As long as the hospital director personally mediated the introduction, Dr. York wouldn't dare refuse such a powerful executive command.
Biting her lip, Cynthia suppressed her mounting anxiety. She just had to survive this hurdle.
A few days later.
Inside the lavish VIP dining room on the third floor of the International Hotel.
Dominic lounged in the seat of honor, his posture effortlessly commanding.
Cynthia sat dutifully by his side, her eyes darting toward the heavy mahogany doors every few seconds. A triumphant, inevitable smile played on her lips.
Dominic had just ruthlessly donated two hundred million dollars to Kindred Heart Hospital's new research wing. In exchange for this astronomical bribe, the hospital director had personally guaranteed he would bring his elite gynecology team to this appreciation dinner.
Once they successfully poached the talent tonight, the Ross family's medical division would become virtually untouchable.
Right on cue, the ornate doors were pushed open.
Cynthia instantly stood up, her polite smile at the ready, only for it to shatter into a million pieces the second she saw who walked in.
The director entered first, radiating corporate enthusiasm. Trailing right behind him were Winona and Xavier!
As the three of them stepped into the luxurious dining room, Cynthia's brain entirely short-circuited.
She stared in sheer horror at Xavier, then violently shifted her gaze to Winona. A deafening ringing noise erupted in her ears.
Without thinking, she blurted out, "Director, why the hell did you bring them?!"
The director's obsequious smile vanished, replaced by an offended frown.
"Ms. Ross, are you questioning the credentials of Kindred Heart's elite medical team?"
Cynthia was paralyzed.
The elite medical team?
It was these two people?
How was this even possible?!
She looked frantically between Xavier and Winona, her voice coming out as a dry, raspy wheeze. "You two... you are the legendary Dr. Nash and Dr. York?"
Winona maintained a detached, icy silence, entirely ignoring the question.
Xavier, however, let out a dark, mocking laugh. "We meet again, Ms. Ross."
