After that incident, Viona was preoccupied with interviews by various media, both electronic and digital, which actually made Viona uncomfortable. She had rejected the reporter, but the hospital management actually supported Viona in conducting such an interview. Now Doctor Angel's fame really added a new burden for her. Helping people was a doctor's obligation. She hated to see it being exploited for commercial purposes.

"Doctor Angel," called a nurse to Viona, who was busy making reports.
"Yes, what's wrong?" asked Viona kindly.
"The director asked you to come to his office," replied the nurse politely.
"Okay, thank you," Viona said with a smile then closed her report.
Viona walked to the tenth floor, where the director's room was located. Her gut felt that something would happen and it made her wary. Either a coincidence or not, but her feelings were always right when she wanted to guess what will happen. When Viona was almost at the door of the director's room, several burly men were standing guard, Viona could see them carrying firearms.
KNOCK KNOCK
Viona knocked on the door slowly. Shortly, there was a reply from inside asking her to enter. When she entered, Viona saw many people sitting in the most luxurious room in the hospital. They were the hospital officials and several department heads. There was also the man whom she remembered so much. The respected senator was smiling at her.
"Have a seat, Doctor Angel," Professor Frank asked, smiling kindly.
"Thank you, Sir," Viona replied politely. She then sat in front of the senior top management members.
"I think we just get to the point," said Professor Mario, opening the conversation.
"As you already know, Doctor Angel, our hospital is the best hospital in this city, especially since you become a celebrity. Your popularity has increased the popularity of our hospital," Prof. Mario added with a sly smile. "Therefore, based on the input of several members of the boards of directors and professors, we have assigned you to be the special doctor for our VVIP patients in this hospital. It means you will only treat patients on the fourteenth and fifteenth floors."
"What do you mean, Sir?" asked Viona in surprise.
"Look, Doctor Angel. The position is not just for any doctor. Now you now have the opportunity to be in that position," replied Professor Mario with sparkling eyes.
Viona was silent. She was trying to understand the hospital director's words seriously. If she accepted the offer, it meant that she would not be able to become a normal doctor helping people in need. She would become a new business commodity in this hospital.
Viona smiled and then covered her face with both hands to wipe the tears that had accumulated in her eyes. She didn't want anyone to see her cry.
"I don't think it's a suitable position for me, Professor," said Viona while standing up.
"What do you mean, Doctor Angel?" Professor Louis, the deputy director, scolded her.
"Don't tell me you rejected the offer, Doctor Angel," shouted prof Mario quickly.
"I'm not rejecting it, but I don't think I deserve that position. There are many other doctors in this hospital who are more deserving," Viona said with a broad smile.
"Doctor Angel, you are just staff here, and you cannot refuse management orders!!!" shouted professor Mario suddenly.
"Sorry, Prof., my answer is still the same," said Viona without the slightest fear of facing the hospital director who was known for being money hungry.
"Well then, if you refuse to work on the VVIP floor, you better not work in this hospital," said Prof. Mario with a smirk.
Viona was shocked to hear the words that she didn't expect at all. Even everyone in the room was also shocked by the professor's words. Darren, who had been playing with his cellphone, even glared at Professor Mario because he couldn't believe what he had just heard.
With a big smile, Viona took off her ID card that was hanging from her pocket and put it on the table quickly.
"Since the day I was sworn in as a doctor, I have devoted my life to humanity regardless of the background of my patient. If I accepted your offer, I would be breaking my doctor's oath. Sorry, I can't do it. If there really is no place for me here, I'll happily tender my resignation," said Viona with an intimidating gaze towards professor Mario.
"Will you excuse me. I will get my resignation letter ready this afternoon. Good day!" Viona added quietly, then opened the door. She quickly walked out of the room.
The people in the room were shocked to hear Viona's words. They did not expect that Doctor Angel would reject the offer. For regular people, it was such a good offer, yet she dared to say no! Professor Frank also excused himself by saying he had a surgery scheduled. The truth was, he only wanted to catch up with Viona, who had gone away.
"What an arrogant woman," said Darren, enjoying his drink.
"I can't believe Doctor Angel will turn him down," murmured Professor Louis in disbelief.
"Don't worry, she must be joking. No one will refuse money in this world," hissed professor Mario slyly.
"Okay, you better make sure that. I have to go because I have another appointment," said Darren flatly as he stood up and then left the room followed by his men.
They got into a special elevator that only hospital executives could use. Darren smiled when he heard Viona's words. He felt intrigued by the girl, and now he became more and more eager to conquer the girl.
