The VIP wards of the hospital were all suites. The patient's bedroom and living room were separated, and there were beds in the guest room. In the downtown area of the city, things were more expensive than a five-star hotel. Ordinary people would not even dare to think about it.
In the living room, Theodore handed the signed document to his assistant, Moses.
"Reduce the work as much as possible during this period. Let the secretary handle it at her own discretion of the situation. Grandma is in poor health, so I will stay in the hospital to accompany her for a while."
"Yes, Mr. Godfrey." Just as Moses acknowledged the instructions, the sound of the door opening came from behind him. "Dr. Trevino?"
Everleigh was 1.7 meters tall and she wore a white coat. She stood at the door of the ward with a great aura. Her eyes were full of anger, which made one shudder inexplicably.
Theodore raised his eyes and calmly looked at Moses. "You may leave first."
"Yes, Mr. Godfrey."
Moses carefully looked at Everleigh. When he left, he closed the door and it cut off the noise from the corridor outside. The room quietened down suddenly.
"Bang!" Everleigh put the medical report in front of her on the table. Although it was not a big action, the sound was very clear in the quiet living room.
"Don't you want to explain yourself? What is the meaning of this?"
Theodore maintained his seat on the sofa. He reached out to take the medical report and turned the pages. His cold eyes were calm and rational as usual. "Mr. Lawson moves quite fast."
"Are you admitting that it's all your doing?"
"I don't intend to deny it."
His light tone made Everleigh angry. "Why did you simply change my job? Just because you're Theodore? Because the Godfrey family is rich and powerful?"
Theodore turned to look at her. "Isn't it enough?"
Everleigh was speechless.
Indeed, just because he was Theodore, who had the wealth and power of the Godfrey family, he could change her job at will. Even Mr. Lawson had to obey him, so forget a powerless doctor like herself.
Everleigh gritted her teeth and said, "What if I don't do it?"
"You can do that," Theodore put down the medical report. "However, in addition to the high penalty, this hospital will be on the discreditable list of the National Hospital Boards. But you don't have to worry. All of this has nothing to do with you and only the hospital would be responsible for it."
"Theodore, you..."
This was simply a threat.
She was an employee of the hospital. Because of her, the credit of the entire hospital would be ruined and they would have to pay a high price in liquidated damages. Even if she did not have to bear such a serious consequence alone, how could she face her colleagues and bosses in the hospital in the future? How could she still stay in this hospital?
Theodore crossed his arms and looked at the woman in front of him calmly. Everleigh, who was so angry that she wanted to jump up and down, tried her best to suppress her anger. Theodore thought it was interesting. This decision was indeed right.
"I already have a VIP patient. There's a rule in the hospital that an attending physician can't be assigned to two or more VIP patients at the same time."
Everleigh still wanted to fight.
Theodore said, "The one you're talking about has already been transferred to another hospital."
"Transferred to another hospital? When did it happen? Why didn't anyone tell me?"
"This morning, Mr. Lawson originally meant to change his attending physician, but I think it's more appropriate to transfer him to another hospital so that you won't be embarrassed when you see him in the future." Hearing this, Everleigh laughed angrily and said, "Do you mean that I should thank you for being considerate for me?"
"You're welcome."
Everleigh clenched her fists and her knuckles almost creaked. If it wasn't for the white coat on her body that day, she would really have hit him.
