Chapter 6 Emergency and the Devil
“Okay.” Liam agreed and left with Ava.
“I came and have something else to tell you.” Liam’s voice suddenly sank, and his expression as he looked at the end of the road was one of gravity.
For no reason at all, Ava had a sense of foreboding over her heart and waited nervously for Liam to speak. Because Liam was a very stable person, Ava had never seen him with this expression.
“Lilac Hospital has suddenly been acquired.” Liam’s voice was magnetic and low, still as warm as the spring breeze, but the words in his mouth, but the Ava body chills.
“What do you mean? From now on, Brother Liam is no longer the dean?” Ava asked with a somewhat white face, couldn’t help but stop and listen carefully to Liam, if Liam was no longer the dean, Ava’s future days might be much tougher.
“Not only that, there is worse news for you.” Liam looked at Ava’s white face, a trace of heartache flashed under his eyes, he could be the director, he didn’t care, he cared about this matter entirely because of Ava. Lilac Hospital is going to become a private noble hospital, the previous patients will be given USD 5, 000 compensation after, then have to transfer to another hospital.”
The breeze of the Autumn was so cold, cold refreshing, cold let Ava shiver.
Lilac Hospital was the cheapest public hospital in all of Blue Whale City. But even if it became private, where would her father move to? Lilac Hospitals cost was the lowest in the city, but if he was transferred to another hospital, the cost would be much higher.
How could she afford to the medical expenses?
The news was like a bolt from the blue, making Ava feel like the sky was spinning and shaking.
“Ava, pull yourself together!” Liam was quick to help Ava, his eyes full of concern, he already knew that she would not accept the bad news. But looking at her helpless look, his heart ached and could not breathe.
“How could this… happen?” Why would God play tricks on her like this? She had struggled for so many years, thinking that one day she would reach the end, but after her father got sick, her life became even more difficult. Ava thought that, after persevering through her senior year, she would be able to find a job to support her family. But she was only in her third year, she had no way out…
“Can’t we just wait…” Couldn t God just wait for her to graduate and give her a way out?
Liam looked at Ava’s almost desperate face and felt indescribably uncomfortable.
“Ding dong dong…” the nice piano music ringing suddenly rang. Liam was slightly stunned, patted Ava’s shoulder to cheer her up, and pull out the phone with another hand.
“Hello? Uncle…” Liam’s uncle, whom Ava knew, was the owner of Lilac Hospital, with no children. Although Liam was the director, but the right of ownership was still in the hands of Liam’s uncle.
“What? Uncle! Why so suddenly!” Liam’s voice suddenly became louder, and his eyes were full of surprise.
Ava’s heart was steeply tightened, her hands were interlaced in her heart, clenched, her fingertips were white, she was so afraid that there would be even more news that would leave her with no way out.
“What about the patient! I’ll be right there!” Liam said nervously, then hung up the phone and turned back to Ava and said, “No, Ava, my uncle has already signed the acquisition contract in the morning. Tell me to hand over everything in three days…” For the first time, Liam felt so useless that he couldn’t help her.
“Three days,” only three days, where was she going to find a hospital? Even if she found one. How was she going to carry the even heavier medical bills? God, how could she be treated so cruelly.
“Brother Liam, really, is there no way out?” So strong, she could no longer find a little courage at this moment, for the first time she begged Liam for help.
Liam’s heart was as heavy as a boulder, unable to speak, and shook his head. “The worse thing now is not this, the acquisition company requires all patients at Lilac Hospital to be moved by tonight, and renovations will begin tomorrow.” Suddenly, he thought there was still time to help Ava make other plans, but found that things were even worse than he had originally thought.
“Oh my God,” Ava just felt her feet go weak and her whole body had fallen to the ground.
“Ava, there is no time to fret, we have to get to the hospital!” With that, Liam grabbed Ava and got into the car not far away.
In the distance, a 60 million dollars worth of Lamborghini Hermes, a pair of eyes like a hawk, coldly stared at the two peoples actions, until the two people disappeared, then coldly ordered “follow.”
“Yes.” The driver, like a most cold-hearted Praetorian Guard, darted away without a moments hesitation.
“See? That’s a Lamborghini Hermes… worth 60 million dollars,” said the driver at the entrance of the school, some drivers who came to pick up the noble young masters could not help but stare and the driver in the car next to them.
The driver also stuck his head out with a shocked look “I thought our young master was the richest in Blue Whale City, I really want to know who the hell is that person in the car?”
Then, the Lamborghini disappeared at the end of the street like a silver light, but in the hearts of those who saw it, there was a kind of fatal excitement. And everyone knew it the people in the car must be very rich.
Lilac Hospital.
Ava and Liam got out of the car and ran all the way into the hospital, where the entrance was filled with nurses who were helping patients move out, and some staff members who were not from the hospital shuttled in.
“All hurry up and help, the hospital must be vacated tonight, the president requested that it be converted into a private noble hospital tomorrow.” A man in a black suit at the entrance of the hospital, standing straight, motionlessly ordering his people, directing those who pushed away the instruments from his side.
Ava’s nerves were shattered in that moment, and she rushed up to him in stride, “Who are you? Robber? Why do you want us to move out before tonight? It’s almost dark, where do you want the patients to go?”
She couldn t leave! Even if it’s only for one night, she would fight and get more time, for further arrangements.Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Ava yelled to stop, but the man simply did not move, nodded to the assistant beside him to hand a pile of bills.
“Here is the compensation, 5, 000 dollars, enough to shut your mouth.” The assistant gave Ava a blank look, he had seen a lot of these people, just now there were countless family members to argue, USD 5, 000 were taken care of. This was a great thing, according to common sense, the hospital had signed a purchase agreement, there was no need to take into account the patient, but the boss was so generous, so they do not need to bow to the patients.
Ava looked at the bill handed to her by the small assistant and just felt solid.
“$5, 000 dollars in compensation? Ha! Who are you acting that? Just because you have money doesn’t mean you’re rich!” She was poor and short of money, but she was not a stray dog that anyone could get rid of!
The corner of the man’s mouth twitched as his expression remained unchanged, “You this shameless woman better learn to satisfy.”
“Ava, calm down.” Liam had never seen Ava look so uncontrollable, and he knew that she could not take this kind of blow anymore.
Liam stood across from the man and said to him, “I am the director of this hospital and the nephew of Mr. John Martin, although you bought Lilac Hospital, the time to transfer the patients was too short. Some of the patients have not been able to settle in yet, and as the director, I feel I need to ask you to give the patients an extra day.” Liam’s unprecedented seriousness and serious expression forced the other party to face his question squarely.
“Are you Director Martin?” the man asked with some disbelief, the words turned, “We are also under orders to act, as for other things, we can not manage.” The man still did not change his face, his voice indifferent, as if it was a thunderbolt continued to say “Our chairman naturally knows that he is sorry for the patients, has tried to compensate, 5, 000 dollars is already quite a lot, and… before you came, the other patients have agreed. ” The man smiled, like a great mockery of Liam’s proposal.
Liam couldn’t help but gnash his teeth “You’ve gone too far! I am still the director of this hospital! I have the right to ask you to leave this place now! One day later, come back here!” Liam’s original image of a prince exploded into a burst of anger.
Ava felt as if Liam was the only one left in the world that she could rely on. Standing by Liam’s side, she felt her courage come together again, as long as he was there, she was not afraid of anything.
Liam’s words could not help but make the man across the table slightly silent, and the assistant beside him blanched a bit, as if he did not know what to say.
“You are no longer the director of this hospital.”
Suddenly, a voice as cold as a thousand years of ice, enough to make the whole world is frozen sounded, so that people all over the aura of cold, so that the dead have to look back.
