    Chapter 93


    Ruben was shocked, unable to utter a word.


    Not even the hospital director knew Curtis’ wife was one of his hospital employees.


    Without his help, Sandra wouldn’t havended a job at any top-tier hospital, let alone this


    опе.


    This year, thepetition for the promotion was fierce due to the high number of applicants, making


    spots scarce. Leanne’s credentials should have clinched her promotion, but Ruben had deliberately


    knocked her out with his agenda. He knew it and ignored it.


    But he never expected this unassuming youngdy to have such a striking ace up her sleeve!


    Why hadn’t she mentioned her connection to the Richardson family earlier? For three whole years, she


    kept it under wraps. How?


    usations of foul y were being thrown directly in his face. The director wasn’t a fool. He could read


    between the lines of Curtis’ pointed remarks.


    The director’s face darkened. “Mr. Richardson, there must be some misunderstanding!” he protested


    with a grave voice. “The promotion process at our hospital is subject to strict scrutiny. There is no room


    for any kind of underhanded transactions. Favoritism has no ce here, and everypetent doctor


    receives what they rightly deserve. However, considering the presence of doubts regarding the


    process, we’ll void this year’s results in the interest of fairness!”


    Sandra panicked. “Uncle!”


    A stern nce from the director froze her in her tracks.


    What was she thinking, calling him ‘uncle’ at a time like that? It was way out of line.


    “We’ll have a new round of evaluations, with everything out in the open to ensure transparency and


    fairness. I stake the hospital’s reputation on it. There will be no corruption on my watch!”


    Selina pped sarcastically. “Well, I’ve got time on my hands. I’ll oversee the anyone tries to cheat,


    they’ll have to deal with me.”


    process. If


    The talk of a fair reassessment was clear to everyone. The director tried to save his skin, sacrificing


    Sandra’s ill-gotten spot to restore Leanne’s.


    But Sandra wasn’t having it. She stamped her foot in frustration. “Uncle, how could you do this? You


    promised me…”


    With a warning look from the director, Ruben quickly muffled Sandra’s protests and

    dragged her away.


    Wearing a genial smile, the director turned to Leanne. “Dr. Castillo, rest assured. I’ll see justice done.”


    Justice from him? That was the biggest joke ever. But Leanne could only reply politely. “Thank you,


    Director.”


    Then, the director addressed Curtis. “Mr. Richardson, are you satisfied with this


    resolution?”


    Ever the charmer, Curtis ttered him. “It’s a relief that the hospital has a director of principles and


    righteousness. With you in charge, who would dare exploit their position and mistreat my wife?”


    The message was clear that he was watching, and the director better not slip up.


    “Don’t worry,” the director assured him, “Dr. Castillo,e straight to me if anything like this happens


    again. I’ve got your back.”


    With the pleasantries exchanged, the director was eager to leave. “Mr. Richardson, I have an important


    meeting, so I must excuse myself now. Dr. Castillo, would you mind showing Mr. Richardson around


    our facility?”


    No sooner had the director left than Leanne pushed Curtis away.


    “I’ve se

    that feeds you.”
