Jenny and Zack had lunch together before she went to meet up with Joey. She left him some kind words and advice
before finally retiring to her apartment.
Dinner was spent with her colleagues. no.velxo They had several toasts to her health before their director grumbled
that things wouldn't be the same once Jenny left. Their one solace was that Jenny would still come back to perform
surgeries if needed.
The people enjoyed their dinner, all sad to see Jenny go but in awe of her at the same time. A skilled doctor with

"Dr. Stewart." Jenny nodded.
"Are you really leaving?" the man asked,no.velxo voice thick with emotion.
Jenny nodded, not explaining further. What else was this dinner for?
Jared sighed. "Dr. Walter, I've... I've always liked you.’

girlfriend.

relationship. He felt he deserved better, so he went to confess to Jenny again.
"Where did you go?" the nurse asked suspiciously.
