A billionaire disguised himself as a poor janitor in his own newly built hospital to discover…
Toby Adamola, a 35-year-old multimillionaire, was sitting in his luxurious living room, sipping a glass of wine. The magnificent view of the city through his windows didn’t fill him with joy. Despite his wealth and status, his heart remained empty. He lay back and sighed deeply. “Money can’t buy love,” he murmured. For years, he’d dated beautiful women all over the world, but they all wanted the same thing: his money. I didn’t see him as a man, just as a bac.
Last night, my friend from law school and co-founder attorney Chris walked by. Toby opened up to him. His voice was thick with frustration. “Chris, I’ve had enough. I want real love, someone who sees me for who I am, or as my wealth,” Toby said. Chris leaned closer, understanding his pain. “It’s not easy,” Toby said. “But what do you plan to do?” Toby leaned forward, a sad gleam in his eyes. “I’m about to open the biggest hospital in the city. It’s going to be a big hospital, with cutting-edge facilities, highly qualified staff, but I’m not going to be the multi-tasking boss. I’m going to be a cleaner,” Chris raises his eyebrow. “Cleaner, really?”
Yes, I’ll change my name to James. No one will know who I am. I want to see how I’m treated when I’m just an ordinary worker. I want to find someone who respects everyone, regardless of status. This is my chance. Chris laughed, impressed. It’s a great place. But are you sure you can do it? I have to apply for the cleaner position like everyone else, and you’ll take care of the public services that say the owner is out of the country. I want to integrate. Chris. Nobody must know. Chris agreed. This will be interesting. I’ll support you. The day has finally come, thanks.
The hospital was the center of care. Highly qualified doctors, nurses, lab technicians, and accountants were present, all dressed in their finest. Chris, elegantly dressed in a suit, addressed the staff. Ladies and gentlemen, welcome to the celebration of Starite Hospital, the largest in the city. The owner is currently out of the country, but trusts that all of you will carry out your work with dedication and professionalism. This hospital will be under strict management, and the owner expects only the best from each and every one of you.
He personally applauded, proud to be part of such a prestigious hospital. Many of the nurses were talking to each other, already boasting about how lucky they were to work at the city’s largest hospital. Some even looked down on the cleaners who remained silent at the front, including Toby, now known as James, one of the most senior orderlies. Nurse Vivie adjusted her immaculate white uniform and joked: “Imagine working as a cleaner in a hospital like this.”
“There are some people who don’t have ambition,” he told his friend Toby, a simple cleaner. He didn’t react, he had to… remind himself that he was there to find someone, someone who wouldn’t look down on me for my job. Another cleaner, a grumpy old man named Musa, nudged him. “New here?” Toby was approached. “Yeah, I just started today.” “Be careful with these nurses, they are pretending to be the owners of the place,” warned Mssa, her eyes white.
Toby, irritated. Thanks for the advice. As the day progressed, the staff settled into their duties. The doctors discussed their schedules and medical procedures. The nurses gossiped and boasted about their qualifications. And the cleaners, including Toby, began their duties in silence. Nurse Vivie, who had been promoted to head nurse, came out into the corridor and almost collided with Toby, who was scrubbing the floor. “Hey, are you blind?” “Watch where you’re walking!” she snapped, staring at him. Toby apologized quickly, ducking his head.
Sorry, I didn’t see you. Vivie snorted. All cleaners are the same: lazy and clumsy. This hospital deserves better. Toby bit his tongue, remembering his mistake. He didn’t want to reveal his true identity just yet. As he continued to scrub, he noticed other nurses laughing at him from behind. He seemed to enjoy making fun of the cleaners, who felt superior just for wearing white uniforms and having medical titles during lunch break. Toby sat in the staff cafeteria, eating quietly. The cleaners had their own small table in the corner, while the doctors and nurses occupied the larger, more comfortable space. One of the doctors, Dr.
Kelvi strutted past the cleaners. “Is it unbelievable that he’s just letting someone work here now?” she growled at her colleague, loud enough for Toby to hear. Chris, surreptitiously watching from the administration office, couldn’t help but shake his head. “Toby’s really going to see the true morality of the people here,” he smirked. Toby couldn’t help feeling disappointed. Most of the staff were full of pride, looking down on those they considered inferior.
He wondered if there was anyone at the hospital who truly respected people, regardless of their status. At the end of the day, Toby cleaned the hospital entrance doors. His mind was filled with worries: Would he ever find true love, or would he always be surrounded by people who valued only wealth and status? What he knew was that his journey had just begun, and that destiny had a way of revealing unexpected truths. The sun was scorching that afternoon.
Inside the big hospital, the cleaners were busy cleaning floors and walls, but the haters… Oh, no! It wasn’t working. It was standing in groups, talking, laughing, and bragging. A nurse said loudly, “Can you believe it? We’re working at the biggest hospital in the city. Oh, my people are going to hear it today.” Another laughed, even at what was posted on Facebook. Nurse Liada now works at Starlight Hospital. My ex is going to cry. Everyone laughed out loud. Nurse Vivie raised her voice: “Let me help you.”
All of you, no one can work here, we’re the best of the best, those cleaners should know where to go and talk to us anyway, this isn’t their level, the other nurses agreed with her, Toby had now known the fake name, James was mopping the floor in the corridor, far away from them, she heard everything, they were proud of themselves but some of them had manners, they looked at the cleaners as if nothing was wrong, James was cleaning in silence, He didn’t say anything, but the head was shaking its head.
Later that night, after work, James snuck into the small office where Chris, his friend and lawyer, was waiting for him. Chris smiled at the sight. “Oh, my multi-hyphenate cleaner. How was your first full day?” James took off his cap, wiped his face, and sighed. “Chris, I’m sick of these people. These nurses. Some of them are so rude. You should listen to the way they talk to the cleaners like we’re animals.” Chris laughed out loud. “Welcome to a lot of common men, brother. Now you understand how James feels.”
coп my head thought that maybe just maybe I’ll meet someone real but like what i saw today i don’t think true love exists everyone is proud everyone is fake just smile when you think someone is rich Chris looked at him and smiled James or should i say Toby calm down you’re so good and mean maybe you met some bad guys today but who knows tomorrow could be different keep looking James sighed in surprise if i’m even sure i can survive this you know he called me a blind goat today because he almost slipped on the wet floor
Chris bragged between laughs blind goat this story will be sweet when it finally ends just be strong my friend James save me anyway I’ll keep going but if by the end of the week I don’t see any good people in that hospital I’ll just refuse to love and marry someone for money like the rest Chris laughed again let’s see how the day goes next very early in the morning before the others arrived James arrived with his mop and bucket He wanted to arrive early, which gave him peace before the scam began.
As time went on, the same proud nurses worked, clicking their heads in their heels. Nurse Vive came in and shouted, “Where’s the cleaner? This floor is dusty. Does he want the patients to…?” “Fall and die, come out now.” James quickly left and bent down to clean. “Sorry, Mom, I’ll clean it now.” Viviana gasped, “You better be, or I’ll report you to management.” The other nurses came back in. Uпa sυsυrró: “Look at him, he even smells like bleach.” “I could never go out with a man like that in my life.”
But he quickly put it down again. He smiled quietly to himself. “If only I knew who I was.” Later that day, Chris sent James a WhatsApp message. “How was day two?” But he still hoped someone would look at him and smile, not for his money, but for his good heart. In the same lovely city where the biggest hospital had just opened, lived a young woman named Lisa. Lisa was a single mother. Her father, being poor, had overwhelmed her with pain and tears.
They were very poor. Her father sold firewood and old radio parts just to feed Lisa and pay for her studies. Life wasn’t easy, but he made do. Lisa didn’t have a mother. She died as a child, but… Her father did everything he could to make Lisa feel loved. Years later, something terrible happened to Lisa while she was still in nursing school. A man she trusted took advantage of her. He raped her and left her alone.
She cried for weeks. This devastated her, but she didn’t have the strength to. She discovered she was pregnant. Many told her to drop out of school to forget her dreams, but Lisa persisted. “I’ll have my baby, and you’ll still be a nurse,” she said. Her father was by her side. “You’re my daughter, and you’re strong,” he told her. She carried her baby in her arms, went to school with her big belly, and after giving birth to her daughter, she studied. Her classmates made fun of her, but she just stopped studying.
Years passed and she graduated. She didn’t have fancy shoes and rich parents, but she had hope. One night, Lisa came home flying to her mother. “Papa C Starlight Hospital is covered,” she said excitedly. Her father’s doe eyes lit up. “Isn’t that the big hospital we always hear about on the radio? Yes, Dad, I’ll sign up tomorrow.” She gave him a big hug. “God will do it. You’ll get the job tomorrow.” Lisa was wearing her only elegant dress.
She tied her daughter’s hair and fed her. Her neighbor agreed to take care of her. Lisa ran out, walking quickly in a small brown bag, her forehead soaked with odor, but she didn’t stop. By the time she got to the hospital, there was already people. She sat down and gasped. “Please, I’m here for the nursing job.” The receptionist looked up. “Oh, you’re late. The job went out ten minutes ago.” Lisa froze. “What?” he gasped, his eyes wide open.
We’ve already chosen another nurse. I’m sorry. Lisa left. She sat at the hospital entrance and shed tears. No, I wasn’t so hopeful. What did she say to Dad now that I’m late and he’s lost his job? Her sobs caught someone’s attention. Ms. Sassa, the older cleaner who worked with Toby. Now, James, came over slowly. Miss, are you okay? Lisa quickly wiped her eyes. I’ve lost my job. They’ve already given it to someone else. I don’t know what to say to my father.
He thinks he’ll come back with good news. Ms. Ms. looked at her and saw something different. “You look like someone who needs a chance, or pity.” Hmm. Lisa stood up, feeling sorry for herself and said, “I can’t go home like this. I’d take any job in this hospital. I’d rather be a cleaner than go home and watch Dad fall apart.” Ms. Ms. blinked. “Do you want to work as a cleaner?” “Yes, please help me talk to someone.” Lisa walked back into the hospital with firm steps. “Excuse me, Mom, I know the nose job is busy, but I can clean, I can scrub, I can do whatever, just let me work.”
The administrative officer made his decision. You’re a registered nurse, you want to clean floors. Promote Lisa. I need this job. My daughter and my father depend on me. The officer looked at her for a moment and then handed her the form. “It’s complete.” Lisa called for the first time that day. Later that day, James, the multi-millionaire Toby, was scrubbing the back hallway when he saw Lisa in the cleaning uniform. She looked worried, bent down, and began scrubbing with energy and dedication.
She didn’t complain, she didn’t seem embarrassed. James watched from a distance; something in her spirit caught his attention. Musa approached James and said, “That girl is a nurse, she missed her job.” They asked her to work as a cleaner, but she said she’d rather clean than go home without a job. That girl was shot because of her looks. James bristled slightly. “What? Are you interested?” Musa laughed. “This hospital is full of drama. Every day there’s a story.” James stared at Lisa.
I hadn’t spoken to her yet, but something in my head told me, “Keep watching her.” That night, Lisa returned home. Her daughter, Blessing, ran to hug her. “Mom, she’s back.” “Yes, my love.” Lisa picked her up with a sad smile. Mom got a job, and I started working right away. Her father shouted from his wooden chair, “I told you, God makes ways.” Lisa hugged him. Tears of relief were in her eyes. It wasn’t what she’d expected, but it was the beginning.
Her father took the lead. Work doesn’t matter, it’s the heart that matters. Lisa wiped her tears and came closer. At least it’s something. I can’t stay without a job. I know this isn’t the rhinoplasty I wanted, but who knows, maybe one day, if there’s a spot, I can apply for it. In a moment I’ll be back in the hospital. I’ll be on the lookout for any possibility. Her father, excited and affirmative, yes, my daughter, step by step, God is watching. Lisa looked at her daughter and, excited, for now, we give thanks.
God is better than nothing and with that they all sat down together to eat the little food they had hoping in their hearts it was Lisa’s second day working as a cleaner at Starlight Hospital she tied her bandana tight and bent down to scrub the floor at the nurses’ station her back hurt but she didn’t complain she was happy to have something to do to save a little money for her daughter and her father out of regret loud voices came down the hall nurse Vivie entered with two other proud nurses
Nurse Stella and Nurse Becky were chewing gum, laughing, and drinking glasses of cold juice. Nurse Becky stopped and stared. “Wait, isn’t that the girl you saw doing the job?” “Good job?” Nurse Vivie asked. She turned around. “Uh, I think it’s Nurse Stella.” She yelled, “Hey, you went in for your nose job, and now you’re wearing a mop and you’re the one.” “Oh, life isn’t fair!” she boasted, laughing. Cleaner Lisa Vivie said, “You should have stayed home if you knew you weren’t qualified.” Look, now you want a nose job.
and you finished mopping the girl doesn’t have ambition Stella added everything to the Starite hospital and you think we’ll just hire anyone please go and clean the bathroom Joah Lisa replied rubbing her eyes she was hot but tears didn’t fall after making fun of her he laughed at her and walked away shaking his hips with pride both of them then James the multimillionaire Toby in disguise came in as Mssa had heard and seen everything Mssa hissed these nurses were too proud this day will fall from that pedestal James walked over to Lisa are you okay? Lisa looked up and drew a small picture
She smiles. I’m fine. It’s not bad. I’ve seen worse. James and Moose sat next to her on the toilet. Lisa dropped her mop and sat down too, breathing heavily. My father saw me. He said in a low voice, “I know what hunger is. I know what embarrassment feels like. When I was pregnant in school, people laughed at me. My classmates said, “I’ll never graduate, but I did it.” So the nurse’s words…”
“It doesn’t affect me.” Ms.a moves slowly. “You’re a strong woman, I respect you.” James, irritated. “You don’t have to prove anything to them. What you’re doing now… raising your child… working hard… that’s bravery.” Just then he heard Lisa’s phone. She answered quickly. “Hello.” A concerned voice came from the other end. It was… Your neighbor Lisa, go quickly, your daughter isn’t okay, she’s been throwing up, I don’t know what to do again.” Lisa jumped. Oh, пo. James stood up immediately.
What happened? Lisa’s voice trembled. She’s my daughter, she’s sick. She looked James in the eye and said, “Please, James, I need your help. I want to leave quickly. If those rude nurses ask for me, please, please cover me.” James joined in. “Go on, don’t worry, I’ll take care of it.” Lisa added, “We’ll let them know at lunchtime. Don’t panic, go check on your daughter.” Lisa grabbed her bag and ran out the door. James stood there watching her. His heart sank.
He didn’t know what it was, but something about Lisa’s strength moved him. She wasn’t like the others. She had anger, she had fire, she had pain, and she had love. James looked at Ms. Sa and said sadly, “Now I understand why some people shine, even in hardship.” Lisa ran into her little room, exhausted and panting. Her five-year-old daughter, Blessing, lay weak on the mat, her lips dry, her body burning like fire. “Mommy Blessing,” Lisa whispered weakly. “Lisa quickly picked her up; tears were already running down her cheeks. She’s okay, my baby, Mommy.”
She’s here. He handed Blessing a hug, hugged her, and ran back to Starlight Hospital. Lisa entered the hospital with Blessing in her arms. Her daughter was breathing heavily. She ran to the infirmary. “Please help me. My daughter is sick, she needs an injection, she has a fever and is vomiting.” Nurse Vivie looked up. Her lips twisted, and Lisa pleaded, “Please, I work here, I’m a cleaner, just help me treat her.” Nurse Stella rolled her eyes.
Have you paid? Lisa shook her head. No, no, I don’t have any money now, but I’ll pay soon. Vive stood up, her voice high, and then left. This is Starlight Hospital, a people’s charity. We treat people here for free, but it’s just a girl. Lisa begged, crying. Becky hissed loudly. Go to the public hospital line. This one’s for rich people. Lisa was shocked and heartbroken, hugging her weak daughter tightly. Just then, Moose and James Toby arrived in disguise. They saw the scene. Moose’s eyes widened. What’s going on here?
Lisa explained everything through tears. James took the lead. She works here. Can’t you treat the girl first and pay the bill later? Vive became abruptly cleaner. James, don’t talk where serious people talk. James frowned. What happened to all of you? The girl is sick. Why can’t you treat her? Stella laughed. Since when did the cleaners start giving orders around here? You mop pushers now want to tell us how to do our job. James stood at attention. I don’t need to be a doctor to know this is evil. Becky snapped, “So you pay for your treatment? Ogre cleaner or keep quiet.” Musa stepped forward angrily. “How can you be so heartless?”
Just because I’m a cleaner, does that mean my daughter should die? “Hurrah!” hissed Musa. “If you’ve been cleaning all your life, what have you achieved? Do you want to teach us goodness? Now please move!” shouted Musa. “Even with my mop, I have more heart than all of you with your stethoscopes.” Lisa was there crying, rocking her daughter gently. Repeatedly, a soft but firm voice came from behind. “Excuse me, what’s happening here?” Everyone turned around. It was Dr. William, a kind-hearted doctor known for minding his own business but doing his job well.
He looked at Lisa and her daughter. “It’s burning.” He said, “Quick, bring her to my office, I’ll see her.” Vive made way to the front, but he hadn’t paid, sir. Dr. William raised his hand. “And she works here? No?” “Yes, but Becky tried to speak. I said, “Bring her in now.” Lisa’s eyes widened. “Thank you, sir, thank you.” William gave her a faint smile. “Okay, let’s save the girl first.” James looked at William and approached respectfully.
The nurses whistled and left, refusing. “So, it’s the cleaning crew today,” Becky murmured softly from inside Dr. Williams’s office. Lisa sat next to the hospital bed, holding Blessing’s hand as Dr. Williams administered the medication and injection. James stood by the door, watching in silence. After the treatment, Blessing’s breathing improved. He opened his eyes slowly and whispered, “Mommy.” Lisa kissed his hand. “You’re okay, my baby.”
Dr. Williams smiled at me. “She’ll be fine, just let her rest.” Lisa turned to him with grateful eyes. “Thank you so much, I’ll forget.” “Of course,” he replied. “You see, everyone here has a proud heart. Some of us still remember why we became doctors.” Outside the room, James sat alone, lost in his sorrow. He glanced toward the infirmary. So much pride, so much malice! Lυego looked at Lisa through the veпtaпal, hugging his daughter and sobbing his prayers, but also so much strength, so much love.
James smiled slowly, and at that moment something in his heart touched him. He still wasn’t sure what it was, but he knew Lisa was different. Later that day, Nurse Vivie, Becky, and Stella were having a good time, drinking juice and eating Puffpuff. Their faces were full of pride, as always. Vivie crossed her legs and snorted. Can you imagine if Dr. William had turned Starlight Hospital into a center of efficiency? Stella acted quickly. Yes. Treated that girl to clean for Free Harbor.
Is this a clinic or a home for orphaned babies? Becky dropped her cup and hissed, “Someday the owner of this hospital will show up, and guess what? Yeah, I’ll personally inform Dr. William. He’s doing charity work in someone else’s hospital like it’s his dad complex.” Everyone laughed. “I’ll tell the owner that someone’s turning this huge hospital into a mess,” Viviana added, her mouth twisting. “Don’t worry.” Becky replied that the day would come, the owner would see and everyone would be amazed. Meanwhile, in Chris’s office, James,
Who really was Toby, walked into his friend Chris’s office, shaking his head and laughing bitterly. Chris looked up from his laptop. Oh, my multi-purpose cleaner’s back. What’s new? Toby walked over to the chair and sat down heavily. Chris, you won’t believe what I see in this hospital. Chris listened. What I still can’t believe is that management would hire these kinds of evil, heartless nurses. If you see how they treat people, I’m shocked. Yes respect and compassion. Chris.
He laughed, but everyone was qualified for the interview and had good titles. Toby shook his head. You’re not nurses, you’re messed up. Chris laughed harder. So, have you met any good people yet, or are you all evil? Toby’s face softened with regret. He looked down for a moment and smiled. “Actually, yes, there is one person. Her name is Lisa.” Chris raised an eyebrow. “Lisa?” “Yes,” Toby replied. Viпo to apply for υп bυeп job, but arrived late.
She had already given the job to someone else. She sat at the hospital entrance and cried. She said she couldn’t go home without work because her daughter and father depended on her. Chris sat up, listening intently. Toby cried. She begged the administration office to let her work as a cleaner. She said she’d rather clean than stay at home. They gave her the job. She started straight away. She didn’t complain. She didn’t refuse. Chris’s face changed completely.
Toby’s voice lowered. Then her daughter, Blessing, got sick. Lisa took her to the hospital. The same nurses attacked her, made fun of her, and started treating the girl because she hadn’t paid. Chris frowned. What? Toby said, “I felt so helpless, so angry. But then Dr. Williams showed up. That man didn’t ask any questions. He told Lisa to bring her daughter. He waited for her without delay. Chris moved forward slowly. That’s Dr. Williams.”
I know him. He’s a pediatrician and a children’s doctor. He’s very kind. He’s not like the others. Toby was irritating. Once again, I thank God I’m still a doctor at my hospital. Chris lay back, and, Lisa, what did you think of her? Toby paused, then said in a low voice, “Lisa is different; she doesn’t show pride like the others. She’s been in pain, but she’s still kind. She’s strong, but she’s not fast. You can feel her pain, but you can also see her courage.” Chris crossed his arms and smiled.
Is my friend falling in love with the cleaner? Toby laughed. No, oh, I’m just looking. Chris was sufficiently amazed. Observation leads to admiration, then to attention, then to affection. Toby pointed at me. If you say one more word, I’ll transfer you to the bathroom so I can make fun of you. They both laughed, then Chris leaned forward seriously, but Toby, let’s not forget your pleasure, you would like to find someone who loves you. If you want to know you’re rich, someone who sees you, or your wallet. James moved forward slowly. Yes, Lisa was in the bathroom.
Cleaned seated treated next to Bпdiciedo to his daughter who was fast asleep and had a bath after the treatment her small chest was rising and falling save me now for more rapid breathing or more burning fever Lisa broke down in prayer thank you God please bless Dr. William for me just then James knocked and came in Lisa stood up quickly oh James thanks for what you and Papa Mnse did I don’t know what I would have done James it’s amazing how he is now he’s fast asleep you’re better off strong woman Lisa forget that Lisa soпrieпdo save me I just want to do the best for her
and here it is for my father james stood up and sat by his side completely you’ve done well don’t let the noise of proud people make you forget your worth lisa looked at him with watery eyes you speak like someone who knows pain james weakly weak let’s just say i’ve seen the way and the way you’re not always kind they both sat in silence for a while no words just understanding two days later lisa’s daughter blessig was recovered her fever was gone the girl was now running around her small room, laughed and played with her doll.
Lisa looked at her and smiled. God, thank you. I’ll never forget how James and Ms.a. supported me that morning. Lisa woke up early and made a small pot of jolaf rice and fried plantain. It wasn’t much, but it was made with love. She carefully prepared it in three bowls: one for James, one for Ms.a, and one for Dr. William. But Dr. William had already left to do his rounds at the hospital, so she saved his for that afternoon.
Mser and James were sitting behind the hospital building, resting after cleaning the long hallway. Lisa approached with a shy smile and brought them food. “Good afternoon, friends,” she greeted them sweetly. James was irritated. Ah, Lisa, the strong woman. Mser laughed between diets. I see your face as if someone is hiding something. Lisa laughed. No, ah, I just brought you a small meal. It’s not funny, but it’s my way of thanking you for being good to me, for helping me, for supporting me and my daughter.
They handed out their plates. “I know it’s small,” he added, “but please clean it.” James opened his plate and smelled it. “Huh?” Jolaf rice with banana. Lisa, you made my day. Musa was already working hard. It’s no small feat. It’s celebratory food. They laughed and ate happily. After they ate, Lisa and James continued talking as Musa went back inside. Lisa looked at James. “You’ve been very kind to me, James, but tell me who you really are. I mean, why did you choose to be a cleaner?”
James looked at her, his face serious but thoughtful. Well, things haven’t been easy for me. I searched. I searched everywhere for work, but I didn’t find anything, contacts, help. So I decided to work as a cleaner to help out. I couldn’t stay home without doing anything. Lisa is moving forward slowly. Did you graduate? James replied, “Yes.” Lisa blinked. “So don’t stop applying for places. Don’t refuse your dream just because life is hard.” She gently placed her hand on his shoulder. “I’m a registered nurse, but I sweep hospital floors. Why?”
James looked at her wordlessly for a moment. Her water had just broken. People rushed to check on her. The pregnant woman was alone, crying in pain. Her husband, gripped by panic, was shaking like a leaf. “Nurse Vive and Stella were there, but instead of helping, they stayed put.” “We don’t have room for the birth now,” Vive said coldly. “Go to the delivery room.” “But you can’t walk,” her husband shouted. Lisa, hearing the commotion, dropped the mop and ran forward.
“She’s in labor,” Lisa cried. “We don’t have time to move her! We have to help her!” Viviana’s eyes went white. “Who called you, doctor?” Lisa ignored her. She quickly asked for drops and warm water. She knelt next to the woman and began to gasp for air. “Ma’am, I pushed slowly. That’s it again. She’s okay.” After a while, the baby came out, crying loudly and vigorously. The watching people clapped in amazement and joy. Even some nurses were paralyzed.
At that moment, Dr. Kema, an experienced doctor, came in and saw what had happened. “Who did this?” he asked hurriedly. “Me, sir,” Lisa replied, still holding the baby. Dr. Kema was stunned. “Would you be kind?” Lisa wiped the sweat from her face. “Yes, sir, I’m a nurse, but don’t treat me as one. I work here as a cleaner.” Kema looked at the other nurses in disappointment, then turned to Lisa with respect. “You have golden hands and a helpful heart, thank you.”
Lisa’s voice echoed with tears in her eyes. James stood back, watching everything, and for the first time, he felt proud not only of Lisa, but also of his decision to come back later that day. Lisa had just finished helping the mother and cleaning up when her husband approached with tears in his eyes. “Ma’am, thank you, thank you so much for saving my wife.” “And to our baby,” he said, kneeling beside Lisa in the aisle.
Lisa was stunned. “Please stand up. Don’t kneel in front of me. I just did what I had to do.” His wife, now holding her newborn baby, also came over and hugged her lovingly. “I don’t know what would have happened if you hadn’t been there,” she said, her voice shaking. “Those nurses came over. You, the one called a cleaner, were the one acting like a real nurse. God bless you.” Some nearby patients applauded.
A cleaning lady even whistled loudly. James, who had been watching silently from the sidelines, smiled to himself. “I was right, though. This girl had an incredible body.” The news spread like wildfire by nightfall. Almost every ward in the hospital had heard the story, even the doctors’ lounge. People were saying, “Did you hear that one of the cleaning ladies delivered her baby in the hallway? I heard she’s a real nurse, but not the co-worker?” “Why didn’t the other nurses help?”
Meanwhile, in the infirmary, nurses Vivie, Stella, and Becky were sitting with their cheeks puffed out and their arms crossed. Becky hissed all that noise at her, so she pointed at the baby, and Vivie laughed. “Abe, didn’t she fly to the wall? We bring babies in here every day,” Stella added with her sharp tongue. “She’s just looking for attention, so management will feel sorry for her and recognize her very soon.”
Everyone burst out laughing, pretending they didn’t care, but inside they were shocked. I’ll remind her that she’s still a cleaner. The next morning, Lisa arrived early, as always, dressed in cleaning uniform. She greeted everyone politely and walked straight ahead. Blessing, who was playing at the corner with a coloring book, James and Ms.a. were already seated near the entrance. Ms.a. came out with the hand. Ah, another midwife. Lisa laughed. Please, let me. Ah, just soy cleanser.
Remember? James was irritated. Cleaner for a shape. Nose for a heart. Lisa looked at them and said, “Actually, I was just doing the right thing. That woman was hurting, nobody was helping her.” Lisa shook her head. “The world needs more people like you.” Lisa was suspicious. But now I… I could hear people saying, “I just did it to show off, because I want management to understand me.” James bowed. “Let them talk.” People always talk. The important thing is that you did the right thing. Lisa looked at him for a while.
Thanks, James. You always know what to say. He smiled slightly. Maybe I’ve been here longer than you think. They both laughed upstairs, in the administration office. Dr. Kema knocked and came in. Chris’s office. Chris looked up. “Dr. Kema, it’s good to see you. I need to talk to you about something, doctor.” Chris sat up. “Come in, there’s a girl who works here as a cleaner. Her name is Lisa, but sir, she’s a registered nurse. Yesterday I was waiting in the hallway while other nurses watched.”
“The patient and the baby are fine thanks to her.” Chris raised his eyebrows. “She’s smart, resourceful, and knows what she’s doing. Seriously, she deserves better than a mop.” Chris moved forward slowly and listened. “Thank you, Doctor. I’ll look into it.” As Dr. Kema left Chris’s office, the door swung open. James walked in. Chris looked up and smiled. “Oh, what a time!” James walked over and sat down. “What happened?” Chris leaned forward and lowered his voice.
It was Dr. Kemap. He’d come to talk about Lisa. James’s face lit up with interest. “What did he say?” Chris replied. “He said she deserves more than a mop.” “She walked down the hall, everyone was staring at her, but she acted.” He said, “She’s clever, intelligent, and shapely.” James ambled forward. “You’re right, I saw it all with my own eyes.” Chris looked at him with a look of concern. “So what do you want to do about it?” James paused, then spoke in a low voice. Time for Chris to blink. It’s time for what James dreamed. It’s time to reveal.
Who am I really? Chris looked in shock and serious yes James said I’ve seen enough I’ve seen the proud, the lazy, the evil and I’ve seen the bad especially Lisa Chris crossed his arms then how do you want to do it? James stood up and looked out the window and again I want you to say that the owner of the hospital has finally returned to the country and will soon be visiting the hospital Chris say loudly I see so you want to be sure first all the departments are in perfect condition at the nurses station the news came like a thunder Viviana dropped her cup wait for the owner Becky yelled what?
How should I get my hair done? Stella stared at her phone. I need eyelashes before I get here. He must be noticing me. Becky intervened. I’m going to buy a wig tonight. Long, curly hair. That man must think we’re from around here. Vive, she adjusted her uniform. From now on, no one should be the boss. We have to look serious. Beautiful and hardworking. Everyone started acting busy. She walked quickly, spoke in a low voice, and pretended to be preoccupied with her duties outside the hospital door.
Lisa and Mssa stood under the small mago tree near the gate, chatting and enjoying the fresh air. The afternoon breeze caressed Lisa. The sun was too strong today. Mssa laughed. “This son wants to roast me like a peanut.” They both smiled. Right then, James approached with a water bottle. He looked at them calmly. “Has she heard?” Lisa and Mssa turned around. “What did you hear?” Mssa asked. James looked at them both. “The hospital owner is coming back for a visit soon.”
Ms. ascended. “Great, about time.” We’ll see him face to face soon. Lisa didn’t say anything at first, then looked up and said, “I just hope, I just hope he’s kind.” James turned to her. “Why did you say that?” Lisa looked down for a second and then said, “Because some rich people don’t care. They build hospitals, but they don’t know what goes on inside. I just hope this one cares and runs this hospital with wisdom and love.”
They promoted Ms. He was right. Many people only care about money. James was speechless for a moment. He looked at Lisa, at her honest eyes, and at Ms. Ms., who had always spoken to him from the heart. He didn’t say anything, he was just discreet, but something in his mouth stirred. He had no idea he was talking to the very person who worried him, but instead of feeling shocked, James felt the warmth in his chest. He hadn’t been wrong, but he promised himself that it wouldn’t be like that, that it would be different, that he would show Lisa that she was completely wrong.
It had been three full days. Three days, and James hadn’t shown up for work. No one had seen him. No one knew anything about him. Lisa was standing near the staff locker room, wiping her hands with her apron. Her face was tense with worry. She looked around again, hoping to see that familiar, friendly smile walking down the hall, but there was no sign of him. She turned to Ms.a., who was tidying up with a mop nearby. “Ms.a., have you heard from James?”
Did he tell you he’s not going to work? Lisa nodded sluggishly. No, not a word. I’ve been worried too. He didn’t say anything to me, and we don’t even have his phone number. Lisa sighed deeply. Who knows if he’s okay? How can someone just disappear like that without telling anyone? She lowered her voice, like she was all right. What if those rude nurses sent him to management? I could give him his salary or even fire him, and if he wanted to, he’d ask us to cover it. Musa frowned. That’s strange. That guy hadn’t been in work, maybe something’s up.
What’s wrong with him? Lisa gets up quickly; this is serious. Three days is too long. We need to notify management before anyone else does. Just as they were talking, Nurse Vivie saw him marching toward them. Her high heels were clacking loudly. Her face was firm. “Where’s your friend James?” she asked sharply, crossing her arms. Lisa answered quickly. She wasn’t feeling well. She told management that she had excused herself. Viviana looked at him with narrowed eyes. I hope so, because the owner of this hospital could arrive any day, and this is the third day James has been missing.
She pointed. “You’d better call him, tell him to come back to work tomorrow, or I might lose him.” Lisa felt weak. “Okay, Mom, I’ll do it.” Vivia hissed and walked away. Lisa turned to Ms. Her concern was now greater than before. Ms.: “I think I should go to the office myself before that woman causes trouble. Call Ms. Go, please. Before you write your long complaint, say something to protect him.” Call Lisa. I was thinking the same thing.
Moose pointed toward the main building. Go straight to the top floor. That’s where the administration offices are. Ask for Mr. Chris. He handles most of the staff matters. Lisa got up and left. Chris’s office. Later that day, Lisa knocked softly on the door. “Come in,” Chris called out. He came in with his hands clasped across his eyes, a little unhelpful. “Good afternoon, sir.” Chris looked up. “Yes, how can I help you? My name is Lisa, and I’m one of the cleaners at this hospital.”
“I came to talk about my colleague James.” Chris leaned forward, interested. “So he hasn’t been back to work for three days and we have no way of contacting him. I don’t know if he’s sick or something happened to him, but he just missed work. He’s a good man. Please, sir, don’t dock his pay. I really think something’s wrong.” Chris stared at her for two seconds. He remained silent, watching her face. Lisa added in a low voice, “If you know anyone who can take care of him, please do.”
Chris moves forward slowly. “Thanks, Lisa. I can hear you. Don’t worry, I’ll look into it.” Lisa looks relieved. “Thanks, sir.” She turned and walked out. Chris leaned back in his seat, still heavy. Then he said to himself, “Toby is lucky to find someone like her.” Later that night, at Toby’s house, Chris got out of his black Jeep and knocked on the huge wooden gate. Toby opened the door himself. He was wearing a simple shirt and sweatpants.
“Chris, what’s wrong?” Chris laughed between his teeth. “I came to visit my multi-hyphenate cleaner.” Toby laughed. “I needed a few days to clear my head, I’ve been so worried.” Chris walked in and sat up. “Oh, while you were thinking, someone’s been really worried about you.” Toby raised an eyebrow. Chris looked slowly. Lisa. Toby blinked. Lisa. “Yeah, she came to my office today.” She said you’ve been away from work for three days. That he doesn’t have your number, but that he thinks something’s wrong, he begged me not to take off your pay. Toby sat down sluggishly. Chris added. He said: “You’re a good man.”
And that she’s sure you wouldn’t disappear if she caused anything.” Toby looked away, his heart beating a little faster. He looked down, visibly. From the expression on his face, Chris said, “That girl cares a lot about you, it shows in her face, in her voice, that affection that can’t be seen.” Toby moves forward slowly, without stopping laughing. “I’ll see her soon.” The great day had arrived after weeks of pretending to hide, watch, and wait.
Toby Adamola, the real owner of Starlight Hospital, was finally ready to show the world what he was really like. The hospital was busy that morning. The nurses were dressed in crisp, anticipation bright. The doctors were lined up. The staff members were shouting, “The owner is coming home today. I hear he’s young and very rich. I just hope he doesn’t fire anyone.” Lisa was standing in the back of the building, silently dusting the windows. She had no idea what was going on inside.
She hadn’t seen James in days, and it made her heart sad. Why was he like this? she thought. In the hospital lobby, the elevator opened. Everyone turned around. A tall, handsome man walked out, dressed in a smart black suit and sunglasses. Behind him stood Chris, beaming with pride. Gossip was in the air. Wait, is that him? I know that face is James. Moose’s eyes went wide. No, no, no, no, that’s not possible.
Toby slowly took off his glasses. He walked calmly and helpfully through the crowd. Nurses Vivie, Stella, and Becky froze, their mouths open as if they’d seen a ghost. Vivie gasped, “James is Toby Edimola.” One nurse nearly fainted. Musa dropped the mop she’d been holding. Her mouth was trembling. “I’ve been working like a mop and I didn’t know.” Toby turned and smiled at her pleasantly. “Thank you for being aesthetic.” Mυsa, to the fпdo. Lisa turned around when she heard her man.
Lisa looked up and dropped the rag that was holding her hand. Her heart sank. “James,” she said softly. He walked toward her. “No, James,” he said softly. “My real name is Toby Edimola. I own this hospital.” Lisa took a step back. “No, no, you didn’t.” Toby leaned closer. “Please, let me explain.” Tears filled her eyes. “Explain what? You tricked me, made me trust you while hiding the real you?” Toby’s voice broke.
I just wanted someone to love me for who I am, not for my money. The proof was real. I was myself with you, every word, every moment. Lisa wiped her face. I don’t know who you are anymore. She pushed him away, she smiled. Stella walked away from the crowd. Becky said in shock. Chris walked slowly over to Toby, who stood staring where Lisa disappeared. Chris put his hand on her shoulder. He let her go. Toby is hurt, but he’ll be fine, he just needs time. Toby’s eyes were red. He didn’t say a word.
everything money could buy but now it felt like he had lost the only thing his heart had ever found, the hospital was completely silent, Lisa had walked away in tears, Toby the multi-millionaire and secret master was standing like a statue, his heart broken in front of all the staff but that was not the only surprise of the day, those who were not doctors, the cleaners and the administration workers now knew the truth, James the cleaner was Toby Adamola, the real boss who had seen the nurses’ station, nurse Vivie was sitting in the chair
Pale as if she’d just seen a ghost, she clutched her hand to her chest. My God, we made fun of him, we insulted him, we chased him with mops and water cans. Nurse Becky was all over the place. I insulted him. I told him he smelled like bleach. I told him it was just cleaner. Nurse Stella covered her face. She heard us laughing at Lisa. She saw us ignoring her sick daughter. Vivie looked at them. Her voice was shaking. “We’re broken up.” That’s the multimillionaire, and we treat him like garbage.
Becky cried. She even scrubbed the floor while we rushed to cover him. What bothered him? I’m sure she’ll forgive us. Stella added: ‘In the doctors’ lounge, some people were also stunned. Dr. Bep, who once shouted at James because the floor was wet, was sore. It was him, and I told him to look at his head, or his back.’ Another doctor gasped: ‘He’s been watching us this whole time.’ Dr. William, who cared for Lisa’s daughter, remained silent.
She wasn’t surprised; she was proud because she’d done the right thing like no one else would. Two hours later, at the hospital, Chris ushered the front office in and spoke loudly: “All staff are reporting to the main ward. The owner, Mr. Toby Edola, would like to address you all. Everyone here. All the doctors.” Nurses, cleaners, technicians, even the kitchen staff, stood in rows, heads bowed, fear etched on their faces. Toby entered sluggishly, now in elegant traditional attire. His eyes scanned every face. No smiles, no jokes, silence. He stood at the front and spoke in a deep, trembling voice.
When I decided to open this hospital, I wanted a place where every life mattered, rich or poor, big or small, cleaner. But what I saw broke my heart. Some of you nurses and doctors wore pride as your badge; you mocked the people you saw. Toby said, “The purpose of this hospital is not to wear white coats and walk with pride; it’s to save lives, help the weak, and care for the sick.” If your heart is in this job, you have nothing to do here. Some nurses are doctors.
William acted like a real doctor, treating children not for money but out of duty. He was promoted to senior pediatric co-physician of this hospital. Everyone applauded. Dr. William gave a silent bow. Dr. Kema, you defended not just your patient but your colleague. You made me praise Lisa’s work. I’m proud of you; you’ll now lead the ER. More applause. Ms. Toby looked at the old cleaner with soft eyes. You’ve earned my deepest respect. You spoke when others were involved. You saw yourself as the weak. You have served enough from today and you are promoted.
To the staff welfare supervisor, you’ll never touch the mop again. Tears streamed down Moose’s cheeks. Thank you sir, thank you, and finally, Lisa. Everyone turned around. Toby looked at the empty space where Lisa used to stand and cleared his throat. Lisa came here hoping to be the ice pack, she was late but didn’t leave instead she grabbed the mop and however when there were lives in play she acted as the trained nurse who attended the delivery and the hallway if you please and if you help her her voice trembled slightly from today Lisa is the head nurse of
Starlight Hospital the crowd cheered some applauded embarrassed some with joy but Lisa was not there Toby looked at the crowd I don’t want this to be a lesson you judge people by what they wear or where they work because that cleaner next to you today could be your tomorrow this hospital will change from today onwards we will walk with pride yes with pride but on purpose if you can show kindness to the smallest among us you are worthy of Sar the uniform of this hospital is the one who lives, boasts between tears in the back I’m sure he’ll say goodbye to me I was the worst Stella smiled “let’s beg him.”
Becky shook her head. “After everything we said to Lisa, after everything we did to James, I don’t think I forgive you.” While Toby was still there, he looked around, but his heart wasn’t at peace. He had said what he had to say. He had done what he had to do, but Lisa, the only person he wanted to see, was gone. He looked out the window with a heavy heart. “Where are you, Lisa?” Two days later, Lisa was home, in bed.
She lay on her small mattress, her eyes swollen from crying. She hadn’t eaten. Her daughter, Blessing, sat snugly beside her, holding her mother’s hand. Her father, worried, paced the small room. Suddenly, her neighbor rushed in with his phone in her hand. “Lisa, Lisa, you’re on the news. Go watch it.” Lisa sat up slowly. Her body was still weak. The television volume was turned up high. And there she was. In the dramatic turn of events at Starlight Hospital, the true identity of the hospital’s owner, Mr.
Toby Adamola, who had been working undercover as a cleaner for several weeks, promoted several people to his official address, including a young woman named Lisa, who had been mocked by the staff at the time. Lisa had become the head nurse at the hospital. Lisa exclaimed, covering her mouth with her hand, “Head nurse.” Her father jumped for joy. “My child, you did it, finally you did it.” Tears streamed down his cheeks, not from pain this time, but from joy and surprise. Toby couldn’t wait any longer. He turned to Chris, who was in the office.
Chris, get me Lisa’s employment form. I need to know where she’s staying. I’m going to see her now. Chris, knowing, was waiting for this moment. A few moments later, Toby drove his white truck straight to Lisa’s house. He got out and ran inside. The small room filled with silence as he entered. Lisa looked up slowly; she was unconscious, but her eyes were wide with surprise. Toby, surprised, walked straight over to her, bent down, and carefully picked her up in his arms. Sorry, I shouldn’t have expected that.
He turned to his father. “Lord, please let me take you and Blessing with us. I’ll make sure he gets the proper care.” Lisa’s father couldn’t believe his eyes. My God, is this really Toby’s house? The medics arrived quickly. Lisa was placed in a clean, white room with soft sheets and relaxing music. Blessing and her grandfather also had their own rooms. The nurses cared for them with care. After a few days, Lisa regained her strength.
His face returned to normal and his smile returned. Toby approached his bed and sat down gently. Lisa began sweetly, “I never meant to hurt you, I just wanted to find someone real, someone like you. I hid my identity, but my love was fake.” Lisa looked at him, then at her daughter lying on the couch with her father sitting there approvingly. She took a deep breath and said, “Toby, I forgive you.” Toby, visibly relieved, hugged her tightly. “Thank you, thank you very much.”
Weeks later, Lisa started working as the head nurse at Starlight Hospital. Lisa carried herself with pride and carried herself with determination. The staff who had once mocked her now greeted her with respect. Nurses Vivie, Becky, and Stella arrived at her office with their heads bowed. “Lisa, please,” Vivie began. “We understand everything. Please forgive us.” Lisa stood up and said sweetly, “I forgive you, but let this be a lesson to you: don’t look down on anyone.”
Assitant with tears in his eyes. A month later, Toby invited the entire staff and media into the large room inside the hospital for a special service. He ushered the crowd in with a smile and said, “Today I want to make the most important decision of my life.” He turned to Lisa and took her hand in front of everyone else. “I want to ask you to marry me.” Gossip filled the room. Lisa sniffed with tears in her eyes.
Yes, Toby, I will. The room erupted with applause and joy. Two months later, they were married in a beautiful garden. Wedding flowers, music, and joy filled the air. The blessing. She wore a white dress and called Toby “Dad.” With joy, after the wedding, Toby took another surprise step. He promoted Lisa from being just head nurse, to director of Starlight Hospital. Lisa was now where few had ever been.
He was wearing a tight-fitting suit. He held the microphone in his personal interview and addressed everyone. This hospital isn’t just a building; it’s a home. Everyone, regardless of their position, deserves respect starting today. If anyone treats a coworker or patient with pride or malice, they will lose their job. We’re here to save lives, not break hearts. The staff applauded, and like Toby, he stood by her side, beaming like the proudest husband in the world. Lisa knew deep in her heart that she hadn’t just found her job, she had found her purpose.
He found a place and he found true love. In the end, thank you for watching, please.
