Mr George, Don't Be So Arrogant

"Dr. Watson has been summoned away again by Ms. Pouchain. I am very uneasy. Do you think Dr. Watson has had a good day since Ms. Pouchain came over to our hospital?"

"She's an ace doctor and has a heavier task than us. Let’s ask her how she's doing when she gets back. "

In Jeanne's office.

Riley held the back of her chair with one hand to ease the pain in her stomach, "Ms. Pouchain, what did you want to see me about?"

Jeanne sat in a chair and looked at her with her arms wrapped around her chest. She wore eyeliner and her make-up was delicate. But she had a scowl on her face. She looked Riley over carefully, "The Dean has given orders for you to assist with the whole review. Also ..." She gritted her teeth with great reluctance, "You are assisting Mr. Hardesty with the overhaul of the cardiology department for this period."

After saying that, she threw a copy of the file at her and snorted coldly, "Riley, how on earth do you do that? How come you get involved in everything!"

Right? Riley sneered. Who cared if she was involved in everything? She'd rather not be involved in this shit anymore.

She took the file in her hand, "Ms. Pouchain, do you have anything else to say?"

Jeanne gave her a stern look, "The patient from last time decided not to have the operation in the end. Are you satisfied?"

Well? The one that was discussed at the meeting, "Patients are instinctive in avoiding harm. What do I have to be satisfied with? If you don't have anything else, I'll go to work."

She really didn't want to talk to Jeanne anymore.

"Stop."

Jeanne stood up and walked behind her with her heels clicking on the floor. She said sarcastically, "Riley, don't think that just because you assist Mr. Hardesty in his work that you can take advantage of the opportunity to do something dishonorable with him!"

Riley's mouth curled into a slight disdainful smile and she turned around. She smiled with grace as she fought back the pain in her stomach, "How about you go to ..."

"Humph! No more business for you here. Get out."

It wasn't that she hadn't fought for it, but the Dean said she was new to the hospital and didn't know the situation, whereas Riley had been here for a long time and was familiar with all aspects of it, and she would be just the right complement to William.

The Dean didn't mean anything else, and he just wanted the hospital to make the cut.

There was resentment in her heart, but there was nothing she could do to change it.

Riley unfolded the file and read a few lines. Then her phone rang.

She was marking the highlights with a pen, so she just opened her phone and answered it.

"Dr. Watson, this is going to be a tough time for you. I was surprised by the Dean's arrangement too, but ... I just got this notice, so ..."

Riley smiled graciously, "Mr. Hardesty, you don't have to explain. I know. And given your character, you probably wouldn't abuse your authority to deploy me, a little doctor, to go anywhere."

When he heard her say that, William finally let out the breath he was holding, "I was just worried that you might have misunderstood. After all ..." He paused, "after all, now that I'm pursuing you, there are times when I inevitably have to use some tricks."

On the other end of the line, the pen in Riley's hand slipped and drew a long black slash across the file, "Mr. Hardesty, I told you that we ..."

"You've got the file, right? Let's start today with the medical equipment check."

He changed the subject so quickly that she didn't have a chance to say anything at all, "Okay."
