The CEO’s Ex-Wife Is A Famous Doctor By LiLhyz Chapter 36

Chapter 36: Are You Married?

Evan’s heart swelled with pride, seeing this different side of Shantelle. This had always been her dream, and she finally achieved it.

His ex-wife was now a doctor.

Shantelle looked more sophisticated. She was confident, and she commanded the nurses with conviction. She moved around the emergency room like it had been her home for many years. Immediately, he wondered, ‘How long has she been working for this hospital?”

Evan felt heaviness in his chest. Seeing her again, all the years of longing came rushing back. So many years had been lost, and many efforts had gone to waste. Who would have thought that he would still get this chance? Now here she was, right in front of him.

Recognizing the changes in Shantelle, Evan wondered what other changes had happened in her life. Could Shantelle be single? How will he approach her? As a friend? Or should he pour his heart out?

Finally, when their eyes met, he thought this was his opportunity. She stilled and studied him for a second. She recognized him, and he felt it deep in his bones. Evan was about to approach her, but sadly, she was back to attending to her patient’s needs.

Thus, Evan remained rooted to the floor, his eyes never leaving her.

After what felt like an eternity, he saw how she was walking his way. Shantelle stepped out of the

emergency room. He tried to meet her eyes, but she was looking for someone else.

“May I know who are the relatives of Mister Gonzales?” She asked. Her voice seemed angelic in his ears.

“Here! I am his mother,” said a Hispanic woman, who was coincidentally behind Evan.

Immediately, he turned his attention to the patient’s mother. The closer he was to the woman, the closer he could get to Shantelle.

Shantelle ignored him and merely spoke to the woman. “My name is Doctor Shant. I am a surgeon at this hospital. Your son has massive internal bleeding in his chest walls due to blunt force trauma. We need to operate on him -”

The mother wept. Saying, “Oh, my god! We don’t have enough insurance coverage. How are we going to pay for this?”

That took Shantelle aback, but she assured the woman, “Misses Gonzales, our hospital can arrange suitable payment terms after the operation. For now, your son needs immediate medical attention. So you know, the operation will only require a minimum invasion-”

“Is there any other way?” The woman said. “You don’t understand. We are drowning in debt. My husband. had just recently been to surgery, that’s why-”

“Mrs. Gonzales, our hospital will arrange something for you. Please give us the authorization so we can proceed with the operation. Your son needs it urgently,” Shantelle urged.

Evan was somewhat irritated. What could be more critical than saving this woman’s son that she would think twice about agreeing to the operation? More importantly, he felt the woman was dragging Shantelle from doing her job. He did the impossible, saying, “I’ll offer you a charity case. In return, I hope your son can consider working for me.”
