The Almighty Dragon General novel Chapter 213

Chapter 213

The security guard gave him passage. James pushed the door open. The Callahans gathered in the hallway of the hospital. 

Wearing a worried expression, they paced back and forth. 

James approached them and asked, “What happened?” With a tearful voice, Thea explained, “We don’t know either. A bunch of people appeared out of nowhere and started to stir up trouble. They said someone died in our hospital and demanded compensation. Now that they’ve made a big scene, even the reporters have made their way here. We had no choice but to close the hospital temporarily.” 

Lex was on the phone. He was calling some big shots to help resolve the crisis. 

“You reek of alcohol. Why are you here? Are you here to cause more trouble for us?” Gladys rebuked James upon smelling a whiff of alcohol on him. 

“Dad, grandpa, this is bad. There are now more people outside. They’re saying there’s something’s wrong with our medicine.” Tommy ran in in a panic. He lost his footing and collapsed to the floor. 

Upon hearing this, they fell silent. 

“What’s going on?” Howard was puzzled. “Eternality Hospital has been operating for many years, and there’s never been an accident. Mr. Chase, you’re in charge of this place. Even a single accident would be unacceptable, so how on earth did so many occur at once?” 

Howard looked at an elderly. 

The man was sixty years of age. He was wearing a scrub and had long hair. 

His name was Zeke Chase. He was a distinguished doctor and a member of the Doctor’s Association. He was a well-paid doctor appointed by Eternality Group to be in charge of the hospital. 

“I-I don’t know either.” Zeke was puzzled too. No accidents had occurred for as long as he was in charge. Besides, the doctors had to undergo a rigorous selection process. There should not be anything wrong with the medicine they prescribe. How could someone die because of it? 

Thea pulled James’ arm. “What should we do now?” 

James lightly waved and consoled her, “No worries. Shutting down the hospital won’t resolve anything. It’ll make us look even more guilty. Open the door. We can communicate with them.” “Communicate? How?” Tommy yelled, “James, are you here to cause trouble? Did you not see how brutal those people outside were? If we open the door, they’ll rush in and beat the hell out of us.” 

“Exactly.” 

“We shouldn’t open the door.” 

“Let’s call the cops.”
