Chapter 653 I Came for Mr. Quint

The explosive voice shook the entire floor.

Many walked out of the offices in shock.

“Who said that? Come out now!” Eli cried angrily.

Eli carried a lot of authority as a senior hospital administrator.

He had always been aware of his position in the hierarchy and that insult did not sit well with him.

“I’m talking about you.”

A grizzled–haired yet ruddy old man emerged from the crowd.

The old man, flushed in the face, glared at Eli.

He was still furious..

The old man was Sam, who hurried to the hospital with Kaze.

“Who are you, old man? How dare you talk to me like that!”

Eli flipped out.

Dr. Ziegler, taken aback at first, blurted, “P–Professor Whiteman!”

The name stirred a commotion on the whole floor.

“Wow! That’s Professor Whiteman, the leading expert in orthopedics.”

“Professor Whiteman’s successful return with his squad from the battlefield was reported on the national news too.”

“Mr. Wood sure is arrogant to yell at Professor Whiteman. The hospital director, Rowan Lowe, was once Professor Whiteman’s student too.”

“Most importantly, don’t you think it’s funny a hospital administrator in orthopedics doesn’t recognize the leading expert in the same field?”

Many on scene were doctors and patients.

They knew who Sam was as he was rather well–known.

Despite pushing his seventies, Sam led his squad to a warzone with determination.

He put his life on the line to help the sick and injured.

Sam had saved the lives of countless military officers with outstanding

achievements.

He received the welcome of the highest honor during his return to the country not too long ago.

He was dubbed a national hero.

Many medical personnel flocked to him excitedly.

The orthopedists were filled with awe before the man of the hour, respecting his contributions to the medical field.

“Hello, Professor Whiteman.”

“What brings you to Lilyrose, Professor Whiteman?”

“Are you here for our medical forum? That’s great! I can’t wait to hear your speech.”

Everybody greeted Sam enthusiastically.

Down–to–earth, Sam responded with a smile, “We can talk about your questions later. I’m a little busy at the moment.”

Everybody stopped talking.

They turned to Eli.

Moments ago, Eli called Sam an old man.

Now, Eli was dumbfounded.

“I’m sorry, Professor Whiteman. I-”

He looked at Sam in a fluster.

Eli could barely string together two words.

He broke out in a cold sweat.

Sam scoffed and told his student in the back without turning his head. “Bryan, Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

call Rowan.”

Bryan was a middle–aged man and was also rather accomplished in his field.

He gave Rowan, the director of the orthopedics medical center, a call right away.

By then, Rowan had caught wind of the situation and was taking the elevator to the floor.

Eli was scared stiff.

Sam would not talk to him and summoned the director instead.

It was clear Sam was out to get Eli.

Eli knew he was done for.

He wailed, “I was wrong, Professor Whiteman. I didn’t mean to yell at you. Please forgive me.”

“I can’t believe you, Eli. How could you yell at Professor Whiteman?”

Rowan caught the last of Eli’s words when he walked into the corridor.

It was infuriating for Rowan to learn that Eli insulted his teacher.

Eli fell on his bottom in fear.

So much for keeping up with appearances.

Sam waved his arm. “That’s all right, Rowan. I called you down here not because he yelled at me.”

The national hero was not tempted by fame or money; he was not shallow.

Rowan was surprised. Then, a thought struck him.

“That reminds me, Sam. Aren’t you supposed to be in Doville? What brings you here? I believe we don’t have a medical forum going on,” he asked confusedly.

Sam pointed at Hector, who was wheelchair–bound, and said, “I came here to treat Mr. Quint.”

The crowd stared at Hector in shock.
