ZK Hospital

The entrance of the hospital was crowded with people dressed in mourning attire, holding banners

The banners read, Incompetent doctors harm lives, return our loved ones.” 

The incompetent doctors harm lives, return our loved ones,shouted the leader, holding a megaphone

There were many onlookers around

However, no one from the hospital came out to address the situation

This had been going on for a few days, and initially, hospital staff members had come out to mediate

But now, no one paid any attention to the protesters

Incompetent doctors harm lives, return our loved ones.” 

Mr. Donovan, hello, I’m a lawyer from Justice Law Firm. My name is Join. Can we talk?” 

Sally stepped forward and revealed her identity directly to the leader

The leader glanced at Sally and coldly said, I have nothing to talk to you about. I want to talk to the person in charge of the hospital.”

I am here on behalf of the hospital management,” Sally smiled

The leader gave her another look, remained silent, and showed no intention of talking to Grace

Mr. Donovan, I am familiar with your situation, and I think it’s necessary for us to have a conversation. It will help resolve the matter more quickly, don’t you think?Sally suggested

Fine, we can talk, right here,the leader relaxed his tone

Sally nodded with a smile, Good!” 

Donovan, male, 35 years old, mother and son relationship with the deceased. Sandra, female, 65 years old, suffered from myocardial infarction and diabetes. On May 20th, she had a heart attack and was brought to the hospital for rescue, but the rescue was unsuccessful, and she passed away,Sally read the personal information she had about Donovan and the deceased Sandra

Mr. Donovan, did I state anything incorrectly?” 

Donovan nodded, then shook his head, Everything before that is correct, but the last sentence is wrong. It wasn’t an unsuccessful rescue that led to her death. It was the incompetence of the doctors in this hospital that killed her.” 

Mr. Donovan, sudden myocardial infarctions already had an 80% fatality rate,Sally corrected his statement

Donovan was exposed, and he instantly became irritated. You’re just a lawyer, what do you know? I won’t talk to you anymore.” 

After cursing, he picked up the megaphone again and resumed shouting

Incompetent doctors harm lives, return our loved ones.” 

Mr. Donovan, what is the situation exactly? You should be aware of it better than me. Your agitation seems to be aimed at pressuring the hospital for additional compensation, which falls beyond the hospital’s responsibilities. The hospital has already engaged me to handle this matter. You should be aware of the hospital’s stance. Are you certain you want to continue with this agitation?” 

Donovan completely disregarded her suggestion and continued shouting through a megaphone

Article 274 of the Criminal Law states that extortion and blackmailing public or private property, with a large amount or repeated instances. Shall be sentenced to imprisonment for less than three years, criminal detention, or control, and shall also be fined. If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, the punishment shall be imprisonment for three to ten years, and a fine. If the amount is 

exceptionally huge or there are other particularly serious circumstances, the punishment shall be imprisonment for more than ten years, and a fine.” 

As soon as Sally finished speaking, Donovan stopped and no longer shouted

Mr. Donovan, since I could come to see you, it naturally means I came prepared. Your mother, Sandra, was subjected to abuse by you on multiple occasions, and you even neglected her. It was one hour after your mother fell ill that you brought her to the hospital. After she was admitted, you

disappeared completely, and there is no evidence of you signing any documents. The hospital has provided sufficient evidence. Mr. Donovan, if you insist on continuing this commotion, we will proceed with legal procedures, and you may not even receive the compensation you currently have.” 

You’re talking nonsense!Donovan was feeling guilty, shouted loudly and threw the megaphone at Sally

Whoosh

The megaphone struck Sally’s eye corner directly, causing her to cry out in pain

Seeing this, Donovan and his group quickly ran away

Sally touched the injury on her eye corner and discovered that it was bleeding

Sally!” 

The cold and familiar voice made Sally’s body tense. She lifted her gaze and met Howard’s eyes directly

Seeing the long gash near her eye, just narrowly avoiding her eye, Howard’s icy gaze deepened, and a touch of anger appeared on his stern face

Sally, are you an idiot? Something was thrown at you, and you didn’t know how to dodge?Howard scolded

Sally didn’t say anything. She just didn’t expect Donovan to openly attack her

Indeed, she had been careless

A gold medal lawyer, but it seems like an empty reputation.”

Howard’s mocking words stung Sally’s heart. She endured the pain and looked at Howard. Mr. Logan, the case hasn’t been concluded yet, so how am I just an empty reputation?” 

We’ve just started, and you’re already making a mess of yourself. Are you sure you can handle it?Howard approached her

Seeing the wound on her forehead, his anger grew stronger on his face

He grabbed Sally’s hand and walked briskly towards the hospital

Mr. Logan, what are you doing?” 

Howard didn’t speak, he just pulled Sally along, walking quickly

Struggling to keep up, Sally could only run to catch up. The pain in her eye corner, combined with the hurried steps, made her feel dizzy

Suddenly, Howard made a sudden stop, and Sally didn’t react in time, crashing into Howard’s embrace

The faint scent of oldfashioned cologne was so familiar, it entered Sally’s nose and instantly opened up the longsealed chambers of her heart

Her heartbeat raced uncontrollably

Mr. Logan, what are you doing?Sally quickly took a step back, creating distance between her and Howard

This action deeply hurt Howard. Am I so filthy? That you have to avoid me like this?”

Howard’s approach made Sally instinctively take another step back

Sally!Howard reached out and embraced Sally, pulling her into his arms

What’s this? Are you playing a game of cat and mouse with me?” 

He didn’t know why, but he hated this feeling

He wanted Sally to stay far away from him, but seeing her evasive actions inexplicably annoyed him

Mr. Logan, I think it’s better for us to maintain some distance in our current relationship to avoid misunderstandings,Sally said, but she couldn’t even meet Howard’s gaze

Her heartbeat had skipped several beats

If it were in the past, being so close to Howard, she probably wouldn’t be able to sleep for several nights

But then, everything had changed

Howard’s hand around her waist tightened with more force. Misunderstandings? Who is this someoneyou’re talking 

about?” 

Mr. Logan, why do you ask such questions when you already know the answer?Sally feigned composure

Howard’s grip grew stronger, and Sally felt a slight twinge of pain

But she dared not struggle. The current position they were in was simply too intimate
