Jenny attempted to introduce potential partners to Gilbert in the following days, but her efforts were in vain as Gilbert had no intention of meeting any of them. Eventually, Jenny understood how resolute he was and decided to stop wasting her energy.

As the wedding day crept closer, Jenny had to focus on her wedding preparations as there was only a month left. However, there wasn’t much for her to do since Alec had already taken care of everything. All she needed to do was to try on wedding dresses, so she had it easy.

At the hospital, Jenny resumed her work. She was in the middle of organizing her patient’s records after finishing her rounds when she was called to the director’s office.

“You wanted to see me?” Jenny asked as she entered the office. The director immediately stood up to greet her.

“Please have a seat, Dr. Walter.” The director was very polite toward her, which made Jenny feel uneasy. However, she didn’t pay much attention to it as she understood why he acted that way.

After she sat down, the director got straight to the point and said, “Dr. Walter, there’s a hospital abroad inviting us for a conference. The neurosurgery department has selected you as the representative. What do you think?”
