Chapter 415 Wrong Idea
No one saw it coming.
Mr. Norman's face shifted, his tone suddenly much sterner. "It's good that you're aware of your place as a young one," he said, his voice sharp.
He gave a deliberate pause before continuing. "But, frankly, I can't trust you with Cameron's dry needling surgery. How about we make it a live broadcast? That way, us older folks can guide you along."
Suzanna froze, her mind racing. She hadn't anticipated such an open challenge.
At that moment, Bernard burst onto the stage, his expression frantic. "Mrs. Moore, it's urgent—Mr. Martin ... "
His words hung in the air, leaving the crowd in stunned silence.
It had been four long years.
Martin's condition had lasted longer than anyone thought it could. Now, both Spencer and Martin were at Sommerville Hospital. Melody had done what she came to do and was preparing to leave.
The normally composed girl lowered her eyes, offering Tyrell a comforting glance. "Dad, let's go."
She had secured Cleussau's honor and the prize. But in that instant, it seemed like Melody was on the verge of losing the one person she held most dear.
Suzanna, seeing her opportunity, feigned panic. "Melody ... did something happen to Martin?"
She took a brief pause, then continued, "You ... you need the Veinspire Codex more than I do. Why don't I lend it to you first?"
Her words came across as noble and selfless, earning her a great deal of favor from the crowd.
"Well, this Suzanna does have a heart. When it's life and death, Martin's health certainly comes first ... "
Tyrell, observing the scene with a cold stare, moved forward and struck Sean with a resounding slap.
The sound of the slap reverberated, loud and clear.
Sean's face drained of color, humiliated in front of everyone. His anger boiled, but he didn't dare to retaliate.
Tyrell's stature and authority were too much for him.
"Sean," Tyrell said, his voice sharp with contempt, "Has the Shields ever gone bankrupt?"
"I'm giving you one night. Prepare yourself."
