The manager took Mitchel's silence for a yes. He immediately turned to Charli and ordered, “Charli, don't go around and talk nonsense about this. As I've said, this is just a misunderstanding. You are a young lady. If you spread this, you will only harm your reputation."

Naturally, Charli wouldn't say anything to oppose. After all, Mitchel didn't touch her at all, and she got compensation over nothing while keeping her job. She didn't push further, knowing offending the wealthy like Mitchel likely made her life miserable. She knew when to stop when she was at an advantage. "I understand. Don't worry. I don't run my mouth. And this gentleman is still sick. He probably mistook me for someone else."

Oblivious to the truth, the manager appreciated Charli's cooperative manner and said with a smile, "Now you're talking. It's just a small matter, so let's let it be. It's resolved then."

The nurse nodded obediently. "Okay."

"Wow, you two had struck an agreement this fast!" Luis suddenly interjected. He leaned against the white wall and crossed his arms over his chest. "But I'm not quite satisfied here."

The manager knew that Luis and the hospital director were good friends. He immediately smiled flattering and said, “Sir, feel free to share your ideas. Of course, we can discuss further."

The manager pointed at Charli. "She has been working in this hospital for some days. She works well, and she's obedient. We can discuss things. Right, Charli?"

Upon hearing this, Charli lowered her head, looking aggrieved and helpless. She had played everything just right. "I know the rules of the hospital. The VIP patients are like gods. As I've said, this gentleman has mistaken me for someone else. Let's leave it as that."

This time, Charli wanted to leave a good impression on Luis, so she didn't insist on demanding a huge sum of compensation. She would have demanded a hefty price if otherwise.

But when Luis heard her words, he scoffed. "You sure know how to talk. But do you really think he's not picky?"

Charli was confused at first. She had not heard Luis' words clearly, so she naturally didn't understand what he meant.

After being silent the whole time, Mitchel finally spoke up. “Are you this bored?"

His reproach was directed at Luis. Although his voice was low, one could clearly tell he was angry.

Luis’ smile widened. “Alright, alright. I'll get serious now."

Luis stood upright, took out his phone, and made a call.

The person on the other end of the line immediately answered. "Luis, what's the matter?"

Luis put his phone on speakerphone. The manager and Charli immediately recognized the hospital director's voice and their expressions changed.

"Did the nurses in your hospital graduate from a nursing school or drama school? They are pretty good at making stories. Very impressive!"

Luis said mockingly.

The director was attending a conference, and it was quite noisy on that end, so he asked, “What do you mean, Luis? I'm busy right now. Say what you need to say."

“The manager of the VIP ward and the nurse on-duty have colluded to frame one of your patients. How should you handle this?"

The director said decisively, "Dismiss them. Then, issue a warning statement to the entire hospital. Hold them responsible for whatever responsibilities they should bear."

"Okay, I understand. I'll pass on your order to the ones in charge,"

Luis said, nodding.

“Of course, you can handle it yourself. I'm busy here. Let's talk when I get back."

The manager's and Charli's faces turned pale. Luis had actually asked the director to fire them, saying they had colluded to frame Mitchel.

Having believed in Charli's account naively, the manager protested, "Mr. Stevens, I've been mediating the whole time to help you. I'm speaking in your favor, helping cover up the facts. How have I become an accomplice?"

“What? You've been fooling me the whole time? It turns out you're all the same kind of people." Charli pointed at the manager.

Then, she turned to Luis and snapped, “Humph! Don't think I'll be afraid of you because you are wealthy and powerful while I don't have many connections. If pushed, I'll make a fuss. Let's see if people will sympathize an insignificant person like me or to the big shots like you."

After saying this, Charli straightened her body and took out her phone. She decisively took photos of the mess and recorded a video, including her disheveled appearance. Then, she threatened, “If you dare dismiss me unlawfully, I'll definitely expose this matter. I have nothing to lose, anyway."
