Meeting You Was Fate novel Chapter 10

It was an ordinary day at the JR Hospital.

At 2 P.M., patients and medical staff scurried around, doing their own things. The sound of an ambulance was making noise outside, probably rushing up to the emergency room.

Mandy had just completed a cardiac surgery. She was about to change clothes in the dressing room when Jayleen Wen came in and greeted her. She had assisted Mandy with the surgery.

Jayleen was in her forties and was the head nurse of the Cardiology Department of JR Hospital.

"Congratulations Mandy! The surgery is another great success," Jayleen said with enthusiasm. She flashed a warm and genuine smile, apparently proud of the accomplishment.

"Thank you, Jayleen. The success was due to our excellent teamwork. Your contribution helped a lot," Mandy replied.

Mandy stretched her neck from one side to another. The operation, which lasted for six long hours, did not allow her to eat her lunch; hence, it had depleted her energy. She was exhausted and starving.

"Mandy, you are such a great asset to our hospital. You are a natural. You have only been here for two months, but your clinical skills have almost caught up with Harry Li." Jayleen pressed Mandy's hand and whispered, "They say that the director had a word with Harry yesterday and said that he would promote you next month." Jayleen's gladness was filled with hope for her. She believed that Mandy deserved such recognition.

Mandy smiled softly.

Harry Li was the head of the Cardiology Department. He was a well-known and highly respected cardiac surgeon in the city. Probably the best there was. When Mandy joined the team soon after graduating from the British university, Harry had been a little unwelcoming to her. Mandy noticed his dislike to her because her presence imposed a silent threat to his career. That was why he assigned all high-risk and difficult surgeries to her. Mandy took every challenge and turned it to her advantage as a great way to hone her skills.

"Well, if it comes with higher pay, I'll definitely invite you to dinner," Mandy demurely replied trying to hide her own excitement.
