Who Knew My Assigned Mechanic Husband Was a Big Shot? novel Chapter 152

Walter remained standing with his hands behind his back, his expression unreadable, clearly unsatisfied with the apology.

Brenda shouted it five consecutive times before Walter finally turned and walked away.

Sloane and Zoe hurried after him.

By now, everyone in the cafeteria knew the unauthorized surgery was a complete lie.

No one cared about Brenda anymore; their attention shifted entirely to the Naval Hospital.

Especially to Walter.

"Who was that man just now?"

"You don't know him? He's..."

Someone else chimed in, "That female doctor might be young, but she doesn't look like someone who would do something so reckless."

"And she's incredibly gorgeous, too."

Brenda climbed down from the table, utterly defeated and desperately wanting to cry.

But she held her tears back.

Dustin, Logan's assistant, returned with food from the cafeteria and relayed the entire incident to him.

Logan let out a cold scoff. "Walter has always been fiercely protective of his own. Anyone who messes with him ends up regretting the day they were born!"

Dustin hesitated, looking like he wanted to add something.

"Spit it out," Logan demanded.

Dustin cleared his throat. "Everyone is saying that cafeteria lady was just jealous of the young, pretty doctor. I caught a glimpse of her myself. The doctor looks like a movie star."

Logan shot him a deadly glare. "Don't even think about hitting on her!"

"I wasn't! I was just thinking..."

"Thinking what?"

Dustin decided to be bold. "You've been on leave for half a year and still haven't settled down or started a family. Why don't you make a few trips to the hospital? Fake a dizzy spell or something, get to know the girl, and see if maybe..."

Logan's gaze turned razor-sharp. "Great idea. Making fun of me now? Tomorrow morning, run twenty extra laps!"

Dustin went pale.

So much for trying to help!

Leaving the cafeteria, Sloane felt a wave of warmth wash over her.
