The Million-Dollar Heart (Percival and Vivienne) novel Chapter 1182

"Sweetheart, why don't you just chill at home for a few days, or how about we hit the road for a little getaway? Let's not keep all that stress bottled up, okay?" Doreen gently urged Faye.

It had taken quite a bit for Faye to bounce back from the recent turmoil, and Doreen was adamant not to let those shadows loom over her daughter again.

Distracting Faye seemed the only viable option to lighten her spirits.

"Got it, Mom." Faye understood Doreen's concerns and flashed her a reassuring smile.

"Alright then, I'll book the tickets. We haven't really done anything fun together since you were in grade school," Doreen said, her spirits lifted. She began browsing through travel deals on her phone, planning a few days away for the two of them.

Faye agreed, thinking a short trip might help her sort through her thoughts.

As Faye started her break, Logan stepped up, taking over her workload during her absence.

The hospital staff marveled at Logan's capability to juggle his responsibilities along with Faye's, admiring his versatility.

The interns originally under Faye's guidance felt a mix of guilt and apprehension as they transitioned to Logan's supervision, especially considering the mishap that had occurred under their watch, which had sparked the whole situation.

Sensing their hesitancy, Logan looked up and said, "What's with the long faces? Missing Faye so much that you've lost your drive? If you're not up for work, hit the books. Don't bring down the mood in my office."

His tone was measured, hiding the concern behind a stern facade. One bold intern stepped forward, apologizing loudly, "Logan, we're really sorry!"

Logan, taken aback, took a moment before addressing the group.

"What's this all about?"

"We feel responsible for the incident that occurred. It wouldn't have happened if not for our negligence, and we're truly sorry for the trouble we caused," said the intern, her voice shrinking with each word.

Trying not to laugh at her dramatics, Logan asked, "And how do you propose to make amends?"

The intern was at a loss for words until another, Gemma, came forward, admitting it was her fault for distracting the others, insisting she alone should bear the blame.
