"Absolutely not."
Cybele felt like a child sitting in the principal's office back in middle school. She sat in the chair across from Murray, and she felt like crawling back to Martin's office after hearing the head doctor's answer to her suggestion.
She swallowed hard, getting nervous, but she tried to stand her ground. "Doctor Wolfgang," she started again, and she tried to keep eye contact with him, "I can assure you Neil regrets what happened. If you would just—"
"I thought I already told you, Cybele," Murray spoke, and he narrowed his eyes at the young nurse, his hands sitting by each other's fingertips, with his elbows prompted on the armrests of his chair. "My decision was and is final. Neil's not getting his license back until the five years have passed, and he's certainly not coming back to work in my hospital with my patients."
She had to hand it to Murray for being relatively calm during this conversation, considering how aggravated and hurt he had been over Neil's mistake. Still, Cybele was convinced she would eventually manage to crack him. "But won't you consider giving him a second chance, doctor?"
