Capítulo 384: Chapter 376: You Have Been Expelled
Emily Parker’s heart trembled, full of surprise.
She hadn’t expected Carlos to ask her opinion at this mont, his tone like they weren’t divorced, completely trusting her.
After the divorce, the two hadn’t had such calm monts to talk; the last ti they t at the kindergarten gate, they were as hostile as enemies.
“I trust your expertise.”
Carlos t her gaze, his voice deep and resolute. He had never forgotten that back when he hovered at the edge of life and death, Emily was the one who saved him.
If there was anyone in the world who could save Grandpa, it could only be the “Ghost Doctor.”
Emily took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping over the bottle of new dicine, and she slowly shook her head, “I don’t agree with using this dicine on Grandpa.”
As soon as these words ca out, Mrs. Carter, Rainny White, and Evan Palr’s faces changed simultaneously.
“Emily, this is the only hope to save Old Master Carter!”
Rainny White was anxious. When she saw Emily at the hospital, she didn’t pay attention, thinking a divorced woman couldn’t stir up trouble, but Carlos’s trust in Emily completely disrupted her plans.
“What right do you have to object? You’re no longer part of the Carter Family!” Mrs. Carter was so angry that her cane trembled, raising it to hit Emily. “You jinx, you hard the Carter Family back then, and now you dare co to harm us again!”
The scene instantly spiraled out of control. Just as the cane was about to fall, Little Eve suddenly rushed forward, blocking the cane, and shouted with her flushed little face, “You can’t hit Aunt Emily! Aunt Emily is a good person!”
Upon hearing the words Aunt Emily, Emily was shocked.
Seeing the cane about to hit Evelyn Prescott, both Emily and Carlos almost moved at the sa ti.
Carlos stepped out swiftly to block the two, while Emily quickly caught Mrs. Carter’s swinging wrist.
Her fingers seed to accidentally brush against an acupuncture point at Mrs. Carter’s wrist, causing her arm to suddenly weaken, and she sat on the ground with an “Ouch,” the cane clattering to the floor.
“Mom!” “Eve!” Evan Palr and Mrs. Carter both rushed toward the two.
Evan Palr helped Mrs. Carter, turning to look at Emily with eyes full of venom and gritted teeth, “How dare you hit soone? If anything happens to the Old Lady, I’ll have you pay with your life!”
“Everyone stop arguing!”
Doctor Reed suddenly stepped forward, holding up the dicine bottle with an indisputable firmness, “This dicine is indeed from the Sterling Research Institute! With the Old Master’s current condition, only using it presents a chance!”
He harbored a hidden agenda; if the Old Master wakes after using the dicine, it would beco the first successful case of brain cell regeneration globally, and Love & Kindness Hospital would garner fa, naturally elevating his status.
Perhaps he could even beco x’s student soday!
Rainny White imdiately seized the opportunity to agree, looking at Carlos, “Brother Carter, don’t be deceived! Emily fears this dicine will revive Grandpa and secure my place with you and the Carter Family, replacing her position, so she purposely obstructs! She isn’t acting for Grandpa’s good, she’s obviously selfish!”
Carlos frowned slightly, hesitating.
He wished for Grandpa to wake more than anyone; if this dicine was genuinely the result of the Sterling Research Institute, there might indeed be hope.
“You say this dicine is from the Sterling Research Institute, what proof do you have?”
Emily suddenly turned to Doctor Reed, her tone sharp, directly questioning.
Evan Palr imdiately burst into a laugh, his eyes filled with contempt, “Emily, how ridiculous! Doctor Reed needs no proof; he himself is a researcher at the Sterling Research Institute. That’s the best evidence!”
Emily smirked coldly, “He’s rely a temporary researcher at the Sterling Research Institute, not even a full-ti employee.”
“How do you…” Doctor Reed’s heart jolted, his face instantly paler, his eyes full of shock.
He had never disclosed this matter externally; the rules at the Sterling Research Institute were stringent, requiring three years and substantial results to transition into a full-ti researcher; he was a whole month short of the tenure.
How could it be known that upon hearing about his identity, Emily imdiately emailed the institute to verify, and had already received a reply.
“What’s all this about official and temporary!” Evan Palr, seeing Doctor Reed silent, thought he was angered by the questioning, hastily bridged, scolding Emily, “Doctor Reed, a renowned expert, how could he be temporary? I think you don’t understand anything, yet pretend here! This dicine must be used on the Old Master!”
“Indeed, this dicine must be used!”
Doctor Reed’s expression grew increasingly resolute, to successfully transition in a month’s ti, he must grasp this “achievent” firmly and couldn’t let Emily ruin it.
As soon as he spoke, he imdiately waved to the nurse at the door, handing over the dicine bottle, “Hurry, take it for Old Master Carter’s injection.”
Rainny White stood on one side, unable to suppress the excitent on her face, already calculating in her mind: As long as this dicine is administered, and the Old Master wakes up, the Carter Family would certainly appreciate her, and Carlos would surely see her differently.
“Wait! This dicine can’t be administered!”
Emily’s figure swayed, instantly blocking in front of the nurse, snatching the dicine bottle from the nurse’s hand, her voice cold and sharp, “After this dicine is injected, the Old Master might temporarily wake, but within three days, he would die from nerve exhaustion!”
“What nonsense are you spouting!” Evan Palr jumped in rage, pointing at Emily and angrily shouted, “Dare to spread fear here! I’ll report you to the police, have you arrested, and snatch the dicine back!” Saying this, he pulled out his phone, pretending to dial.
Rainny White also panicked, the excitent on her face instantly turned to chaos, yet she still stubbornly argued, “Emily, how can you slander , this dicine is indeed life-saving! Doctor Reed can prove my words! Is it possible that Doctor Reed and the Sterling Research Institute would deceive people?”
“Do you dare defa the Sterling Research Institute? You simply don’t know your place! Prepare for an international lawsuit!” Doctor Reed’s face turned livid, his chest heaving intensely.
This Ghost Doctor not only ruins his plans but dares defa the Sterling Research Institute, which is entirely intolerable. He must inform the Sterling Research Institute about her audacious behavior, having her na erased from the dical community.
“He can’t represent the Sterling Research Institute, nor is this dicine a product of the Sterling Research Institute.”
Emily toyed with the dicine bottle in her hand, her tone calm yet filled with confidence.
“Ridiculous! You dare question my identity and the institute’s dicine?”
Doctor Reed trembled with rage, just about to continue his reproach when the phone in his pocket suddenly rang urgently.
He imdiately answered it, recognizing the caller ID, his voice instantaneously respectful: “Hello, is this the Administrative Departnt of the Sterling Research Institute? I’m Lucas Reed, yes, I’m at…”
Before he could finish speaking, the color abruptly drained from his face, his pupils constricting sharply, and his voice took on a tremor: “You said what? I’ve been expelled from the Sterling Research Institute?”
