She would never ever forget how loudly her classmate cheered after hearing about the incident, “Oh my heart! Nancy, you’re damn lucky. Dr. Berry is like a celebrity doctor at the First Hospital and she only does one surgery per month. Many could not even schedule her for operations and you were on the same flight with her?! I’m so jealous of you. I’d kill to have Dr. Berry touch my hand, you know?!”
At a very young age, Ashlyn had earned the reputation of being the best doctor in a renowned hospital in Lake City. Her future was immeasurably bright.
Luckily, Nancy did not reveal to her classmate that Dr. Berry was actually Mrs. Nolan, otherwise...
Nancy sighed while walking towards Jenny, “As a kind reminder, please be mindful that Captain Nolan is married. He seems to have a very good relationship with his wife, so you’d better give up.”
“Tell me, how do I give it all up? I’ve loved him all these years and given my everything to be near him but he hasn’t even noticed me,” Jenny lamented as she wailed loudly.
Her makeup had smudged all over her face, looking really pathetic. Nancy felt sorry for her and yet she said helplessly, “Whatever it is, he doesn’t love you and neither does he know that you love him.”
“I don’t care. I love him and I must win him over!” Jenny exclaimed and then left furiously.
Nancy shook her head and let out another long sigh.
The Land Rover shuttled in the midst of heavy traffic.
Jared made a remark while driving, “Boss, you’re famous now. You appeared to be in the hottest search topic, did you know?”
“What? I’m not a celebrity, why would my name be in one of the most popular searches?” Ashlyn was resting with her eyes closed but when she heard Jared, she slowly opened her eyes with doubt.
“Well, somebody posted a video clip of your heroic act when you appeased the passengers,” Jared giggled as he thought about the praises for Ashlyn that he had read online, all complimenting how cool she was.
This was nothing! Jared really wanted to leave a comment too, to tell all netizens that his boss had way cooler moments than this.
“Jared Quickton, why are you here for?” Ashlyn did a quick search on the Internet and then threw her phone aside and gazed seriously at Jared with her arms folded.
The good looking man was puzzled, “Huh?”
Did I say something wrong?
“Must I spell it out for you?” Ashlyn was losing her patience, “Act now and withdraw the search topic.”
She certainly did not want to attract any attention.
“Well, didn’t they anonymize the face already? What is there to worry about?” Jared felt that it was not a big deal.
