Chapter 231 Headache

The next morning, Everleigh tended to patients in her clinic the whole time.

"Take this prescription and pay first before you head to that window to receive your medicine.." Everleigh wrote a drug prescription and handed it to the intern next to her. "Take this woman there; she can't see very well." "Okay, Dr. Trevino."

After receiving the last patient in the morning, the nurse packed up and was ready to get off work. Meanwhile, she chatted casually with Everleigh about some interesting things that happened in the hospital that morning. Then, the sound of knocking came from the outside.

"I'm sorry, Dr. Trevino is off work now. Later at two o'clock in the afternoon... Dr. Smith?"

Everleigh looked up from behind the computer when she heard the nurse's voice. She happened to see Stainley coming in when the door was pushed open. "Why are you here?"

He was dressed in his white coat and the card that hung out of his right breast pocket said 'Deputy Director Of The Cardiology Department'. He flashed a gentle smile and said, "I'm off work, so I wanted to ask if you wanted to grab lunch at the cafeteria."

Then, Everleigh said with a smile, "You're so punctual. Did you count the seconds to get off work?"

"Shouldn't we be enthusiastic when it comes to eating?"

Meanwhile, the nurse said, "Dr. Trevino, you two chat. I'll take my leave first."

"Okay, go ahead."

After the nurse left, Everleigh also got up from behind her desk. "The cafeteria here isn't as good as the one in Jackson Hospital where you used to work. Are you used to the food?"

Stainley replied, "Do you think I'm that delicate? You should be grateful that you can have three meals a day on time in the cardiology department, right?"

"You're right. Let's go. There won't be any good dishes left if we're late."

The two of them went to the canteen together and sat down at an empty table after they bought some food.
