cheating on his wives… plucking an innocent lady's flower just for a one time pleasure…
He really didn't want to go through all of this.
He would feel really guilty for cheating on his wives if he did that and there was also the fact that he didn't want to give Nicole a bad memory.
People remembered their first times and Nicole was no exception to it.
He didn't want to give unnecessary trauma to a lady as well.
But as Alex thought of these things…
A moral dilemma suddenly popped up in his head.
'Mel mentioned that my other wives are going to appear as random strangers and I won't have it as easy again like I did with her and Nix. Then does that mean…'
