Cynthia held the stethoscope in her hand. Seeing this, Anthony quickly pulled his collar open and leaned over. “Dr. Larson, please”
Fighting the urge to hit him with her stethoscope because of his annoying g smile, Cynthia leaned in due to its short length and was surprised by his fresh, clean scent. This caught her off guard–she didn’t expect the man, who seemed dangerous, to smell so nice.
Impatient. Anthony grabbed her hand and put it on his chest himself. Cynthia was startled and pulled her hand bark at once.
“What are you doing?” she asked.
Anthony said, “Dr. Larson, what are you thinking about?”
Civing him a disapproving look, Cynthia cautiously placed the stethoscope against his chest, which, in stark contrast to his exquisitely handsome features, was solid and emanated a potent male essence. Her expression was serene yet focused as she discerned the worrying sounds emanating from the device. Her face gradually turned grave as she realized the severity of his heart condition and the apparent decline in its function prompting her to retract the stethoscope and advise him seriously, “Your heart issue is far from mild, I strongly suggest that undergo a comprehensive examination.”
“Will you examine me?” asked Anthony
“There is a special place for examination in the hospital
you
“But I’m worried that their skills are not good. If some parts of my body are not examined, the consequences might be serious. Although Anthony said so, there was no anxiety on his face. He only looked at Cynthia’s face the whole time.
“They are more skilled than me.” Cynthia said. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.
“But I just want you to check for me,” he insisted.
Seeing him like this, Cynthia was angry. So she said directly. Then you just wait for death”
Then she pointed at the door and said. “My business is over. If you don’t want to check, please go out.
“Okay, I’ll go. My life is the most important,” said Anthony, standing up. “Wait for me, Dr. Larson
With a look of clear distaste, Cynthia tumed her head away, while outside the clinic, Hunk, who had been waiting, promptly stepped forward to meet Anthony as he came out, and without a second thought, Anthony tossed the medical repon into his assistant’s hands.
“Line up for me”
Looking at the report in his hand, Hunk asked incredulously. “Mr. Clara, are you going to let Ms. Larson treat you?”
“What’s the problem?” Anthony was in a good mood and was very tolerant of Hunk’s nagging
“But we have Dr. Zimmer. He knows your condition best. I’m afraid that Ms. Larson is not familiar with your condition.”
Hearing this, Anthony smiled.
Then I’ll come to her more often. That’s exactly what I want”
As he spoke, he took a look at Hunk and said coldly, “Hurry up. Are you expecting me, the uck, to queue up?”
“Okay,” said Hank, turning a
g around and leaving
Anthony stood by the door he left open, staring intently at someone inside. Next door, Hailey watched with a puzzled look. Anthony’s handsome looks and impressive presence, along with his assistant, suggested he was someone important. Hailey wondered. Who is he? He may know Cynthia Maybe this man was the reason Gerald was so nice to her. With these thoughts. Hailey quickly figured out what to do next.
Seizing the moment when there were no patients, Hailey with a swaying gait approached Anthony. She put on what she thought was a kind smile and said, “Excuse me, sir, do you know Dr. Larson
When Anthony heard this, the expression on his face froze. He tumed his head to look at Hadley and said coldly. “It’s none of your business”
Surprised by how a man with such a pleasing appearance could have such a Bery temper, Hailey froze momentarily. Nevertheless, determined to pursue her thoughts, she pressed on.
“Dr. Larson is so excellent. She was put in an important position by Dr. Zimmer, the director of the hospital, as soon as she came.”
Hailey mentioned the word “important” with a sarcastic tone that made it clear there was a hidden meaning in her words. Anthony, well- accustomed to such tactics, chose to ignore her entirely.
12:31 PM
Sering Anthony’s reaction, Hailey, undeterred, continued, “I don’t understand what Dr. Larson is thinking Dr. Zimmer is old enough to be her grandfather, and yet she’s always hanging around him.”
Hailey intended to make this man see Cynthia in a negative light and begin to despise her. Without her influential support, Cynthia would lose her current standing and prestige. Contrary to Hailey’s expectations, Anthony not only didn’t react angrily to her words but instead stared back at her with a dark, unsettling gaze, causing Hailey to step back in fear.
“Do you mean that Dr. Larson has an affair with Mr. Zimmer? Anthony squinted his eyes dangerously.
“That’s what you have to ask Dr. Larson.”
Hailey steadied herself, believing in her clever approach of not stating anything directly. As before, she simply insinuated things, ensuring she couldn’t be blamed if any issues arose. However, she hadn’t anticipated that she was dealing with someone as unpredictable as a madman–not someone she could easily fool. As she was still plotting further smears against Cynthia, the man before her suddenly moved and Hailey felt a sharp kick to her stomach, sending her flying. Anthany retracted his foot and straightened his clothes, looking down at the walling Hailey on the ground. as if he were looking at a dead man.
“The person I care about is not someone you can slander like this Anthony advanced with long strides, each step resembling the grim approach of the reaper. “If you wish for death, I’ll oblige”
At that moment. Hailey felt as if all her internal organs had been displaced, the pain causing her to convulse intermittently. As she watched him draw ever closer, the terror in her eyes slowly magnified Filled with regret and a desire to fire, she realized retreat was impossible, her back was against the wall
“You hit me brazenly. Aren’t you afraid I’ll sue you?
Presently, Hailey could only put on a brave front, hoping to dissuade the madman before her by invoking the law. Hearing her words, Anthony responded with a cold, mocking smile,
“Me! I’m afraid the person who can put me in jail hasn’t been born yet. His voice was so arrogant that there was no fear at all.
After his words, he ticked at Hailey’s shan again. Writhing in pain, she truly feared this man. Even in the renowned Peace Hospital, he didn’t hesitate to strike a doctor. Anthony wouldn’t stand for any slight against Cynthia. A dangerous glint now appeared in his reddening eyes
“You stupid woman”
Just as he was about to deliver a crippling kick, Hunk, having hurried over after waiting in line, arrived just in time. As he witnessed the scene, his heart nearly skipped a beat
He hurried forward to block Anthony, urgently saying “Mr. Clara, you can’t do this.”
