Chapter 526

“A syringe?”

Gideon picked up the syringe and sniffed it before growling, “Amoxicillin. It’s amoxicillin!”

“Asshole! What do you have to say now?”

Boom!

Daniel’s mind went blank, as if he had just been struck by lightning.

A syringe? Where did that come from?

Daniel would swear on his life that the syringe wasn’t his.

Unless... Daniel’s sharp gaze turned to Jeremy.

Jeremy was grinning at Daniel. The former looked like his vile plan had succeeded.

Jeremy must’ve slipped that into my pocket!

Daniel had guessed the truth. Jeremy was indeed the one that had slipped the syringe into Daniel’s pocket when Daniel got Jeremy some breakfast.

Daniel became so angry that his blood pressure rose, and he spat blood. “You jerk! Y-you framed your own family. God will punish you for that.”

Jeremy yelled, “Freaking leave!”

“How can you still deny your sin at a time like this? Do you take the public as idiots?”

Everyone reacted more violently after being convinced that Daniel was the one that had killed his own father.

“I can’t believe it!”

“The son killed his own father for money. Dang, he’d just set a new record for the extent of mankind’s cruelty.”

“No, that asshole is too cruel to even be human. Hell, even calling him a monster would be an insult to all the monsters out there.”

“You reporters must share this news and expose his ugly sins to everyone!”

The reporters didn’t disappoint anyone either. They wrote their articles quickly and the news was spread like wildfire.

The news’ website, social medias, and even the television...

The name “Daniel Hinton” suddenly became known throughout the Rivermouth district, it had become a target for public criticism and the news was spread all over the entire country.

Gideon Allen was furious when he screamed, “Shut it down! Shut this hospital down this instant.”

“Daniel Hinton, your medical license has been revoked, and you will be held accountable at the court of law.”

“Additionally, the enterprises that had been supporting this hospital will lose their license to trade medical supplies. They will also be banned from selling medical supplies to the army.”

Everything had been decided, and Daniel closed his eyes in devastation.

Why? Why do good men die young while the criminals are free to wreak havoc?

God, you are so unfair!

Zeke and Lacey had just returned to the Linton Group at the time.

Susan rushed to them as soon as they got back.

“Mr. Williams, Ms. Hinton, something happened to our merger with Reagan Pharmaceutical, and I can’t solve the issue on my own. I need your help.”

“What’s wrong?” asked Zeke.

Susan replied, “Logan used to own fifty percent of Reagan Pharmaceutical, and he transferred his shares to us.”

“The remaining fifty percent was held by four other shareholders.”

“All four of them join forces to fight against us. They refuse to merge with Linton Group, and want to force us to sell our half of Reagan Pharmaceutical to them at a lowered price.”

“They even went as far as getting their employees to go on strike. The customers couldn’t get the stock, so they are demanding a refund...”

“Reagan Pharmaceutical has stopped production, and the situation now is chaotic. I-I can’t keep them calm.”

Zeke frowned and replied, “Let’s head to Reagan Pharmaceutical to see what is going on.”

Dawn ran over nervously at that moment and said, “Lacey, Zeke, something’s happened to dad.

Something really bad.”

Lacey got nervous immediately and replied, “Dawnie, slow down. What happened to my dad?”

Dawn handed her phone to Lacey and answered as she panted, “T-Take a look for yourself.”

Lacey quickly accepted the phone.

The screen was displaying a news article shared by a trusted local media outlet.

The article stated that Daniel Hinton had murdered his own father to inherit the wealth.

Lacey’s head suddenly went dizzy after reading that article, and her body swayed. She almost fell right onto the floor.

Zeke supported her immediately and said, “Calm down, Lacey, calm down.”

“Everything will be fine. I’ll help you.”

Lacey shrieked with a broken heart, “H-hurry. We have to hurry over to save dad.”

“Let’s go,” said Zeke as he hastily led Lacey to the car and stomped on the gas.
