I Quit, Mr. Shaffer by Isabella Symons

Chapter 53

The light of the hospital’s corridor was blinding. A bunch of people gathered

Christopher’s eyes went wide. He couldn’t believe a secretary would be that

bold as to mock him.

Seth, who had a scornful expression, looked at Nicolas and cocked an

eyebrow.

A masked doctor came out of the operating theater. “I’m sorry. It took us all

we could to stabilize his condition. We’re calling a meeting and coming up

with a consensus.”

Amelia Gosling almost fell. A bunch of people held her up, but they couldn’t

comment much on the matter. All they could do was console her.
