A Night's Mistake: The Besotted CEO's Obsession

Chapter 124

Chapter 124

Anthony’s normally enchanting face now bore a bloodthirsty terror as the violent streak within him grew. He was fully projecting the image of Cynthia onto Isabella, and thus he had no intention of showing mercy to someone who dared to slander Cynthia. Turning to see Hunk in his way, he thing him aside and moved to utrike again. Hunk’s back hit the corner of the wall, but seeing the woman on the ground in danger, he ignored the pain quickly got up, and once more intervened.

“Mr. Clara, calm down. Hunk said.

“Get out of my way.” Anthony ordered.

“Mr. Clara, the other two factions are waiting for you to make mistakes. If what happened today is exposed, they will take action,” Hunk added.

Anthony’s thick brows knitted together, a fierce scowl spreading across his face.

Then I just have to deal with them both, he retorted.

“Mr. Clara, don’t forget your mother is recuperating at the family estate. Mr. William won’t approve of you laying a hand on them,” Hunk cautioned.

Hearing this, Anthony finally calmed down. Over the years, while William had intended to hand over the reins of the Clara family business to him, William had also been wary, keeping Anthony’s mother at the family estate. This was a means to restrain Anthony, to prevent him from acting out rashly and doing something extreme.

Looking at the trembling woman on the ground, Anthony roared angrily, “Get out”

Hailey left with a painful body. This time, she didn’t even dare to go back to the consulting room. She took the elevator directly to the director’s

office.

Seeing her like this, Gerald asked in surprise, “Dr. Yancey, what happened?”

Hailey immediately put on a pitiful look.

“Mr. Zimmer, I was hit by a man in the consulting room just now,” she said.

“1 just asked if that man knew Dr. Larson, and that man beat me indiscriminately. Mr. Zimmer, please hold up justice for me,” she added.

Hailey conveniently ignored the remarks she had made earlier about Cynthia and Gerald. Now, she resembled nothing more than a victim seeking protection.

Frowning, Gerald thought for a moment and asked, “Do you know who that man i?”

“I heard the man by his side address him as Mr. Clara,” she said,

“Anthony Clara” Gerald blurted out immediately, his complexion naming grave. He stood up from his seat, his face etched with severity.

“Why does this madman haunt us all the time?” he said.

Then he was about to go outside.

“Mr. Zimmer, what about mer Hailey asked.

Hearing this, Gerald stopped. His eyes were full of inquiry.

“Did you say anything else?” he asked.

Hailey’s entire body trembled slightly, a sense of unease washing over her. Could it be that the old man has found out about something” she wondered.

She stammered, “I didn’t say anything.”

-youd!

better, or I can’t protect you,” said Gerald, and t then he left in a hurry.

Gerald came to Cynthia’s consulting room and looked around, but he didn’t see the man

“Cynthia, where is that man?”

Cynthia knew exactly whom Gerald was referring to. Glancing toward the door, she said, “He’s gone for a check–up”

“Did he make things difficult for you?” he asked.

“No, he’s just here for treatment.”

Just then, Anthony entered with his test results in hand. Seeing Gerald present, a flicker of an inexplicable smile crossed the corner of Anthony

mwwith

“Mr. Zimmer, you are also here,” he greeted.

Gerald protectively positioned Cynthia behind him, cyring Anthony with caution. Seeing this, the smile deepened at the edges of Anthony’s lips

“Mr. Zimmer, you don’t have to do that. Im a patient in your hospital today” Anthony then laid the test results in front of Cynthia. She took a look and her expression turned serious. His heart was indeed showing signs of failure, just as she had suspected. The condition was still in the early stages and not yet obvious, but if left unchecked, it would eventually result in the loss of heart function. Regardless of what the thought of the man before her, her current role was as a physician, and she was determined to fulfill her medical duties.

Looking at Anthony, Cynthia said seriously, “Mr. Clara, your heart is on the verge of failure.”

examination report and pointed out several places that caused heart failure.

Then Cynthia picked up

“There is plenty of blood flowing in these places. It’s risky to have an operation, but if we don’t do it and use the best medicine to control it, it will eventually lead to heart failure.”

Taking a casual glance at the test report, Anthony kept smiling.

s, as if he only cared about whether

“Oh, it’s so serious. Dr. Larson, can you take care of my treatment? Anthony looked at Cynthia with his deep eyes, as she would be responsible for his treatment or not, not caring about his health.

Cynthia didn’t understand what he was thinking. She said coldly. “Mr. Clara, don’t make fun of me. People like you must

ust have a private doctor. He must know your condition better than me.”

“That quack has been treating me for so long, but there’s been no improvement in my condition. So, I’m planning to fire him and have Dr. Larson take over my treatment. Anthony declared.

Anthony spoke without a change in expression, conveniently forgetting that it was he who had stubbornly refused surgery, delaying it time and again. Meanwhile, Ethan, who was at home enjoying his holiday, began to sneeze incessantly, assuming he might have caught a cold, oblivious to the fact that his medical skills were being completely denied. Anthony’s almost devilishly handsome face was filled with mirth as his intense gaze fixed on Cynthia.

“Dr. Larson, with your benevolent heart and your remarkable healing touch, you wouldn’t abandon me over our past differences, would Anthony said, his inquiry laced with a mix of hopefulness and challenge.

Cynthia was on the verge of declining, but his words made her swallow back the refusal.

“I’ve always appreciated doctors like you, Dr. Larson, who is reasonable, Anthony remarked with a nod of approval

you?”

Cynthia proceeded to prescribe some medication for him. Anthony instructed Hunk to fetch the medicine from the pharmacy, while he stayed behind in the consultation room, seemingly looking for conversation. Gerald appeared as though bracing for a confrontation. Hunk returned with the medication soon, and Gerald promptly ushered Anthony out,

“Mr. Clara, now that you have been diagnosed and got the medicine, please don’t delay the treatment of other patients in our hospital,” she said.

Knowing that there wouldn’t be anyone else this afternoon, Anthony thought for a while and agreed though.

Before leaving he turned to Gerald and said. “Mr. Zimmer, may I have a word with you in private, please?”

Eager to be rid of his imposing presence, Gerald followed him oul

“Mr. Zimmer, please ensure that you manage the unruly folks in your hospital” Anthony advised before departing

“I don’t want to see that woman I met here again, or you’re aware of the measures Til take.” Anthony warned with an edge to his voice.

Hearing this, Ceraki said uncertainly, “You mean Dr. Hailey Hailey?”

1 dont know her name, but if I hear anything bad about Cynthia again, don’t blame me for being rude,” Anthony threatened

Although Gerald was irritated by Anthony’s disrespectful rone, he gleaned some information from his words.

“May I know what she said?” Gerald inquired cautiously.

“You’re gonna have to play detective on that. A huge hospital like this has got to have cameras and voice recorders around, right? Just hoping you’ll play it straight and fair. Then Anthony left.
