They shared a guilty look.

Nella’s confident tone made the group of people who’d taken money instinctively uneasy.

“You… what are you talking about? We just couldn’t stand your behavior, so we came here to seek justice. What money? Don’t you dare slander us like this.”

“Whether you took money or not, you know the truth. Now please leave.”

At the same time, hospital security arrived.

Although the scene had quieted down, Nella knew that whatever she or Caleb had just said would be twisted and sensationalized by those unscrupulous media outlets and posted online.

She looked at the old man beside her, who was red in the face with anger, and said worriedly, “Professor Fred, once those tabloids release what you just said, who knows how they’ll spin it? I’m sorry for dragging you into this.”

“Hmph!”

Caleb snorted dismissively. “You think I’m afraid of them? Back when I was young, if they dared to say those things, I would’ve knocked their teeth out.”

As soon as Caleb finished speaking, applause immediately erupted around them.

“Professor Fred, you’re so cool!”

Caleb was surprised.

He felt embarrassed by the praise and smiled awkwardly and waved at them.

Turning back to Nella, he continued, “Don’t worry. I’m still alive and kicking. I won’t let them bully you.”

Nella was amused by Caleb’s protective attitude.

Her heart felt warm.

“Thank you, Professor Fred.”

“I’ve already arranged for several doctors, both inside and outside the hospital, to conduct a comprehensive examination and analysis of Patrick’s condition. Don’t worry–I had a few old colleagues review your surgery footage together. There won’t be any problems. The issue must be somewhere else.”

Caleb comfortingly patted Nella’s shoulder and continued, “But regarding those other comments about you online…”
