I Stopped Loving Him When He Let Me Bleed Out novel Chapter 214

Vice President Dayton leaned back in his chair and picked up his teacup.

The stage was perfectly set. Now, all they had to do was wait for their target to step onto it.

"Where is Sienna? Why isn't she here yet?" Dayton asked, his patience wearing thin.

A knock sounded at the door.

A clerk peeked into the room, holding a manila folder.

"Vice President Dayton, Sienna just submitted her resignation. This is her personnel file. HR asked me to bring it over for archiving."

A dead silence blanketed the room.

Dayton's teacup froze halfway to his mouth.

"She resigned? She gave up her staff position?" he demanded, his voice thick with disbelief.

Did she see this coming? How could she preempt them like this?

The clerk set the file on the table and slipped out, closing the door behind him.

Dayton's hands shook with rage, malicious calculations swirling behind his glasses.

Finally, he slammed the folder down onto the desk.

"She thinks she can just walk away? That's far too easy. We hold her file. Unless she plans on abandoning medicine entirely, I'd like to see what hospital would dare hire her without it. When she needs her records transferred, she'll have to come crawling back to us!"

Around the corner in the hallway, Isaac Holloway stood quietly.

His phone buzzed with a message from an HR assistant.

"Sienna submitted her resignation, but the directors have confiscated her file."

His grip on his phone tightened, and he took a step forward to intervene.

His phone rang.

It was his father, Theodore Holloway.

"Isaac, you need to stay out of Sienna's business."

"Dad, how do you know about this?"

"Everyone knows. Let me be perfectly clear: Sienna's career is over. Do you have any idea who she offended? Grant Fletcher personally made a call to the Health Commission. If you get involved, you'll be tossing your own future down the drain."

"But Dad, she didn't do anything wrong!"

"There are no 'buts.' I'm telling you once. She has no future in this field. You can't save her, so don't drag yourself down trying."
