Chapter 72
Joel stuttered, “I–1” He could no longer think straight after having questions thrown at him one after another. At that moment, he didn’t know how to explain.
“Dr. Clarke, as the head of a department, Dr. Lynch took bribes from others and transferred a patient without the family’s consent. I’ll leave it to you to decide how to solve this,” Michael said.
Hubert was furious. He glared at Joel, frustrated at the latter’s deed. “Joel, what else do you have to say for yourself?
With the evidence laid out before him, Joel knew he could hide it no longer. Stammering, he said, “I’m sorry, Dr. Clarke. I’m sorry. I wasn’t in my right mind… I’ve leamed my lesson. I won’t do it again.”

joel never expected this matter to be so serious. Ethan clearly told him Celeste was a young woman able to cause him trouble
But now, the officers, Hubert, and Michael were all standing before him.
Hubert asked. “Is it me you should be apologizing to? You should be apologizing to Ms. Hart” Celeste was expressionless. She coldly asked, “joel, where is my mother?”

Joel’s expression was sour. Noting his silence, the officers walked up to him. “Dr. Lynch, if you responsibility if anything happens to Mrs. Hilton

then was the one who picked Miranda up. How would Joel know where they’d gone?
“If so, you have no choice but to come with us. We’ll see how it goes after we find the patient.” John walked forward with a pair of handcuffs.
Upon leaming that he was about to be detained, joel lost his cool. He shouted, “Ethan’s the one behind this. My job is only to settle the transfer procedure. You should look for him if Miranda’s missing. Why would you arrest me?”
He couldn’t let them arrest him. If word got out, his reputation as a doctor would be tamished. How was he supposed to thrive in this field?
Hubert was infuriated. He glared at Joel. “Miranda went missing here, and you were the one who got the procedures done. So, of course, you have to take responsibility Besides, you accepted bribes too. Do you think you can escape?”
Hubert never expected that something like this would happen in the hospital and that Joel could still speak so matter–of–factly.
Defeated, el grabbed Hubert’s hand in agitation. “No, Dr. Clarke, please help me. If word gets out, it’ll affect the hospital greatly. Dr. Clarke, I promise I won’t do such an idiotic deed again.
Hubert said coldly. “Joel, you’re officially dismissed from now on.” No matter what, Joel had no right to continue working at the hospital.
He was dismissed… Joel paled.
He fell on his bottom on the floor. He never would’ve expected that because of the deed he did out of greed, he had to give up his entire career. And he’d finally become the head of the department too after all those;
e years of effon.
Please dont do that, Dr. Clarke Joel paled further. Tuming to Celeste, he apologized, “Ms. Hart, I’ve leamed my mistake. Please help me. I beg you.” Celeste ignored! the asked the police, “Officer, now how are we to find my mother?”
Erhan took Miranda anway, to naturally, they should confront him about it.
Meanwhile, Hart Estate was peaceful
Ertan sat on the couch. He was in a good mood. He could already imagine Celeste being on tenterhooks. So what it she called the police? The police would only handle cases of missing individuals after 24 hours.
