Liam looked at the doctor for a few seconds. He wanted to trust the doctor but he just couldn't. After hearing Anya, he started to doubt the doctor, especially because the doctor was anxious and panicking.
Whereas Anya was amazed. While busy catching high-profile criminals and minding her life, she had forgotten the little offenders who make those criminals.
How she wished to handle it her way - As Officer Owen. She was really missing her job.
'Making a scene.' The doctor had no idea how she could make a scene if she wanted. So she gave him a taste of it. "Doctor Stewart, if I may correct you..."
She flashed a captivating smile, giving a glimpse of her winsome dimples. In contrast, her eyes were sharp and her voice was frosty.
"If I cause a scene, I will bring a crowd of reporters to your doorstep, the dean of the hospital will be busy terminating you, your patients will run to other doctors while the internet will blow up with your extracurricular activities." She flashed a knowing smile, watching the doctor's eyes almost pop out of the sockets.
Fool a cop, you might get lucky. Lie to a lawyer, you could still be safe. Never play with a cyber expert. You won't get a hole to hide.
Doctor Stewart opened his mouth to counter but his chin quivered imagining what she said. Each word from her mouth didn't sound like a bluff but a glimpse of his future.
Liam ignored the doctor and what Anya said. He again questioned Anya, "What is going on here?" He was finding everything suspicious, yet he wasn't ready to draw any conclusion.
Anya turned to the man. She asked Alvin to forgive Liam for the past. She hadn't expected Liam would again step on her nerves. A part of her hated Liam for getting angry at Alvin. Nevertheless, she will let the stupid man know the extent his father could go. Then he will never utter a word against her husband.
She played a video on her mobile and passed it to Liam. She had attached a spy camera to the monitoring device when she went closer to it in Casper's ward.
Why don't people know yet that she was more advanced in technology?
She looked at the doctor who was shaking in his chair, without making a noise. Wilson and Janet's high drama was still fresh in the minds of people.
How could they forget the way she ruined the reputation, and career of people in no return?
Honestly, she wanted another high-profile legal situation so that people could know she won't let anybody cross her or her husband. They should fear before planning against her husband or trying to trick them.
Anya watered the fear she just sprouted in the doctor. "Should I sue you for slandering me? Or should I put an end to your career, Doctor Stewart?"
The punishment for his actions was revoking his medical license. Since the drama started by Casper, the doctor won't be imprisoned.
If Casper tries to save himself and pushes the blame on the doctor, then the doctor and his team would be imprisoned for years with a huge sum of penalty. Even the hospital will have to face the consequences.
Liam was stone shocked when he watched the video of Anya provoking Casper and the latter jerked up right after her. Even after unplugging the wires from Casper's body, the monitor was showing the same reading. Now it made sense why Anya was asking those questions.
What hit him hard was, Casper looked healthy as a horse and the butler seemed to be a part of the so-called drama.
He slowly got a hold of why Casper was always sleeping whenever he tried to meet him.
Why would a person wake up when he was pretending to be asleep?
He also deduced why the doctors didn't allow him or Harrison to reach top cardiologists. It would complicate things.
Anyway, he just couldn't believe Casper was faking a heart attack in the hospital while he was sleepless for two nights, having no appetite being worried about his father, and feeling useless for not being a capable son to his father.
It was infuriating, at the same time, he was glad Casper was healthy.
Wait... Casper should have been trying to stop Alvin but Casper was putting on a show and agreed to give him the powers of his position.
Why?
Did Casper think Alvin would change by the news of a heart attack?
Liam knows Alvin doesn't care even if Casper dies.
Then, what is Casper planning?
How did Anya get to know Casper was putting on an act?
Is Casper escaping something?
Liam asked Anya when his mind had already linked Casper with the problem that Alvin was tending in country A. "What did he do?" One will not miss reading the hint of revulsion in his tone, seeing him disgusted.
Before Anya could consider his question, her mobile rang, displaying 'Dear Husband' on the screen. She had sent him the link to watch the live video. Anya took her mobile from Liam and answered it immediately if anything serious. "Alvin!?"
[Little Donut, Casper Matthews shouldn't sign the emancipation paper.] His stern voice sounded, coming straight to the business.
It's true, Alvin didn't want to have anything to do with the Matthews. However, if Casper was so eager to get rid of him for his convenience, he didn't want Casper to have his way.
Was Casper faking a heart attack? Then Alvin wanted Casper to have a brain stroke with the excessive stress.
Anya didn't know what his whole plan was. Since he and his team were busy, she could handle the piece of paper, "Consider it's done."
[No news about drama should be leaked.] Alvin simply wanted Casper to face the consequences of his plan. [And Little Donut...] There was a deliberate pause before his sinister voice sounded, [Join the game.]
Anya's lips curled up when she deduced the game. Her husband was devious. He won't start the game but he will turn everyone's game around by interfering.
He wanted her to have control over the group that was working for Casper. They will continue the drama, but Alvin will be the scriptwriter and she will be the director. "We will show them how to play."
[Goofball, have fun.] Anya looked at the mobile and hid her smile. It had been a long time since he called her Goofball.
Resting her hand on the desk, Anya watched one by one enter the office room. Since the night shift staff were still in the hospital, everyone was available.
Some were nervous and some were curious. Liam was still waiting for her response. And she flatly asked him, "Were there more?"
Liam glanced at the nine members. "There are two..." He paused when he saw the home cardiologist and his assistant enter the office. "Everyone is here."
Liam was expecting Anya to reprimand all and storm into Casper's ward. However, Anya suddenly stood up and flashed a sweet smile at the crowd. "We are very grateful for your quick actions that saved my father-in-law's life. A thank you will fail to express our gratitude. Your efforts won't be forgotten." She sounded polite.
