Chapter 358
Surprised, Irene asked, “What are you doing here?”
“I was looking for you,” Ricky replied. “But I couldn’t reach you on your phone.”
Irene whipped out her phone, and pressed a button to find that it was out of juice and had turned itself off.
Nonetheless, she said. “That would have to wait I’m busy at the moment.”
However, Ricky was clearly antsy and did not even notice the confrontation right in front of him. “It’s Lulu.
She’s-”
Meanwhile, Harvey and Chad were already at each other’s noses and a fight looked inevitable.
Irene had to ignore Ricky just then and went up to stop Harvey, saying, “He’s not worth it, and we’re in a hospital
Chad, however, became buoyed since he thought that was a sign of Irene cowing.
I’m telling you, Irene Spencer, I’ll have you kicked out of this hospital today,” he gloated, pointing a finger at her face. “You can call me Dahc if I can’t do it.”
“What are you talking about? Ricky rushed up right then pointed a finger at Chad’s face in retaliation. “Do you even know who you’re talking to?”
Chad was left frowning “And who the hell are you?”
“Irene’s my sister Who do you think I am? If you want a fight, you’ve got it,” Ricky snapped, braced with youthful bravado and almost eager to get started.
Beside him, Harvey snorted. “So? Are we doing this?”
Chad knew right then that he would definitely lose since he was up against two grown men, and gave it immediately
“You have numbers on your side, but that doesn’t mean this is over,” he said, and turned back to the hospital chief “You have one day. Fire Irene Spencer, or I’ll shut down this hospital!”
With that, he squeezed his way between Ricky and Harvey and headed out of the door.
Ricky was dissatisfied and about to go after him, but Irene quickly stopped him, quietly telling him, “This is a hospital Don’t get out of line.”
Indeed, it was a place of salvation and healing, not fisticuffs.
At the same time, the hospital chief was clasping his hands behind his back and sighing.
This is going to be troublesome–it was not the usual patient drama he was so used to.
Irene caught his wrist. “Calm down. It’s just a hunch, and it’s also why I asked you to look into that woman named Lindsay. She’s actually Whitney Cox, and she has a grudge against me and Isaac. She probably had help from Chad in getting your mom out of prison, and used her to threaten you before pitting you against me and Isaac. However, it’s just a theory-I have no evidence at all.”
