Every word from Nicole cut Robert and Nigel deeply. The despair on their faces was unmistakable
Nicole’s voice was firm and resolute. “After everything, the hospital didn’t trust its own doctor. They even refused to investigate.
“Because of that, I have completely lost faith in Silverwood Hospital. I will never retum.”

Even Aaron turned to look at her. As his gaze fell on her face, a faint smile played on his lips
Nicole took a deep breath. She addressed the reporters with one final statement
“As for this incident, I will get to the bottom of this and find the culprit who switched the medication. Mr. Boyd deserves justice, and I will prove my innocence. Boyd Corporation will be pursuing this to the very end as well.”

Everyone buzzed with guesses
Some offered their congratulations.
“Mr. Compton, would you consider giving us an interview when you get married?”
“Yes! Congratulations, Mr. Compton! We want to be part of such a big, happy event!”
The reporters could tell that Aaron was in a good mood today as he was willing to be interviewed. Usually, they couldn’t get anywhere near him. So now that the opportunity was here, no one wanted to miss their chance to hit their quotas.
