Chapter 541


    Hadley got up and walked out of Zeke’s office. She murmured to herself, “Love is such aplicated


    topic, huh? Lacey, I hope you’ll see where I’ming from soon! Homosexuality is the right path in life!


    Heterosexuality is merely for those who wish to produce offspring!”


    In the meantime, Zeke massaged his swollen temples because he was uncertain if he should keep


    Hadley by Lacey’s side as her bodyguard.

    Nevertheless, Hadley was the only suitable candidate for the job he could think of for the time being.


    Deep down, Zeke was determined to get rid of Hadley and get Lacey another bodyguard should the


    opportunity arise in the future.


    As soon as he sorted out the things he had in his mind, he reached over and picked up the stack of


    documents Hadley left behind.


    Based on the intel gathered, Johnathan and his mother, Laura, had been working for Reagan


    Pharmaceutical since decades ago.


    As Laura had been diagnosed with acute coronary heart disease, she was in desperate need of a huge


    sum to carry out the required operation.


    However, Jonathan and Laura had rtively few savings because they were but ordinary workers. As a


    matter of fact, Johnathan had gone around and asked for his rtives’ help. He had also sold his


    personal assets to gather the required sum, but it wasn’t enough.


    Initially, he would be able to gather the required sum as long as he received his wage for the month.


    However, those from Reagan Pharmaceutical had denied his payment. Hence, Johnathan initiated a


    strike and demanded their monthly wages to be paid.


    As soon as Zeke took note of the address of the hospital Laura had checked in, he departed.


    It wasn’t an easy feat to get the frontline workers to return to their respective position. First of all, Zeke


    had to win them over.


    To be exact, Zeke was unsure if he would be able to achieve the n he had in mind because it would


    be tough to win them over again since they had their trust trampled on previously.


    Once he stepped out of the ward, he ran into Dawn.


    Zeke requested, “Dawn, can you please pick Sharon up on my behalf in the afternoon? I have


    something to tend to.”


    “What exactly are you up to?” Dawn asked in return.


    Zeke shed her a furtive smile and replied, “I need to do a particr group of people a favor to win


    them over.”


    “Why don’t you do me a favor as well? I mean, you can win me over easily,” Dawn replied with a


    vicious grin on her face.


    “Ha!” Zeke decided to brush her off.


    He departed and made his way over to Griffin General Hospital once he delivered his instructions.


    It was a second-rate private hospital. Due to the limited amount of money Johnathan had, he could only


    send his mother to such a hospital.


    Themotioning from the lobby of the hospital attracted Zeke’s attention the moment he got out


    of his car.


    He turned towards themotion and noticed that people were fighting in the lobby of the hospital.


    As soon as Zeke made his way into the hospital, he figured out what was going on.


    It turned out the doctor and the nurse was trying to chase a patient out of the hospital because she


    couldn’t afford the bills anymore.


    In fact, they had already thrown the patient’s baggage out of the hospital.


    The patient was a senile olddy. She begged the nurses to show her mercy and allow her to stay for


    another night. The pitiable patient promised to settle the bills by tomorrow.


    However, the nurses stood their ground and insisted on chasing her out of the hospital.


    In the end, the senile olddy had to give in to the nurses. She promised to get in touch with her family


    member and would get them over to pick her up immediately.


    She merely wished to stay in the lobby until her family member showed up, but the nurses insisted on


    chasing her out of the hospital. They said she didn’t deserve to stay inside the hospital because she


    was a filthy peasant who would affect the hospital’s image.


    The onlookers couldn’t stand it anymore and tried to persuade the nurses, “Don’t you think that’s too


    much, miss? She has agreed to leave the hospital. Can’t you allow her to stay in the lobby until her


    family member shows up?”


    “That’s right. She’s but an old and frail woman. She can’t possibly make her way home by herself when


    she can barely walk properly, right? Why don’t you show her some mercy?”


    “Not to mention the sun’s zing! It’s so hot out there. I’m afraid she will pass out due to heat stroke if


    you insist on chasing her out of the hospital.”


    One of the nurses replied indifferently, “She shouldn’t have visited the hospital in the first ce if she


    knew she couldn’t afford it. I’m merely executing the rules of the hospital. What gave you guys the right


    to judge me? If you think my action is too brash, why don’t you guys settle the bill on her behalf?”


    The onlookers got even more infuriated. The nurse became the target of their witch-hunt. “Do you have


    any idea what you’re talking about, miss? The hospital should prioritize its patients, right? Since when


    did profit be the priority of a hospital?”


    “He’s right! Money can’t possibly buy everything, right? After all, she has promised to settle her bills by


    tomorrow!”
