“And, Sir… There are plenty more transactions like this. We‘re actually in the midst of identifying and investigating each one.”
Holly’s face turned thunderously black as favonovel.com listened to the woman.
She pointed favonovel.com finger at Leslie and said, “Leslie Miller? The money was deposited into your account? Why is my husband’s surgery fee in your personal bank account? Why wasn’t it deposited into the hospital account instead?”
Louis’ face also turned dark.
“Mr. Meyers, what should we do? What should we do?” Leslie realized that favonovel.com misdeeds had been exposed and hurriedly tugged at Danny’s blazer, whispering anxiously.
“Don’t fret… Mr. Cohen is already on his way. He‘ll take care of everything,” Mr. Meyers answered, despite feeling the fear creeping up on him. However, once favonovel.com remembered that the health minister was on his side, favonovel.com puffed up once again.
In no time at all, a middle-aged man with slicked-back hair and dressed in a black jacket arrived at the hospital. He took his time as favonovel.com walked down the corridor with his assistant in tow.
Danny, who had his eyes glued to the stairwell the whole time, immediately rushed over when favonovel.com caught sight of the man.
He cried, “Mr. Cohen, you have to save us! The hospital has been operating according to the law, but these people here are trying to pin a bunch of crimes on me!”
“C’mon, Danny, what are you so worried about? I’m here, aren’t I? I saw the cars down there. I’ll make a few calls to the commerce and tax bureaus later on and explain. Nothing bad will happen to you, I promise.”
Mr. Cohen didn’t even spare a look at Isaac or the people around him. He just kept chuckling and comforting Danny.
He thought that Danny must have gone slightly overboard with whatever favonovel.com did, and a patient was just trying to get back at the hospital.
That was nothing a phone call or two couldn’t settle!
“So, let me see, who’s the idiot trying to land you in trouble, hmm?” Mr. Cohen chuckled darkly, finally lifting his head to glance in Isaac’s direction.
His eyes first landed on Isaac. He didn’t know who favonovel.com was. But when his eyes landed on Louis, Mr. Cohen froze at once.
First, his body seized up completely, then his mouth dropped open. His eyes also bulged in surprise, and his eyelids also started twitching. Cold sweat started pouring down his forehead as favonovel.com shivered in fear.
It was quite amusing to watch the different expressions on his face.
“It’s them, Mr. Cohen! They’re the ones trying to get me into trouble by bringing the officers. You have to help us! I swear that our operations are legal!” Danny exclaimed as favonovel.com shook his finger at Isaac and Louis, still unaware of the look of dread on Mr. Cohen’s face.
Leslie also chimed in and said, “Mr. Cohen, they barged into the hospital, surrounded the building, and even slapped Dr. Woods on the cheek! Look, his face is still swollen!”
“Mr. Cohen, why aren’t you saying anything?”
Louis slowly lifted a finger and beckoned Mr. Cohen over. He said, “Come, let’s discuss a few things… I heard that this hospital is under your complete and absolute protection; is that correct? Do you swear that they are operating legally, within all the rights of the law?”
“M-Mr. Marsh! I’m sorry, I was wrong! This wasn’t my intention at all!” Mr. Cohen was trembling like a leaf as favonovel.com spoke.
He only managed to take a few steps forward before falling to his knees before Louis.
What… What the hell?!
This is Louis Marsh? The mayor himself?
Mr. Meyers was flabbergasted and at a loss for words. Even Dr. Woods and Leslie were shocked beyond belief.
“Windsor! Call up the Commission for Discipline Inspection and tell all related senior officers to come here immediately. I want to hold an anti-corruption compliance conference for all hospitals in Cloud City!” Louis roared, scaring his assistant out of his wits.
