Saying it like that, even the director’s words seemed somewhat forced.
Pearl understood that the director wanted to protect her employees, so she didn’t make a big deal out
of it.
As they were about to leave, Leah walked in stemnly and asked, “What are you guys doing here?”
“Perfect timing, Leah. What’s wrong with the radiator in Miss Pearl’s ward?”
Leah explained without a hint of guilt, “The radiator in their room burned out this afternoon, so we had
to shut it off. I was just about to get someone to fix it.”
Hearing this, the director’s expression softened a bit. “See, it was all just a misunderstanding.’
Pearl couldn’t find any proof at the moment, so she just nodded and followed Richard back to the
ward.
Upon their return, they realized that the room’s temperature hadn’t improved, despite the hours that
had passed. Pearl, who
was sensitive to the cold, began to shiver. Richard quickly wrapped her in a blanket.
“Leah is really vengeful, and she’s targeting me of all people,” Pearl complained with irritation.
“I’ll talk to the director again.”
Richard was about to leave when Pearl grabbed his wrist. “It’s okay, it’s not that cold. Besides, going to
the director won’t solve anything.” novelbin
Pearl had a point.
“Give me a minute, I’ll make a call” With that, Richard stepped outside.
After more than half an hour, Richard returned with four men carrying a large rectangular object.
Standing by the door, Richard instructed, “Take this thing in and get it installed.”
Pearl was surprised. “What is this?”
“This is the new radiator that I just bought. Since the hospital’s radiator isn’t working, let’s just dismantle
it and replace it with a new one,” Richard explained firmly.
His words left Pearl momentarily speechless, surprised by his assertive action.
Shortly after, the director called Richard. “M-Mister Richard, I heard you’re planning to replace our
radiator with a new one?” The director found it unacceptable.
“It’s been hours, and the radiator still isn’t fixed. Your efficiency is pretty low. As for the employee in
charge of the radiator, you can just fire her,” Richard retorted, his tone laced with sarcasm, showing no
hesitation.
“But you’re changing the radiator without authorization now. Isn’t that unreasonable-”
“I was just about to allocate 15 million dollars to your hospital. From the look of it, it seems unnecessary
now,” Richard interrupted smoothly. He was skilled in the world of business negotiations and lanew how
to wield his influence effectively.
The director, who had been hesitant just moments ago, quickly adopted a more flattering tone. “As long
as you’re happy, feel free to make any changes you want. You’re the greatest gift to our hospital. So
when do you plan to…”
Richard, however, didn’t appreciate the director’s directness and interrupted her. “Whenever I feel like
it.”
In other words, the 15 million dollars would be wired immediately if he was in a good mood, but it could
easily be withheld if
The director, realizing she needed to tread carefully, gritted her teeth and offered a concession, “Alright,
I’ll have Leah apologize to you guys. If she still doesn’t listen, then I’ll fire her!”
Richard glanced at Pearl, as if he was seeking her opinion.
