In fact, Fiona had waited for more than two months before she could even be admitted to Ternion Hospital. Her condition had deteriorated so much by then that there was no choice but to place her in an intensive care unit.
Given that she was in her recovery stage, it'd be difficult for her to be readmitted to the hospital if she were kicked out now.
“Who has the nerve to cause trouble in the hospital?” Janessa Danowski asked before letting her gaze fall on Donald. “Is it you?”
“That's right. It's me.”
A sneer crept across Janessa's face as she grabbed a thick wad of notes from her bag and threw it at Donald's feet.
“Oh, I've seen plenty of people like you... You're only after money, aren't you? Well, that's thirty thousand on the floor. Take it and get out of my sight!”
Instead of picking up the money, Donald stuck his foot out and stepped on it. Oh, for goodness' sake... What age are we living in? Why do people still think money makes the world go round?
“Initially, I only wanted to go after Dr. Yardley, but now I see you're the real culprit behind this mess. In that case, I shall cut to the chase,” he piped up. “You'll have to compensate us, but I want you to get on your knees and hand the money over respectfully. More importantly, you can't take this ward.”
Needless to say, Janessa was furious. What the f*ck! This punk is too arrogant!
“Come in, Heston! It's time to teach this insolent brat a lesson!” she shouted toward the door.
Within seconds, Heston Dinger entered the ward.
Tall and built like a tank, the man was undoubtedly not one to be messed with—a fact that Nikita and Evelyn were well aware of as they hastily hid behind Donald.
“Mr. Campbell, why don't we call the office and let them handle this matter?”
“No need. I can easily take down a dozen men like him.”
Alas, as soon as Donald said that, Heston made a fist and swung at his head.
At the same time, Donald darted aside and brought his leg up to kick the burly man in the face.
