Right Person, Wrong Time

Chapter 337 You Wouldn’t Dare!

Knowing Pierre’s medical malpractice, how could Nicole possibly be unable to figure out his thoughts? Thus, she

merely sneered and thought, Surely he wouldn’t dare to sign the medical liability waiver.

After all, that’s his ultimate ticket to be free from all possible legal charges. Besides, once the medical liability

waiver is signed, he won’t be held accountable even if Old Mr. Benedict dies during the surgery!

Thinking of that, she had the sudden urge to challenge him. Hence, she added, “According to White’s protégé, she

doesn’t need to sign a medical liability waiver for this surgery.

Furthermore, she’s willing to bear legal responsibility if anything happens. Dr. Toth, I won’t stop you if you’re brave

enough to proceed with Old Mr. Benedict’s surgery!”

In the meantime, Anna was stunned after she heard Nicole’s words. Turning her head to look at Nicole, she asked

with slight trembling in her tone, “Nicole, are you sure about what you said?”

As Nicole could comprehend the doubtful tone in Anna’s question, she didn’t get angry with the woman at all.

Furthermore, it was normal for Anna to have such doubts because it generally signified that the doctor had great

confidence in the surgery if they would forgo signing a medical liability waiver.

For that reason, it wasn’t easy for patients to find a doctor who would forgo signing a medical liability waiver before

performing a surgery. After all, the hospital would still require the patient’s family members to sign a medical

liability waiver even if the surgery’s success rate was 99.9% as they were afraid of the possible occurrence of any

surgical mishaps.

Like greased lightning, Anna’s words wiped the initial smirk off Pierre’s face and he was now left speechless.

At that moment, thoughts began running through his mind. I’m here to send Old Mr. Benedict to his deathbed,

considering I have accepted the payment from Bryan. What’s more, the risk for this surgery itself is extremely high.

I bet the success rate is less than 30% even if the surgery is performed by a team of top-tier brain specialists. And I

even purposely boasted about my medical expertise and told them that I’m confident that the success rate of this

surgery is 50% just so I can get my hands on it.

Then, I’ll take the money given by Bryan and enjoy my life once I perform the surgery. Yet such a woman suddenly

meddles halfway and asks me not to sign a medical liability waiver?! Without a doubt, she’s asking me to get behind

bars! Not only that, I’m afraid I’ll rot and die in jail, considering the power behind the Gardner Family!

When Nicole heard Anna’s question, she nodded in assurance. Then, she grimly looked straight at Pierre. “What’s

the matter, Dr. Toth? I have absolutely no opinion if you have the confidence and are willing to do the same.”

At this juncture, Pierre was extremely displeased with Nicole. His face reddened with rage and he said angrily,

“Ridiculous! A medical liability waiver needs to be signed even if it’s just a simple operation these days.

Not to mention that I only have confidence that the surgical success rate is 50% and not 100%. Even the late White

Nicholson can’t even guarantee that the success rate of this surgery is 100%!”

After hearing that, Nicole smirked. Later, as she stared daggers at him, the corners of her lips formed into a sneer.

“Since White’s protégé is willing to forgo signing a medical liability waiver, that means she’s confident enough with

the surgery. You can do the same too if you possess such a high degree of confidence and aren’t convinced with

her medical expertise.”

Although he showed no signs of panic on the surface, he was actually breaking into cold sweats. I didn’t have much

confidence in Benedict’s condition in the first place. But now, I even had to be forced into a corner by this young

lady in front of me.

Nonetheless, he still insisted despite not feeling confident, “That’s absolute nonsense! Instead of coming up with

such a lame excuse, you guys could just tell me directly if you guys don’t need me. Aren’t you all afraid that the

others will laugh their heads off once they find out?”

Completely disregarding Pierre, Nicole snorted coldly and asked directly, “What’s the matter? Are you saying you

won’t dare? Or could it be that your original intention was to send Old Mr. Benedict to his death bed? After all,

you’re going to sign a medical liability waiver. Am I right?”

Meanwhile, Queenie, who had been staying silent, was shocked by Nicole’s words. Believing that Nicole had

discovered her sinister plot, she hurriedly stepped forward and stood in front of Pierre.

“Sis, I was thinking of making a little effort regarding Old Mr. Benedict’s matter, so I kindly went to seek for Dr. Toth.

Yet, I never expected you would be saying such things. Since you’re going to have such thoughts, I won’t be the

kind person anymore.”

After that, she turned to look at Pierre. Looking deeply apologetic, she explained to Pierre, “Dr. Toth, initially it was

me who invited you over and seeked your help in treating Old Mr. Benedict. But I didn’t expect this to happen now.

I’m really sorry.”

Pierre’s facial expression gradually turned better as he listened to Queenie giving him an out. Waving his hand, he

sighed, “Now that the Gardner Family has already come up with their own plans, I’ll no longer interfere with this

matter. I shall take my leave first.”

Once he finished saying that, he turned around and left the Gardner Residence.

Watching as Pierre had left, Queenie then said to Olivia, “I’m going to see Dr. Toth off.”
