When Joshua finally arrived at the hospital, the doctor was in the middle of cleaning and bandaging Fiona’s wound.

He could not stop himself from complaining to his assistant, who was watching from the side, “Why didn’t you tell me to come earlier, knowing how serious her wound was? You’re useless! “

The assistant bit down on her lip and answered in a slightly sheepish tone, “She looked perfectly fine, and she even said she was fine. She was just scalded by a cup of coffee, so I didn’t take much notice of her. I didn’t know that…“

She did not know how serious this patient’s burn was!

“What do you mean, it was an accident? It’s murder! “ the doctor scoffed. As he continued to treat Fiona’s wound, he coldly added, “Ms. Blake asked us to keep this a secret and not tell you that one of your employees had hurt her, but I believe that if this happened once, there’ll always be a next! “
