Rising from the Ashes (Andrew and Lauren)

----

Chapter 1394 Thomas let out a vague grunt and turned his head away. From the look of it, the most promising leader of Blumedale Hospital seemed utterly drained, like he had not slept a wink all night. As for his prized apprentice, Jared, there was only one way to describe him-like someone mourning the dead. When Andrew glanced his way, Jared immediately looked elsewhere. Right now, he did not even have the courage to meet Andrew's eyes.

He could not help it- Andrew's skills had completely outshone even his own mentor, Thomas, so what chance did a junior like him stand? Especially when even Mosby, the reigning champion of the Grand Medical Summit, had fallen to Andrew. Since last night, Jared had spent hours figuring out how on earth Andrew was this ridiculously good.

Sitting at the head of the room, Malcolm chuckled warmly and said, "Andy, you're one of us now-come, ---- have a seat." Andrew did not stand on ceremony and took the open seat. He asked casually, "So, Dr. Goddard, may I ask why you called me here today?" Malcolm smiled and replied, "Oh, nothing too serious. You just won the Grand Medical Summit title, and Blumedale Hospital wants to show our appreciation with a little reward." Andrew grinned.

"Well, if it's a reward, I won't be shy about it!" Malcolm waved him off with a laugh. "It's nothing too fancy, probably won't even catch your eye. This time, I mainly wanted to get your thoughts. I'd like to know if you'd be open to taking up a position here at Blumedale Hospital." Andrew already had a feeling this would come up, so his reaction was rather mild. "I appreciate the offer, but I've got way too much on my plate right now.

It's just not a good time." Malcolm tried to persuade him, saying, "No worries. You ---- could just take an honorary role. We wouldn't expect you to be here every day-just lend a hand when we're facing a really tough case." Andrew raised an eyebrow with a smile. "So, what kind of position are you thinking of offering me, Dr. Goddard? Malcolm glanced at Thomas, then said with a grin, "How about Deputy Chief?

I figure the role of Deputy Chief at Blumedale Hospital should be appealing enough for someone like you, Andy." Andrew feigned surprise. "Whoa,I don't know about that A title like that at such a majoro institution? That's a big

им

responsibility. I'm not sure I could handle it." Thomas finally could not hold his tongue anymore." Well then, Dr. Lloyd, since you admit it might be too much for now... noveldrama

How about this-why don't you just join as a Head of Department for the time being?" Andrew gave a relaxed smile. "Nope. Not happening." No. one expected Andrew to be that blunt, and Thomas' expression instantly turned sour. "Then what position ---- are you expecting, Dr. Lloyd?" Andrew replied with a question of his own. "Before I answer that, may I ask-Dr. Bozzelli,

what's your current position at

Blumedale?" Thomas let out a sharp huff. "Isn't it obvious? I'm the Deputy Chief.

One step below Dr. Pearce himself." Andrew kept smiling. "That's interesting Since Dr. Bozzelli, my former opponent, is holding the Deputy Chief title... Shouldn't I, the Grand Physician, be offered a position higher than yours? Thomas' face flushed crimson, and he snapped, " Andrew, you-"

However, Andrew cut him off with a sarcastic laugh. " Relax, I'm not here to fight you for a title, Dr. Bozzelli. I don't plan on joining Blumedale Hospital at all. But, Dr.

Bozzelli-you do need to hand someone over to me." Thomas secretly breathed a sigh of relief. If Andrew was not coming to Blumedale, then at least his own influence remained intact.
