Chapter 471
Hearing this, Dr. Thalia’s brows immediately furrowed. She didn’t expect her usually poised and well-mannered
daughter to say something like that. She instantly turned stern. “Jade!”
Jade realized her words were a bit out of line, but she felt indignant. “Dylan, that’s not true! You do like me!”
Dr. Dylan was a bit exasperated. “I was temporarily suspended because of a medical incident. I’m truly grateful for
your help during that time. But the person I like is Allison, and it always has been. Dr. Jade, I’m sorry for any
misunderstanding. I thought I’ve made myself clear. Please don’t do this again.”
This time, in front of both deans, Dr. Dylan utterly rejected Jade. The always pampered, smooth-sailing Jade took a
nasty fall for the first time. She seemed unable to handle it, her cheeks swiftly turned scarlet, and a wave of shame
swept over her. She then stood up, with her eyes welling up, and left.

The chaotic scene subsided.
Dr. Thalia glanced at Dr. Dylan. She seemed to want to say something but held back. He was an excellent doctor,
arguably one of the best among the young doctors. Naturally, she held him in high regard, and was well aware of
her daughter’s ongoing crush on him.
Upon learning Dr. Dylan’s affection for Allison, she tried advising her daughter, to no avail. Her daughter was always
pouring her heart out to the wrong person. She didn’t expect things to turn out this way.
Word traveled fast, and within hours, the whole hospital knew about Dr. Dylan’s rejection of Jade, and Jade’s
relentless pursuit.
Dr. Thalia also felt a bit awkward. She glanced at Allison, not understanding how a woman from a regular family
could overshadow her daughter.
Allison seemed to sense the scrutiny. That gaze was unabashedly sizing her up. Allison also raised her head to meet
Dr. Thalia’s eyes, not showing any hint of
evasion.
Behind her shades, she met Dr. Thalia’s gaze. Their eyes locked, and Dr. Thalia slightly furrowed her brows. This
woman…
There was something about that gaze she couldn’t quite figure out. This woman named Allison was definitely not as
simple as she appeared.
The meeting room slowly emptied.
Allison stood up, looking at Dr. Dylan, and he was looking back at her.
“1…”
They both started at the same time.

“You go first…”
There was an unspoken understanding between them, and then they exchanged smiles. Allison said, “I’m sorry if
I’ve caused you any trouble.”
Dr. Dylan replied, “No, I should be the one apologizing. I didn’t expect Jade to cause you trouble in the hospital.”
Allison shook her head. “It’s fine. Don’t worry about it.”
She stood up. “I have a friend to meet. I’ll be going now.”
Watching Allison’s retreating figure, Dr. Dylan’s eyes grew dim as she left the meeting room. He sat back down, and
after ten minutes, Dr. Dylan stood up and went back to his office.
He turned on the computer, typing on the keyboard-
Resignation request.
After leaving the hospital, Allison went to a restaurant to meet Emma. The restaurant was uniquely decorated and
located by the river, offering a breathtaking view.
“How are you doing? You had so much to drink last night, do you have a hangover?”
