Valerie hesitated. While she was upset about the way the journalist tried to manipulate Ares, she was not sure if it was ethical to hack into his phone. She knew that it was against the law, and she could get into serious trouble if she was caught. It had been three days since the journalist came over to the house and he sent an email to him, telling him he was going to uncover the truth and make him pay for the misdiagnosis that happened in his hospital years ago. She had been trying new ways to support Ares and expose the journalist, and after hours of searching,She finally found a verified account of a retired investigative journalist, that texted her on Reddit. He was interested in the case and wanted to take up the case personally.Valeria was worried about how the situation was affecting Ares' mental health.He had been stressed out and worried about his reputation, and Valeria could see the toll it was taking on him.That gave her another reason to fight for him because sh
"You have two choices. Either you publicly confess to the misdiagnosis and have your hospital shut down, or you lie and say that you did it intentionally. Either way, your reputation and career are ruined. The choice is yours. You have 24 hours to decide." Both Ares and Valerie looked stunned, and almost immediately the email got deleted, making it stiff for them to Re-read it.But they knew what he wrote, and that got them worried.“I never did it, it wasn't even a mistake, the person was brought in almost dead, and there was little or nothing we could have done to save him.”And now Liam was giving him 24 hours to confess to a crime he never committed.“If any scandal should occur in the hospital, my license might be revoked,” Ares said, squeezing his brow.Valerie was short of words, she knew how important the hospital was for Ares, and if they shut down the hospital, he wouldn't remain the same.She hoped Steven had some evidence to use against Liam. She headed to her room and lo
When Valerie woke up, she was in a different room. The lights were dim, and there was a quiet, peaceful feeling in the air.She was still hooked up to the monitors, but she felt more relaxed than she had before. As her eyes adjusted to the light, she saw Ares sitting in a chair next to her bed. He looked tired, but he smiled when he saw her. "Welcome back," he says. "How are you feeling?" Valerie tried to nod, but her head was too heavy. All she could do was keep smiling at Ares. He reached out and took her hand. "It's okay," he said. "You're safe now. You did great." Valerie closed her eyes again and relaxed. She felt safe and protected with Ares by her side. After a few moments, she opened her eyes again. This time, she felt a bit more alert. "What happened?" she asked weakly. Ares explained everything that happened during the surgery and told her that she and the babies were all healthy. Valerie felt glad and happy, she remembered that she couldn't finish the text she sent
Valerie's fingers tapped anxiously on her phone screen as she messaged Steven about her illness. Almost instantly, his reply requested an audio call. Valerie complied, her voice tinged with relief and excitement as she shared her progress."I'm so happy with how everything is going," she said, the words laced with gratitude. "Do you think we can go public with the evidence now?"Steven, on the other end of the call, was cautious. "We need more than just evidence. We need people who can testify against him, firsthand witnesses to his manipulations."Ares, who had been silently listening, spoke up. "I want to know who Liam, the cunning journalist, is working with. There must be someone behind the scenes pulling the strings."Steven paused, as if considering how much to reveal. "Liam often receives anonymous emails from someone. I've been trying to trace them, but it's been challenging."A sudden message notification interrupted their conversation. Ares glanced at his phone, the screen
The night air hung heavy with anticipation as Ares made his way home, the revelation of Lyon's betrayal weighing on his mind. Along the dimly lit streets, he stumbled upon Tina, a friend from his medical school days, going somewhere, he stopped and lowered the glass shield. Their unexpected reunion crackled with excitement and nostalgia."Ares! Is that really you?" Tina's voice cut through the night, a mix of disbelief and joy."Yeah, Tina, it's me! Can you believe it?" Ares replied, a grin spreading across his face.He opened the car door for her to get in, as they caught up on life, Tina's eyes widened with genuine happiness upon learning about Ares's own hospital.However, Ares's expression shifted when Tina mentioned her four years of nursing at Dalton Hospital. Dalton, the domain of Lyon, Ares's once-trusted friend, cast a shadow over the reunion.Tina, perceptive to Ares's sudden change, probed gently, "What's going on, Ares? You look troubled."“Nothing much Tina.” Ares said
Valerie, her eyes reflecting determination, chimed in, "We need evidence that can't be brushed off. Something that exposes Lyon's involvement beyond doubt."Steven nodded in agreement. "Let's not forget, we also have Liam pushing for that interview. If we play our cards right, we might get Liam to reveal more during the interview."Tina, considering the multi-pronged approach, suggested, "We should synchronize the tech's infiltration with Liam's interview. While Mark, the tech gathers evidence, Ares can keep Liam talking, extracting more information from him."Ares, ready for the challenge, nodded. "I'll play along with Liam, get him to spill whatever he knows. Lyon won't see it coming."Steven added, "Remember, we need to expose both Lyon and Liam simultaneously. It's a delicate dance, and timing is crucial."Steven spoke from the other end of the laptop. “Ares, you have to postpone the interview, come up with something like, you've to be there for a surgery patient, and you would gr
The next day, Ares and Tina were already at the hospital, excited by the fact that they had evidence against Lyon.Ares, fueled by a mix of determination and frustration, stood up. "I'll get ready for Liam's interview. “Why would he choose this late and a secret place for the interview? I'm worried.” Valerie said worriedly.“He wouldn't want it to be an open place, don't worry I'll be fine,” Ares assured her.Valerie, sharing a glance with Ares, affirmed, "Let's do this. We can't let Lyon continue his deceit."“Do you have your microphone connected, Ares?” Steven asked.“Of course, Steven, Tina let’s get this over and done with.”As Ares and Tina left to prepare for the interview, Valerie huddled around the laptop, her fingers dancing over the keys, coordinating the synchronized actions.***Ares was standing in the parking garage, nestled in a quiet corner, the air was charged with tension. He was waiting for Liam to arrive. He knew that Tina was recording everything from her hidin
In the quiet corridors of the hospital, Ares, Tina, and Valerie gathered in Valerie’s hospital room that served as their camp. The faint hum of medical equipment served as an unlikely backdrop for their strategic planning.Ares, flipping through the dossier of evidence, spoke with conviction, "We've got them on the ropes. Lyon and Liam won't be able to wriggle out of this one." Valerie, in her bed, nodded weakly but with a fierce determination in her eyes. "Let's make sure they pay for what they've done."“And we have to do it tonight, we have to beat Liam to it before he publishes whatever he wants to publish, in the morning, he wouldn't know what hit him,” Valerie said.Tina, her eyes fixed on the laptop screen, chimed in, "Once Steven releases this bombshell, it's game over for them." The room became a hub of activity, a blend of hushed conversations and the soft beeping of medical monitors.Steven, are you ready to release the evidence?" Steven, with a confident nod, replied on t
