Chapter 81 I Kendra said, âI assume youâre Mrs. Goodwin. It was me who saved your son. Donât worry. Mr. Goodwin is fine now.â
Kendraâs lack of shame surprised everyone, but they were afraid to speak up as she was the chief physician. Grace simply watched Kendra make a fool of herself in amusement.
Victor hurriedly arrived and dispersed the crowd. âGet back to your work. Donât gather here.â
Victor harshly questioned Kendra, âYou said you saved Mr. Goodwin?â
Under Victorâs stern gaze, Kendra said, âYes, I did. Iâm not sure why Grace feels the need to take credit, but Iâm cool with her claiming to be the Goodwin familyâs savior.â.
Grace didnât want to argue with her in the hospital, so she spoke coldly, âIt doesnât matter who did. Hospitals are for curing diseases and saving lives, not for taking credit for these actions.â
Kendra clenched her hands tightly under her sleeves, barely able to maintain a smile on her face.
Ruth saw through it and then said with a smile, âDr. Parrish is right. We donât mean anything else.â
Kendra looked unwilling; she wanted to speak up but didnât know what to say.
âIs this renowned cardiac disease specialist Dr. Grace Parrish? Itâs very difficult to get a consultation with you as a globally recognized surgical 10 Next Grace nodded at the speaker, not surprised to be recognized.
With great excitement, this person stepped forward and said, âDr. Parrish. would you please check on my fatherâs condition?
Please.â Out of obligation. Grace consented.
Just as they were leaving, someone looked up information about Grace on their phone and exclaimed. âI just checked it.
âDr. Parrish is truly remarkable. She deserves to be the chief physician at our hospital.â
Someone else said. âI suddenly remembered that Dr. Parrish used to work at our hospital. She was supposed to be elected chief physician back then, but Kendra ultimately assumed the position.â
âKeep your voice down. Given her abilities, I donât think Dr. Parrish would claim credit for something she didnât do.â
As Kendra heard these words, a hint of malice flashed in her eyes.
âDonât even think about provoking Dr. Parrish. Remember how you got your position as the chief physician!â Victor said, who had long been. unhappy with Kendraâs position as chief physician.
Kendra sneered inwardly, âI canât afford to mess with her? I could drive her away again just like I did before.â She asked, âWhatâs in it for you to defend Grace like that?â
Victor said coldly with sharp eyes, âThe Parrish family runs this hospital. Why would you mess with the boss?â
Almost everyone was stunned by Victorâs words.
They used to work with Grace for long, but they didnât know she was a member of the Parrish family. Someone exclaimed, âOh my goodness! Iâve been on the wrong side. Will I get fired?â
âMe too. It turns out Kendra has nothing!â
Kendraâs chest heaved violently in disbelief, but this was a fact she had to face.
Victor left after saying that.
Antonio and Omar came to the hospital again today and saw the whole incident. Omar began to have doubts for the first time as he looked at Antonio and said, âSomething about Kendra seems off, Dad. I feel uneasy.â
Antonio did not respond, seemingly lost in thought with unreadable eyes.
When Kendra saw them, she immediately dismissed her previous thoughts. She was not afraid of the Parrish family. They might have. intimidated her in the past, but now the Parrish family was nothing compared to the Kaufman family.
Kendra immediately put on a smile and approached them happily. âAntonio, Omar, what are you doing here? Did you come to see me?â
Antonio did not answer, his gaze fixed on Grace.
With a forced smile, Kendra said aggrievedly, âAntonio, you have no idea how Grace has humiliated me just now. Does she still hold a grudge against me?â
Omar couldnât bear to see her sad, so he comforted her, âNo, Kendra, itâs not like that. Dad and I came to look for Mom.â
Kendraâs face became gloomier. She clenched her fists until her nails dug into her palms to control herself.
âGo ahead if youâre here to look for Grace. Donât mind me.â
If it was before, Antonio would coax her, but this time Antonio just responded softly and left with Omar.
Chapter 1 Kendraâs fingertips trembled, and her eyes were full of disbelief. After at while, she turned and left as if she had made up her mind. âGrace, I will make you regret coming back.â
Grace had just stepped into the office when Antonio and Ãmar followed her in.
âMom, I have something to tell you,â Omar spoke hesitantly.
Grace didnât look at him but glared at Antonio. âWhat exactly do you want? Why do you keep pestering me?â
Antonioâs eyes darkened, filled with restraint.
âI donât mind who you were with overseas or that you have another child. But from today on, you can only be with me.â
With a bang, Grace slapped him hard on the face. âWhat do you think I am to you?
nt to say much in front of the kid, but youâve been pushing drug you back then. It was a marriage between two families. I did. ning wrong to you in those six years! But you kept cheating on me!
âAntonio, Iâve long given up on you and Omar. Weâve finished long ago!â
Antonioâs eyes seemed to be blazing with rage as he clutched her wrist. âSo you heartlessly left Omar behind for six years? Do you know how many people made fun of him for not having a mother? Have you ever carried out your duties as his mother?â
