Magic Doctor CEO Lady's Humble Husband (Fade Chen)
Chapter 514

At the mention of this, Mrs. Zhou's eyes reddened and she could not help but weep in sorrow.

Fade remained unmoved and shouted coldly, "What did you two talk about?"

Mrs. Zhou revealed slowly, "We, we talked about how the person wanted to use my son against the hospital. He wanted to ruin the hospital's reputation and his target was none other than Dr. Tao." Daphne was startled and did not expect this to be related to herself.

Mrs. Zhou continued, "He said that his plan was to make Zeke's condition worsen. As such, Dr. Tao would have to take responsibility, and the hospital would need to pay a large sum of compensation at the same time."

"When I heard that Zeke's condition would worsen, I was very worried and immediately refused him. I wanted to leave, but the man grabbed me and said that my son's deteriorating condition would only be superficial, and Zeke would be fine."

"I didn't believe him. However, he showed his

own medical license and immediately gave me a sum of money. He even performed an experiment and showed it to me. So, I believed him and promised to carry out the plan."

Hearing this, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief. Even Zeke, who was lying in the hospital bed, looked at his mother in shock and betrayal. "Mom, how could you -"

Mrs. Zhou tried to explain herself, "Zeke, I was blinded for a moment. You know too, your father has not been given a raise in so many years. I don't have a job, and our family's financial status is nothing close to the prosperity of what's being displayed. So, I, I -"

Halfway through her words, she could not continue anymore and burst into tears.

Seeing this, Fade helped her sum up her sentence, "So, you agreed to the man's request and cooperated with him to poison Zeke. After the incident, you immediately brought people to guilt-trip Dr. Tao to fulfill his request and put the blame on her and the hospital. This was the reason why you were never worried about your son's condition from the beginning, right?"

Mrs. Zhou continued to sob. Finally, she nodded and said, "Yes, you're right. Now, can you save my son?"

"Not yet!" Fade shook his head and asked, "There is one last question. Who was the person who poisoned him?"

Mrs. Zhou paused for a moment, hesitating before she revealed, "He showed me his certificate, saying that he used to be a doctor in the City Medical Center. His name was Fabian Lin." Upon hearing her words, everyone in the hospital was taken aback.

Daphne did not expect that Fabian still harbored a grudge against her after he was fired due to Chief Zheng's matter last time. Not to mention, he even came up with such an elaborate plan to frame her and take revenge.

The principal and other executive leaders were also shocked. The former Principal Lin was dismissed by Chief Zheng because of his special relationship with Fabian. However, now that Fabian was still trying to cause trouble at the hospital, they wouldn't sit still and allow him to do so.

Silence hung in the ward for some time, disrupted only by Zeke's coughing as he spat out another mouthful of blood.

Mrs. Zhou was horrified when she saw this. She quickly said, "Hurry up and save my son. Please, hurry up!"

Fade did not say anything more. He said a few words to Daphne, who then walked to the side of the bed, grabbed Zeke's wrist and began to treat him.

Quickly, Fade managed to stabilize his condition while Daphne brought the corresponding medicines over. After injecting it into Zeke, his condition obviously improved. His complexion looked better, and all his vital signs gradually returned to normal as he fell asleep.

Seeing this, Mrs. Zhou and the others let out a sigh of relief.

At this time, they looked at Fade and Daphne again. Their eyes flickered with guilt and they did not know what to say. After all, Mrs. Zhou was the one who decided to bet her son's life for riches without properly considering the risks. She was the one who almost caused a tragedy to happen.

Seeing that they were restless, Daphne was ready to say a few comforting words. After all, the patient's condition was what mattered the most.

However, just as Daphne took a step towards them, a heavy clatter of footsteps were heard along with a loud accusation, "What have you done to my son? Your hospital must be responsible for this!" Upon hearing those words, everyone turned to see a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties walk in with a serious face.

As soon as the man entered the ward, he looked around and his gaze soon landed on Daphne. He bellowed, "You must be Dr. Tao. I'm Zeke's father. I heard that Zeke's condition has suddenly deteriorated, how did you even treat him? You'd better be responsible for this!"

Daphne was dumbfounded for a moment, then she stepped forward to explain, "Mr. Zhou, it's not like this, I -"

"Still looking for an excuse, eh!" Mr. Zhou swung his hand to slap her.

Daphne was so frightened that she squealed, she didn't have the time to dodge his blow.

Seeing how Mr. Zhou was about to slap her, Fade snorted and grabbed him with his right hand. He immediately twisted his arm accurately, stopping his movement effectively.

With a loud crack, Mr. Zhou's right arm was twisted into an unusual and ugly angle and it dangled by his side uselessly. His face contorted in pain as he cried out, "Ouch! It hurts, it hurts. Let go of me!" Fade sneered and shoved Mr. Zhou away roughly, only then freeing him from his grasp.

"Do you even know who I am? How dare you do this to me - "Mr. Zhou was furious. He pointed at Fade and was about to scold him.

But at this time, Mrs. Zhou hurried over, grabbed Mr. Zhou's arm and whispered something into his ear.

Hearing this, Mr. Zhou's expression could not help but change. He hurriedly looked at his son on the hospital bed. Seeing as his son was fine, he heaved in relief and his face relaxed. At that thought, his eyes gleamed as though he had a plot in mind.

Everyone knew what they were talking about even if they did not hear the contents. It was nothing more than Mrs. Zhou telling him about how their plan to blackmail and ruin the hospital's reputation was ruined.

At the thought of the couple risking their son's life for the sake of money and power, everyone looked at them in disgust and contempt.

Fade and Daphne did not want to spend anymore time around people like them. They snorted and turned around to leave.

But just as they were leaving, Mr. Zhou suddenly said, "Stop right there, who allowed you both to leave?"

Fade frowned. He turned around to look at Mr. Zhou with an eyebrow raised.

Daphne frowned slightly and asked, "Mr. Zhou, do you still have a problem?"

"A problem?" Mr. Zhou snorted and claimed, "My son was admitted to your hospital, but he was poisoned and almost lost his life. What do you think the problem is here?"

"Mr. Zhou, you -" Daphne gawked in disbelief. Who could expect that he would bring this matter up again!

Mrs. Zhou quickly pulled Mr. Zhou's arm to remind him in a low voice, "They all know that we've been exposed. Right now, Zeke's health is of utmost importance."

However, Mr. Zhou did not take it seriously. Instead, he retorted sharply, "So what if they know? Do they have any evidence? Besides, Zeke was poisoned in their hospital, so they must bear the responsibilities of inadequate supervision. No matter what they do, they can't escape this claim anyways."
