Noel summarized what Mrs. Turner said in the lounge for Wayne.
âDid you take care of this?â Wayne asked coldly.
âYes, I informed the receptionist that neither Mrs. Turner nor her daughter will be permitted to enter the company from today on.â
âGood. Iâll discuss the groupâs shares at the board meeting at the end of the month, and Iâll also formally propose that Rachel Turner be removed from the board. Tell the other directors about it; I need their approval.â
Noel sighed and said, âBut | doubt weâll be able to persuade Mr. Turner because sheâs his niece. Miss Turner might make a big fuss if we remove her from her position.â
Wayne rolled his eyes and commented, âShe rarely attends board meetings. However, she has been spreading rumors in the group with several board members since we acquired Gabriel Group. Not only that, but Iâm going to purchase Shirley Gabrielâs shares.â
âWe discussed it before, and you said you wanted to take your time.â
Wayne nodded, âYes, but | can begin implementing the plan right away. She believes she can do whatever she wants because she owns 20% of the company. But Iâm going to show her that the company is not her playground.â
Noel nodded in shock. He hadnât expected Wayne to go ahead with his plan just for Anna. He thought to himself, Who on earth is Anna? Ineed to ask Gabe about this. 414 Heâs Just My Ex After returning to the hospital, Anna took blood samples in the lab office. Nancy asked, âTell me, are you serious? What exactly did you say to Joshua? He told his mother said he thought | was his soul mate as the only option for marriage.â
âNancy, have you had a lot of free time recently? Stop coming here to discuss personal matters with me. If my director sees me chatting with you, Iâd be in big trouble.â Anna expressed her resignation to Nancy, who sat next to her.
âIt doesnât matter. I must make this clear to you today. If you like Joshua, you should tell him the truth and go on a date with him âMy goodness, donât have a thing for him. I did everything you told me to do.â
âI donât believe you! If thatâs the case, why did he insist on having their housekeeper bring me food?â
Anna cut her off, âWhat? His housekeeper? | thought that was...â
Before Anna could finish, a nurse pushed open the door, alarmed, and asked, âWhere is Dr. Brown? Oh, hi, Dr. Moore.â
âShe just left for a parent-teacher conference for her child,â Anna explained.
The nurse said, âSomeone was yelling outside, and | assumed it was a patient. She kept mentioning that she was looking for one of the lab doctors. I asked who that was, and she said she had no idea. So I came here to tell you.â
Nancy got to her feet and yelled angrily, âTheyâre insane! I saw on the news the other day that a patient was causing a commotion in a hospital. Come on, Anna, letâs go take a look!â
When the nurse saw Nancy, she exclaimed, âGee, thank you.â â414 Heâs Just My Ex Nancy was a well-known badass at the hospital and was good at dealing with unreasonable patients. Furthermore, she had never met a competitor before. Because Anna was concerned that Nancy would make a big deal out of it, she stood up as well.
She noticed two nurses stopping a struggling woman.
The woman shouted, âWhy are you stopping me? Get your hands off me! | swear to you, Iâm just looking for a doctor! That slut flirted with my boyfriend!â
âIâm sorry, maâam, but you canât go in there. Please tell me her name, and Iâll go get herâ
âI have no idea what her name is! She recently visited the Carousel Group for a medical checkup. Sheâs completely shameless!â
The womanâs voice was harsh and mean, and she sounded enraged.
Nancy turned back and asked Anna, âThe Carousel Group?â
Anna looked at that insane woman in the corridor. The woman was always dressed in a Chanel suit to demonstrate her wealth and carrying a limited edition handbag. When she realized it was her stepmotherâs niece, her cousin Rachel, Anna was taken aback.
Rachel was shocked when she caught sight of Anna. She asked, âAnna, what are you doing here? I didnât come here to see you.
Iâm looking for a doctorâ
She was about to finish her sentence when she noticed Annaâs white robe. Her face became pale, and she asked, wide-eyed, âIs that you? Are you the doctor who visits the Carousel Group every day to see Wayne?â
Everyone began talking and said, âWhat? Every day, Dr. Gabriel visits the president of the Carousel Group?â âThatâs the first time that Iâve heard of it.â
âIâve been hearing about it for quite some time! She had gone there 414 Heâs Just My Ex earlier to perform medical exams on new employees.â
Those few doctors and nurses all started gossiping and talking while looking back and forth at Rachel and Anna. Their job was boring, so they wouldnât let go of this juicy gossip. Furthermore, it was connected to Anna, the hospitalâs famous beauty.
Anna felt embarrassed and wanted to leave right away. She immediately explained to Rachel, âDonât get me wrong. Iâm a doctor, so | should be responsible for my patients. Me and Wayne are just old friends, and thereâs nothing between us. Donât make a big deal out of it.â
Rachel appeared to be offended. She growled, âThatâs enough! Everyone knows you were supposed to be Wayneâs wife, and heâs been thinking of you all along! Why didnât you tell me you came back here? No wonder your son bought you a gift the other day!â
Hearing that, everyone was discussing it more enthusiastically.
Seeing that, Anna snorted, âSince you know all about it, why are you still bothering me here? Also, Iâve never heard Wayne mention to me once that youâre his girlfriend. Donât you find it ridiculous that you accused me of seducing your âboyfriendâ when heâs not even your boyfriend?â
Rachel yelled angrily, âItâs none of my business whether Wayne agrees to be my boyfriend or not, Anna! Iâm not going to be involved with you any longer!â
The doctors and nurses all looked at Anna. Nancy gave her a thumbs up and said, âAwesome! Itâs no surprise you never told me who your husband is. So heâs the richest man in town.â
âAnna, please treat us to dinner!â
Anna felt as if all of her money had vanished. She and Wayne had broken up, but she hadnât expected him to have such an impact on her.
Anna said, âSo, Iâll buy you guys dinner. Are you available?â 414 Heâs Just My Ex âWe can have take-out delivered to the hospital cafeteria. We can take turns eating.â
âHow rich do you think | am?â
âYour husband is a rich man. We want to experience how being rich feelsâ
âHeâs not my husband, heâs my ex.â
âYes, we want rich exes too. By the way, why donât you treat us to some more dessert?
