Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 1309

“First of all, you’ve got to work hard, Sabrina. Really put your head down and get the kind of results that’ll make everyone respect you—enough that they’ll want you leading them.”

“And second, you need to build strong relationships with people who matter. Doesn’t matter if it’s in medicine or any other field—having a solid network of accomplished people will do wonders for your future.”

“And unless it’s absolutely necessary, don’t get into fights with the big shots.”

“Of course, I’m not saying you should let people walk all over you. If Tarquin’s wife really picks on you, don’t be afraid of her. Even if it means going all the way to the top, I’ll make sure you get justice!”

Sabrina bit her lip, determined.

“I’m not lying, Grandpa. She started it! She’s not just rude—she’s shameless!”

“She stole the credit for my work and claimed it as her own. I could’ve just sucked it up, but I didn’t.”

“I called her, mainly out of respect for Mr. Bradford, tried to make peace, and even offered to bring her into the Medical & Pharmaceutical Association if we pulled this off together.”

“But instead of being grateful, she just mocked me!”

“She said she didn’t need my help to get into the Association—that her husband could get her in with a single phone call.”

“And she said even if she could help develop a cure, she’d never work with me.”

“She’s off on summer vacation now, taking her kids to Disney World or whatever, doesn’t care at all about patients or medical ethics!”

“She even threatened that once she’s back from vacation, she’ll see to it that you get kicked out as president, Grandpa. Said she’ll take your place.”

“She’s out to wipe the Stevenson family name from the medical community!”

“That’s outrageous!” Victor fumed. “Everything we’ve done for medicine—and she thinks she can erase it, just like that?!”

“Exactly, Grandpa! If someone like her—no morals, no sense of right or wrong—gets into the medical field, it’d be a disaster! The whole profession would fall apart!”

Victor’s face darkened. “Ignorant. She doesn’t know her place.”

Sabrina kept going, adding fuel to the fire.

“She’s just riding on Mr. Bradford’s coattails. Has no idea who she really is.”
