Chapter 278
Lorenzo froze on the spot, staring blankly at Willow on the bed. After a moment, she turned over and fell back asleep. It turned out she was dreaming.
He had planned to leave, but for some inexplicable reason, he pulled a chair over and sat beside the bed.
It was already late. In an hour or two, the early light began to seep through the gap in the curtains. Dawn was breaking.
After watching Willow sleep for a while, Lorenzo finally
y got up and left.
As dawn approached, Shannon carried a cup of coffee to her office.
Last night, Lawrence organized some materials, and she helped with some research before going to bed.
Knowing there would be many messages to check today, she quickly had breakfast and hurried to her office with her coffee.
Seeing someone at the office door, Shannon stopped in her tracks, and her expression turned cold.
Jessie stood at the door, wearing a brown woolen long dress and wrapped in a thick shawl It looked like she had been waiting for a while
Seeing that Shannon had no intention of approaching her, Jessie had no choice but to step forward. “Shannon, you came to work so early
She had already guessed Shannon would arrive early.
Last night, she accompanied her husband to the hospital for a diagnosis. Following the procedure, they admitted him to the cardiology department, where he was assigned to the medical team led by Lorrand. The efficiency was impeccable, leaving them with no complaints. Moreover, Lorrand was currently the most skilled doctor at the hospital.
Jessie, who had been following the news online regarding the hospital, specifically came to find Shannon.
Not knowing Shannon’s dormitory, she inquired with the staff and was only given her office address. She assumed that Shannon would be working overtime under such circumstances as the technical director.
“Is there something you need, Mrs. Moore?” Shannon’s tone was distant,
The Moore family had decided to acknowledge her as their daughter. Shannon accepted this, and she had slightly more patience with Jessie.
Jessie said, “Your father has been admitted to VVIP608. If you have time, you could visit him. He really wants to see you.”
“Okay” Shannon replied blandly. She had found a way to deal with them, simply coping as long as they did not interfere with her important
maller.
Shannon scrutinized Jessie. Seeing Jessie had nothing more to say, Shannon walked toward her office
Jessie called out again, “Shannon. You should resign.
Jessie had investigated the situation at the hospital. Stunnon had signed an employment contract and was a formal employee in a key position. If the hospital was in trouble, she couldn’t escape responsibility.
Given the hospital’s current situation, the consequences could range from imprisonment to a life sentence or even the death penalty. The Moore family couldn’t have such a blemish.
Shannon’s anger flared, her fists clenching.
Even though the mix–up at birth was not Jessie’s fault, Jessie had done nothing for her since she learned the truth. She had no right to interfere in her decision. But soon, Shannon’s fists relaxed.
Shannon asked, “Oh, why?”
Jessie replied, “Shannon, I’m your mother…”
a cold glare.
Jessir swallowed hard. “If you continue working here, you’ll be implicated with the hospital”
Shannon’s anger intensified. Jessie had already judged the hospital without knowing the truth. They never cared about the truth, only their
Hearing that, Shannon instinctively
Shannon asked, “Is that so! Then isn’t it dangerous for Mr. Moore to come here for treatment?”
Jessie said, “Shannon, your father is different. He.. The hospital scandal didn’t concern him.

That’s strange. You question the hospital yet trust its medical skills. Mrs. Moore, how do you manage that?” Shannon stared at Jessic
ssie felt a shock in her chest as if struck heavily. She was momentarily speechless.
Please leave. I have work to do.” Shannon moved past her and headed to her office.
Shannon!” Jessie called out, but security was approaching from the end of the corridor, She had just reached the office door.
irs. Moore, is there a problem?” the security guard asked sternly
No… She understood Shannon’s stance. Continuing the conversation was pointless
Essie couldn’t understand why Shannon didn’t listen to her. Frustrated, she felt uncomfortable.
hannon entered her office, placed her coffee on the table, and checked for information online. Nothing had come in from Lea, so she didn’t need
investigate further.
Sloticing Jessic had left, Shannon felt relieved. The security guard had been assigned by the hospital to protect her from the Moore family’s
nerference.
d to visit Lorrand
Checking her watch, she decided to
In the director’s office, Lorrand had just organized Quintin’s medical records.
Lea had already informed Lorrand about using the smart pacemaker on Quintin to promote its market entry, requiring Lorrand to collaborate with the research team. He hadn’t slept all night and was planning to catch up on rest.
Then, he heard someone knocking on his door. “Come in,” he called out
Shannon entered and saw his bloodshot eyes, feeling a twinge of guilt.
There shouldn’t be any major issues if there was no news about Yannis She thought she shouldn’t take up more of Lorrand’s time, but she couldn’t help coming.
“Yannis is fine, Lorrand said directly.
He was experienced and could read Shannon’s thoughts. He had been wondering how to convey the news to her, but she had come on her own.
Lorrand said, “It was a normal injury from a boxing match. Although it is serious, he has taken medicine, and being in detention will allow him to rest well. You know his physical condition. He will recover quickly.”
He was trying to comfort her. Realistically, recovery wouldn’t be so quick. It wouldn’t be fatal, but only a boxing champion’s willpower could endure
