Stubborn Hearts

"When I ran into my ex-husband again, he had just been appointed the new hospital director.In the past, manipulated by my so-called best friend, he misunderstood my sincerity again and again. Because of that woman, he eventually walked out of our marriage.As the vice director, I managed to keep things strictly professional around him, right up until the end of the workday.That evening, the head nurse brought some news."Dr. Holloway, the Municipal Medical Association is hosting a networking banquet tonight. Leaders from all the major hospitals will be attending."The nurses immediately began discussing whether they could go. Just as I was about to agree, he appeared in the doorway without warning."Dr. Holloway, you can't go. You're staying tonight to handle the hospital restructuring plan."In full view of everyone, he summoned me into the director's office.Seated behind his desk, he said with an icy gaze, "Everyone else can go. You must stay. If I find out you show up at that banquet tonight, be prepared to deal with the consequences.""
