Chapter 541 Drifting Away

The man strode aggressively towards Nancy. As soon as he reached her, he stretched his hand out and forcefully grabbed her hair. "Nancy! What the hell is this?"

He showed her the phone in his hand. On it, there was a video recording of Nancy pouring chili powder and all kinds of condiments into Mr. Bai's drink.

Nancy raised her head, noticing a camera that was mounted in an obscure corner of the room.

With a mocking smile, Nancy said, "You even installed surveillance cameras in here..."

Then, the man turned off the video and tugged at her hair. "Of course, we did. We are quite lenient with the others, but not with you. You're too cunning. Therefore, it makes it really hard for us to trust you. Tell me, how should I punish you?" As he said this, the man grinned wickedly. He raised Nancy's chin with the hand that was also holding the phone.

Nancy suddenly stretched out her hand and tried to grab the phone. The man was a bit caught off guard when she did this.

All she needed was to take hold of any phone and call Charles. If she succeeded, then maybe...

However, it was much too difficult to achieve this. The man was able to pull the phone out of her reach. Soon after, he kicked Nancy to the ground. "How dare you grab my phone?! Do you really want to die?!"

With a loud bang, Nancy hit her head hard on the tea table. She staggered as she almost blacked out

t do anything about.

Jay's heart ached for Charles. He wanted to comfort his best friend, but he didn't know what to say.

The room fell silent for a while. Neither of them spoke.

All of a sudden, they heard someone talking loudly. "The patient who just transferred is in a very critical condition. Where is Director Nancy?"

"Director Nancy was asked to attend to the patient's consultation," replied another nurse.

But then another one chimed in, "What on earth are you talking about? Director Nancy has been missing for a few days now, remember? How can she attend to a consultation?"

"Oh, that's right! I'm sorry, I forgot. What should I do? The patient's bone marrow became infected after her leg was fractured. The small hospitals didn't want to accept the patient, so they transferred the patient here. Aside from Director Nancy, no one else can treat him!" the first nurse narrated anxiously.

"But what do we do? Director Nancy is not here. I guess our hospital won't be able to attend to this patient. The skeletal inflammation is much too serious. Maybe he'll need an amputation," the second nurse stated gravely.

"How could Director Nancy disappear without a trace? It's unbelievable!" the third one asked.

"Yeah, you're right. No one even knows whether she's dead or alive," said the other one.

The three of them continued talking as they walked away.
