The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1184

"When they said they called you in, I honestly thought they were joking. I can't believe you're actually here."

Tandy eagerly waved Claire over.

Claire seamlessly closed the distance between them.

"What the hell is going on here? My father is in critical condition, and instead of trying to save him, you're all just standing around whispering?"

It was Claire's first time crossing paths with the rest of the Darwin family.

She hadn't expected to be greeted by someone throwing a massive temper tantrum the second she walked in.

The man screaming was Silas, Reggie's father.

He was clearly oblivious to how things worked—anyone who had been summoned to the hospital at this hour was an absolute heavyweight in their field.

Seeing how young Claire was, he immediately assumed she was an easy target.

Unable to bully the seasoned veterans and too cowardly to offend the actual power players, he decided to unleash his fury on Claire.

Claire took one calculated look at Silas, instantly categorizing him as a man whose body had been hollowed out by years of reckless indulgence.

He wasn't even worth a second glance.

Tandy completely ignored Silas's outburst as well.

He focused entirely on briefing Claire about General Darwin's current vitals.

"Honestly, our professional recommendation is for the family to let him go. If we push for surgery, the General's body won't survive the operating table."

"We could attempt conservative treatments to stabilize him, but the family needs to be prepared for the absolute worst at any moment."

Silas refused to listen to the Vice President's logic, opting to roar instead. "Then get on the phone and fly in a different team of specialists! If you useless hacks can't do it, does that mean every doctor on earth is incompetent?!"

He was utterly convinced the hospital management was just sending their bottom-tier staff to brush them off.

They clearly wanted to see the Darwin family fall, which was why they were dragging their feet.

How else could his primary doctor miraculously be unreachable?

And why would they call in some rookie in his place?

A young woman, no less. What could she possibly accomplish?

Silas was practically pointing his finger straight into Claire's face.

But Claire wasn't about to coddle his fragile ego.

"Should I just leave then?"

The Vice President was absolutely stunned by the ice in Claire's voice.

The girl had an unbreakable spine.
