Chapter 998


    In the hospital’s conference room, Liana grilled everyone involved with the surgery. They all agreed


    that Mr. Webb’s surgical mishap led


    to the ident.


    She suspected Yeager of deliberately concealing the patient’s condition, so she personally checked the


    patient’s previous medical reports. Finding nothing wrong, she requisitioned the surveince footage of


    the operation. The video showed Yeager warning Mr. Webb against messing with the major blood


    vessels. The autopsy report also stated the cause of death was a botched repair of a major blood


    vessel.


    Without concrete evidence, Liana couldn’t justy the me on Yeager. She had to deal with the


    medical dispute, fork over a heftypensation to the patient’s family, and promise them that the


    hospital would give Mr. Webb the boot and seriously discipline him.


    As for the drug developed by Mr. Webb, the dead patient’s students (who were all top dogs in the


    global medical field) kept showing up at the hospital to have their say.


    They believed Mr. Webb was a bad apple and shouldn’t get the Nobel Prize in Medicine. If Mr. Webb


    won, they would team up with major hospitals andpanies in the medical device field to give their


    hospital a hard time.


    On hearing this, Liana outright said they didn’t need the honor, but they had to keep Mr. Webb’s name


    as the developer of the drug.


    However, other hospital bigwigs believed that the research was authorized by the hospital and Mr.


    Webb was assigned to develop it. They thought Mr. Webb was just the head honcho in the team and


    the sess of the drug was a team effort, not all down to him. They insisted that they had to get the


    prize, as it was a feather in the hospital’s cap.


    To put the hospital on the map internationally with this drug and gain influence, the hospital leaders


    unanimously decided to have Yeager, who helped with the development, rece Mr. Webb in


    completing the paper. They intended to hand over the fruits of Mr. Webb’s hard work to Yeager.


    Liana disagreed with this decision and wanted to talk to Bernard. But the hospital leaders said,


    “Medical idents are par for the course, and we can’t run to investors every time something goes


    wrong. Investors only care about the bottom line and don’t run the hospital. The handling of idents


    should be done by the hospital director and management, not always running to investors.”


    Liana smacked the table in anger and said, “We’ve been discussing, but everyone’s opinion is all over


    the ce, so I wanted to involve the investor.”


    One of the hospital leaders sarcastically replied, “You’re the only one who disagrees, the rest of us are


    on the same page. Are you the be–all and end–all of this medical system?”


    Seeing the argument escte to a national medical system level, Mr. Webb quickly stepped in to stop


    the arguing Liana, “This is my fault, and I’m willing to take all the me. Let’s decide by vote ording


    to hospital rules.”

    That was pretty much Mr. Webb burning his bridges.


    Liana just stared at him, momentarily lost for words.


    The rest of the hospital management started voting, all in favor, with only Liana opposing.


    Even as the director, Liana couldn’t protect Will.


    Seeing the overwhelming support in the vote count, the hospital leaders made a decision on the spot.


    As the crowd dispersed, Liana lifted her clear eyes to look at Will sitting below.


    Just then, he was calmly looking back at her with a faint smile.
