Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 719

Cassie was sitting at the table by the window. She looked down from the 28th floor. The street was crowded with people. Sunlight bounced off the calm river nearby like a thousand stars swimming at sea. It looked magnificent and charming, which made Cassie lost in thought. Jamie, who was sitting beside her, nudged her with his elbow. She snapped back to her senses.

The dean stood up with a kind smile on his wrinkled face. He raised his goblet, the red liquid inside splashing against the side of the vessel like crimson ocean waves lapping on the shore. It looked pretty and enchanting against the light in the room.

"To all my dear doctors, you are the backbone of our hospital. We are here to welcome a newly joined member. You have already met her. Her name is Dr. Audrey Yao. She holds a master's degree in medicine from Oxford, an accolade that she attained at a young age. She also holds a doctorate in medicine from Switzerland University. She is indeed a young talent, but I believe that she will be able to fill the shoes of our former cardiology department directors like Mandy, Leo, and Jamie. I believe as well that Audrey will make an outstanding contribution to our hospital." The dean grinned from ear to ear, and the wrinkles on his face became more defined. He looked almost smug as if he had just won the lottery.

Casting a bitter glance at the dean, Cassie sneered in her heart. 'This woman's means are really superb. When Leo came back from the UK, nobody held a party for him like this. Now everything's grand and a big deal just because of Audrey. It's really unsettling.

Is there something going on between Audrey and the dean?'

Cassie could not help speculating as she watched the scene unfold before her. In her eyes, Audrey looked like someone who would seduce powerful men to get what she wants.

After the dean's little speech, all the doctors in the room applauded. It was as if a big star was in the room among them.

"Now, may I request Dr. Audrey to please say a few words?" The dean turned to look at Audrey. He spoke to her with a smile.

Audrey wore a red dress. The design of the waistline perfectly fit her slender waist. It also had a low neckline so that her full cleavage was revealed. The light reflected beautifully in her face, making her delicate features look even more stunning.

The dean raised his head and looked at Audrey. He was quite satisfied with her. A young, talented doctor had come to work at JR Hospital. The hospital was truly lucky to have her. But truth be told, the dean did have some inappropriate thoughts whenever Audrey was around. He just did not speak of it.

Others might not know it, but the dean knew it clearly: Audrey was Leo's junior schoolmate. Before she came on board at the hospital, Leo had called the dean on purpose to ask him to take good care of Audrey. Leo had made an outstanding contribution to the hospital four years ago. He had won a lot of awards when he was serving the hospital, and he helped boost the hospital's reputation.

Leo had changed a lot. He was not the same person he used to be. Now, he was a big shot in the business world in City Z, just like the famous Nathan in City A.

"Hello, everyone, I'm Dr. Audrey Yao. First of all, I want to thank the dean for his generous hospitality. I'm new here, and there are still many things I'm not clear about. I still have a lot of things to learn from all of you. I look forward to working with you. Thank you." Audrey smiled, her fair face blushing.

"We gather here tonight to celebrate. Enjoy yourselves, and please don't worry about the bill. I'll take care of it." The dean spoke gleefully. He raised his glass and proposed a toast to everyone at their table.
