Mrs. Marsh's Revealed Identities novel (Jennifer and Ivan) novel Chapter 1290

Chapter 1290 Make Her Disappear

Daphne was exasperated. "No, we're not," she replied, feeling annoyed and uneasy.
"Why did you spend the night at his place? You clearly live right across from the hospital!" To Daphne, this question felt more like an interrogation, and she didn't know how to answer it.
She couldn't admit that she had taken it upon herself to stay in his guest room for the night without his permission, could she? She was a woman too and had her dignity!
"Stop asking! Go check your patients!" Daphne's face turned livid, struggling to control her emotions. "And don't ask Dr. Watson either! We don't need to explain our affairs to anyone!" Seeing her genuinely angry, her colleagues didn't dare to ask any more questions.
At Russell's Villa, Claire had deleted all contact information for Rowan but still hadn't received a call from him. Her memories and affection for him couldn't be erased. She still hoped he would call and explain everything to her. So, every moment was incredibly agonizing for Claire.
She felt her world had lost its light, and everything she did seemed dull, even sleeping felt like a torment.
At two in the afternoon, Rowan finally emerged from the operating room after six hours of surgery. The patient's condition had stabilized, and he and his team members breathed a sigh of relief. The subsequent recovery and treatment were long processes, and they still had to develop a plan for the patient.
"Dr. Watson," his assistant handed him the resignation agreement in the office. "It's ready, do you want to review it?"
"No need to look, just give it to her directly," Rowan said. "Tell her to sign it and leave immediately."
The assistant hesitated with the agreement, wondering what had happened to make him so angry. "What's wrong?" Rowan noticed his reluctance to speak.
The assistant asked cautiously, "Did you two have a fight last night?"
Rowan was slightly taken aback, catching the words 'last night.'
"Why are you firing her? She didn't do anything wrong at work. Don't make decisions when you're impulsive."
Rowan's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and he looked at his assistant with a mix of emotions in his eyes. "How did you know we met last night?"
The assistant blurted out, "It's all over the news. Dr. Wells spent the night at your house! By now, perhaps the whole Arkpool City knows, if not the entire world."
Rowan stared at his assistant, his eyes filled with astonishment. His elegant eyebrows furrowed, and his mind was filled with disbelief.
"What... you didn't know?" The assistant was surprised but immediately realized it was normal since Rowan had just come out of the operating room and hadn't even had lunch yet.
Rowan's face held a subtle mix of emotions, with a faint coldness emanating from his eyes. The next second, he picked up his phone and opened the news page. Headlines and photos of him and Daphne filled the screen! The titles made him angry and speechless.
Taking the resignation agreement from his assistant, Rowan left the office.
Daphne had a bad feeling. The news put a lot of pressure on her, and she hadn't even gone to eat lunch, not knowing whether the surgery had ended. It was only when Rowan entered the room that she tensed up, seeing the anger in his eyes.
"Rowan..." she stood up, wanting to explain.
He slammed the resignation agreement on the table, angrily grabbing her wrist. "You're really malicious enough! You actually brought reporters with you!"
"It wasn't me, it wasn't..." She didn't care about the pain in her wrist.
"Daphne, I really underestimated you!" Rowan suppressed the raging anger in his heart as if he wanted to destroy her. "You must find a way to clarify the situation with the media and reveal the truth!"
"..." Daphne was terrified, tears in her eyes as she faced his hateful gaze.
"Also, sign this!" Rowan maintained a shred of rationality as he let go of her hand and pushed her away. "I don't want to see you again!"
