Bye-Bye Jerk, Hello Mr. Right by Rosie Steppe

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, time to go!” The head nurse came over 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 I 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 some things 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 later,” he said.

“No need. I’ll drive myself. That way, I 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.
