Chapter 55
Just then. Norman strolled over.
Audrey glared at him, her eyes blazing with anger. “You’re the vice president of a hospital, and you’re openly refusing to admit a patient just to back up your nephew! People like you don’t deserve to be doctors!”
Norman chuckled coldly and retorted. “The hospital has limited resources. I can’t possibly care for every patient”
Audrey was at a loss for words. She was furious, practically ready to slap him across the face.
Miles and Peter heard the arrogant remark, their faces filled with despair and pain, but they felt powerless. In a private hospital like this, their lives seemed to mean nothing
Norman wore a patronizing sinile, saying, “Ms. Rhodes, we don’t have any deep–seated grudges. Why make a fuss with Dominic over a momentary quarrel?”
Audrey sneered, not wanting to engage
It was no wonder everyone thought Audrey’s quick marriage was just a tantrum. Ultimately, it was her fault for chasing after Dominic like a lovesick puppy back then.
Norman, oblivious to the tension, continued speaking. “Dominic just made the same mistake every man makes. He’s already promised to marry you, and what happened before doesn’t have to affect your life together. Why bother holding a grudger
Norman’s tone suggested that Dominic’s willingness to marry her was a monumental sacrifice.
Then Norman added. “I’ve heard about the issues with the Rhodes family. You probably won’t last long at the Rhodes Enterprises, right?
“With your current situation, you’ll never find someone better than Dominic. He doesn’t even mind that you were married before, and you
Hearing this, Audrey clenched her fists
“That’s enough! Your family is disgraceful!” a voice suddenly interjected.
“Who’s speaking” Audrey thought and turned to see Prier, who had been quiet for so long, glaring at Norman fiercely.
Instantly, the atmosphere shifted into a brief silence.
Peter took a deep breath, his voice seething with anger. “Your nephew was unfaithful before marriage and is now using a life to blackmail someone. You’re so shameless, and thank goodness she didn’t marry into your family. She would’ve regrested it for sure!”
Miles chimed in with his jibe. “Exactly! She’s young, beautiful, and kind–hearted. Who in their right mind would jump into your family’s fire pic?”
Norman’s face darkened. He muttered, ‘How dare these poor losers look down on my nephew!!
Fuming. Norman clenched his fists and snapped, “Who do you think you are to speak here! Don’t forget that you’re the ones who need something from incl
Peter took a deep breath and stood his ground. “So what if we do? We’ll just go somewhere else for treatment!!
With that, Peter turned to Audrey, offering her a smile tinged with regret. “Ms. Rhodes, you’ve already helped us so much! We’re not related, and you don’t have to put yourself through this for us!
“I don’t believe there’s only one hospital in Riverdale continued.

can treat this. If St. Johnson Hot
Hospital can’t, we’ll go to Willowdale. It’s no big deal!” Peter
Miles nodded in agreement, turning to push Jessica’s wheelchair.
Norman’s face was ashen. It had been a long time since anyone had openly disrespected him like this.
As the vice president of the best private hospital in Riverdale, Norman was usually surrounded by sycophants, even those in power treated him with respect
Now, these pathetic peasants were openly challenging him! How could he tolerate th
Then Norman pointed an accusatory finger at Peter and Miles, his voice dripping with menace. “I’ll say this clearly without St. Johnson, you can just wait to die out there!”

“Shut up!” a commanding ↑
e voice boomed from behind the crowd.
As soon as Norman heard that voice, his expression shifted dramatically,
