Chapter 346: Chapter 346: Who is it (9)

Yes, sometimes being in a position of responsibility means having to endure humiliation and swallow one’s anger. However, it doesn’t mean that doctors and nurses don’t have tempers or dignity and can be trampled on by patients and their families.

No place would allow someone to arbitrarily act in a domineering manner.

"Carolline, I’m not saying you’re wrong, but I hope you can be more careful about your words and actions when working in the future. This time it’s a complaint, but what about next time? If it goes all the way to the Health Bureau, even if I want to help you, I will be powerless." Liu Changfu sighed, noticing that Carolline had the same straightforward temper as Henry Ruiz and was not easily persuaded.

That’s why he really didn’t want to talk to this father-daughter duo if it wasn’t necessary.

"Even if it goes to the Health Bureau, I’m not afraid. Thank you, Dean Liu, but I don’t think I have anything to explain. If they want to make a fuss about it, I’ll accompany them to the end." She might not want to, but if Daisy Willow decided to pursue it, she would help all the way.

"Carolline, you’re different now. Because you remarried Bryan, do you think our People’s Hospital is just a small shrine?" Dean Liu was upset that Carolline not only wasn’t remorseful, but also wanted to escalate the situation. He wanted to serve as dean until his retirement. If this became a major issue, it would be hard for him to explain to his leaders. Thus, he spoke with an unkind tone.

Carolline noticed Dean Liu’s sarcasm and her face fell. "Dean Liu, I used to respect you as a good leader, but I guess everyone can be blind sometimes. I assume I’m the blind one here. I didn’t do anything wrong, so I’m not afraid even if it goes to the higher leaders. But are you not worried that your own style issues will be exposed, Dean Liu?"

If someone could do such things without fear, why would she be afraid when she hadn’t done anything?

"You..." Liu Changfu was a smart man and knew what Carolline meant.

He wasn’t afraid of Carolline really causing trouble to the higher leaders. With all the officials protecting each other, even if it really blew up, it might not affect him.

However, having a tigress at home was exactly why he never openly acknowledged Jane Auclair’s identity. Even though he acknowledged his daughter, Joanna Auclair, he didn’t allow her to adopt her mother’s last name, fearing that the tigress at home would find out and ruin his peaceful life. If his wife were to cause a scene, there might indeed be trouble in his later years.

This was also why he couldn’t resist gentle and soft Jane Auclair the first time he saw her - perhaps the only "amorous encounter" of his life. Perhaps he was too weak in this lifetime, having no sons but two daughters.

"Alright, it was just a small matter and I simply wanted to understand the situation. Since it’s a misunderstanding, there’s no issue. Oh, and I’ll speak to George Edwards later, and let you resume your regular working hours. You won’t need to be responsible for those two patients anymore. As for your promised vacation, I’ll arrange the seven days for you next month." Dean Liu spoke coldly.

"Thank you, Dean Liu. I’ll leave now." Carolline wasn’t afraid of Liu Changfu giving her a hard time, so she left his office. After she left, Dean Liu immediately called George Edwards.

When Axel sent a Whatsapp message, Carolline was in a bad mood. But when facing Axel and his father, Bryan Hawkins, she was still all smiles, showing no negative emotions at all.

"How’s it going, honey? These past two days." After Axel’s long and chatty monologue, Bryan appeared on the screen, gazing at Carolline affectionately.

"It’s been good. It looks like Axel has gotten darker, and you should let him drink less soda, especially carbonated ones." Carolline noticed what seemed like a cola can in Axel’s hand and disagreed with it.

"Alright, I know. But not being able to drink any beverages while going out is a bit unreasonable." Bryan nodded. "Did you miss me, honey? I miss you a lot."

Although they’d only been apart for a day and two nights, Bryan couldn’t help but feel a growing sense of longing, wanting to immediately book a flight back home.

However, Axel was having a great time and didn’t want to go home at all.

"I miss you too. You’ve gotten darker as well - pay attention to sun protection." Going to a place like Maldives during summer vacation, how could one not get tanned? But Axel insisted on going there.

"Mom, didn’t you say before that it’s better for boys to be a bit darker?" Axel timely intervened, not wanting to video chat at all. He wanted to continue enjoying the vast embrace of the ocean, but his father missed his mother too much and had to video chat with her for a long time every day.

"Yes, it’s good to be a little darker, but not like a piece of coal." Carolline was speechless - everything had to have a limit.

"..." Axel didn’t say anything. "Dad, I’ll go down first. You come find me later."

"Carolline, let’s talk more tonight after getting back to the hotel." Bryan, watching Axel running towards the crowded area, was worried about not finding him later and had to end the video call.

"Alright, sure." Carolline nodded.

After the video call ended, she looked up at the blue sky and suddenly missed the father and son very much.

For some reason, she took out her phone and typed a message: ’If I stop being a nurse, do you want to support me?’

She hesitated for a long time before finally sending it. However, Bryan replied immediately: ’Honey, I would be overjoyed.’

Carolline could imagine the excitement on Bryan’s face right now. These rich men really wanted their wives to become housewives. She didn’t think she could adapt to a wealthy lifestyle like Sophia Lawson. She needed things to do, regardless of how much money she earned.

Soon, Bryan sent a second instant message: ’Honey, did someone upset you? Tell your husband, and I’ll help you seek justice.’

Carolline couldn’t help but smile.
