Phoebe swayed unsteadily, her jaws clamped tight in sheer rage.

She turned around, her eyes glistening with tears, and looked at Margaret with a helpless, pitiful expression. “Ms. Greene, my daily expenses are quite high. My three partners are all A-class males, and I truly cannot afford to give away large sums of credits.”

Margaret lifted her chin and spoke in a sharp tone. “Oh? So are you saying all those words about not caring for credits and devoting yourself selflessly were nothing but lies? Or do you only talk big about charity, yet pretend to be poor the moment you are asked to actually spend money?”

Every media camera swiveled to focus directly on Phoebe’s face.

The reporter seized the hot story at once and fired off one question after another. “Ms. James, did you make that proposal just to grab public attention? As an S-class female with a generous monthly subsidy, why do you keep making excuses when it comes to real action?”

Phoebe had nowhere left to retreat. Her voice rose sharply out of panic. “Fine. I’ll do it. I will donate half of my subsidy, too.”

“That’s the spirit,” Margaret said and clapped her hands in satisfaction. “Everyone here heard that, and the media have recorded it all. Ms. James will donate half her monthly income to the Survival Guarantee Fund for Low-Rank Females. Let us applaud her generosity.”

A sparse round of applause broke out. To Phoebe’s ears, the sound stung far worse than a slap across the face.

She had lost her easy volunteer position and been forced into unpaid work. On top of that, half her regular subsidy was now gone. She felt pushed to the edge of despair.

Cheiron stood steadily beside Margaret. He watched the clever female corner her opponent step by step, and the amusement in his eyes grew stronger.

He glanced at the time on his Holo-bracelet and stepped forward to end the awkward scene. “That is enough for today’s interview. The hospital still has plenty of work to attend to. Ms. James, please report to the HR office of the purification department at eight tomorrow morning to complete your employment paperwork. Any late arrival will result in points being deducted from your performance evaluation. You will receive no salary for this role, and failure to meet assessment standards will lead to a formal public reprimand across the entire hospital.”

Those words were the final blow for Phoebe.

Her eyes rolled back, and she fainted completely. The surrounding males rushed over in a fluster and carried her toward the emergency room.

The crowd dispersed soon after, and the reporters left happily with their exclusive news.

Silence settled over the corridor once again.

Margaret stretched her body and turned to Cheiron. “Nice teamwork back there, Mr. Jewett.”

Cheiron looked down at her, his tone gentle, “Your proposal benefits everyone. As the hospital director, I

am naturally glad to offer my full support.”

Margaret was about to nod when her Holo-bracelet vibrated violently on her wrist.

She glanced down and saw Timothy’s name flashing on the screen.

Margaret answered the call, and a holographic image popped up instantly. The young man with blond hair and blue eyes leaned close to the display.

Timothy’s voice was bright and energetic, carrying clearly across the line. “My Lady, I just watched your live stream on Starnet. You were amazing putting that old woman in her place.”

Margaret’s mouth twitched. Phoebe was still a young and attractive S-class female, yet Timothy had spoken of her like an older woman.

Margaret got straight to the point. “What did you call for?”

“I saw you planned to donate money,” Timothy said with a wide grin. “How could I, your mate, stand by and do nothing while you do charity work? I’ve told my finance team to prepare fifty million credits. We will transfer the funds as soon as the fund is officially set up, and we’ll put both our names on the donation. Aren’t I great?”

Fifty million credits were an enormous amount.

Margaret was stunned by how casually Timothy spent his wealth.

Before she could reply, Timothy leaned even closer and lowered his voice, sounding a little lonely. “My Lady, when will you be back? The house is so quiet and boring without you. The personal chef I brought over has arrived, too. Come home and have dinner with us.”

Cheiron stood nearby and heard every word, but he kept quiet.
