“What? You wanna quit?” Amanda stared at
od at the resignation letter Elisabeth handed over, totally baffled.
Laura was about to give her work report when she heard Elizabeth was leaving and was just as shocked.
Everything seemed fine, so why was Elizabeth suddenly balling?
Elizabeth nodded. “Ms. Carter, I wanna
Amanda frowned, flipping through Elizabeth’s resignation letter with a puzzled look. Elizabeth didn’t give a reason; it seemed like she just didn’t wanna stick around the hospital anymore.
thiest sure
sure about this?” Amanda asked Elizabeth again and again
Elizabeth nodded like a bobblehead.
Amanda went quiet.
Elizabeth hoped Amanda would just sign off on it
But Laura looked pretty bummed out.
Elizabeth glanced at Laura, who furrowed her brows and then walked off after a few seconds.
Amanda told Elizabeth to leave for now; she needed to chat with Nick about this.
Elizabeth followed Laura.
Laura stopped at the emergency exit stairwell. They looked at each other, and Laura sighed. “Is this because of me?”
“What are you talking about, Dr. Dixon?” Elizabeth flashed a stunning smile.
Laura glared at her, feeling a bit attacked by her beauty.
Elizabeth was drop–dead gorgeous, with a fierce charm. She made hearts race and people fall for her.
“There’s been talk in the department that Ms. Carter’s planning to leave the position for you,” Laura leaned against the wall, head down, hands in her pockets, looking super chill.
Elizabeth saw a steadiness in Laura.
Maybe it was her age, or the fact that Laura was a mom now. Whatever she did, she had this weird sense of calm.
“No, I just don’t want to be in this line of work anymore. I only got to the hospital cause my grandma insisted. Elizabeth said, trying to sound casual, I’m the daughter of the Percy Family. Do I need to do this?”
Laura raised an eyebrow.
Elizabeth nodded seriously. “For real, I don’t need the money, and I don’t wanna serve others.”
Laura stayed quiet..
Dr. Dixon, I wish you all the best,” Elizabeth said to Laura.

Laura kept silent.
Amanda eventually agreed to let Elizabeth go.
But what Elizabeth didn’t know
was
that it
if the deputy director position wasn’t meant for Laura from the start, it would stay vacant.
Her leaving just meant one less rival for Laura,
Elizabeth wrote a letter to the hospital recommending Laura. Whether Laura could get promoted in the future would be up to her
own skills.
When Elizabeth got home, she saw Celine sitting on the sofa with a stern face.
Next to her, Declan was sipping tea, watching Elizabeth like he was enjoying a show.
Regarding Elizabeth’s resignation, it seemed like everyone except Celine was pretty stoked.
Declan thought Elizabeth could finally take over his company!
Rose thought Elizabeth could finally learn design from her!
Grant thought Elizabeth could finally go fishing and gardening with him.
But then everyone heard Elizabeth say, “I plan to go abroad.”
The few people who were watching the show all widened their eyes and asked Elizabeth, “What are you gonna do?”
Elizabeth replied, “Go abroad for further studies.”
“It’s one thing if you don’t want to run my company, but now you wanna leave? Declan was furious.
Elizabeth awkwardly said, “Dad, I’m really not into the company.”
“Then are you not into design either?” Rose immediately followed up
Elizabeth nodded.
Grant silently raised his hand, like, she didn’t even wanna stay home and chill?
Celine’s expression was complicated.
Elizabeth, are you in a bad mood ‘cause of your divorce from Alexander? My advice is, don’t act on impulse. Rose gently held Elizabeth’s hand.
Elizabeth felt even more helpless.
She wasn’t sad at all about divorcing Alexander.
If she were sad, she wouldn i have gotten divorced.
