Chapter 614 The Fish On The Hook
“I know that Ms. Lane just called you away, and I’m also aware that since you arrived at the hospital, there have been 18 patients seeking your attention and six doctors interested, including Isaac.”
“I’m also aware that, in the eyes of others, Zachary is your husband.”
“And…”
Before he could finish, Cherise turned with a flushed face and seethed, “If you have something to say, say it in my office!”
A group of patients and their families huddled around the nurse’s station, straining to overhear the conversation.
These gossipy nurses!
Do they keep track of how many patients and doctors are seeking her attention?
Don’t they have anything better to do?
Damien gracefully entered Cherise’s office behind her, suppressing a chuckle.
“Oh.”
Lucy was engrossed in a medical journal in the office.
Lucy nearly whistled in surprise as Cherise and Damien walked into the office one after the other.
The doctor beside her looked at Lucy confusedly and asked, “Dr. Staber, is something wrong?”
“Nothing.” She stifled her laughter.
Lucy stood up and scanned the young doctors who had just started their internships. “Who mentioned wanting to visit Maeye?”
A row of young doctors raised their hands simultaneously.
Maeve’s condition was unique, and though no one openly admitted it, they were all intrigued by this patient.

“What else would there be?”
He raised a smile, “I’m not interested in them.”

She pursed her lips and scoffed. “What else did they tell you?”
“Quite a fair bit.”
Damien settled into Cherise’s chair, casually flipping through the files on her desk before glancing at her computer desktop.
“Runaway Hearts?”
Damien looked at her and chuckled, “Who said she doesn’t read novels now?”
Cherise was surprised as she remembered discovering an online novel during a boring night shift.
She saved a bookmark on the desktop for easy accessibility.
Her face flushed as she hurriedly grabbed the mouse to delete the icon. All content is © N0velDrama.Org.
Damien sat there leisurely, watching her, “Right, it should be deleted.”
“Otherwise, it might harm your image if people discovered that the usually serious and scholarly Dr. Shaw reads romance novels during work hours.”
Cherise’s words caught in her throat.
Everyone knows that she loves romance novels. What’s wrong with that?
She took a deep breath and asserted, “Mr. Lenoir, I thought you came here to discuss serious. matters with me.”
Damien smiled faintly, “I want to discuss serious matters with you.”
He glanced at my phone, “The fish is on the hook.”
