"You should hurry up and beg Director Wilson before he gets to Ms. DiLaurentis," Vivian said quickly to Elijah, but he appeared less concerned and even waved dismissively."Don't bother about that matter. Now that I'm here, I won't be leaving.""Hmph! Stop pretending to be something. Even we don’t dare to offend Director Wilson, but a newbie like you is bold," one of the employees said coldly before returning to her desk.Another added, "Vivian, you should keep your distance so Director Wilson won’t associate you with him. Do you want to lose your job over a reckless apprentice?""I was there, Fiona. Ms. DiLaurentis herself wanted him to be part of the Health Department. The letter has her signature," Vivian tried to explain to her colleague, but they only snorted in disdain."You really love trouble, Vivian. What if Ms. DiLaurentis signed his employment? Take a look at him—she must have found him by the roadside on her way to work and decided to be generous. It's her first day as the
Chapter 17
As Elijah took the staircase down with the elegant Vivian Cross, she said to him, "The last person recruited into the Health Department was Mr. Wilson's cousin, and that was two years ago. We haven't had an apprentice in years. You must be really close to Ms. DiLaurentis."He obviously couldn't tell her about his marriage to Serena.Elijah simply rubbed the bridge of his nose. "I was simply lucky.""That's a kind of luck that only comes once in a decade. Ms. DiLaurentis only hires the best of the best and never even accepts interns at this Medical Center," Vivian explained, and Elijah simply nodded in response.Now he understood why she disagreed with the old man about being the Director of the Department.That vile snake called Wilson Rosenberg.She made him Director instead.If only he had kept quiet last night, perhaps he would be Director this morning."You seem displeased with Ms. DiLaurentis’ decision for the new Director." This was the best way to stop this lady from questionin
Chapter 16
Elijah glanced briefly at Wilson before hurrying after Serena, who was long gone into the building.By the time he caught up with her, she was already entering the VIP elevator bound for the last floor.The VIP elevator was meant only for the CEO of the Medical Center and went straight to her office floor.Other staffs in the building, including the cleaners, were prohibited from using the elevator.When the medical center employees at the lobby saw the strange man entering the elevator with their beautiful CEO, they couldn't believe their eyes.How could this not start gossip?"Did anyone see that?" The front desk clerk couldn't help but whisper to her partner."We all saw that. Did Ms. DiLaurentis just allow someone in her VIP elevator? Could he be an executive of her father?" The other woman was equally as surprised as her."Executive? Did you see how ordinary he looked? The executives are always in suits worth two years of my pay." One of the closest staff couldn’t help but chirp
Chapter 15
The two guards froze at the sound of the voice, and even Elijah had to turn around because he didn’t recognize the male voice from anywhere before.The man in front of him was corporately dressed in a business suit and tie.He carried a briefcase in his right hand, and his chin was lifted in a prideful manner.“Mr. Wilson…” The two security guards hurried forward respectfully and even attempted to help him with the briefcase.“Why are you discussing during work time?” Wilson Rosenberg demanded coldly before glancing in Elijah’s direction. “And who is this?”The first security guard snickered and hurriedly asked, “Pardon me, Mr. Wilson, but do tell, did Ms. DiLaurentis open a recruitment in the Health Department?”The man frowned before responding in a scornful manner, “What nonsense are you saying? The Health Department is closed to recruitment, and now that I’m Director, I might not accept anybody.”The eyes of the men widened in surprise.“Mr. Wilson, you’re now the Director of the
Chapter 14
Mr. Jafari King was the leader of the well-known underground community, and even the great families of Brooklyn Heights might have to pay respect to him.He bowed to no one, but today he was this humble in the presence of an ordinary-looking man.Even his men didn’t believe he would go this far.Mr. King surely treasured his daughter, and her life was what truly mattered to him.After the death of the girl’s mother, Mr. King had stepped down from his position as the leader of the group and ordered a complete stop to the underground interference in the affairs of Brooklyn Heights.Many believed he blamed himself for the death of his wife, but all anyone could ever do was speculate about the matter.“Mr. King, I don’t need anything from you,” Elijah spoke calmly, frowning at the offer from the man.He didn’t strike him as someone who would give half of everything he had, but he had just witnessed his affection for his daughter.“It’s my duty as a physician to help the helpless. I hope y
Chapter 13
Bang!A gunshot echoed inside the room, and everyone froze in shock.This came as a surprise to the men in the room, as no one had expected the renowned physician to suddenly pull out a weapon.Who would have even thought that he would have the guts to handle a firearm?Unlike them who were involved in the affairs of the underground crime system and had fought wars in honor of their Boss, the old physician was simply involved with saving lives.Until today.A scream followed the dying echo of the gunshot, but to everyone’s surprise, it was the self-same old man.He clutched his hand and dropped to his knees, struggling to pull out the silver needle that had penetrated through his tendons.The old man had indeed fired the shot, but he had missed, and the ceiling was hit instead.This was because of the needle that had struck him just in time.Only one person had access to needles at that very moment in the room.All eyes turned to Elijah Langston, and there he was, fiddling with a pair
