Chapter 291

When Millie struggled to come up with an answer, she and Hazel suddenly heard the sound of a vase crashing onto the floor. The loud scream of a woman sliced through the air.Winston immediately yanked the room door open and was greeted by a fruit knife sailing across the air. The knife landed by his feet.He entered the room and saw Joanna sitting on the bed with messy hair, her eyes red from crying. She appeared to be on the brink of a breakdown.Her crying intensified the moment she saw him. She was completely finished! Not only did Winston refuse to acknowledge her, but she also lost her career, which was once the source of her pride.What could she do?Winston frowned worriedly at Joanna's deteriorating health. If this went on, she would definitely suffer serious health problems.He picked up the stuff scattered across the floor, only for Joanna to continue throwing things around. He went on with the endless task and placed the items back on the bedside table until Joanna exh

Millie thought, "Well, that's me again.""Who are her colleagues in the hospital?"She and Joanna were the only two female doctors in the Cardiac Surgery department. Naturally, she would be the only plausible suspect.She suggested, "Dr. Lloyd, I don't think you should do the detective work." If Sebastian kept going, he might eventually find her guilty.She ran into an issue, as every single clue pointed toward her. Resting her cheek on her palm, she sighed deeply. "I can't even sleep well over the weekends.""Do you want to take a few days off?" Sebastian cautiously inquired.Taken aback, she would never do that, as she might only appear guilty. Not only that, she wanted to show up confidently in front of everyone."Did you not write the anonymous letter?" Even Sebastian started to doubt her innocence.Feeling troubled, she flashed him a smile. "I'll check out the control room."Right then, they heard a knock on the door. The staff in charge of the investigation entered."Is

After some serious thinking, Lainey shook her head. "No. I arrived at Dr. Lloyd's office with the materials when I got off work."Millie sank into a short silence. Feeling lost, she watched the video recording on her phone. "Oh well."If Lainey didn't drop the anonymous letter, how exactly did it show up in Sebastian's office?Suddenly, Yoel approached them with two medical records. He began, "Dr. Quinn, I'll take a day off tomorrow."Lainey glanced at him. He handed over a leave application form.She agreed, "Sure."Yoel shot a look at Millie and arched his eyebrow before leaving. Millie saw Yoel's handwriting on the leave application form. She commented, "Dr. Marshall has excellent handwriting.""Indeed. His handwriting is rather unique. You can tell it apart from the style of his strokes."Millie took a few more glances at Yoel's handwriting before going back to work.…Millie delivered some items to the emergency department. When she was about to leave, someone called to

"I didn't expose your sister's qualifications. There is nothing to talk about." Millie refused to engage with any of the Lowells.Logan explained, "Ms. Caldwell, I come in peace."After some hesitation, she stood in front of his car and replied, "Let's talk right here."Logan considered it and agreed. "Millie, I know you don't need money, but here's two million dollars." He offered her the check without warning. She was shell-shocked. What was this for?"Please be nice to my sister in the future." He glanced at Millie.In other words, he was subtly hinting at Millie—the perceived culprit—to accept the hush money and put an end to the scandal.She guffawed. He had humiliated her by offering money."Did you think you could make me behave with two million dollars?" She lifted the check and shot him a look of disdain. "If I offer you two million dollars to stay out of my sight, how does that make you feel?""Millie, why are you so unreasonable? You need to take responsibility for

Millie traveled to M Base right away as she needed to find out the culprit who exposed Joanna's fake qualifications. She couldn't stand the false accusations directed at her.When she arrived, Marvin was in the middle of checking the security footage. He checked every nook and cranny, but he didn't see anyone entering Sebastian's office.Millie's icy voice rang in the air. "Check the windows in the footage."He turned and found Millie standing behind her. "Boss, when did you arrive?""Just now," she said through gritted teeth.Marvin was too absorbed in watching the footage to notice her arrival. He grunted and quickly switched the scene. Then, he stole a cautious glance at Millie.She'd asked to look at the windows… Wait a minute. He smirked in disbelief. "Are we checking the windows at the hospital? Boss, we're talking about the 30th floor. Who'd be that crazy to climb through windows just to report Joanna? By the way, there's no way one could access the windows from the outs

"Save the footage and send me the HD photo of that man!" Millie ordered.However, she soon changed her mind. She said through gritted teeth, "Don't send it to me. Just print it out. I need a few copies." Marvin quietly glanced at Millie. He somehow sensed that she had shown up after being unfairly accused, and she was now on her way to avenge herself. From the looks of it, she seemed to be taking revenge against more than one individual.Marvin worked fast. Millie, having gathered the items, rushed to the hospital. During that time, Marvin texted her nonstop.Marvin: "Boss, always keep a lookout. Stay calm."Marvin: "Boss, what I mean is… be nice. Give him a break. Don't overdo it…"Marvin: "Boss, how about I go with you?"He was worried that Millie would go overboard when she taught the culprit a lesson.…Millie ran into Winston when she arrived at the inpatient department. He was on his phone and about to leave.When he noticed Millie, he scrutinized her from head to toe.

Millie lifted her head and looked at Winston. Suddenly, she broke into a smile. A bad feeling arose within Winston as he instinctively shielded Joanna behind him.The next moment, Millie tossed the photos in the envelope at Winston. Photos fluttered all around, and one even made a tiny cut on his cheek, causing him to bleed.Millie had clearly seen Winston standing protectively in front of Joanna. She sniggered at the depth of Winston's love for Joanna.Winston frowned and clenched his fist. He was about to question Millie when the latter stated, "I'm here to discuss only three things."Raising a hand, she stared expressionlessly at Winston, looking cool but stern. "First of all, I didn't leak the news about the fake Snowdrop herb. I looked into this scandal, and it was the media that reported on it for clicks."Secondly, I didn't tip off the media about our divorce. Ms. Lowell, you leaked it to the media to force us into getting a divorce so Winston could marry you sooner.""Thi

Joanna's cheeks flushed when Millie put her in her place. She always thought it was Millie who exposed her.She even planned for the worst-case scenario, in which she would drag Millie down with her.Therefore, she was shocked to learn that Yoel was the culprit who exposed her secret. She asked Millie, "And how did Yoel Marshall learn about it?""How the fuck would I know? You love running your mouth when you're out and about. Am I supposed to clean up your mess?" Millie bellowed at Joanna, causing her to jump in shock."Winston Greer, do not turn me into a scapegoat. I'm not some despicable villain." After that, Millie tossed the envelope into Winston's arms. She waved at Joanna and Winston, who were both scowling. "Best wishes for your marriage."With that, she marched out of Joanna's room feeling cathartic, but what happened was just the beginning. She didn't bring the evidence to Sebastian immediately as she knew Winston would certainly force Sebastian to take action again

"You—" Millie cut him off with a sweet and gentle smile. "Please excuse me, Mr. Lowell. I'm just giving you a taste of your own medicine."If Logan humiliated her by offering two million dollars, she would certainly retaliate in the same manner.Logan snorted. "You're something, Ms. Caldwell."She sneered. "Take the offer, Mr. Lowell. It's my act of charity."Logan stared at the check on the table with mixed feelings. For the first time, he knew how it felt to be humiliated with money. He reflected on his actions, thinking that he and Harriet had been rash.He rose from his seat. "Millie, I'll apologize to you."She stood up as well. "It's fine." Tucking a 20-dollar bill under the coffee cup, she looked at him with poise. "Consider the coffee my treat."Mr. Lowell, I have nothing to do with Joanna's incident. Don't ever accuse me baselessly."After that, she left without hesitation. She refused to accept his apology, as an apology was meaningless. She wanted him to carry th

Chapter 300

Yoel teared up when his career was on the brink. Placing his palms together, he pleaded to Sebastian and Winston between sobs. "Dr. Lloyd, it was all my fault!"I didn't think it through. D-Don't do this to me. What will I do if I'm blacklisted in the profession?" He couldn't accept being blacklisted in the medical profession, not after the effort he put into studying hard and graduating from medical school. That would be a death blow to him.Millie's gaze was devoid of sympathy, as Yoel had always looked down on people like her. She believed he was reaping what he sowed.If he couldn't extend fairness to his colleagues, how would he treat his vulnerable patients? The mere thought sent a shudder down her spine.It finally struck her the reason behind Yoel's enthusiasm when he picked up his patient from the emergency department, as the patient worked for a military general. It appeared that Yoel wanted to forge connections and expand his network.How despicable!Sebastian glared
