My Darling, My Dearest novel Chapter 303

Time went by quickly in Rachel's new life.

Sometimes, she dreamed of her past and Jack. She woke up crying in the middle of the night many times, but she never thought of going back home.

Every time she couldn't sleep, she would just read her medical book and soon forget all the distracting thoughts.

One year had passed.

Like the usual, Lucas took Rachel's book from her and asked, "Would you like to take a seat first?"

Rachel nodded and pointed to a lawn outside the school building. "Let's sit there."

When they were already seated, she asked first, "Lucas, are you going to ask me if I'm going to stay?"

Today was their last day of school.

However, before their class ended, their professor, Mack said something so tempting.

He said that he would choose two students from their class that would be his apprentices in the hospital where he worked.

She was very much interested in his proposal. If she could work for Mack, she would definitely learn a lot of medical skills from him.

Seeing how her eyes lit up, Lucas already knew what to do, so he asked, "Do you want to stay?"

She tilted her head and looked at him with a smile. "It's not actually a question whether I want to stay or not. The real question is if I can make it. But I will try my best to get that chance. How about you?"

Lucas shook his head and looked into the distance. He answered, "No, I can't stay anymore. I need to go back and see someone."

Out of curiosity, she asked again, "Iris?"

She winked at him and smiled happily.

Although she no longer expected to have a chance in love, she still hoped that everyone around her could have a happy love life.

After all, romance really brought happiness to people's lives.

Scratching his head, he replied dotingly, "Yes. It's been a year. It's time for me to go back."

He stood up, patted the grass on his trousers, and reached out his hand to pull Rachel. "Are you going to the library later? I need to go back and pack my things. I booked the earliest flight tomorrow. I'll call you when I get home."

"Yeah, I'll go to the library later. Well, have a nice trip."

It was a brief farewell between the two of them. Although she couldn't help feeling sad, she should still wish him the best.

In the past three days, Rachel had been reviewing until two o'clock in the morning for the finals. So now, as soon as her head touched the pillow, she immediately fell into slumber.

Finally, Mack's exam was done.

Although she was confident that she did well in the test, a feeling of nervousness was still there while waiting for the result. The next evening, she finally received an email from Mack, informing her to report to him in the hospital tomorrow.

She got up early the next morning, dressed up, and put on a light makeup. She arrived at Mack's office on time, together with Allen, an American doctor who was three years older than her.

They had met once, and she immediately had a bad impression on him. Mack had assigned them to work together in one project before, but things didn't go well because of his conceitedness.

Mack looked at their resumes again and said, "Although this is an internship, both of you have already worked as doctors for several years, so don't expect me to be kind to you. I won't be treating you like fresh graduates.

You are not allowed to make mistakes, understand?

If you think you can't do it, you are free to leave now."

He looked at Allen for a while, then his gaze shifted to Rachel as if he was scrutinizing them.

Allen immediately took a step forward to show off his determination. "I will do my best, Dr. Mack."

Rachel just nodded as a sign that she didn't have any objections either.

"That's good, then." Mack stood up and walked out of his office, gesturing for them to follow. "I'll take you around first."

Throughout her medical career, Rachel had already worked with a lot of doctors and professors in the university and hospital. Each of them had their own methods of teaching. However, Mack was the most severe.

On their first day, he tested their corresponding knowledge by immediately letting them check a patient respectively.

It had been an hour of tension for her. Even now that she was already sitting in the lounge, she could still feel her hands sweating.

Apparently, she had to work harder to qualify as his apprentice.

Thus that night, when Lea sent her a video call request, she rejected it and immediately sent her an apology. After a short explanation on WeChat, she focused all her attention to her book.

When she arrived at the hospital on the second day, she was instantly waylaid by a nurse before she could even change into her white gown. "Dr. Rachel, a patient with heart disease is in the emergency room now, but Dr. Mack hasn't arrived yet."

Seeing the urgency on the nurse's expression, she nodded and said, "I'll go and check the patient."

A man was lying on a stretcher beside the aisle. With eyes slightly shut, his face looked bloodless. If it wasn't for the heartbeat monitor beside him, anyone would think that he was already dead.
