My Ex-Husband Always Knew That I Had Cheated on Him-Chapter 354 - 352: Alexander Johnson Couldn’t Possibly Come to Save Her
Chloe Simpson’s face turned pale on the spot.
She’s been working in hospitals for so many years.
All the way up to being the head nurse at Ansun Hospital, the top private hospital, she’s heard quite a bit about these private hospitals’ unspoken rules.
Patient referrals, equipment and medication sharing, and leveraging fame—these are all pretty normal things.
And there’s also the exchange of gray benefits.
Lucas Hughes is now the youngest chief physician for infertility at Kyohai City’s top private hospital, Ansun Hospital.
Of course, all the smaller private hospitals want to curry favor.
But Chloe Simpson truly never expected Lucas Hughes to be so shameless.
The nearby private hospital president also cheekily hinted to Chloe, "Simpson, many times a person’s future is earned by themselves. Sacrifice and gain, you must give to get. I can tell you’re very smart and know what to do. Look how much Dr. Hughes values you."
"If things work out tonight, having such backing, you’ll certainly receive substantial assistance in your career, and it will progress rapidly."
Chloe Simpson clenched her fists tight, looked towards the president, and smiled as she spoke: "President, I think what you said is absolutely right."
Then, she stood up, faced Lucas Hughes, and cheerfully greeted him, "Dr. Hughes."
"Chloe, don’t worry, I won’t wrong you."
Lucas Hughes was full of smugness, believing he had victory in hand, already fantasizing about tonight’s delightful scene.
He’s seen Chloe’s body more than once and has long been captivated by it.
His longstanding wish was about to come true, and his eyes couldn’t hide the satisfied gleam.
Chloe continued to smile, "Alright."
No sooner did she speak than she grabbed a wine bottle from beside the table and smashed it towards Lucas Hughes.
"Lucas Hughes, you despicable swine and dog, I’ve long seen you for what you are—a scum, a beast—but I didn’t expect you to be this rotten, this completely without a bottom line."
"Ah! You! You filthy whore, how dare you hit me!"
Lucas Hughes winced from the pain, his head instantly bleeding profusely, each drop dripping down.
He reached to wipe the blood from his head and raised his hand to slap Chloe.
Chloe was prepared, holding the broken half of the wine bottle in front of her.
"Hiss! Ah!"
Lucas Hughes failed to hit Chloe, his hand slicing through the sharp edge of the remaining half of the bottle.
Due to the force he used, it opened a large cut.
For a moment, both his head and hand were bleeding.
Lucas Hughes was thoroughly enraged.
"You’ve gone mad! Director Hughes, are you alright?"
The nearby president and head of nursing hurried over to check on Lucas Hughes’s injuries.
"President Howard, is this the surprise you prepared for me tonight? I tell you, if tonight’s matter doesn’t end well, it won’t be over between us!"
Lucas Hughes, unable to act himself due to the pain, shifted all the blame to the private hospital president and head of nursing.
"Of course, rest assured, Dr. Hughes, I have everything prepared. Send them in."
The head of nursing smiled knowingly, and several strong men rushed in from the room’s entrance.
Chloe Simpson truly never expected this small private hospital to be so dark, pulling off such heinous acts.
It’s evident that these kinds of things have been frequent before.
Chloe looked around at the people in the room and panicked.
She thought tonight she couldn’t escape.
But at this moment she couldn’t panic; she pinched her thigh, using the pain to maintain composure.
"What do you want to do? Force me? I’m telling you, I’d rather die than let you succeed. You are all respectable figures."
"I advise you to think it over. If someone ends up dead in this room tonight, how are you going to handle it? So, you’d best let me go right now."
Chloe had no threat to make, only by risking her life did she have a slim chance.
She thought, having spoken this far, these people would have some scruples.
Unexpectedly, as soon as she finished speaking, the head of nursing burst into laughter.
"Hahaha! Death! Let me tell you, young girl, over the years I’ve been through quite a few things like this on my end, and with you? Risk your life? Are you really willing to give up your life? Huh?"
"I’m not scared easily. If you have the guts, slice your throat right now. Stop struggling, let me show you a bright future. Comply with Dr. Hughes and if he’s satisfied tonight—"
"Your future will definitely be smooth and worry-free. You know Dr. Hughes is the youngest chief physician in the most prestigious private hospital in Kyohai City. Many women dream of being with someone like him." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶
The head of nursing and the president of the private hospital had no idea of Chloe and Lucas Hughes’s relationship. He continued to persuade.
Chloe laughed even harder: "Others might care, I don’t!"
Without hesitation, she turned and dashed towards the door.
Holding the shattered wine bottle as a weapon, she frantically stabbed at the strong men blocking her path.
But ultimately, she was still just a weak woman. Though she reached the door with tremendous effort and wounded the men blocking her,
She was eventually pinned to the ground by several strong men who pounced from behind.
At this moment, Chloe ceased her struggles and resistance.
She knew she wouldn’t escape tonight; she couldn’t evade it.
Ha, never expected that despite fighting for so long, after all this effort, still had to resign to fate, still couldn’t escape Lucas Hughes’s grasp.
She hated, truly hated, gritting her teeth with anger.
Thinking about Lucas Hughes’s actions over the years made her sick to the point of nausea.
Chloe silently vowed that if she couldn’t escape tonight, she’d take Lucas Hughes down with her, never letting him succeed.
As she was racking her brains imagining, taking Lucas Hughes down, suddenly, there was a "bang," the door to the room was kicked open.
At that moment, the first image that flashed in Chloe Simpson’s mind was Alexander Johnson.
But she knew Alexander Johnson wouldn’t come to save her.
Since the moment Alexander Johnson had her chased out of the hospital, she knew she and Alexander would never have any connection again.
Let alone come to rescue her.
