Chapter 1259

“However, that’s a joke. The only people getting through are the ones Daniel handpicked, the real bottom-feeders.”

At first, Norman scoffed at Andrew’s accusations.

Somebody trying to tell them how to run a hospital? The absurdity!

However, as Andrew kept spilling the beans, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Norman’s face went white as a sheet.

Daniel, already scared witless, nearly toppled over as he gasped, “You… how did you find out?”

Norman roared, “Zip it, Daniel!”

Inside, he was fuming. This fool, this absolute moron, could not keep his cool!

However, it was too late. The crowd erupted, a wave of fury sweeping through them!

The chaos was off the charts. “Dr. Charlton is a walking violation of medical ethics, totally unworthy of his white coat! Nobody forced his hand, he spilled the beans himself!”

“Man, if Mr. Lloyd hadn’t blown the whistle, we’d all still be clueless!”

“Daniel, you call yourself a doctor? Are you even human?”

Panic-stricken, Daniel just blurted it out, setting off a total meltdown!

Norman’s face was storm-cloud dark, and he was mentally trashing Daniel, labeling him a total waste of space.

However, Norman was seriously ticked off at Andrew, too.

Daniel’s mess was his own doing!

‘Now this guy comes out of nowhere, airing my dirty laundry? That’s a slap in my face as the chief!’ Norman fumed.

“Those are some big claims without proof, Mr. Lloyd! Dr. Charlton is my guy, under my watch, he wouldn’t dare step out of line!”

Norman was digging in his heels, trying to spin the story his way.

Andrew just scoffed, “I’m not looking to drag us all through the mud. However, if you’re still playing the cover-up game, that’s gonna tick me off! You say Daniel’s clean, but he pretty much just owned up to it!”

Daniel yelled back, “I didn’t confess to anything, I’m innocent! Andrew, you’re just throwing mud at me.

“What did I ever do to you, that you’re going for the jugular? You think if I go down, you’re gonna skate by? Well, think again!”

With eyes blazing, Daniel was backed into a corner, throwing threats at Andrew for all to hear.

Just like that, the patients around them were boiling mad!

One by one, they fixed Daniel and Norman with furious glares that could practically set the room on fire.

Norman’s hand flew out, landing a stinging slap on his subordinate’s cheek.

What a bonehead! A total moron!

Losing it and spouting such self-defeating nonsense at a time like that.

Norman was convinced that Daniel was a lost cause.

The slap brought Daniel back to his senses in a flash.

He realized he had messed up, big time, and was probably in deep trouble!

Norman, true to his role as the director, was quick on his feet and barked, “Get out now and think hard about the mess you’ve made! And cool off, then come back to personally apologize to Mr. Lloyd!”

Daniel, feeling like he had just dodged a bullet, beat a hasty retreat.

Norman’s advice to ‘cool off‘ was actually his way of pulling Daniel out of the line of fire.

If he could avoid being outed by Andrew right then, he would have all the chances he needed to make a comeback!

As long as he could keep his head down at Blumedale Hospital and secure his upcoming promotion…

He was determined to do whatever it took to crush Andrew.

The hatred boiled inside him, fierce and unyielding.

“Wait a minute, Daniel, who said you could go?”

Andrew’s face turned stormy as he watched the would-be escapee.

Daniel kept his head down and kept moving, tuning everything out.

Norman, relieved, managed a strained smile and said, “Mr. Lloyd, I don’t need your apology to the hospital anymore. Daniel’s just a kid who doesn’t know any better, sometimes he talks without thinking.”
