Chapter 1309

Francesca said, “Those two elders from Advanced Medical Institute, along with Dr. Lake, looked furious enough to burst!”

Andrew smirked coldly. “They deserved it. After dealing with one, I certainly couldn’t play favorites. So, the Advanced Medical Institute side, well, I had to take care of one of them too, just to be fair.”

Francesca was surprised. “You dealt with one, and then another? Are you saying that Jared’s freakout was your doing?”

Andrew could not admit it, of course, and shook his head. “Fran, you’re wrongly accusing me! I honestly didn’t expect him to go crazy like that. You saw us both trembling and hugging each other. I was just as terrified as you were!”

Francesca nodded. Indeed, when she was scared, Andrew had been right there with her, seemingly just as frightened. She said, “Well, I’m heading back to Blumedale Hospital now. I’ll see you at the Grand Medical Summit! After this embarrassment, I’m sure Dr. Goddard and Dr. Bozzelli won’t be sleeping well tonight.

“Especially Dr. Bozzelli, since Jared is his most valued student. And he’s a man who really cares about his reputation. Jared really made a fool of himself this time.”

After giving Andrew a kiss, the busty, petite girl took a cab back to Blumedale Hospital by herself.

Andrew hurried away, too. If he stayed any longer, the people from the Advanced Medical Institute might come looking for him.

Moreover, Derek would likely be suspicious of him. After all, Jared’s breakdown was truly outrageous, and Andrew had been sitting in the same area as Jared at the time.

If there were an investigation, Andrew would be the first suspect.

He muttered, “Jared, don’t blame me. If you want to blame someone, blame yourself for practically asking for it!”

With a cold laugh, Andrew vanished into the distance. He was not one to just take it when someone messed with him.

Earlier, as soon as he picked up that cup of tea, he knew something had been added to it. However, with his constitution, nothing anyone added would affect him.

Nonetheless, just because he was fine did not mean he would not give someone a taste of their own medicine. Besides, Jared had repeatedly competed with him for Francesca’s attention, showing off. He had even been malicious enough to use the powerful “rabies” drug.

Chapter 1310

So, Andrew felt perfectly justified in using the powder extracted from the rabies virus on Jared.

With the farce over, Derek was exhausted after finally sending off the people from Advanced Medical Institute and all the other bigwigs.

He barked grimly, “Elle, ask Blumedale Hospital what happened. Today’s fiasco was absolutely humiliating!”

Chantelle could not help but recall the vivid scene earlier and almost vomited again.

“I know Jared. By all accounts, he shouldn’t have gone crazy like that, especially not in such a setting. Governor McCormick, I suspect all this has something to do with Andrew!”

Derek frowned. “Related to Andrew? What makes you think so?”

Chantelle shook her head. “I don’t have concrete evidence, but my instinct tells me it most likely involves that troublemaker! Andrew’s medical skills are extraordinary, as you know, Governor McCormick.”

She continued, “If he wanted to poison someone, Jared would have had no defense against it. Most importantly, this guy has always been recklessly bold and has no respect for anyone. That’s why he’d be capable of doing something like this!”

Derek fell silent, frowning in contemplation. Then, he waved his hand dismissively. “We don’t need to concern ourselves with this matter! Whatever problems arise, let Malcolm and Thomas deal with them.”

Chantelle protested. “Governor McCormick, you’re essentially showing favoritism toward Andrew.”

Derek chuckled. “As long as he can defeat the Advanced Medical Institute’s people at the Grand Medical Summit and save my face, I don’t care if he pulls some small tricks. Even if he causes bigger problems, I’ll clean up after him!”

Chantelle was displeased that Derek was favoring Andrew more and more.
