Episode 2

Unseen by anyone, Nickolas and Naina exchanged their sacred vows before God. That morning they visited a place of worship, solemnizing their secret wedding.

After leaving the hospital, they didn’t depart together; Naina took a bus while Nickolas used his personal car.

Following their solemn promise, Nickolas immediately invited Naina to his apartment—a place she could now freely enter as his wife, albeit secretly.

Like a dream, Naina had suddenly become the wife of the Chief Executive Officer at the hospital where her mother was being treated.

If word of this clandestine marriage were to leak, it would undoubtedly create chaos, given their vastly different social standings.

However, Naina chose not to dwell on that, for her current focus was her work, curing the doctor of a strange ailment she had never encountered before. And only through this means could she maintain her secret identity as a sex worker, ensuring her mother received extra attention from the hospital.

"Do you use the name Naina at the Club?" Nickolas asked, just as they entered the luxurious apartment. Since he noticed such a stark contrast between the current Naina and the one he'd seen at the Club, it was as though she had two identities.

"No, Doc, I go by Laura at the Club," Naina replied, eliciting a chuckle from Nickolas.

His usually cold and impassive face transformed in an instant, becoming incredibly handsome with a charming smile.

Naina was utterly dazzled by him.

"All right, that means you are Laura now."

"Okay, Doc," Naina responded, shifting into her sultry persona without hesitation, daringly approaching until she was nearly pressed against the doctor's body.

"We should have bought lingerie earlier," Naina whispered, having completely transformed. No longer was she the innocent and naïve Naina, but rather, she had fully become Laura of Paradise Club, leaving Nickolas astounded.

The girl he had seen fighting tirelessly for her mother also possessed a daring, seductive side.

"Wait," Nickolas responded, suddenly feeling awkward himself. For some time, he had felt uncomfortable around women, to the point of being dispassionate. His libido seemed to have flatlined.

"What does the doctor wish for?" Naina asked, her voice coyly sweet.

Which only served to make Nickolas chuckle at his own sensation. Yet he liked this provocative side; he wanted Naina to always tease him.

"I think it's too soon to get to the heart of the matter," said Nickolas.

"Really? I can hardly wait," Naina countered, drawing closer again and even laying her hand on the doctor's chest.

Truly, at that moment, it wasn't Nickolas's heart on the verge of bursting but Naina's. Her hand trembled as it rested on his broad chest.

Being bold with someone so esteemed was not easy, yet she had to be professional. Her trembling hand clutched at Nickolas's white shirt, while her other slid behind to embrace the doctor’s waist.

"The doctor seems underwhelmed; it still feels so insignificant," Naina observed because she could sense what was below due to their proximity, but indeed, Nickolas's passion was extinguished.
