The president of Rivershire Hospital was nearing retirement age. Recently, rumors had started spreading through the hospital that Donald was going to take over the position and become the next president of the hospital.Once Lydia caught wind of it, she immediately started talking about marriage, hoping she could marry Shawn as soon as possible. If she married him, she would become the daughter-in-law of the future president of the hospital. Wouldn't that mean she could walk around the hospital like she owned the place?Seeing that Lydia wasn't moving, Cassian said coldly, "I told you to get out of the way. Didn't you hear me?"Suppressing her anger, Lydia sighed and remarked, "Why must you do this, Cassian? Regardless of everything that happened, we dated for a few years. Even though we've broken up now, can't we at least be friends?""I'm not interested in being friends with you," Cassian said as he glanced at Lydia. "I'd be too disgusted.""Why, you!"Infuriated, Lydia glared

"But as you just said, even if we transfer him, he has less than a 0.1% chance of making it to Jasperion alive. If we transfer him now, wouldn't we be basically sending him to his death?" Vera questioned, immediately silencing the three specialists.She continued, "I know what you're worried about. If the patient dies in our care, it will also affect your reputation as doctors. All three of you are veterans in the industry with illustrious careers and a wealth of experience. Moreover, you'll soon be retiring. If a patient dies on you now, it will undoubtedly tarnish your prestige."But as you said, you became doctors to save lives. Well, a patient is in urgent need of your help right now. Yet, not only are you three not doing all you can to find a way to save him, but you even came running to me to suggest having him transferred. Do you consider this saving lives?"Ansel said ruefully, "We truly have no other options, Dr. Frost. Who's going to bear the responsibility if the patient

Cassian didn't seem to be listening to Vera's warnings. He simply continued inserting needles into Ernest."Just give up, Cassian! The dead can't come back to life. What you're doing won't change anything. Are you even listening to me, Cassian?"Vera kept trying to talk him out of it, but he didn't react in the slightest. Furious, she finally slapped him across the face. A crisp sound echoed through the room, and he now sported a bright red palm print on his cheek.Cassian's body trembled slightly from the pain, but he didn't stop trying to save Ernest. After inserting over a dozen silver needles into the patient's body, he quickly pressed a finger on a pressure point on the crown of Ernest's head.After about ten seconds, Cassian shouted, "Wake up!"At that very moment, Ernest's body convulsed. With a heave of his chest, a mouthful of dark blood spurted from his mouth.Cassian shouted urgently, "Quick! Begin the emergency procedures!"Terence stood frozen in shock. He couldn't

Lydia shook her head and said, "Certainly not. Only an idiot would do that.""Precisely. Cassian and Vera aren't idiots. If they really had anything to do with Shawn's disappearance, there's no way I'd get any worthwhile information from them," Donald said."In that case, what should we do now, Dr. Goff Sr.?" Lydia asked.Donald pondered for a moment before picking up the phone on his desk and making a call. "Dr. Frost, bring Cassian to my office immediately."Once he ended the call, his eyes gleamed with hostility.Confused by his actions, Lydia asked, "Dr. Goff Sr., didn't you just say they wouldn't be able to provide you with any worthwhile information? Why did you ask them to come over?""Why are you so full of useless questions?" Donald snapped irritably before waving her off. "You're not needed here anymore. Get out.""Okay."Lydia turned around and left. Once she was gone, Donald couldn't resist cursing under his breath, calling her a useless idiot.…Over at Vera's o

Chuckling, Donald said, "Since you brought a dead patient back to life, Cassian, I'm sure it's a piece of cake for you to treat a patient in a coma.""I'm just an ordinary human, Dr. Goff Sr. How can I have the power to bring the dead back to life? Please don't take those rumors seriously. As for Mr. Lane Sr., I'm afraid I won't be able to help," Cassian replied."You're putting me in a tough spot here, Cassian. I already gave Mr. Lane my word that you could treat his father," Donald said. "You probably don't know this yet, but Mr. Lane Sr.'s eldest son, Simon Lane, is the top government official in Rivershire."Cassian could barely stop himself from cursing out loud.Donald continued, "I also informed Mr. Lane about your promotion. He says that as long as you can treat Mr. Lane Sr., he'll make it worth your while.""And if I can't?""I'm sure you can.""Dr. Goff Sr., I'm sure you're aware that we're doctors, not gods. We can't treat every single condition, especially something
