SWNOVELS Chapter 730
He took a deep breath and said, "Ladies and gentlemen, I apologize for the inconvenience today. We have some matters to handle, so I must ask you to leave for now. Those who have passed the written exam, please follow the staff to the waiting room in the conference hall; the interviews will resume shortly." Once Mr. Tanner finished speaking, security stepped forward. It was obvious to everyone that Mr. Tanner wanted to downplay the incident. They obediently followed the security guards out while staff mingled among them to ensure their silence. No word of today's events was to leave the room.
Whether for Austenberg's sake or the honor of the National Medical Department, this incident, especially during the medical championship season, could not become a scandal.
Just like that, the crowd dispersed, and the matter seemed resolved.
Throughout the ordeal, no one had sought Flora's opinion.
Mr. Tanner looked at her apologetically. "Flora, we all believe in your innocence. Rest assured, we won't let word of this get out. It won't impact you in the slightest."
He paused, intending to urge Flora to let things go for the sake of peace, but he couldn't bring himself to say it.
"So, we're just going to sweep this under the rug?" Jules's expression was dark and filled with dissatisfaction. Was the reputation of the National Medical Department more important than Flora's own reputation?
"We can't continue this investigation, not with the potential repercussions at this sensitive time. You know this." Mr. Tanner admitted that this approach was somewhat unfair to Flora, but for the greater good, it was necessary.
His colleagues stood behind him in silent agreement. Indeed, the investigation could not continue. Should anything concrete be discovered, the National Medical Department would become a laughingstock.
Joy smirked triumphantly. Even if Flora could prove it was her doing, what would it change? Mr. Tanner and Ms. Abbey had already spoken; Flora had no choice but to keep silent.
Mr. Tanner continued, "Flora, on
behalf of the National Medical Department, welcome you to our team. Your talent is undeniable, and there's no need for you to participate in the interview. Report to the National Medical Department in five days, and if you have any needs, do not hesitate to inform us We will utilize all our resources to support your development."
Flora's talent was worth their investment.
"Flora, welcome to the National Medical Department." At this, the atmosphere finally became somewhat lighter, and the executives behind Mr. Tanner
warmly welcomed Flora's arrival.
Joy glared at Flora, furious that she had still been accepted into the National Medical Department! She must be overjoyed right now.
But Jules simply smiled. They handled the situation so poorly, yet they still expected Flora to join the National Medical Department? Were they too optimistic in their thinking?
Indeed, Flora finally spoke up. "When did I say I wanted to join the National Medical Department?"
Her voice was slow and mocking, her disdain clear to all present.
"Flora, you..." Mr. Tanner was taken aback.
"This place? I'm not interested." Flora lifted her gaze, her eyes slightly upturned with a hint of defiance I don't let myself be taken advantage of, nor do I tolerate
disrespect. You think you camel. To
suppress me? You might want to think again."
Mr. Tanner and the executives furrowed their brows. Though Flora had seemed amenable at first, they hadn't anticipated she would be so resistant.
