Chapter 267
Watching Rowan’s car drive away, Aria felt a wave of confusion. Just as she was about to head back pack house, she suddenly received a call from Dr. Marcus Reed.
Aria hesitated for a few seconds, then answered, “Dean, do you need something?”
“Aria, the suspension on you has been lifted and you are allowed to return to the hospital. Turns out your whistleblowing on Dr. Thorne paid off. It has been confirmed that he’s been taking kickbacks for a decade, at least a million in total.”
Aria squinted, “So much?”
“I didn’t expect Dr. Thorne to be so aggressive, it was also beyond my expectations.”
Although he knew about Dr. Thorne’s bribery, the amount involved was over a million, so it can be imagined how much profit he made from the hospital. About the medical expenses of patients in private, he almost pocketed half of it.
“Aria, Dr. Thorne is not coming back this time, so you don’t have to worry anymore. And, I intend to have you take his place.”
Aria frowned, “But I had already applied for a job transfer.”
“Isn’t there still some time left? Why don’t you temporarily take his place.”
Aria agreed without hesitation.
The next day, Aria officially returned to the hospital.
Her figure had just passed the nurse station, and several nurses poked their heads out, their faces unable to hide their curiosity.
“My goodness! Wasn’t Dr. Ashworth suspended?”
“Yesterday I heard the supervisor say that the suspension of Dr. Ashworth was lifted by the higher–ups, and Dr. Ashworth was even promoted to director!”
“Suspended and then came back as the director, did she get involved with some big Alpha?”
Seraphina came out of the elevator and saw the nurses gathered around the nurse’s station, chatting and laughing. She walked over and asked, “What’s going on?”
The nurses saw her, their expressions slightly awkward, unsure of what to say for a moment. Seraphina noticed something, “What is happening?”
“Dr. Ashworth returned to the hospital and was promoted to director.”
As soon as the other party finished speaking, Seraphina’s expression froze, but she still forced a smile and said, “Is that so.”
She turned her head towards the direction of Aria’s office, her hand hanging by her side involuntarily clenched.
At this moment, inside the office.
Aria put the bag on the table, pulled back the curtains, and her charming face was reflected on the windows.
Suddenly, a chill flashed in her eyes.
