The Cold Surgeon's Contract Bride novel Chapter 49

I guessed Dr. Yates had already watched my performance on the observation cameras.

But that level of performance probably wasn't enough to impress someone like Ferris.

With that in mind, I stole a discreet glance at the man beside me. As luck would have it, our eyes met perfectly.

A second later, his icy voice rang out. "She's nowhere near the passing mark."

His disdain was incredibly blunt and unapologetic.

This was the second time tonight he had humiliated me in front of everyone.

I knew I was still a rookie in the Anesthesiology department, but did he have to crush my pride like this?

Even a casual friend would take the other person's feelings into account, wouldn't they?

Sensing my discomfort, Dr. Yates quickly intervened. "Now, Selena, Dr. Sterling is the hospital's living legend. His standards are naturally sky-high. Don't let it discourage you."

I forced a stiff smile but said nothing.

Just then, the cafeteria staff arrived with a late-night delivery. Dr. Yates immediately clapped her hands. "It's late! Let's all grab some food and recharge."

And so, both departments piled into the break room together.
