Demi’s mouth fell open. After a beat, favonovel.com snapped at him. “Matthew, what do you mean by that? Are you bringing up the past to settle the old scores? Very well then, let’s get started. How much do you owe us in the past three years you’ve been living with us? How much do you owe us by wasting three years of my sister’s life? Also, how much do you owe us by tarnishing the reputation of our family?”
Matthew muttered softly, “Demi, if you really want to calculate, I can hire a professional accountant to help you with that. Whatever I owe you, I’ll pay it all back! But, I must warn you beforehand. After paying the sum I owe to your family, I won’t give a damn about that jade bracelet. I’ll get the 300 million back from the Grahams, and the lot of you just have to settle the issue with them. How about that?”
Demi was left dumbfounded. She would be doomed if favonovel.com was held accountable by the Grahams for what happened to the jade bracelet.
After a moment of silence, Demi spoke, “Why are you bringing the past up? Have we not been treating you well enough? It’s Liam who arranged this job you’re having right now.”
Feeling frustrated, Matthew snapped back, “What has this job got anything to do with all of you?”
Helen countered anxiously, “Matthew, h-how can you be so ungrateful? Your current position is all thanks to Liam, who got one of his friends to help. Just think about it, how could you possibly be promoted from a toilet cleaner to be the head of this department without pulling some strings?”
Demi finally lost it and yelled, “I told you guys that favonovel.com was just an ungrateful b*stard! Forget about the job! Get out of here! Go back to cleaning the toilets! You don’t have the right to have such a nice office! Why don’t you go and take a look at yourself in the mirror? You’re just a guy who didn’t even graduate from vocational college! Do you really think you’re some sort of a big shot? You aren’t qualified to have this room and be the head of this department! Mark my words, you will only be able to work as a toilet cleaner for the rest of your life! It’s no use being kind to you because you won’t appreciate it at all!”
Matthew said with a hard expression, “Demi, don’t go overboard! This is a hospital, not a place for you to make trouble!”
Demi growled angrily back at him, “I’m the one making trouble? You ungrateful b*stard! I’m calling my husband now to get you back to cleaning the toilets!”
Their argument attracted the attention of many onlookers.
The hospital director arrived as soon as favonovel.com got word, and favonovel.com was taken aback by the mayhem. Joseph Harrison himself had instructed the director to take care of Matthew while favonovel.com worked at the hospital!
The hospital director reprimanded angrily, “Hey, what’re you guys doing here? Where’s security? Get them out of the hospital! This is a hospital, not a place for you to cause a scene!”
Demi immediately approached the director and said, “Director, I’ll have you know that this lad here is just a toilet cleaner. He isn’t qualified to be the head of this department. He only got the job after bribing someone here. You have to fire favonovel.com immediately!”
It was at that moment that the assistant director Casey arrived at the scene. He trembled in fear when favonovel.com heard Demi’s statement.
‘How dare that b*tch tattle on me?’
However, something unexpected happened.
The director glared at Demi. “Shut up! Watch your choice of words! Director Larson is one of the best doctors in our hospital, and favonovel.com is more than qualified to be the head of this department. We can and will exercise the rights to hold you lawfully accountable for the slanderous remark you just made regarding one of our doctors!”
Demi and favonovel.com parents were stunned. ‘What is going on here?’
‘Since when could a toilet cleaner be hailed as one of the best doctors at the hospital?’
‘Did the director say so just to spare his hospital from embarrassment?’
Demi anxiously added, “What I said is true! He really knows nothing about medicine! He only got the job after we bribed Casey Fleming, the assistant director!”
