Chapter 892
That evening, Lena finished her final post-op inspection for a pregnant patient, pulled off her gloves, and
officially ended her day of work.
“Dr. Lane, tto go!” The head nurse cover to call her.
“Go where?” Lena was exhausted. At that moment, she didn’t even want to move-she just wanted to go home
and collapse into bed.
The head nurse grinned. “Dr. Lane, you're so tired you've forgotten! The director announced tonight's
celebration banquet. The hotel is already booked-it’s at the Moon Tower here in Seavora.”
“Can | take a rain check?” Lena didn’t even want to change out of her scrubs.
“You're the guest of honor tonight. How could you not go?” The head nurse, seeing how truly drained Lena
looked, stepped forward to help her out of her work uniform. “You don’t have to do anything there except eat
and drink.
She didn’t even feel like eating or drinking-was that okay?
But sthings can’t be avoided. No matter how much Lena didn’t want to go, she couldn't refuse. As the head
nurse had said, she was the star of the evening. If she didn’t go, how could anyone else feel comfortable
attending?
Though she wasn’t looking forward to it, others were eagerly anticipating it. The head nurse's reaction made that
clear.
Sure enough, as soon as Lena stepped out of the changing room, Nate was already there. ” You can ride with me
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlater,” he said.
“No need. I'll drive myself. That way, | can leave right after dinner,” Lena declined.
Nate didn’t insist, but a trace of disappointment flickered in his eyes. He could sense the growing distance
between them.
“The two of you, as the main guests, don’t need to drive. The hospital has prepared a bus to take us there,” the
head nurse chimed in again.
“Everyone's ready. Let's go together,” someone called out. Soon, everyone who could -attend gathered together.
On the bus, people quickly found their seats. In the end, only the two center seats were left
for Nate and Lena.
Lena didn’t think much of it. She sat down gracefully and pulled out her phone to send a message to Aaron:
[Uncle, we have a celebration at the hospital tonight. I'll be hlate.]

At that moment, Aaron was sitting on the couch at home. The pot in the kitchen was still steaming.
He knew she would be tired today, so he'd decided to prepare something at hto celebrate, letting her relax.
[Okay.]
Lena received a single word in reply.
She couldn't help but smile, thinking to herself, Does it cost you money to use more words? Why so stingy?
Nate noticed her smile and instinctively glanced at her phone. He saw the contact icon-a simple “Z.”
Was this someone new she'd befriended recently?
Sensing Nate's gaze, Lena quietly put away her phone and closed her eyes.
The bus was quiet for a moment until a young nurse broke the silence.
“The hospital arranged for a driver. They're definitely going to have us drink later. Just a heads-up-1'm not good
with alcohol. Please don’t makedrink too much, especially you guys. If | lose control after drinking, don’t
blme.”
“Haha...”
Everyone burst into laughter. Someone chimed in, “Are you issuing a warning before you misbehave?”
“I'm just saying, don’t push me. If you do, and | drink too much, I'll cafter whoever madedrink.”
“In that case, I'll drink for you,” a male nurse joked.
The laughter grew louder. The female nurse playfully hit him, and the two started bickering. The onlookers joined
in, teasing, “Why don’t you two just get married here and now? Dr. Lane and Dr. Neumann can be your
witnesses.’
Lena hadn't said a single word during all this, yet she was dragged into it.
“Not them! They're unlucky as
witnesses—they rg exes saneedne
