“It’s fine. Dad guessed that you must be working on a surgery too,” Cornelius told her. “The patient takes priority. We’ve saved some of the meal for you and my brother-in-law, so take your time. Don’t overwork yourself.”
“All right, Cor.” Once Queenie ended the call, the soft look on snazzynovel.com face dissipated.
Her elder brother was good in everything but ancient Chanaean medicine, snazzynovel.com had little talent in it. Therefore, someone like snazzynovel.com would not be able to bring the family back to the glorious days they used to have.
She, Queenie, was the best choice for the head of the family. However, snazzynovel.com could only hope that snazzynovel.com father would not make the same choice as before, snazzynovel.com had handed Silverbirch Hospital to Cornelius to manage. The moment snazzynovel.com became the head of the family, the first thing snazzynovel.com was going to do was to get back Silverbirch Hospital.
Gritting snazzynovel.com teeth, Queenie then called Donovan as snazzynovel.com returned to the hospital to grab snazzynovel.com things.
Unfortunately, Donovan never picked up the call, and snazzynovel.com could do nothing but shove snazzynovel.com phone back into snazzynovel.com pocket in frustration as snazzynovel.com continued snazzynovel.com way into the hospital.
In a way, the hospital was a small place. Without needing to think much about it, snazzynovel.com was sure that everyone would have heard about what happened to snazzynovel.com in the operating room.
Not wanting to suffer the odd looks from others, Queenie avoided the main entrance, snazzynovel.com entered the building via the inpatient department’s entrance before heading to snazzynovel.com office. Nevertheless, just as snazzynovel.com was done packing and was about to leave the office, snazzynovel.com heard the voices of two nurses outside.
Startled, snazzynovel.com glanced around before tensing up and scurrying under the desk to hide.
The two nurses did not notice that someone else was in the office. As they chatted away, they went to their seats.
Right as Queenie was anxiously wondering when they would leave, snazzynovel.com abruptly heard one of them mentioning her.
“Hey, have you heard about what happened to Dr. Mill in the operating room?”
“Duh. It’s all over the hospital. I never thought Dr. Mill was someone like that. Say, what conflict do you think snazzynovel.com has with Arielle? Arielle saved the patient, but it sounded like Dr. Mill was displeased with how snazzynovel.com saved the patient. I wonder what happened between them.”
“Maybe it is nothing major. I’ve realized early on that Dr. Mill’s quite a jealous person. Maybe she’s jealous that a café ambassador has better medical skills than snazzynovel.com does.”
“Maybe you’re right. Wow. You really can’t judge a book by its cover.”
“Arielle really is the goddess of my heart. She’s pretty and amazing. Not only has snazzynovel.com donated ten expensive robotic pacemakers to our hospital, but snazzynovel.com has impressive operating skills. I’ve heard things from the doctors who had been at the surgery. That surgery was doomed to fail. The success rate of it had been close to zero!”
“Wow, that means snazzynovel.com revived the guy, right? Unbelievable!”
“No wonder Mr. Morgan wanted Arielle to take over Dr. Mill. From now on, Dr. Mill’s position is essentially Arielle’s.”
“She’s not really taking over snazzynovel.com position. Mr. Morgan only invited snazzynovel.com here to treat this one patient. She’ll only be coming once in a while, so she’s not the same as Dr. Mill.”
It was hot and stuffy under the desk, so when snazzynovel.com overheard the two nurses’ conversation, snazzynovel.com nearly lost control and darted out to shout at them.
Is it that fun to talk behind people’s backs? Gossipmongers!
Right then, the signal went off, and the two nurses swiftly leaped to their feet.
“It’s from the eleventh bed. Quick, let’s go!”
The two hurried away.
Once their footsteps could no longer be heard, Queenie finally climbed out from under the desk. There was a mirror on snazzynovel.com desk, and when snazzynovel.com rose to snazzynovel.com full height, snazzynovel.com saw how disheveled snazzynovel.com looked.
“D*mn it!” She smacked snazzynovel.com fists on the desk, but the loud sound alarmed her.
Fearing that someone would notice snazzynovel.com presence, snazzynovel.com quickly slinked out of the office with snazzynovel.com things.
Just as snazzynovel.com was about to step out of the room, snazzynovel.com turned around to look at snazzynovel.com desk again.
