A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession

Chapter 125

After Anthony left, Gerald, contemplating his words, headed straight to the security room. Upon viewing the contents of the surveillance footage, his aged eyes filled with a stern intensity.

Then he went back to las offer angrily. Hailey was still there. Looking at the angry expression on Gerald’s face, she asked with uncertainty. “Mr. Zimmet, how is it gaing!”

“Dr. Yancey, our hospital has no place for troublemakers. You should seek employment elsewhere,” Gerald stated bluntly.

Hearing this. Hailey was stunned.

She looked at Gerald in disbelief and asked, “Mr. Zimmer, are you going to fire me?”

“Yeah,” he answered.

“Why I’ve dedicated so many years to this hospital. What about my hard work? How can I be dismissed so abruptly and without good reason?” she

asked.

Gerald said seriously, “Have you forgotten what you have done? Dr. Larson is just a young girl. Don’t you have to be responsible for the rumors you spread

“No, I didn’t.” Hailey still wanted to argue,

“You just won’t give up until you hit the wall,” said Gerald, as he took out his phone. It was the scene where she was throwing mud at Cynthia when she accosted Anthony just now, and there was a voice in the video, that fully showed what she had said!

Then Gerald scrolled down the screen. It was the scene of their quarrel at that position last time.

Seeing this, Hailey gritted her teeth and said, “Mr. Zimmer, although I have said something inappropriate, you can’t fire me just because of these words, right?”

Hailey recalled being discreet when she made those remarks, merely leaving room for interpretation without being explicit. Even if there were suspicions about her, no concrete evidence could be found to support them.

“I can sue you if you keep doing this,” she added.

Gerald’s chest heaved with anger, unable to fathom how he had ever hired such a person. Over the years, he had personally recruited each doctor at Peace Hospital. their skills unquestionable, but he realized now that he had neglected to assess their character. This oversight had led to the current troubles.

He

pur

his hand on his chest and said, “Dr. Yancey, don’t think that everyone else is stupid. Sometimes you can do it only once, but it doesn’t mean that you are so hicky every time

“Last time you met a nurse who knew nothing. She used herself to stand out for you. This time you met Anthony.

“Have you heard of the CEO of Clara Group? He is not a fool. I advise you to learn your lesson and leave as soon as possible.

Upon hearing this, Hailey was utterly dumbfounded. ‘How could it be? How could it be Anthony? she wondered. She had considered countless possibilities, but never did she imagine that

Cynthia, that woman, could have connections with such an elite circle.

“Mr. Zimmer, don’t try to deceive me. How could the prestigious Clara family have any connection with Cynthia? Don’t think you can trick me for seeking justice for Cynthia–I won’t believe you,” she retorted with suspicion.

Convinced that Gerald was lying, Hailey continued, “Mr. Zimmer, your unilateral defense of Cynthia and your haste to fire me–are you sure there isn’t something going on between the two of you!”

Gerald was infuriated by the woman’s insinuations to the point of feeling a pain in his chest. Trembling, he extended a hand, pointing accusatorily at Hailey.

Dr. Yancey, please mind your language. Otherwise…

Hailey knew that she couldn’t keep her job, so she didn’t take Gerald as a leader and was not afraid of anything

“Oh, did I hit your nerve?” she asked.

Gerald had intended to warn her that be careful what she said, to caution her that if her words reached the cars of that madman, knowing his obsessive nature, the consequences would be far worse than just leaving the hospital However, seeing the defiant look on Hailey’s face, he sighed in resignation, gesturing with a wave of his hand. Forget it. I had the good intention to warn you out of consideration for your years of service at the hospital. But since you’re not appreciative, I’ve nothing more to say. Please leave immediately.”

Knowing that there was no way back, Hailey rolled her eyes at Gerald and scolded, “You horrible old man, doing this to me for your little lover. Just

0

wall and see how long you can ple

ou can please her!

“Women at this age are the most energetic. I can’t believe that you can satisfy her. I’m afraid that she has several boyfriends behind you. The man who looked so enchanting just now must be one of them. And you’re trying to lie to me that he is the CEO of Clara Group. Who would believe that!

“Tadvise you to go to ser

to see a doctor as soon as possible. Those people’s love lives are a hot mess. Don’t get into any sexual disease”

Hailey, now intent on venting her frustration over her unjust dismissal, spared no harsh words. Gerald was so infuriated that he nearly passed out. and grabbed a teacup from the desk to hurl in her direction. But with the aging body, and shaking uncontrollably in his rage, he missed his mark. The teacup shattered on the floor. Unfazed by this, Hailey did not show a hint of fear.

Clicking her tongue twice, Hailey taunted, “Now, you better keep your temper. After all, your young lover still needs your protection.”

Having said that and judging the impact to be sufficient, Hailey refrained herself, fearing that a few more words might put Gerald’s health at risk— and that would be an outcome she couldn’t accept. With that, she left the room with a swagger

Gerald’s office was located on the top floor of the building. As Hailey took the elevator downs, she encountered an elderly

Lary and a young girl while passing the inpatient department situated on a middle floor. Hailey’s eyes narrowed slightly in recognition. This old lady had been one who spoke in favor of Cynthia. It was said that Cynthia had saved her grandson, so she held Cynthia in high regard and defended her vehemently. Seeing the lady emerge from the inpatient department, Hailey wondered if her family hadn’t been discharged yet. As Hailey thought about her misfortune that day, a flash of vengeful fire blazed through her eyes

She put on a smile and asked kindly. “Hasn’t your grandson been discharged from the hospital yet?”

The old lady, whose vision was a bit blurred, hadn’t noticed Hailey at first. Now, taking a closer look, she immediately recognized who she was.

“Oh. I thought it was someone else. It turned out to be the doctor who tried to persuade them indiscriminately that day,” the old lady said.

The expression on Hailey’s face froze, but she quickly adjusted it. “Don’t be so rude. I just care about your grandson’s health”

“Thank you. My grandson is very good. Thanks to Dr. Larson’s help, we can leave the hospital tomorrow,” the old lady said.

“Tomorrow! That soon?” Hailey was surprised.

Hearing this, the old lady got angry immediately. “You are so spiteful. How much longer do you wish my g

my grandson to stay?”

Hailey had never encountered such a forthright confrontation from a rural elderly lady who didn’t hold back in her disapproval. Although Hailey was fuming with anger internally, there was nothing

she could do. Hailey kept her mouth shit, not responding. Soon, the elevator reached the first floor, and the old lady exited.

The old lady held the little girl’s hand, pointed at Hailey, and said, “Stay away from this bad woman, ol

okay!”

“Got it, the girl said. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
