Neo couldn’t understand, and he couldn’t accept it.
“At such a critical time, you want to leave? Do you know? I feel like I’m hallucinating,” he said.
Freya sat down and replied, “You didn’t mishear.”
“When you first came to the hospital, no one liked you and even caused you trouble. Now, everyone has finally accepted you, seen your abilities, acknowledged you, and you want to leave? If I had known you were going to leave so soon, I wouldn’t have accepted you in the first place. This job is very demanding, but we all work hard, and many seniors have been doing this for over ten years and still stand firm. But you, when faced with a minor incident involving the former hospital director, want to leave? Do you even like this job?” Neo asked angrily.
Facing his questions, Freya lowered her gaze.
She wanted to work.
But she had a family and children.
With so many things happening at home, if she only focused on herself, it would be selfish.
Looking at Neo, she asked, “Are you married?”
Neo shook his head dumbly.
Not understanding why Freya suddenly asked him this.
“If you’re not married, you wouldn’t understand. I can’t explain,” she chuckled. “Thank you for your support and help.”
Neo remained silent.
“Even if you’re going to leave, you have to wait for approval, right?” he finally asked.
Freya didn’t want to wait.
Neo asked, “What about this patient? Will you give him an artificial heart? If you’ve decided to leave, then do it.”
Freya remained silent.
She knew what Neo meant.
At least wait for the successful announcement of the artificial heart.
So that she could leave with dignity.
But she was tired.
“Otherwise, I won’t let you leave,” Neo blocked the door.
Freya found his behavior amusing.
“Why are you so childish?” she asked.
“I don’t care,” Neo shrugged.
Freya said, “Fine, you take care of this matter!”
“You agree?” Neo asked in surprise.
Freya nodded, “I agree.”
Neo said, “Think about who will take your place. I’ll go tell the patient the good news.”
Freya watched Neo happily and smiled, not saying a word.
She had already planned it out.
There were qualified and trustworthy people in the hospital.
She could hand it over without worry.
…..
Orion got drunk.
He didn’t drink in front of Elijah, pretending to be calm.
After Elijah left, he drank by himself.
He got drunk.
He slept in the private room all night.
“Sir?” The waitress called out softly.
Orion slowly opened his eyes.
His head was pounding.
He couldn’t help but frown.
“What time is it now?” he asked.
The waitress replied, “It’s almost nine o’clock.”
He let out a deep sigh as he lay back.
“Do you need water?” the waitress asked.
Orion looked at her and shook his head, “No, thank you.”
“Here’s your bill.”
Orion took out his wallet, pulled out a card, and handed it to her, “No password.”
The waitress swiped his card and returned it to him.
Orion put the card back, stood up, slung his jacket over his shoulder, and walked out.
The sunlight was beautiful today.
He looked up, feeling dazzled.
He squinted his eyes.
He smiled to himself and moved forward.
From now on, Luna would no longer be a part of his life.
He got into his car.
Started it and drove off.
But he was stopped at a red light intersection!
