Chapter 240 Troubled Waters.
We can’t even make it through a week?
Liam’s brows furrowed. “Old Mr. Quiroz, is there any way for us to manage at least a week?”
He was confident that within just a week, Jerome Medical Clinic would be completely defeated, never to open its doors again.
Kenneth thought for a moment and said, “There is a solution, which is to increase the number of doctors on duty. However, the cost at this time…”
Upon mentioning this, Kenneth fell silent.
However, Liam understood what he meant. “Old Mr. Quiroz, please make the arrangements. Anyone willing to come, we will pay them four times their usual salary!”
“All right; I’ll get in touch now.”
Upon receiving Liam’s promise, Kenneth immediately made a phone call.
After making several phone calls in a row, Kenneth’s expression turned somewhat awkward. “Mr. Sable, perhaps you should consider transferring staff from the hospitals and clinics under Regi Group.”
Liam frowned. “Are they unwilling?”
Kenneth replied, “I’ve reached out to a few people to work part-time at the clinic, but they told me that the Department of Health just issued a notice. The Jadeborough medical system is under strict scrutiny right now, and no medical staff are allowed to practice outside of their own workplaces! Otherwise, their medical practice license will be revoked, and no healthcare system should employ them!”
Upon hearing this, Liam’s frown deepened. “Isn’t that too much of a coincidence?”
Although the Department of Health conducted strict inspections once or twice a year, Liam felt that this. one was too much of a coincidence.
Kenneth said, “Mr. Sable, there’s no room for manipulation in the notice from the Department of Health. You should consider other options. Otherwise, even if we work around the clock, it won’t help!”
He paused before suggesting. “Perhaps we should cancel the free medical treatment? Otherwise, starting from tomorrow, the number of people coming will definitely exceed ten thousand. That’s a number even a large hospital can’t accommodate!”
Liam suddenly became emotional. “No, it can’t be cancelled!”
I’ve just started targeting Finnegan, so I can’t cancel this plan now! I’d be making a laughing stock of myself if I do! I simply cannot afford to lose to Finnegan!
Kenneth was curious as to why Liam was so agitated, but he didn’t probe further. “Even if you manage to mobilize people from the Regi Group, you might only be able to get by today. What about tomorrow? Even if you manage to get by tomorrow, what will you do the day after?”
As the news of free medical consultations at Hopevale Medical Clinic spread like wildfire, the number of patients coming in would only increase with each passing day.
That was not something a clinic could handle.
This could even implicate the reputation of Regi Group, causing a major stock market crash.
Liam’s brows were furrowed as he, too, realized the gravity of continuing with the free treatment.
Even so, he was truly unwilling to just give up like this. F*ck you, Finnegan!”
If he had known that Finnegan would add fuel to the fire, he would never have used this method.
He was caught between a rock and a hard place.
“Mr. Sable, why don’t we listen to Old Mr. Quiroz? If not, the number of patients will only increase, and we won’t be able to treat them all. It will only make us look bad!” Hailey suggested.
Upon hearing this, Liam found himself caught in a struggle of indecision.
Just as he was hesitating about what to do, a clinic nurse rushed in and said, “Mr. Sable, Old Mk Quiroz, the media would like to interview you.”
Jam frowned. “How did the media get here?”
The nurse replied, “They said they heard about Regi Group’s clinic offering free medical consultations and medicine to patients, so they’re planning to do a special feature on it.”
“I can’t hold it in any longer! I really can’t!”
Inside Jerome Medical Clinic across the-street, Shaun burst out laughing as he continued, “Liam is practically forced to suffer in silence!”
Zephyr clicked his tongue and said, “Finnegan, you’re quite the cunning one!”
Finnegan chuckled mysteriously. “What did you say?”
Cough, cough, cough!
Zephyr coughed dryly a few times as he replied, “I didn’t say anything. I just feel that Liam is quite the unlucky one.”
Only then did Finnegan nod in satisfaction. “Watch your words. And don’t say that Mr. Sable is unlucky. He and Regi Group have received nothing but praise. Both his personal and corporate image have skyrocketed!”
At this point, Finnegan flicked his hair back and said, “Where in the world can you find someone like me? Someone who can put past grudges aside and magnanimously help those who despise him?”
Upon hearing this, everyone fell silent, all eyes on Finnegan.
You? Magnanimous? You are using your connections to cut off the external support for Hopevale Medical Clinic from the Department of Health. You even secretly arranged for media personnel and some patients to excessively praise Liam, putting him in a difficult position where he couldn’t back down. Is this what you call magnanimity?
Of course, everyone kept those thoughts to themselves. No one would actually say it out
Finnegan didn’t care about what they were thinking. He was smiling, watching Liam reluctantly dealing with the media.
Chapter 240 Troubled Waters
A profound, intriguing smile formed on the corners of his lips.
Oh, Liam… You enjoy playing, and so do I, but I play a bit harder. Can you handle it, I wonder?
