Chapter 140

Chapter 140:
Belinda glanced at him, a flicker of suspicion in her eyes.
Then, with a small, teasing smile, she responded, “Oh? Are you concerned about me?”
Lucas let out a sharp, mocking snort, his eyes narrowing with mockery. “If you get fired, it won’t just be your reputation on the line—it’ll be the Clark family’s, too.” His voice took on a chilling edge. “If you’re not really qualified and only got your job because of the deputy director’s connections, I suggest you resign now. Don’t drag the Clark family’s name through the mud.” His words were as cold as ice, completely unrelenting.
Belinda exhaled deeply and then let out a soft, almost amused laugh. “You really don’t need to concern yourself with my career, Mr. Clark.”
With that, she placed her honey water down and stood up, turning to leave. Lucas’ gaze followed her, a flicker of curiosity in his eyes. Her reaction wasn’t that of someone who was worried about the rumors at the hospital. She seemed confident—almost too confident—in handling whatever was coming her way. Lucas’ frown eased just slightly as the thought sank in.
The next day, in the director’s office at the Grand Plains General Hospital.
“Liam, you wanted to see me?” Caiden asked, walking into the room with his usual calm.
Liam Glyn, the director of the hospital, handed Caiden a letter. “Take a look at this.”
Caiden opened the letter, his lips curling into a cold smile as he read it. It was an anonymous complaint letter, accusing both him and Belinda. The person who wrote the letter claimed that Caiden had used his position to get Belinda, who was unqualified to have a job here, into the hospital, demanding an explanation and accountability.

Liam studied Caiden intently. “What do you have to say about this?”
Caiden replied, “Liam, I did consult with you before bringing Belinda here, and I was clear about her unique situation.”
Only Caiden and his assistant knew Belinda’s true identity as Star within the hospital.
Liam’s brow furrowed. “You did mention it, but I never anticipated things would escalate like this. Now, rumors are running rampant inside the hospital, and everyone’s talking about this. We can’t just let this slide without some explanation. You need to figure out how to handle this.”
Caiden nodded, his expression calm. “I understand. Leave it to me.”
“Good. Just make sure you handle it properly,” Liam said.
“Of course.” Caiden turned to leave.
After exiting Liam’s office, Caiden made his way directly to the Cardiac Surgery Department.
When Caiden arrived, the other doctors in the office exchanged confused glances.
“Mr. Rodgers, is there something we can help you with?” one of the doctors asked, his tone tinged with confusion.
Caiden’s voice was firm as he gave his instructions. “Call in all the doctors on duty today, along with the department head. We’re having a meeting.”
“Yes, Mr. Rodgers,” the doctor replied.
Once everyone had finished their tasks, they gathered in the office. As Caiden took his seat at the head of the table, Belinda raised an eyebrow slightly. It was clear her enemy had made a move.
“Now that everyone’s here, I’ll begin,” Caiden said, his voice steady. “I’m sure you have all heard the rumors circulating around the hospital lately. I’m here to ask… Do any of you have an issue with me?”
