Upon seeing that the doctor couldn’t quite answer him, Shane’s patience snapped, and he forcefully
shoved him aside.
The doctor stumbled back several steps away from the operating table, upon which the nurse quickly
steadied him.
Without anyone stopping him, Shane finally removed the towel from Natalie’s mouth.
The moment Natalie obtained freedom, she used her last vestige of strength to declare in a voice
brimming with hatred, “Shane, our child isn’t deformed! This is all a ploy. Sean conspired with all the
hospitals to abort our baby. Quick, lodge a police report!” As she spoke, her eyes were fixated on the
doctor and nurse.
After saying that, she could no longer hold out and passed out.
It was already astounding that she managed to remain conscious after having been anesthetized for
such a long time.
Knowing that her child was saved now that Shane had come in, she finally succumbed to the anesthesia.
Meanwhile, her words had the entire operating theater plunging into silence.
The doctor and nurse were entirely thrown off. Their knees went weak, and they both collapsed onto the
floor with devastation written all over their faces.
Stifling the urge to kill them both, Shane snagged the scalpel and cut off the bandages restraining
Natalie. Then, he carried her off the operating table.
At that exact moment, the doors of the operating theater swung open once again, admitting a group of
medical staff.
The elderly man in the lead demanded sternly, “Who’s making trouble here?”
He frowned as his gaze swept over the doctor and nurse, who were slumped on the floor. When he
finally shifted his gaze back to Shane, who was carrying Natalie, irritation was etched on his face. “Are
you the one kicking up a fuss here?”
Shane recognized the elderly man as Hans Brandt, an internationally renowned cardiologist cum director
of this hospital.
“You’re just right on time, Dr. Brandt. The doctors and nurses in the obstetrics and gynecology
department of your hospital accepted a bribe and deceived my wife that her child was deformed to
maliciously abort the baby. Please give me an explanation for this matter. Otherwise, I don’t mind razing
your hospital to the ground,” Sean declared in a chilly voice, his gaze boring right into the hospital
director.
There wasn’t much inflection in his voice, so he sounded rather calm. However, everyone present could
hear the hostility in his tone.
The doctor and nurse on the ground, especially, shuddered. Terrified, they hung their heads without
daring to say a single word.
Taken aback, Hans only gathered his wits about him after a long moment had passed. He gaped at
Shane. “Did you just say that they accepted a bribe and were going to…”
Without waiting for him to finish speaking, Shane strode past him out of the operating theatre with Natalie
in his arms.
Natalie was presently under anesthesia, so she had to be given medication to reverse it as soon as
possible.
Hans stared in the direction Shane and Natalie left before turning his gaze on the doctor and nurse on
the ground. His austere expression turned all the more terrifying. “Investigate the matter. I want to get to
the bottom of it!”
He would never tolerate such an evil deed as taking bribes and maliciously deceiving patients in his
territory.
Meanwhile, Natalie had already been given the medication to reverse the effect of anesthesia and was
taken back to the hospital room.
Hans came over and bowed to Shane apologetically. “I’m really sorry, sir. I didn’t know that the medical
staff under my command committed such a heinous act against medical ethics. Please rest assured that
I’ll definitely give you and your wife an explanation.”
“What kind of explanation?” Shane stared at him coldly, making it known in uncertain terms that he
wasn’t going to relent without a concrete answer.
Understanding his intent, Hans inwardly sighed before he answered, “I’ll report the incident this time to
the World Medical Association so that the unscrupulous doctor and nurse will be blacklisted in the
medical field besides sending them to prison. Is that satisfactory to you?”
“It’s not at all sufficient just for them to be blacklisted from the medical field and to go to prison. After all,
they can still practice medicine privately after serving their sentence.” Shane’s eyes narrowed
dangerously.
Hearing that, Hans’ expression stiffened. “So, what do you propose, sir?”
Damn it! This man is really difficult to please.
“I want it so that they won’t even be able to hold cutlery with their hands. I believe you can do that as a
doctor yourself, Dr. Brandt. Is that not so?” Shane drawled in a nonchalant yet chillingly cold voice as he
eyed him intently.
