The Main Character's Doctor

Summary

I’m the CEO’s doctor friend.

The very first day I get back from my residency in Germany, his girlfriend points a tear-streaked face at me and wails:

“I thought you were different from all those other alpha-male CEOs, but I can’t believe you sponsored a charity case, too. Are you trying to replace me with her?”

I just stand there, completely baffled.

I look over at my friend, the CEO in question.

“Dude,” I say. “You sponsored me? Where’s the money? Because I sure as hell never saw a dime.”
