At the hospital’s entrance, some nurses were helping the Centers for Disease Control maintain order. Upon witnessing Jonathan’s arrival to take charge of the situation, they recorded the entire thing and sent it to the hospital’s group chat.
Madilyn could barely hide her surprise after watching the video. Her heart began to beat rapidly and wildly as if it was going to burst out of her chest when she heard Jonathan saying that he was her representative.
Lucian must’ve told Jonathan about the hospital’s situation. However, it was impossible that Lucian taught him to say that! Did he say that spontaneously? The pressure that had been weighing on Madilyn’s heart faded into thin air, leaving her feeling relieved and deeply moved by his gesture.
Lucian soon received a call from Jonathan, informing him that the situation had been brought under control. When Jonathan arrived, the reporters immediately recognized him and instead of publishing unreliable stories, they focused on the hospital’s emergency handling measures.
Jonathan stayed at the hospital entrance, patiently fielding any questions that the family members had At the same time, Coralie was keeping an eye on the situation with a set of binoculars. She could make out every detail of Jonathan’s expression.
I can’t believe Jonathan showed up to defend Madilyn! Envy smoldered within her, its flames licking at her heart. She ground her teeth together as her expression contorted into a malicious grimace.
“Three hours? My men told me that Jonathan claimed they could solve the problem within three hours. That’s impossible! Even if they discovered the existence of the pathogenic bacteria, bought the vaccine from Moranta, and had it shipped via plane, it would take more than three hours for the vaccine to arrive!” Christina’s expression was as dark as thunder.
However, she soon figured Jonathan lied on purpose to placate the family members. There is no way they can resolve our scheme in less than three hours. Not even Lucian can do that! She comforted herself before informing Coralie that she had to go back to Alphonso’s side. Coralie’s focus was on Jonathan, so she nodded and replied, “You just go”
Christina gave Coralie a thoughtful look when discovered that the latter was making the same foolish mistake she had once made-devoting her entire life and energy to a man.
Once I depart, I will have no further involvement in the plan. As long as I return to Mr. Goldstein’s side, even if I remain in Horington, no one can harm me, not even Lucian! Mr. Goldstein is not only the proprietor of Starlight Group but also has the backing of Hawen.
Indeed, Coralie’s mood was affected by Jonathan. The scene that she dreaded the most was witnessing Jonathan come to Madilyn’s aid to help her solve the crisis. Something told her that Jonathan had changed.
Previously, Jonathan had an adorable innocence about him as he was pretty straightforward. Now, his deep eyes were alight with wisdom beyond his years, tinged with a sense of reserved maturity that added to his overall allure.
What did Jonathan encounter in a short amount of time that made him change completely? Coralie had no idea what had transpired, yet her affection for Jonathan only seemed to deepen, along with her envy of Madilyn.
A few minutes later, Christina exited the elevator on the first floor to find that the hospital across the road was back to normal. At the hospital’s entrance, the nurses gently guided a handful of patients outside to explain the current situation to their loved ones.
“We’re doing well here. Dr. Xander often visits us. It’s nothing serious. Did you fall for someone’s lie?” A patient was reassuring his family.
“Really? We’re so relieved to hear that. We had heard about the bacterial infection going on and it had us all worried. Everyone was concerned, so we decided to transfer you to another hospital as a precaution. Thankfully it was a false alarm. We’ll go visit you later when the hospital is open for visitors!” His family was delighted to learn that he was doing fine.
Following that, a few patients came out to meet their families. Gradually, the crowd dispersed.
