Chapter 336 Love Rival

Bella raised her eyebrow. "Do you need anything else? Didn't you say you were busy? You just wasted your time

trying to discipline me." Lana stomped her feet and stormed off.

Bella felt a wave of exhaustion. She had never had any issues with Lana. It was all because of Ethan's feelings

for her, and it just so happened that Lana had feelings for Ethan.

Hence, Lana had categorized her as her love rival by default. No wonder people always claimed that love rivals

tended to treat each other with special hostility. That did indeed seem to be the case. Suddenly, the head of the

emergency department cinto the lounge and said, "Bella, the entire department is so busy now. How can

you hole yourself up in the lounge? Where's your team spirit?" Lana had just left the lounge, yet the department

head was here now. It was obvious Lana had snitched on her.

She wanted to explain herself, but the second she opened her mouth, the department head waved her off,

showing no desire to listen to her. "Alright, that's enough. Go and do your things now." Bella gritted her teeth

and left without saying another word.

Right now, she felt like her legs didn't belong to her as they felt more like lead. Each step was extremely tiring.

Not many people were able to handle such a demanding job, but when was life ever easy? Once the group of

patients with food poisoning had settled down, the department returned to its usual calm state. A group of

doctors lay in the lounge, feeling too exhausted to even move. One of the doctors couldn't stand his hunger

anymore and suggested that they order takeout. After eating, those who had ended their shifts could leave while

those on duty would stay. Everyone placed their orders, except for Bella, who sat still.

When the person in charge of ordering asked what she'd like, Lana interjected and said, "She's not used to

takeout, so we can go ahead and order without her. She's wealthy and different from us regular folks." The

others, unaware of the situation, believed Lana. Hence, one of them joked with Bella and said, "Alright, we'll eat

on our own. You can take a break and grab something nice for dinner after your shift." Ethan turned to look at

Lana unhappily before walking up toward Bella. "Since | don't have another shift tonight, let's go and have dinner

together."

Lana's expression darkened. "Ethan, are you really going out of your way to please her?"

For the first tsince he worked here, Ethan, the shy and patient man, lost his temper in front of his colleagues.

"Lana, have you had enough? Why

are you targeting Bella? Has she ever done anything to provoke you? We're all in the sdepartment, so why

can't we look out for each

other?"

The entire lounge was filled with silence as the rest of the group did not understand what was happening.

Lana felt humiliated as she ran out of the lounge with teary eyes.

Someone murmured to Ethan, "What was that about? Why are you being so harsh to a woman? Everyone.in the

department knows Lana likes you. Don't humiliate her like that and gochase after her."

Ethan refused, "All of you know that she likes me, so I'm sure all of you also know that I've rejected her. only see

her as my colleague. You can chase after her if you want, but I'm heading off now."

Bella didn't leave with Ethan as leaving with him now would be no different than announcing to the whole world

that there was something going on between them.

The two of them left at different times, but Bella did not expect to see Ethan waiting for her at the side of the

road.

She walked up to him and greeted, "Why are you still here? I'm going hto cook now as work has been

exhausting today, and | could use a good sleep."

Ethan lowered his head as he said softly, "I'm sorry. Lana has been treating you that way because of me."

Bella sighed. "It's alright. | understand. | just want to do my job and enjoy my life. Let's go back. It's quite cold

outside."

She thought Ethan would be able to hear the indirect refusal in her words, but unfortunately, he was too naive

and didn't manage to grasp the true meaning behind her words.
