A Beastly Boss (Completed Main Story) - Chapter 43

It was the first time Seul Hee had worked as an animal technician—at Dolmarae Animal Hospital.

Thus, the only veterinarians she knew were exactly three.

The Director, her maternal uncle, who rarely came to the hospital and spent his days leisurely, occasionally giving university lectures.

Deputy Director Ms. Choi, always airy and gentle.

And Mr. Ok, meticulous and strict.

The fourth veterinarian she came to know, Choi Lee Hyun, gave her a completely different impression—especially compared to Mr. Ok, who had observed his consultations from right beside him for so long.

When her uncle, the Director, saw the handsome Lee Hyun enter the animal hospital, he joked that all the unmarried female staff at the hospital must be thrilled. But in reality, it was the numerous dog owners who were most delighted.

“Oh my! There’s a new doctor I’ve never seen before. Oh my… oh my.”

The owner of a Pomeranian she always saw winked her eyebrows at Seul Hee upon seeing Lee Hyun. Seul Hee could only offer an awkward smile in return, prompting the woman to whisper softly,

“The new doctor is quite handsome too.”

His popularity among middle-aged female owners was explosive. Even if he performed examinations somewhat carelessly, Lee Hyun’s naturally easygoing demeanor always left owners exiting the consultation room with smiles on their faces.

However, unlike his popularity among the owners, Seul Hee always felt an odd unease in her chest whenever she saw him—though she couldn’t quite put her finger on why.

It happened when she was assisting him. The owner of a newly visiting Schnauzer had briefly stepped out of the consultation room for the dog’s initial examination.

Whenever a new or long-absent patient came in, Mr. Ok always conducted thorough checks—teeth and gums, inner ears, lumps on the chest, skin condition, cleanliness around the anus, and so on.

But Lee Hyun merely gave the Schnauzer a quick once-over, placed his stethoscope briefly over its heart, and immediately pulled it away.
