"Oh..."

Maisie felt completely lost, unable to grasp the situation's severity. Could a nurse's name mix-up be this serious? Nina's words appeared to carry a deeper significance.

Daniel, offering comfort, wrapped his arm around Maisie's shoulders and softly suggested, "Let's go home."

Maisie nodded.

They left, shared lunch, and later relaxed on the couch to watch a movie.

It was only in the afternoon, when Maisie expressed her desire to visit the library, that Daniel mentioned some business to attend to at his company.

After dropping her off at the library, he quickly returned to the hospital.

The examination room's door remained tightly shut, with guards posted outside, and Hazel stood frozen in the same spot he had left her.

Upon seeing him, Nina politely smiled and said, "Mr. Quimby, it might be best if you ask her directly... While she's my student, her conduct hardly aligns with what's expected of a competent healthcare worker." Daniel elegantly fiddled with a lighter while seated in a chair. The room was eerily quiet, and the tension was evident, almost freezing the world.

Hazel shivered uncontrollably, her body covered in chills. Under Daniel's stern gaze, the pressure felt worse than death itself. Eventually, she couldn't endure it any longer and knelt before him, pleading, "Mr. Quimby, I'm... I'm so sorry. Please forgive me. I didn't do it on purpose."

"Forgive you?" Daniel sneered. "Please elaborate. I didn't quite catch that. What should I forgive you for? Forgiving you for deceiving Maisie into coming here for an examination?

"Or..." He gestured, and his subordinate swiftly retrieved Maisie's examination report from a nearby drawer and thrust it at Hazel's face. "Forgiving you for planning to show her all of this?!"

"I didn't mean to! It wasn't my intention!" Hazel sobbed while trembling, "Mr. Quimby, I truly made a mistake. I... I was just too fatigued yesterday and mixed up the patients' names."

"Tell me who ordered you to do this, and I might contemplate forgiveness."

Hazel remained silent, gazing blankly at him.

"You're still in your internship," Daniel coldly remarked. "If you lose this job, how will you support your younger brother, who's still in university? If your younger brother misses his chance to graduate, will your parents still acknowledge you as their daughter?"

At that moment, despair filled Hazel's eyes.

After a brief silence, she managed to speak with great difficulty. "It was... Mr. Bayer. He instructed me to find an opportunity to reveal Ms. Squire's previous medical records to her, to make her aware of what kind of person she used to be."

Daniel's expression darkened suddenly.

"What did he offer you in return?"

"He paid me 4,000 dollars..."

"Did he say anything else?"

"No..." Hazel shook her head. "Mr. Bayer simply wanted Ms. Squire to know that she had been pregnant before, had had a pregnancy induction, and that she used to be... impure."

Daniel's eyes blazed with anger, and he clenched his fists.
