The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 625

As I packed up my things after my shift, Amber scurried over. "Selena, do you have any plans tonight? Want to grab dinner together?"

"Aren't you eating with your boyfriend?" I looked at her, a bit surprised. "Is he working overtime tonight?"

Amber's boyfriend was a textbook perfect partner. Even though his job was demanding, he always made time to pick her up from work. They were incredibly affectionate and practically my model for an ideal relationship.

Unless Marcus had to work late.

But even when Marcus had overtime, he'd make sure Amber was taken care of. Her asking me to dinner probably just meant she needed some company.

But Amber frowned, looking noticeably upset. "I don't want to eat with him."

"What's wrong? Did you guys have a fight?" It seemed more serious than I thought. The lovebirds were actually arguing.

Since I joined Capital General, the Head Nurse and Dr. Yates had taken the best care of me, but Amber was my most loyal friend. We had naturally grown closer over time; she always looked out for me, and I cared for her too.

Plus, her relationship with her boyfriend was something I deeply envied and admired. Hearing they were fighting made me a little anxious.

Amber's frown deepened. "It's not just a fight... Forget it. I don't want to talk about him, and I don't want to talk about us."

If she didn't want to elaborate, I wasn't going to press the issue.

Amber hugged my arm and shook it lightly. "Selena, just have dinner with me. Let's go to a Korean BBQ spot tonight. My treat, okay?"

"I'll treat you. Let's go." I didn't hesitate, grabbing her hand as we headed downstairs.
