Chapter 2: Blackmail
"Yes I, I thought you would like to talk to me" said Luke once Dr. Oliver answered the phone.
"You're threaten trying to get my medical licenses revoked
"Not unless you take on Noah's case"
"Who the hell do you think you are?" asked Dr. Oliver pissed off
"Well I know who you are. I know the things you've done all the name of healing." said
Luke
"Are you blackmailing me Mr. Snyder"
"I know that the review board would have a field day if they had documented proof of how many times you bent the rules" said Luke down to the point
"What do you want?" asked Reid
"Just examine him and see if he's a good candidate for surgery. My father's jet is waiting at DFW. There's a car waiting outside to take you to the airport" said Luke
"You covered all the basics haven't you?" asked Dr. Oliver with a sexy expression on his face while sitting at his desk.
"And when you get to Oakdale, they'll be a car waiting for you to take you to Memorial Hospital, we'll be waiting" said Luke
"With flowers and candy, I hope"
"See you soon" said Luke with a huge grin planted on his mouth.
Luke hung up.
"That was great" said Damien
"Yeah I just hope it works"
Later on after Luke was done hanging with Damien he made a phone call to Noah but had to leave a message for him about Reid coming to Oakdale after all. When he was done on the phone he's mother appeared.
"Got good news. Just spoke to Dr. Oliver and he's on his way to Oakdale" said Luke to his mother excited. His mother also sounded pleased to hear the news.
"How did this come about after what he said to you earlier."
"Well Damien couched me, told me to make him an offer he couldn't refused" said Luke
"You offered him more money?" asked Lily
"No, I didn't offer him any more money
"You threatened him?" asked Lily
"Don't be upset, I had to do what I had to do for Noah's sake and it worked"
Later on Luke arrived at the hospital waiting for Dr. Oliver.
"Luke Snyder?" asked Reid as he walked into the main part of the hospital
Luke turns around and is caught off guard by how good looking Dr. Oliver is.
"Dr. Oliver, you made it, I can't thank you enough" said Luke with his hand out for a hand shake they briefly shock hands.
"We both know why I'm here , let's not pretend it's a normal consult" said Dr Oliver
"I'm sorry it's just that…."
"You felt like you could blackmail me. I'm curious how much did it cost you to get dirt on me." said Dr. Oliver
"Dr. Oliver, I didn't want to do it this way you see…."
"All I see is the big fat silver spoon in your mouth that I hope you choke on"
Luke was stunned into silence. 'How dare he talk to me like that' thought Luke.
"What makes you think Mr. Mayer is more deserving of my time than any other patient of mine?" asked Dr. Oliver
"He's not but he's the only person I'll ever need to" said Luke serious.
Dr. Oliver licked his lips.
"Well I'm here, thanks to you and your father's jet, where's the patient?" asked Dr. Oliver looking around the wall.
"Noah should be here any minute now" said Luke
"He should be?" asked Dr. Oliver frustrated
"Yeah, I left him a message when I found out you were on your way here" said Luke
"Well I'm booked on the next flight back to Dallas in an hour, it was a displeasure meeting you, Mr. Snyder" said Dr. Oliver rudely and so cold.
Suddenly Noah walked into the room with his walking stick
"Noah, Noah" Luke called out when he saw Noah and walked over to him.
"Dr. Reid Oliver is here and he's mad" whispered Luke to Noah.
"Dr. Oliver" said Noah
"15 minutes" said Dr. Oliver
Dr. Oliver walked over to Noah and grabbed him by the arm and walked in an office. Luke was walking over to the room.
"Stay out" said Dr. Oliver to Luke before slamming the door in his face.
