Contract Marriage Devil's Trap

Chapter 25: One-Sided Love

When Isabella arrived at the hospital, she was mentally prepared to be lectured by Drew.

It turned out that Drew said nothing and treated her as usual.

Even the head of the gynecology department called to say he had received the document.

However, Isabella clearly remembered she had left the document in one of the offices in the gynecology department due to Maxwell and Dolcie's affairs.

After thinking for a while, she found the only explanation would be the doctor on duty had helped her bring it over.

Thinking of this, she stopped pondering, perked up, and followed Drew for their daily ward routine.

"How is your preparation for the examination going, Bella?"

Walking beside Isabella, Drew asked in a gentle, soothing voice, which was like a spring breeze that refreshed the air.

Looking up at him, Isabella smiled faintly.

"Don't worry, Doctor Ross.I'm working very hard and won't let anyone snatch the position as your assistant away!"

Although the other two competitors were also outstanding, she believed she wasn't that bad and would get the position in the end.

"Haha...It's good that you're confident.I was worried you were too stressed because you seemed to be in low spirits these days."

Drew looked at Isabella's confident expression and was kind of relieved.

Ever since working in the hospital, Isabella had always been an outstanding doctor.

Therefore, Drew couldn't help but be worried when he saw her not being her usual self in the last two days.

It seemed he had overthought.

Hearing Drew's words, Isabella was surprised that her absentmindedness and low spirits were so obvious that they had actually been noticed by the others.

After checking on the patients and ensuring that all of them were in good condition, Isabella was about to carry on her duty when Drew called her, "There's a colleague party after work.How about you come with us?"

Maxwell popped into her head the moment she heard Drew's suggestion.

If she went back late tonight, Maxwell would probably find her trouble again.Just as she wanted to refuse, Drew didn't give her the chance.

"I'll take this as a yes then.Wait for me at the entrance after work, I'll take you there.It's important to keep a cordial relationship with colleagues too, but you've never attended any of our gatherings."

When Drew saw Isabella's expression, he knew what she wanted to say.

Hence, he spoke before her without hesitation.

After hearing Drew's words, Isabella nodded in agreement as she knew people would be gossiping about her if she declined the invitation again.

Before getting off work, she changed her clothes and wanted to inform Sharp Mansion about her plan tonight, but her phone had run out of battery and she couldn't make a call now.

"Hurry up, Bella.Don't let Doctor Ross wait for too long."

A colleague's voice rang from the door.

While replying to the colleague, Isabella put her phone into her bag.

Anyway, she was just a nobody to the Sharps.

No one would care even if she went back late.

When Isabella reached the hospital's entrance, Drew was already waiting for her in his car.
