Chapter 1430 Journalists Barge In (1/2)

The man spoke so aggressively that Emily had to shift around to avoid the spray of saliva from his mouth. ”Sir, I didn't mean that. How about this? You can go over there and fill in the form with your personal information. Free consultations start at nine o'clock. You can wait in the lobby until then.”

”Why should I wait? Why won't you let me see a doctor right now?” the man asked, disappointed and seemingly hurt. He pushed Emily away and began to rush inside. ”I want to see a doctor. Don't try to stop me!”

”Sir, you...” Emily began. Subconsciously, she reached out to stop him. As soon as her hand touched him, however, he stumbled and fell back with an exaggerated expression of pain on his face.

”Ow! She hit me! What kind of a clinic is this? How dare you hit a patient?” He lay on the ground, waving his arms wildly. ”It hurts! It hurts! She hit me!”

Emily immediately saw through him and her face darkened. It was clear to her that this man was deliberately stirring up trouble for some reason.

”Sir, we are an established public service organization. If you think you can come here and play your dirty tricks on us, you've come to the wrong place.” With cold eyes, she turned around and instructed the person in charge, ”Call security immediately, and have them escort this man out.”

Without hesitation, the personnel did as he was told.

Amid the chaos, no one noticed the man with a black hat standing in the corner, secretly filming everything.

In the CEO's office, Darren slowly flipped through the photographs in his hands.

He asked coldly, ”Are the articles and pictures ready to be published online?”

Harlan nodded and replied confidently, ”They are. Everything is in order. As soon as the news of Emily laying a hand on a depressed patient comes out, everyone will brand her a hypocrite.”

”You just wait and see, Emily,” Darren said softly. A cold smile formed on his lips as he brushed her face in the photo with his finger.

In the picture, Emily, with her outstretched arms, seemed to be shoving the man onto the ground. The depressed man was about to fall on his back, looking powerless and vulnerable.

It took a long time for the free clinic to end. Emily was about to head back to her office to get some rest when she received a call from Rita.

”Hello, Rita,” she answered. Exhausted, she rubbed the area between her eyebrows as she made her way to her office.

”My dear Emily, take a look at the news on the internet! You're screwed!” The anxiety in Rita's voice was alarming.

Emily had no idea what she was talking about. Worried, she quickened her pace.
