The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1706

But the patient wasn't dead yet, and Gloria was struggling to convince the family to pull the plug.

The family firmly believed in bodily integrity and refused to donate the patient's heart.

Gloria's client was likely growing impatient, leading to a fierce argument with her partner.

The partner accused her of incompetence, while she fired back, calling them reckless and greedy.

"This hospital belongs to Dewitt. I can't just act recklessly. If you think you can do better, why don't you apply for a job here yourself?"

"I'd love to see how you manipulate the families!"

Usually, Gloria relied on a mix of sweet-talking and deceit to convince desperate families to abandon treatment, donate the organs, and quietly finalize the sale.

The patient saved the family a massive medical debt while securing a hefty payout.

It was entirely consensual on both sides.

She walked away with a massive broker's fee, and the family solved their financial ruin.

As for the patients, knowing they were leaving their loved ones with a massive nest egg made it easier to let go.

Gloria had no idea her perfect cover was already blown.

When her screaming yielded no response, raw panic set in.

"Is anyone there?! Help!"

Gloria didn't have a booming voice, but she screamed as if her life depended on it.

Terrified that she was about to be burned alive or carved up for her kidneys, heart, and liver, she lost control and wet herself in sheer horror.

Finally, Stephen threw off his white sheet and sat straight up.

The sudden movement nearly gave Gloria a heart attack.

"Ah! Who the hell are you?!"
