Chapter 512
Daphne was the first to react and immediately dashed over. She pried open Zeke''s eyelids and
began to examine his condition.
Seeing Daphne in action, Mrs. Zhou and her rtives came to their senses and turned to look
towards the hospital bed. When they saw Zeke vomiting blood, Mrs. Zhou was finally shocked.
She rushed over and shouted in panic, "How could this happen? How could this happen? Zeke, are
you all right? Why are you vomiting blood?"
Daphne exined hastily, "We informed you just now that Zeke was poisoned. Although Dr. Chen
had managed to control his condition just now, the toxins in his blood have yet to bepletely
cleared. We need to conduct further examination right now, so please stop wasting our time."
As she spoke, she was about to leave.
However, Mrs. Zhou and the others paused for a while before they rushed over again, and grabbed
Daphne to stop her from leaving.
"You can''t go. My son has be like this.
You can''t leave him like this!"
"That''s right, Zeke''s condition is so critical. You must be responsible for him."
"You''d better give us an exnation. How could this happen? I thought Zeke only suffered from
rashes, but why and how is he poisoned now?"
Daphne was anxious but helpless, and she tried to exin to them in desperation, "Zeke is my
patient, so I will definitely take responsibility for whatever has happened to him. But for now, the
situation is really urgent, and my priority is to cure the patient first. I really can''t dy it any longer."
Although Daphne was already begging them, there was still doubt in the eyes of Mrs. Zhou and the
others. After exchanging a few nces, they remained adamant on not trusting Daphne and said,
"We don''t believe you. If you want to leave, you have to write a confession letter to admit your
mistakes."
"Yes, you must write a confession. You have to admit that you caused Zeke''s ident and illness,
and take full responsibility."
"You''d also need to sign it. Now hurry up and start writing, now!"
"If you''re not going to write the confession, don''t even think about leaving."
Daphne was frustrated. Although she knew that she shouldered much of the responsibility, it was
clear however that someone poisoned Zeke this time. How could she write this so-called confession
admitting to something she didn''t do? Moreover, if she wrote it, she knew that more trouble would
be headed her way due to these stubborn people.
So, Daphne shook her head and said, "I admit that I''m responsible for Zeke''s illness. But the person
who poisoned him should be at bigger fault. I can''t bear responsibilities for the things I didn''t cause."

Hearing this, Mrs. Zhou and others became rowdy again.
"You''re just saying you don''t want to take the responsibility!"
"You''re a quack. You''ve mistreated Zeke yet you''re still trying to find a scapegoat for your mistakes."
"Catch her. People like this ought to be punished and locked up."
Amidst all the shoving and arguing, the frail Zeke spat out another mouthful of blood on the hospital
bed, his expression looking even weaker and pale than before.
Seeing this, the group of people beside him became even more anxious.
Daphne wanted to leave to manage his condition, but the group of women held her down tighter, not
allowing her to leave.
At this moment, two nurses rushed in and shouted urgently, "Dr. Tao, the results of the blood
analysis areplete."
The minute they saw the situation in the ward, both of them gaped awkwardly and fell silent.
"You can hand it to me. Also, please ask the principal of the hospital toe over." Fade directly
stepped forward to take the blood analysis results and screened through it quickly.
After looking through the details, he shifted his gaze towards Zeke on the hospital bed with a dire
look on his face.
Daphne wanted to rush over to have a look at the test results, but Mrs. Zhou and the others
tightened their grip and refused to let her go.
Fade said to her, "Dr. Tao, you don''t have to be anxious. None of this is your fault."
Daphne was shocked and looked at Fade wide-eyed.
The group of people were also bbergasted. They looked at Fade in visible annoyance and started
making a ruckus.
"Who are you to say that she bears no responsibility?"
"That''s right. Zeke was sent here to receive treatment, not to get poisoned. Now that things have
escted, you still try to dismiss her of her responsibility?"
"Both of you are crazy and useless. I''m going to expose you and sue you to the heavens!"
Fade ignored them, shoving them away with a clean gesture. Then, he grabbed hold of Daphne and
handed her the test results. He pointed to a spot on the results and said, "Look here."
Daphne stared at the sheet for a while, visibly confused at first but soon frowning in concern. After
thinking for a while, her face showed an expression of disbelief. She looked at Fade who nodded
his head, then turned to look at Mrs. Zhou and the others in surprise.
The other party was also confused by Fade and Daphne''s actions. They red at the both of them
and continued to yell stubbornly.
"What tricks are you both ying?"
"Don''t try to avoid us. Take responsibility for Zeke now!"
At this moment, there was amotion at the door. The nurse had called the principal of the
hospital and a group of executive leaders who all came in anxiously.
When Mrs. Zhou and the others saw the principal, they immediately gathered around him to stir up
a wave ofints.
"Principal, my son was improperly treated by the quacks in your hospital. You must give us an
exnation."
"That b*tch didn''t want to be responsible, and she didn''t even want to write a confession to admit
her faults. What more, she even wanted to run away from the responsibility."
"Let me tell you, my husband is from the Health Bureau. If you can''t give me a proper answer, I''ll
make sure your hospital gets shut down."
Upon hearing the threats, the principal grew anxious. He said a fewforting words to Mrs. Zhou
and the others, then turned to look at Daphne and asked harshly, "Dr. Tao, what''s going on?"
Daphne''s mouth moved. She wanted to exin, but she didn''t know where to begin.
Seeing this, the faces of the principal and executive leaders could not help but sink, their
expressions growing ghastly by the minute. Mrs. Zhou and others were even more delighted as they
added on to the ruckus.
"Look, she obviously has a guilty conscience. They are the ones who caused my son''s illness."
"That''s right, maybe they were the ones who poisoned Zeke."
"Catch them, catch them all."
In the midst of the shouts, Fade gently patted Daphne on the shoulder, then stood up and hollered
coldly, "Shut up, all of you!"
With a roar that contained his internal energy, all the people in the ward immediately fell silent.
Then, Fade swept his eyes across everyone and said in a cold voice, "I just diagnosed the patient''s
condition. I was also the one in charge of his treatment. Hence, I have the right to inform you of the
patient''s current situation. Let me tell you what happened to him."
While speaking, he grabbed hold of the tablet that was lying on the side and started showing the
principal and the other executive leaders the ward''s surveince video. He announced, "ording
to the video, the patient''s condition suddenly deteriorated because someone had maliciously
poisoned him. Therefore, it has nothing to do with Dr. Tao."
