Chapter 1768 You Deserve It Too
“Darius, you stay here to take care of Jeremy. Damien and Draven will go with me. If Uncle Davin doesn’t get the antidote, we’ll go up the mountain.”
“Yes, Mr. Juan.”
On the other hand, it took Nicole and Evan a while to find a small hospital in the town.
After they explained their intentions, the hospital director scrutinized them and refused their request to use the testing equipment.
“I’m sorry. Outsiders aren’t allowed to use the equipment in our hospital,” stated the director coldly.
Evan’s expression darkened upon hearing that.
Immediately, Nicole walked up to the director and explained gently, “I know that outsiders aren’t supposed to use the equipment in the hospital, but we need it urgently to save people. We’ll only borrow it for an hour. Can you make an exception for us?”
“No!” While saying that, the director glared at Nicole. There was no room for negotiation in his tone.
“You won’t lend us? Fine. I’ll buy it!” declared Evan domineeringly.
Turning his head, the director scrutinized Evan from head to toe. The latter did look like a wealthy man because of his custom-made suit and aloof demeanor.
However, the director still rejected him. “I’m not selling it!”
In an instant, Evan’s expression turned grim.
It was the first time he had met such a bold person who dared to reject him.
Other than Nicole, no one dared to be impertinent with him.
“We’ll only use it for an hour. How about you rent it to us for an hour? We’ll pay for it.” Nicole only wanted to use the testing equipment as soon as possible.
Just as the director was about to chase Nicole out of the hospital, he saw Evan clenching his fist tightly, looking like he was going to beat him.
“Y-You!”
“What about me?”
Having said that, Evan grabbed the director by the throat.
“Let me tell you something that happened not too long ago. A month ago, someone rejected me. Guess what happened to him after that?” The director remained silent, but his heart was racing. At that moment, Evan was grabbing his throat, and his life was in the man’s hands.
“Two days later, the tendons of his limbs were severed, and he was crippled for life. His wife met a man who was a hundred times better than him and abandoned him. In the end, he could only face his death alone. Do you think you need that kind of life? If you talk to me like this again, you deserve it too!”
The director’s face turned as white as a sheet, but he still did not quite believe what Evan had said, thinking that the latter was just threatening him.
Shortly afterward, Evan swiped his phone to find the photo of that man’s tragic state and showed it to the director.
The man in the photo was lying on the ground miserably, reaching out to grab a piece of bread not far away. He looked worse than a beggar.
Instantaneously, a chill ran down the director’s spine. Who is he? How is he able to decide a person’s fate?
“Will you lend it to us now?” Evan questioned.
Blood drained from the director’s face, but he was still hesitant, thinking that Evan would not dare to do that to him.
After all, he was the director of the hospital.
Seeing that, Nicole stepped forward. “I’ll tell you a story too.”
The director shot her a strange look.
This man is so ruthless. I bet this woman isn’t a good person as well. Has she done something dreadful too? I’m so unlucky today! First, two patients with strange illnesses came to the hospital and asked us to save them. And now, these two troublesome people showed up. I shouldn’t have come to the hospital today.
However, he did not expect that the story Nicole told him next wasn’t tragic but about saving people.
After listening to the story, he heaved a long sigh.
“Fine. You can use the testing equipment as you like. I also hope to save a few more lives.”
