Lucas suddenly said in a solemn tone.
Ashlyn was rendered speechless.
Frowning, she looked at Lucas in displeasure with a face that was filled with annoyance. “Are you out
of your mind? Two operations per month are more than enough for me. I’m very busy. I have no time
for those miscellaneous chores in the hospital. So cut it out, Lucas, or I’ll resign from the hospital.”
Everyone was shocked that Dr. Berry had actually turned down a promotion and even glared at Mr.
Nolan with a look of impatience.
Everyone saw how Jerry had ended up after offending Lucas earlier.
At that moment, Jerry was still lying on the ground wailing in pain. After being beaten black and blue,
he looked like a total mess.
Meanwhile, Penelope was staring at Ashlyn with jealousy. How dare this ungrateful and rude woman
reject a promotion? Let’s see how Mr. Nolan’s going to deal with her!
Just when she, like everyone else, thought that Ashlyn would be punished severely by Lucas, who was
sitting at the head of the table, Penelope saw a look of adoration and resignation wash over the man’s
face as he heaved a sigh. “Alright. Do as you please, okay?”
The “okay” at the end of the question sounded as if he was discussing with her with a hint of doting
resignation.
Everyone was shocked to the core.
I-Is this the same man who had earlier decisively beaten up Jerry with a grim look on his face?
If the man earlier was like the king of hell who broke out of the battlefield, then the man right now was
like a sweet yet manly and domineering president.
The change in his attitude made him a completely different person.
Penelope looked at Ashlyn in devastation, her hands clenched into fists. “You’re going overboard,
Ashlyn. You really think you’re very capable, don’t you? You all probably don’t know that she accepted
Mr. Haddock’s bribes a few days ago. That’s why she agreed to treat Arthur.”
What happened in the hotel the other day was simply a humiliation for Penelope. She was certain that
Ashlyn had made a shady deal with Dixon, which was why she had blurted that out.
With a cold expression, Ashlyn looked at Penelope, whose face was now distorted. “Sister Berry, do
you want me to play the footage of how you seduced Mr. Haddock but ended up getting a slap in the
face?”
What?
Penelope seduced Mr. Haddock?
Everyone was struck dumb, including Jerry. He looked at Penelope in disbelief, who was glaring at
Ashlyn in anger, her eyes reddened. “Don’t make false accusations. Y-Y-You’re the one who wants to
seduce Mr. Haddock! You might have even slept with him!”
Ashlyn waved her phone at her. “I have your video here. Do you really want everyone to see it? I don’t
mind sharing it then.”
Widening her eyes, Penelope could not react for a while.
No, it can’t be! How does Ashlyn have the footage?
She had been lost in the pleasure of playing with the toy that day. Thus, she didn’t even know that
Dixon had filmed it and forwarded it to Ashlyn.
“Share it. You must share it! I must see how dirty she is!” Jerry yelled with a twisted face while lying on
the ground and wiping the blood off the corner of his mouth.
During the time Penelope was with him, she had made him buy her some branded bags, clothes,
shoes, and jewelry.
It seems like she’s been taking advantage of me all this while!
Jerry could not stomach the humiliation of being fooled by Penelope after being beaten by Lucas.
The ashen-faced Penelope kept shaking her head. Looking at the colleagues around her who were
shooting her a strange look, she yelled, “No, don’t. I didn’t do it. Ashlyn doesn’t have the footage, and I
didn’t seduce Mr. Haddock either.”
“Penelope, do you think I don’t know the fact that you tried to drug me with your parents?” Ashlyn
sneered. “It’s a pity that you drank the spiked drinks yourself.”
