Marrying the Man in the Dark
Chapter 673 If Destiny Permits.
Dr. Keeples was left speechless.
He smiled resignedly and approved Cheriseâs resignation letter. âDr. Shaw, youâre still as optimistic as ever.â
âHowever, after this incident, Iâm afraid other hospitals may not be as welcoming if you resign from Lermille
Hospital.â After all, the consequences of this incident were severe.
Cherise responded with a smile. âThen perhaps I could consider a different career path. Iâm not bound to being a
doctor.â
âVery well.â Dr. Keeples took a deep breath and picked up his pen to write a letter of recommendation. âI have a
friend involved in medical research. His team is purely academic and doesnât engage in clinical work. They probably
wonât mind your past.â
He took out an envelope and wrote down the contact information. âYou should reach out to him. I believe he would
appreciate your talents.â
Cherise was momentarily stunned. She accepted the envelope and bowed in gratitude. âThank you.â
Dr. Keeples smiled sadly. âHonestly, it pains me to see you leave. Remember to reach out to my friend so that I
might see you again in the future.â
Cherise nodded. âI will.â
After some casual conversation with Dr. Keeples in his office, Cherise finally took her leave.
âDr. Shaw.â
Isaac stood in a corner outside the office, dressed in a white coat. He seemed to have been waiting for quite some
time.
Cherise frowned and glanced at his white coat. âYouâve returned to work already?â
Isaac blushed and smiled shyly. âDr. Keeples told me to come back quickly to adapt
Seeing Isaacâs bashful expression, Cherise smiled at him. âAll the bestâ
Dr. Shaw, I would like to talk to youâ
Isaac bit his hip and looked at Cherise because your right hand was agored
Tknow you didnt perform the surgery yourschi
secretly read your diagnosis betore
He frowned at Cherise. âDr. Shaw, why didnât you reveal the burn you suffered three years ago? Why would you
rather be misunderstood than speak about it?â
Cherise turned to Isaac and smiled slightly. âItâs the same as how you were willing to shoulder the blame for me and
stop Dr. Lane from bringing up the past. I, too, have someone very important to protect.â
The morning sun illuminated her face, casting her smile in a golden light. âI trust you to keep my secret.â
Isaac bit his lip. In truth, he did not want to keep Cheriseâs secret. He wanted to proclaim to everyone that they
were mistaken about her. He wanted everyone to know she could not perform surgery because she was genuinely
injured.
However, he looked into Cheriseâs earnest gaze and sighed deeply. âI will.â
He could not go against Cheriseâs wishes even if he knew the truth. After all, it was her matter.
Although he admired her and felt it was a shame, he could not reveal her secrets without her permission.
He took a deep breath and looked at Cherise again. âSo, Dr. Shaw, what are your plans for the future?â
âDr. Keeples suggested I pursue academic research, and I believe itâs a good fit. However, before finding a new job,
I want to take my children on a much-needed vacation to unwind.â
âOkay.â
Isaac kept looking at Cherise and seemed reluctant to part with her. âDr. Shaw, will we meet again?â
âWe probably will.â
Cherise looked at him, her eyes crinkled as she smiled. âIf destiny permits, we will inevitably meet again.â
