So In the meeting room at the hospital.
The expert representatives from each hospital watched Edbert's operation.
They could see that there were many problems throughout the entire process.
The operation wouldn't have failed if the doctor hadn't accepted the bribe.
"The main surgeons of Edbert Royden's have handed in resignation letters.
They denied that they received money, but we have evidence.
We can file in a sue any time.” The director pushed a document toward Edgar apologetically.
"Mr. Royden, | apologize for not keeping my word about this treatment.
All of this happened due to my poor supervision.
I'll hand in my resignation after dealing with this matter: All in the room rose to their feet and bowed apologetically.
"We admit that, as the hospital, we are responsible for this matter.
We will do our best to coordinate and solve this issue." Before they finished speaking, they heard a knock on the door.
As the door opened, George pushed Edbert, in a wheelchair, into the room.
His face was pale as he hadn't completely recovered.
He raised a hand weakly.
"It must have been tiring dealing with this matter.
| thank all of you for your efforts.” Edgar, sitting on the right, looked on frostily.
Edbert didn't seem to notice his expression.
The wheelchair rolled forward.
He spoke slowly to the people in the room.
"I'm already this old.
Anything could have happened on the operating table.
I...
have no intention of looking into this anymore.” It was a generous statement.
The doctors sighed in relief.
If the patient didn't want to pursue the matter further, there was nothing else to do.
It was beneficial for them, as their reputation wouldn't be affected.
Their expression looking at Edbert was like that of one admiring their gods.
"Mr. Edbert, we thank you for your consideration!” He coughed a few times before putting on a faint smile.
“It's alright.
I'm aware of my situation.
It's good enough | survived the operation table.” Edgar swept his eyes across the room stonily.
The hospital representative thought Edgar was trying to get justice and compensation for his uncle as a nephew.
"Even though Mr. Edbert says so, we will still give our best for the rest of the treatment.
We will also pay for all of the fees.” The hospital would do anything to keep the news under wraps.
Edgar stood up as the representative finished speaking.
“Edgar, everything's over.
There's no point in pursuing who's responsible for this.” Edbert spoke up for the hospital.
In truth, the media was aiming for Jean.
If Edbert didn't want to investigate the matter, no one would shed light on the truth.
George stood next to Edbert.
"Mr. Edbert, it's time for your drip.” The hospital staff surrounded Edbert worriedly when he coughed again.
"Mr. Edbert, you must take good care of yourself." With how they reacted, it was surprising they didn't escort him back to his room.
At that moment, only a few doctors noticed Edgar's expression.
They shot each other a look and hurriedly turned around.
"Mr. Edgar, next time we will.” "No.
Royden Group's lawyers will be in touch.
This issue must be investigated thoroughly.’ He refused to compromise.
He couldn't let Jean's reputation get stained by the rumor.
Edbert heard the conversation through the door.
