Chapter 471
Hearing this, Dr. Thalia’s brows immediately furrowed. She didn’t expect her usually poised and well-
mannered daughter to say something like that. She instantly turned stern. “Jade!”
Jade realized her words were a bit out of line, but she felt indignant. “Dylan, that’s not true! You do like
me!”
Dr. Dylan was a bit exasperated. “I was temporarily suspended because of a medical incident. I’m truly
grateful for your help during that time. But the person I like is Allison, and it always has been. Dr. Jade,
I’m sorry for any misunderstanding. I thought I’ve made myself clear. Please don’t do this again.”
This time, in front of both deans, Dr. Dylan utterly rejected Jade. The always pampered, smooth-sailing
Jade took a nasty fall for the first time. She seemed unable to handle it, her cheeks swiftly turned
scarlet, and a wave of shame swept over her. She then stood up, with her eyes welling up, and left.
Dr. Thalia’s face turned sour. Her own daughter was rejected publicly.
The chaotic scene subsided.
Dr. Thalia glanced at Dr. Dylan. She seemed to want to say something but held back. He was an
excellent doctor, arguably one of the best among the young doctors. Naturally, she held him in high
regard, and was well aware of her daughter’s ongoing crush on him.
Upon learning Dr. Dylan’s affection for Allison, she tried advising her daughter, to no avail. Her
daughter was always pouring her heart out to the wrong person. She didn’t expect things to turn out
this way.
Word traveled fast, and within hours, the whole hospital knew about Dr. Dylan’s rejection of Jade, and
Jade’s relentless pursuit.
Dr. Thalia also felt a bit awkward. She glanced at Allison, not understanding how a woman from a
regular family could overshadow her daughter.
Allison seemed to sense the scrutiny. That gaze was unabashedly sizing her up. Allison also raised her
head to meet Dr. Thalia’s eyes, not showing any hint of
evasion.
Behind her shades, she met Dr. Thalia’s gaze. Their eyes locked, and Dr. Thalia slightly furrowed her
brows. This woman…
There was something about that gaze she couldn’t quite figure out. This woman named Allison was
definitely not as simple as she appeared.
The meeting room slowly emptied.
Allison stood up, looking at Dr. Dylan, and he was looking back at her.
“1…”
They both started at the same time.
“You go first…”
“You go first…”
There was an unspoken understanding between them, and then they exchanged smiles. Allison said,
“I’m sorry if I’ve caused you any trouble.”
Dr. Dylan replied, “No, I should be the one apologizing. I didn’t expect Jade to cause you trouble in the
hospital.”
Allison shook her head. “It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
She stood up. “I have a friend to meet. I’ll be going now.”
Watching Allison’s retreating figure, Dr. Dylan’s eyes grew dim as she left the meeting room. He sat
back down, and after ten minutes, Dr. Dylan stood up and went back to his office.
He turned on the computer, typing on the keyboard-
Resignation request.
After leaving the hospital, Allison went to a restaurant to meet Emma. The restaurant was uniquely
decorated and located by the river, offering a breathtaking view. This material belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
