From beginning to end, there wasn't a single kind word.
Mia Lawson was berated relentlessly and cried for a long time in the dean's office.
In the end, the dean got annoyed and dismissed her with a single word, "fired."
Crying and wailing, truly annoying!
Mia felt both aggrieved and relieved, seeing the dean's face turn thoroughly dark, she dared not linger.
After leaving the office, she called Neal Thompson and then went to the hospital with a dispirited demeanor to pack up some things, getting ready to leave.
At dusk.
Neal Thompson took leave to see her off.
"How did you get fired?"
When she met her at the hospital entrance, Neal Thompson frowned deeply, inquiring in a disgruntled tone.
"Because," Mia's sobbing broke out again, and tears flowed down, "it was all because of that Flossie Wright incident. The dean thought it looked bad and asked me to leave."
"Flossie Wright!"
Neal Thompson's face changed, his teeth clenched with anger as he uttered the name.
