Chapter 36
Sienna spotted Wendy approaching.
Stanley and Jessica noticed her, too. Jessica was taken aback. “Wendy, what are you doing here?”
Sienna looked at Wendy with obvious disdain. “Wendy, I’ll make you pay for what you did with Nathan last night! Now, just leave. We’re all waiting for Dr. Ceylan, and we don’t have time to waste on you!”
Stanley’s gaze landed on Wendy, his sharp brow furrowing slightly. Though he didn’t say anything, it was clear he wasn’t welcoming her presence. He felt that she was here to cause trouble.
Wendy wasn’t offended. She simply found their reactions amusing. She gave them a playful smile, then winked at Stanley before
saying, “I know you’re waiting for Dr. Ceylan.”
Jessica snapped, “Then why don’t you just leave?”
Wendy straightened her back, smiling confidently in front of the three of them. “Actually, I’m the one you’re all waiting for-”
Before she could finish, someone else appeared. “Wendy, what are you doing here?”
Wendy turned around to see Trish Crone.
Wendy’s grandmother, Edith Richards, had three sons–Jerry, Harry, and Archer Crone. Trish was Archer’s daughter.
Trish was exceptionally accomplished–her academic background surpassed even Jessica’s. She held a medical doctorate, spent
two years abroad, and had participated in major surgeries. She was more ambitious and self–assured than Jessica.
Both Jessica and Trish were the prized daughters of the Crone family. They had one thing in common–they both looked down on
Wendy.
Jessica raised an eyebrow, “Trish, what are you doing here?”
Trish walked up to Stanley, offering him a confident smile. “Mr. Hawk, hello. Dr. Ceylan sent me.”
Wendy blinked. ‘I sent her?‘
“I’m Dr. Ceylan’s assistant, here to assist her with Jessica’s heart treatment,” Trish continued.
Η
Wendy’s memory clicked. Samuel had mentioned this to her last night. He told her about an assistant eager to gain experience,
and now it made sense–this assistant was Trish.
What a small world.
When Jessica heard that Trish was Dr. Ceylan’s assistant, she couldn’t help but smile. “Trish, it’s been two years. I didn’t expect
you’d be Dr. Ceylan’s assistant by the time you returned.”
Sienna, always the gossip, turned to Trish. “Trish, is Dr. Ceylan a man or a woman? What do they look like? I’m so curious!”

Trish’s face lit up with admiration. “Dr. Ceylan is a legend in our medical world that we all admire. For years, I’ve worked hard to
get close to Dr. Ceylan, and now I’m the doctor’s assistant. But I still haven’t had the chance to meet the doctor in person.”
Sienna was impressed. “Trish, that’s incredible! The Crone family’s daughters are truly impressive, except for…” She glanced at
Wendy with an expression of disdain. “Wendy, how can you be so lacking? You’re from the Crone family too, but the difference between you, Trish, and me is enormous.”
Slenna exaggeratedly spread her arms wide.
Trish looked at Wendy with a cold expression. “Wendy, I’ve heard about your situation. You should divorce Mr. Hawk and go back
to the countryside. Don’t embarrass the Crone family any further.”
Jessica chuckled. “Trish, Wendy dropped out of school when she was 16. What do you expect
Wendy couldn’t respond to that.
her to do?
Stanley, unfazed, glanced at Trish and asked, “Where’s the doctor? Dr. Ceylan should have been here by now. We had a 9:00 AM
appointment.”
