Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1244

“Take it out of the lab? Absolutely not! The only way you’re allowed to work on it is at the hospital.”

Sabrina muttered, half amused, half exasperated.

“You have no idea what a golden opportunity this is! If it weren’t for me, you’d never get anywhere near the best medical experts in the country. Stop trying to bargain with me!”

Elysia’s tone was cool, almost bored. “Then never mind. I’m not going.”

Sabrina stared at her, stunned. “You’re not coming? Don’t you want to work on virus research with me?”

“Nope. Not interested.”

“Wait—did you hear what I just said? I’m offering you a chance to work with the top medical minds, to maybe get a spot in the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association!”

“I heard you. Still not interested.”

Sabrina couldn’t believe it. “Do you even realize what it means to rub shoulders with those people? Or what joining the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association could do for your career?”

“I don’t know, and honestly, I don’t care. The Association isn’t exactly a dream of mine.”

Sabrina was dumbfounded. “You don’t care about the Association? Are you out of your mind?”

Before Elysia could answer, Tarquin snatched her phone and cut in, his voice icy.

“Maybe you’re the one who’s lost it. Stop bothering my wife and get lost.”

He hung up, not waiting for a reply.

Sabrina just stared at her phone, so shocked her jaw nearly hit the floor.

Ungrateful brat!

Absolutely clueless!

She’d offered Elysia a free pass into the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association, something most people would kill for, and all she got was a brush-off?

Was Elysia some kind of idiot?

If she didn’t care about the Association, what future did she think she had in medicine?

Moron!

Sabrina gritted her teeth, seething.

“Reject me, will she? She’ll regret this; just wait. Even if she comes crawling back someday, I won’t give her another chance. Stupid little nobody!”
