“Heh...”
Mikel''s lips trembled as his facial muscles twitched slightly.
“Mr. Kennedy, you should apologize to Cameron for what you just said,” Tara said.
Her gaze was slightly cold as she looked at Mikel.
“You want me to apologize to him?” Mikelughed dismissively. His demeanor turned scornful
again. “Dr. Smith, I''ve already made myself clear. That guy just used external forces to stimte
your grandfather into waking up from hisa, which can lead to endlessplications.Please check at N/?vel(D)rama.Org.
“Mr. Kennedy, what about the misdiagnosis you made for my grandfather? How are you going to
exin that?” Tara''s gaze grew even colder as she faced Mikel''s unrepentant attitude.
"Heh, who doesn’t make a few mistakes in their work? Just like you, as a doctor in our hospital, don''t
you know the rules about not bringing unrted individuals into the intensive care unit?”
Mikelughed dismissively and added, “What if he brought some bacteria into the ward? What
about the patients who will be treated here in the future?”
"You!"
Tara was immediately infuriated as her face turned pale with anger. Mikel was shameless, shirking
responsibility and turning the me around.
She wondered if it wasn''t the hospital''s duty to prioritize saving patients’ lives. At that moment, her
grandfather was in such a critical condition that she couldn''t care less about anything else.
As for bringing bacteria into the ward, unless it was some super bacteria, the ultravioletmps at the
ward''s entrance were more than enough to kill all bacteria. Mikel was just making trouble out of
nothing.
“So, Dr. Smith, be more careful next time and don''t repeat the same mistake,” Mikel said in a tone of
superiority as if he were giving advice.
"Mikel, you really have no shame!” Tara was unable to hold back any longer.
She red at him with her beautiful eyes filled with anger.
"How am I shameless? Dr. Smith, am I wrong? Can you guarantee he’s not carrying some kind of
pathogen?” Mikel retorted.
“I can!"
“With what?”
“Because he''s my boyfriend, and we''re together every day!" Tara stated as she boldly looped her
arm through Cameron''s.

Cameron was taken aback by Tara''s deration, especially when her chest brushed against his arm.
It sent a shiver through him. Her Impressive figure had always been concealed under herb coat,
making it less noticeable.
“This kid''s your boyfriend?”
Not only was Mikel stunned by this revtion, but so were the other doctors and nurses outside the
ward. They hadn''t expected Tara, known for her aversion to men, to have a boyfriend already.
"Yes!" Tara looked at Mikel''s astonished face. She felt a wave of satisfaction. Now, she wanted to see
what else Mikel could argue about.
The tension in the room was palpable as Mikel clenched his teeth while looking at the affectionate
couple. His jealousy was reaching a boiling point.
He had never seen Tara act this way with any man before, especially since she was rumored to have
an aversion to men. He couldn''t believe that it was all an act! In his eyes, she had been pretending
to be
something she was not.
“Heh, it turns out she’s just a bitch...” Mikel muttered under his breath with a coldugh.
"What did you say?” Tara''s eyebrows shot up as her expression turned cold
“I said, it turns out you''re that type of woman, Dr. Smith. On the surface, you act all high and
mighty, as if you loathe men. But behind the scenes, you''ve been sneaking around with other men,”
Mikel stated coldly.
“Since that''s the case, I might as well be direct. You don''t need to bother with the uing heart
surgeries. I''ll have Dr. Lambert handle them.”
“Mr. Kennedy, are you ying with the patients’ lives?” Tara''s eyes grew colder at Mikel''s words.
"Heh... Dr. Smith, heart surgery isn''t something only you can do.” Mikel scoffed.
“But I understand the patients’ conditions better than Dr. Lambert!” Tara argued.
“I don''t think so,” Mikel dismissed her. He added, “I don''t believe you''re in the right state to perform
these surgeries right now. It''s better to take a few days off with your grandfather.”
"I disagree!” Tara refused to give in to Mikel''s provocations.
“I''m the department head here, and what I say goes,” Mikel dered authoritatively. 1
"You!" Tara was shaking with anger, her lip nearly bleeding from being bitten so hard.
It wasn''t the surgeries that infuriated her. She didn''t care about the money. What enraged her was
Mikel''s willingness to jeopardize patients’ lives over personal grievances. She knew that changing
surgeons was a major taboo in surgery. It could significantly increase the risk ofplications.
The other doctors looked on ufortably, but none of them dared to speak out. After all, Mikel
was the department head, and crossing him could spell the end of their careers in the hospital.

“Dr. Smith, there''s no need someone like him. Let me handle this,” Cameron said as he offered a
reassuring smile to Tara, who was visibly agitated. He walked toward Mikel.
Tara was taken aback. She was unsure of Cameron''s intentions.
"What are you trying to do?” Mikel asked.
He furrowed his brows in suspicion as Cameron approached him. Cameron was a whole head taller
than him.
“It''s nothing much. I just wanted to say...” Cameron''s voice trailed off. Without warning, he turned
his hand into a fist and thrust it powerfully into Mikel''s chest.
In an instant, Mikel''s chest caved in by more than an inch. His eyes bulged in shock, and he fell to
the ground. He was motionless.
“All I wanted to say was that I''ve been displeased with you for a long time,” Cameron stated coolly
after delivering the punch.
He then turned to Tara with a slight smile. “Dr. Smith, there''s no point in reasoning with a thug. See,
isn''t the problem resolved now?”
