Twin Treasures: The CEO Wife's 99-Day of Revelations

Chapter 1291: Chapter 1291: Poor Dr. Shelby

The kind of disgust and anger that Vera Ford felt was something she had never experienced in her life.

”I’m sorry, I was wrong!” Fearful that she wouldn’t even have a chance to apologize, Vera hurriedly knelt down, grabbing his wrist. ”Ian, please don’t fire me! I really didn’t bring those reporters! I had no idea it would turn out like this!”

”Ian, I beg you to believe me!”

Ian Shelby mercilessly shook off her hand, ”I don’t believe a single word you’re saying!”

”It really wasn’t me!”

”Go clarify with the media what really happened last night!” Ian glared down, spitting bitterly, ”And secondly, sign the resignation agreement, and don’t let me see you again!”

”No...” Vera’s thoughts were in chaos, ”Don’t do this...” She realized he wasn’t joking; he was genuinely angry.

Ian had no time to waste with her, ”Disappear quickly!” He gave her a particularly repulsed look and turned to leave.

”Ian!!” Vera’s heart trembled, her mind went blank.

Outside the door, passing medical staff witnessed the scene and were equally startled.

Dean Shelby stormed off angrily, and in the office, Dr. Ford had knelt down...

My God, what on earth happened?

But they didn’t dare linger, and because they were all very busy, they left with their doubts.

In the office.

After Ian left, Vera felt as if all her strength had been drained from her body, collapsing to the floor, clutching the corner of the table, swallowing with tears in her eyes.

Her throat couldn’t make a sound for a long time, and tears of grievance fell like broken pearls.

In the corridor.

Ian hurriedly walked towards his own office!

It was almost three in the afternoon, and he hadn’t even had time for lunch. He took out his phone and dialed Jocelyn Morgan’s number, only to find it turned off.

Ian realized something was wrong; she must have seen the news.

Just as he arrived at his office, a patient’s family member came looking for him, ”Dr. Shelby...”

Following that, his colleague Dr. Zhang walked in.

Ian told him, ”Help me check what’s going on.” Then he said to the family member, ”Dr. Zhang can help you the same way!”

After speaking, he turned to leave with his phone.

Ian quickly arrived at a large terrace, where it was quiet with few people. He stood by the railing and opened the WeChat conversation with Jocelyn.

After thinking for a moment, his slender fingers quickly edited a text—

”Jocelyn, I just finished a busy day. I’m sure you’ve seen the news. You must be very angry right now, but please, calm down and listen to my explanation. Last night, Vera followed me on her own. She confessed to me, and I clearly rejected her again, asking her to close the door on her way out. But unexpectedly, she went up to the guest room and slept there overnight without permission. Nothing happened between us, really. I only discovered her car the next morning, and I got really angry with her. I just handed her a resignation letter a moment ago.”

Having edited so much, Ian didn’t immediately send it out. He read it over again, wondering if it was too long and if she would have the patience to read it all?

So, he pressed the backspace key and deleted all the text.

Ian’s usually meticulous and calm heart was slightly unsettled.

She turned off her phone... He was guessing what her mood was at the moment.

After some thought, he edited a few more words: Jocelyn, please turn on your phone and call me back, okay?

Staring at these words for a long time... he finally pressed the send button.

The message failed to send!!

The other party has enabled verification, please add them as a friend first??

Ian’s heart skipped a beat. Did she really delete him from WeChat?

Just then, an anxious voice came through—

”Dr. Shelby!! Dr. Shelby is over there! Hurry!”

Ian turned his head at the sound, clutching his phone, to see two nurses urgently running in his direction. ”Dr. Shelby! The patient in bed 6 is having massive bleeding! The situation is extremely critical!”

Without a word, Ian sprinted towards them with his long strides!

In moments of life and death, Ian naturally put aside all personal matters.
