Nathan merely replied, “I’ve given you a chance. You’ve trampled all over it.”
Richard Steele’s voice was shaky, “I apologize, I’ll apologize right now...”
Nathan was impassive and retorted, “Didn’t you asked me to kneel down and lick your shoes just now? Why? You regret it now?”
Richard Steele could not seem to reply him.
“Be consistent and keep up with your bastard attitude. Your mannerism disgusts me. Get lost. I hope you learn your lesson this time and turn over a new leaf.”
As soon as Nathan finished his sentence, two of the North Army soldiers took the imitative to come forward.
They then dragged the wailing Richard Steele away from the scene.
The hospital had done all the preparations for the surgery while Richard Steele was causing a ruckus.
Dr. Rothschild then went into the operation theatre and performed the surgery on the patient.
Dr. Rothschild had studied the three workers’ medical history on his way to the hospital so that he could operate on them straight away.
The operation was done in just half an hour.
The operation was a successful one. The hematoma had been successfully drained from the patient’s head, effectively reducing the pressure on the brain, so the patient was no longer in a critical condition.
The doctors and family members waiting outside the operation theatre cheered with joy when the surgery was declared a success.
Dr. Rothschild truly lived up to his reputation. He immediately asked to prepare the other two workers for surgeries after he was done with the patient facing intracerebral hemorrhage.
After another two hours, the other two workers’ surgeries were also successful, and they were no longer facing life-threatening danger.
The news was widely broadcasted by the media; mainly accolades of Dr. Rothschild’s medical skills.

Leaders from governmental bodies, medical fields, and the riches alike expressed their wish to celebrate Dr. Rothschild’s successful surgeries.
However, they were all rejected by Dr. Rothschild. He decided to go to Penny’s house for a simple homemade meal instead.
The public was gob smacked at his decision, and it sparked a heated discussion on how Dr. Rothschild was related to Nathan Cross and Penny Smith.
Even Jerry Zabinski, who was scheming against Nathan and Penny, was bowled over.
He immediately ordered his subordinate to find out how Dr. Rothschild was related to both of them.
The result came back almost instantly. It was said that Nathan used to be a soldier in the North Army and that he was a master at chess. Rupert Rothschild played against him but even he was no match for Nathan Cross.
Dr. Rothschild who lost the game promised Nathan’s one wish with no conditions.
It was because of this that Nathan asked for Dr. Rothschild’s help this time.
Jerry Zabinski was enlightened upon hearing the report and snorted, “I was wondering how Cross and Smith could get Dr. Rothschild to perform the surgery. Dr. Rothschild has only promised them because he stayed true to his promise.”
His subordinate then added, “Now that Dr. Rothschild has fulfilled his promise, he is no longer related to Cross.” Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
Jerry then smiled wickedly, “Cross and Smith got lucky this time. I doubt they’re going to get this lucky again next time.”
After the dinner, Dr. Rothschild bid goodbye to Nathan, Penny and the Smiths.
He then got on a private plane and headed back to the North.
After Dr. Rothschild left, Sean Smith brought Samuel and Paul over.
Penny’s face darkened upon seeing them arrive. Her expression was hard to discern but she knew something big was going to happen soon.
Sean went straight to the point after sitting down and questioned Penny right away, “Penny, why didn’t you discuss the serious construction site accident with us right after it happened? We’re the shareholders, after all.”
Penny then explained, “Grandpa, uncles. I’ve been busy handling the matter ever since it happened last night.”
“It has been agreed that you guys will not be involved in the management of the company anyway. That’s why I have planned to deal with the matter first before calling for a shareholder meeting.”
Sean squinted his eyes, “Then how is it going?”
Penny continued, “The injured workers are no longer in a critical condition. This incident is now under control.”
“I’ll have to follow up on the treatment of the workers, plus the compensation for them now. I plan to discuss this part with you guys.”
Sean was irritated at her explanation, “There’s no need to tell me the details like medical fees, compensation, and whatnot. Just let me know how much Cross Corporation is going to lose this time.”
Penny replied in a small voice, “After some rough calculation, the loss is estimated to be about over a billion.”
