Chapter 92
Originally, Chris was already in a bad mood after what had happened, and then seeing Ben come with gifts made Chris feel even more annoyed.
Seeing Ben’s unrepentant attitude, Chris lost his sleepiness, took a shower, changed clothes, and started reading. After becoming the honorary chairman, Chris truly felt that time was really insufficient.
Besides seeing patients who registered every day, he also had to handle many miscellaneous matters, including the issue with Ben.
It seemed that Ben didn’t just bring gifts to Chris, for several consecutive days, people came to see Chris, trying to persuade the hospital to let Ben off.
After all, the patient’s family no longer pursued the matter, and the hospital had paid Ben a considerable humanitarian compensation.
The patient’s family had indeed spent quite a lot on the old man’s treatment over the years.
Now that the hospital had paid compensation, they said nothing more and took the old man’s body home.
Some people thought that since the patient’s family no longer minded, as long as Ben was not allowed–back on the operating table in the future, they could let this one slide.
But Chris refused to relent no matter what.
This time, even those who originally had no objection to Chris’s appointment now thought he was heartless, whispering endlessly behind his back.
Jake had long heard what those people were saying and had even argued with a few of them.
But he was only an intern doctor and still needed guidance from the elder professor.
If a fight broke out, it would definitely end up reported to the school, and Jake didn’t dare to go too far.
He was just very upset.
“All right, I didn’t take it seriously. What are you guys doing?” Chris smiled.
That meal at the Cosmos wasn’t eaten.
Today, only a few doctors and nurses who were on good terms and regularly interacted were invited, including the elder
professor.
The elder professor was the mentor of several intern doctors and often met with Chris.
“I agree with Chris’s view. People like that absolutely cannot stay in the hospital. Who knows what trouble he might cause in the future,” the elder professor said.
He hadn’t drunk alcohol and had hot tea in front of him.
The dishes at the Cosmos were definitely everyone’s favorites, served according to each person’s taste.
Ethan personally served the dishes, giving Chris a lot of face.
Jake and the other young people were visiting such a place for the first time.
After a while, the elder professor said again to Chris, “I heard Ben came to see you? Trying to smooth things over? Ben is just like that. When he wanted to be chairman, he brought me gifts, but I thought the council probably wouldn’t want a retiring old man, so I didn’t help. And now this happens.”
Actually, many people could see clearly, but Ben just couldn’t figure it out.

He insisted that Chris sabotaged his chance at becoming chairman
“He did come, but I didn’t let him in,” said Chris.

The elder professor laughed, knowing Chris’s temper, and wasn’t surprised that he didn’t even let him inside.
“What would he come in for? I don’t accept gifts, and I have nothing to say to Ben,” said Chris.
Jake added, “Dr. Wilson always had a bad temper. Many people in orthopedics said that after he failed to become chairman, he threw his temper around every day and was even less patient with patients than before.”
Since Ben was definitely not staying in the hospital, Chris didn’t care what those people said about him.
Jessica returned from her business trip abroad and brought many gifts for Chris.
If it had been before, Jessica wouldn’t have cared much about Chris
She would just have Shannon buy some expensive gifts, and the items would be stored in the collection room, never brought out.
But this time was different.
Jessica cared about Chris.
She also remembered when Chris wanted to come study in Lonat, but she had stopped him quite a few times.
This time, the gifts she brought back were quite novel.
