Chased By My Demon CEO

"I have to go back to the hospital," Viona said with a smile when she realized it was almost dark.

"Are you working night shift?" asked Amina from the counter.​​

"Yes," Viona replied, waving her hand.

On foot, Viona left for the hospital where she worked. When she arrived at the hospital, many nurses and doctors greeted her warmly. Viona was considered one of those rare talents. 

As a young surgeon, Viona never lost a patient in every surgery she performed. Many hospitals offered her a higher salary to transfer to their place, but she always refused for reasons that most people did not understand.

"Hello, Doctor," greeted a nurse of an Indian descendant.

"Hello," Viona replied kindly.

She walked with other medical staff who were part of the night shift to the locker for changing her attired. While working at the hospital, Viona never skipped a day. 

Even on her days off, she would still go to the hospital to just check on her patients. People assumed she did it because she didn't have anywhere else to go, as she didn't have a social life.

"Hey," Dr. Ashley to Viona, who was changing into the white doctor's gown.

"I thought you didn't come Ash," said Viona, smiling thinly.

"You know what kind of department head my boss is. It's really impossible for me to skip tonight's event," grumbled Doctor Ashley lamenting her fate.

"Don't complain, let's go to the meeting room. I heard there was a serious incident yesterday at the hospital," said Viona to Dr. Ashley who was still standing beside Viona's locker lazily.

"Okay," said Dr. Ashley as he walked behind her.

"I heard that the new section chief is still young," whispered Doctor Rachel, who had also arrived in the hall.

"I wonder why Rachel was able to come," said Doctor Ashley when she saw Rachel.

"She's a doctor, so it's only natural for her to come, Ash," Viona whispered to Ashley.

Soon the whispers that were heard in the hall for doctors to hold meetings suddenly became silent, when a hospital director walked in along with a man behind him.

"Good evening to all the doctors who have made the time to come tonight. I know some of you just arrived the day after coming home from assignments in Ireland for two months. I want to thank you for your service and tell you that I am proud of all of you," said Professor Mario in a firm voice.

There was applause by other senior doctors as a form of appreciation to the doctors who had just returned from their overseas duties.

"I would like to introduce Professor Franklin as the new head of the surgical division," said Professor Mario introducing the new staff.

"Please go up to the podium, Professor Frank," added Professor Mario.

The owner of the name immediately walked up to the podium to meet directly with the thirty doctors in front of him officially.

"Hello, good evening, everyone. You can call me Doctor Franklin," Professor Franklin said loudly.

Viona, who had been focusing on reading the report, suddenly raised her face when she heard Doctor Franklin's familiar voice.

"Justin," Viona muttered to herself when she saw the man she met this afternoon standing on the podium and introducing hmself by the name Franklin.

Doctor Franklin smiled slightly when he saw Viona's surprise, apparently he had seen Viona since she first entered with Professor Mario.

"Since we are a team, I hope you can introduce yourself to me," asked Doctor Franklin in a soft voice as he glanced at Viona, who was still shocked.

"Oh, why did it turn out like this," said Viona to herself.
