Chapter 281
In the hospital, Quintin was wheeled out of the examination room. His body had completely deteriorated. To treat his heart disease and perform a bone marrow transplant, they first needed to address his other ailments and restore his bodily functions. The hospital had administered medication, and now the effects had taken hold, requiring a check–up.
Jessie and her servants helped the doctors and nurses move him into a ward before quickly leaving. As she exited, Leona was waiting for her in the
corridor.
Leona asked, “Mom, are y
you worried about Shannon“”
Jessie paused and looked at her.
Previously, Leona had shown a bit of cunning, attempting to damage their relationship with Shannon. Jessie understood her sentiment and strategy.
without much thought.
However, in recent days, Leona seemed genuinely
ely concerned for Shannon, so Jessie nodded withe
All the hospital executives had been arrested, and Jessie needed to ensure Shannon’s situation.
“She wasn’t implicated or arrested. She’s doing fine in the hospital. She probably isn’t the technical director of this hospital.” Leona’s face showed relief and happiness for Shannon,
Jessie slowly frowned. So, Shannon’s title of technical director was just an empty title.
Jessic thought it made sense. Given Shannon’s level and skills, she couldn’t handle being the technical director of such a large hospital. No wonder she couldn’t help with Quintin’s hospitalization.
With this thought, the weight Shannon had gained in Jessie’s heart significantly lessened.
Leona said. “Mom, you haven’t had a good rest lately. Your gray hair has increased. How about you take a good rap? Dad still needs you, and I can check on Shannon?”
Jessie instinctively moved to touch her hair but restrained herself due to her strict demeanor. She knew she had been too exhausted recently, with more gray hair, wrinkles, and dull skin, desperately needing rest.
“Mrs. Moore” Paul followed her out. “Mr. Phoenix is Mr. Moore’s amending doctor. Mr. Moore can’t do without him. We must find a way to bring him back to the hospital”
Quintin had been treated for less than twenty–four hours, but the medication was already effective, and the hospital had provided a comprehensive treatment plan they were confident in. They decided to continue with the plan, so the attending doctor needed to be present.
Jessie’s expression grew serious, and she steeled herself. She told Leona, “No, you go rest.”
Shannon was significant to the Moore family, and she was wary of Leona’s motives and did not want her to provoke Shannon.
Leona’s eyes had a hint of coldness, “Okay, Mom.”
Jessie left the hospital with her secretary, heading out at night to pull some strings to have Lorrand released.
Kentside Garden, Ray was about to go rest. He paused upon seeing the pacing figure in the living room. “Mr. Andrews, you haven’t gone to bed?”
He remembered seeing Blake go to his bedroom at eleven. Ray thought he was getting old, his eyesight failing, and his memory faltering. He thought. “Is it time for me to retire!

“Oh, it’s will early Blake flipped his phone over
During the day, he had been following the news about Riverview Hospital and had set up keyword alerts. After falling asleep, the phone’s vibrations woke him.
Once he saw the news, he couldn’t sleep. He was excited and decided to take a walk in the living room.
Ray glanced at the phone in Blake’s hand. “Mr. Andrews, did you see the news? All the top executives of Riverview Hopital have been arrested” Including Lea
As a butler, Ray had developed a habit from a young age. He would only sleep after ensuring all tasks were completed after his master had gone to bed. Therefore, he always stayed up an hour later than Blake. He had seen the news.
Blake also saw the news, so he initiated the conversation. “Young people are just too impulsive. If she had listened to me, she wouldn’t have ended up like this. His tone was firm, reflecting his wishes and a hint of regret

If she had agreed to give up on Alfred, even if she had accepted Milton, Hlake wouldn’t have let her end up like this.
The Andrews family dominated the domestic and even the Aetheris market. Blake wasn’t worried about that. His only concern was Alfred’s wife, the future mistress of the Andrews family and the first lady of Iverton.
Ray glanced at Blake. Having served Blake for decades, spending more time with him than anyone else, he naturally understood what was on his

By morning, the trending news had died down. The shocking Riverview Hospital scandal was overshadowed by celebrity scandals, gradually disappearing from public view.
On the first day of her arrest, Lea was woken by loud knocks at the door. Her face scrunched up in annoyance, and she was filled with intense morning grumpiness.
She planned to sleep for several dozen hours and being woken up midway made her uncomfortable. Yawning sleepily, she pulled off her sleep mask. frowning. Grandpa How… how are you here?”
She had called Christian before entering the lab the night before last. Otherwise, if he had learned about such a big incident from the news, he wouldn’t have been able to take it
