The Billionaire's Maid Bride novel Chapter 471

Hearing this, Dr. Thalia's brows immediately furrowed. She didn't expect her usually poised and well-mannered daughter to say something like that. She instantly turned stern. "Jade!"

Jade realized her words were a bit out of line, but she felt indignant. "Dylan, that's not true! You do like me!"

Dr. Dylan was a bit exasperated. “I was temporarily suspended because of a medical incident. I’m truly grateful for your help during that time. But the person I like is Allison, and it always has been. Dr. Jade, I'm sorry for any misunderstanding. I thought I've made myself clear. Please don't do this again."

This time, in front of both deans, Dr. Dylan utterly rejected Jade. The always pampered, smooth-sailing Jade took a nasty fall for the first time. She seemed unable to handle it, her cheeks swiftly turned scarlet, and a wave of shame swept over her. She then stood up, with her eyes welling up, and left.

Dr. Thalia's face turned sour. Her own daughter was rejected publicly.

The chaotic scene subsided.

Dr. Thalia glanced at Dr. Dylan. She seemed to want to say something but held back. He was an excellent doctor, arguably one of the best among the young doctors. Naturally, she held him in high regard, and was well aware of her daughter's ongoing crush on him.

Upon learning Dr. Dylan's affection for Allison, she tried advising her daughter, to no avail. Her daughter was always pouring her heart out to the wrong person. She didn't expect things to turn out this way.

Word traveled fast, and within hours, the whole hospital knew about Dr. Dylan's rejection of Jade, and Jade's relentless pursuit.

Dr. Thalia also felt a bit awkward. She glanced at Allison, not understanding how a woman from a regular family could overshadow her daughter.

Allison seemed to sense the scrutiny. That gaze was unabashedly sizing her up. Allison also raised her head to meet Dr. Thalia's eyes, not showing any hint of evasion.

Behind her shades, she met Dr. Thalia's gaze. Their eyes locked, and Dr. Thalia slightly furrowed her brows. This woman...

There was something about that gaze she couldn't quite figure out. This woman named Allison was definitely not as simple as she appeared.

The meeting room slowly emptied.

Allison stood up, looking at Dr. Dylan, and he was looking back at her.
