Austin froiched. Once again, he was tasked with fixing the problem.
Marilyn never handled anything dat could affect her reputation or have potential risks. She always had Austin or Vera take care of it
Austin knew Marilyn was extremely selfish, but he had no choice but to put up with it.
“Austin, what’s up with Robert! How could he say bad things about you like that, especially when he’s supposed to set an angrily

Austin rubbed his temples, feeling helpless. “Mom, can you please not complicate things for me anymore! Courtney was in South Weidan for five years, and a lot was out of her control. It’s not her fauh,”
“And you re sull defending her, saying it’s not her fault. She could’ve just died, but instead, she chose to live, Alina said angrily. “If she had died, I would still respect her as a woman with dignity. What’s the point of living if she tossed away her honor just to survive? Now she wants a share of the family estate, I spit on that idea“
Austin really couldn’t bear to hear more of this, so he took off his white coat and walked out.
In the ward, Robert was wearing traditional clothes and accompanied by Mark’s parents, with white cloth tied around their foreheads, protesting outside James‘ hospital room
Their demands weren’t being met, and there was no reasonable explanation for anything.
“James, you allow your daughter to bully my student. Let me tell you, Courtney isn’t alone. She has me Robert was so furious he was shaking. “As long as I’m alive, Courtney will have someone to support her. Don’t think you can bully her like this.
“Let your daughter sit in jail. It’s what the deserves. You raised a troublemaker, and you won’t meet a good end.”
Robert was truly angered by Janes and Vera.
Since he learned that Courtney was seriously injured and hospitalized by Vera’s people, he decided not to keep quiet anymore.
Even if they were like tiny ants unable to shake a large tree, with only their Ines barely holding on, they had to try to secure some benefits and a stalde future for their children and future generations.
Courtney had lost everything. She had lost her parents and her husband.
If he, as her teacher, didn’t stand up for her now, then she’d muly have nothing left.
“James, you must give Courtney an explanation. The Lewis family has gone too far. You seized her property, took her husband, and now you want her life! Do you have any morality or humanity left? Robert shouted, his finger trembling as he pointed at James on the hospital bed, yelling in

James wore a neck brace and security guards were stationed at the door. He looked coldly at Robert.
“We’re from the news agency. Mr. Lewis, how do you explain this?”
“Mr. Lewis, we’re from the Phoenix Network. Please address Roliert’s accusations directly. As a professor at the hospital, he used to outrank you. If it weren’t for the peacekeeping incident live years ago, things wouldn’t be like this,
“Mr. Lewis, what are your thoughts on the peacekeeping accident from five years ago Why have you never reported it, and why has there been no news about it outside?
Robert used his connections to contact media reporters.
This was a message to James, Robert wanted to put pressure on James. At the same time, he was also risking his life.
James was the kind of person who lacked humanity. Anyone who threatened his interests and reputation would get rid of it.
Robert knew he would become a thorn in James‘ side.
But someone had to stand up.
Young people always had their plans.
Robert didn’t hold it against them. They had families and work, they needed to get by.
Since that was the case, he himself could handle it.
In the hospital room, James face turned serious as he looked at his men. “Isn’t Robert’s condition worsening! Whether it’s sooner or later, it doesn’t make much of a difference. Make him quiet.”
James was determined to kill him.
