The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor

Chapter 23: Never Coming Back

Two buttons on Evan’s shirt were undone. He had difficulty breathing and had to open part of his shirt. He could not believe his eyes. A new doctor was now occupying doctor Scott’s clinic!

“This can’t be happening.” Evan raked his fingers through his hair and looked around. Seeing several secretaries walk by and others entertaining patients, he asked, “Does anybody know where Doctor Scott moved? Anybody?”

“Anybody?!” He asked again. Then, his gaze fell on the secretary across Doctor’s Scott’s previous clinic. He walked inside the room and asked the woman, “You! Do you know where Doctor Scott moved? What about his secretary? Do you know how I can reach her?”

“I’m sorry, Mister Thompson, but Eana did not say where they were moving,” the woman said. “Eana was still here last week, finalizing documents for Doctor Scott, but I believe she also left town.‘

Eana was Doctor’s Scott’s long–time secretary. Evan was convinced she would know everything. He asked, “Do you have her number? Please. I need to call her.”

Evan got Eana’s number, and he quickly made the phone call. He called three times until Eana ultimately answered. Evan said, “Eana, this is Evan Tho –”

The next thing he heard was a busy tone. When he tried calling again, his call went to voicemail. It was clear to him that Eana had blocked his number too. From where he was, he tried calling William and Eleanor Scott, but it was the same. All his calls would only route to voicemail.

Desperate to find answers, Evan went to the hospital’s administration building. From there, he spoke to the hospital head. “Doctor Jacob, did Doctor Scott resign?”

“Yes, he gave only one month’s notice. It was a struggle on our part, but he was very adamant about moving,” Doctor Jacob responded.

“Do you know where they had relocated?” Evan sought.

Doctor Jacob sighed. He responded, “No, Mister Thompson, but even if we knew, that information is private –
