Chapter 5

Lilian's words left everyone stunned. All eyes turned to me, filled with sympathy.

But the one who stood up first was Dr. Phoenix, my closest friend and colleague, "You're seriously going to fire Lucas? He's the star doctor of this hospital! Most of our patients are wealthy and high-profile, ninety percent of them came here because of him. If you fire him, are you out of your mind?"

As soon as Dr. Phoenix spoke, other colleagues who were close to me chimed in, "Yeah, Director, you can't fire Dr. Kentwood! He's got multiple surgeries scheduled next month, who's going to do them if he's gone?" Everyone was talking over each other.

Lilian's expression wavered. She knew exactly how important I was to this hospital. Without me, her small private OB-GYN hospital wouldn't have survived in the capital.

She glanced at Barry, then looked back at me. Her tone was full of condescension, "Lucas, I'll say it one more time, apologize to Barry. I'll consider not firing you."

I heard her and sneered again.

Barry frowned at her words, "Lilian, you're really going to let him off with just an apology? My mouth still hurts, you know!" A grown man whining in public, everyone shot him looks of disdain.

Lilian gave him a soothing look.

I watched them and laughed coldly before standing up. In her smug gaze, I said clearly, "Apologize? In your dreams! No need for you to fire me. I quit!" With that, I left the meeting room in big strides while Lilian stared after me in disbelief.

Back in my office, I started packing. I saw the wedding photo of me and Lilian on my desk. This time, without hesitation, I threw it into the trash.

That's when Lilian barged into my office. She saw the photo in the trash and screamed, "Lucas, are you crazy? What are you doing!"

Even though the trash can was filled with junk, she didn't hesitate to reach in and pull the photo out, "How could you throw away our wedding photo!"

She kept yelling at me, "Why are you throwing a tantrum again? I just asked you to apologize to Barry! I told you he was just joking! And there's nothing going on between me and Barry …" she explained impatiently.

I ignored her and handed her two documents, "A resignation letter and a divorce agreement. Sign them, Lilian."

I gave her the papers I'd prepared earlier. Her words froze in her mouth.

She grabbed the papers from my hand and then slapped me across the face, "You want a divorce?"

"I told you, there's nothing between me and Barry! Just because I'm having his baby? Just because I asked you to apologize? When did you become so petty? You're not acting like a man at all!" She went off on me, like I was the one who betrayed her.

I burst out laughing at her accusations, "If that's how you want to spin it, fine. But I can't accept my wife carrying another man's child and I won't tolerate your repeated cheating. That's why I'm divorcing you. Sign it."
