In an instant, Justin understood Bella’s intention for calling Arnold. This move had been planned long ago.
“This is impossible... How is this possible?!” James snatched the medical report from Superintendent Donald, reading it over and over again. His eyes almost popped out of his head.
Hunter’s face went pale and tense as his heart raced.
“Mr. Iverson,” Arnold said as he glared at James with disgust. “It’s fine if you’re ungrateful. But trying to blame Charles’s old injuries on Bella’s secretary and then tampering with the injury assessment to hide the truth is just a low move.”
James and Hunter had talked before about blaming Steven for Charles’ injury to qualify for a serious injury charge, possibly getting a less severe punishment. That was why James sent someone to hide the real medical report and instigated Superintendent Donald, which resulted in the current situation.
But they never anticipated that their carefully planned scheme would be effortlessly exposed by the cunning foxes before them!
Bella gave Arnold a thankful look, and he responded with a glance that said, “No need to thank me.”
The Iversons thought they could control everything in Savrow, but they didn’t account for one thing. When it came to hospitals, the Larson family had the upper hand!
“Charles has lost his ability to have children. Bella should bear full responsibility!” James exclaimed in frustration, blurting out, “If it weren't for her performing that damn surgery on Charles... How could Charles end up like this?!”
The office went quiet all of a sudden.
Hunter’s heart sank. It was too late to stop him.
Before James could react, Asher had already shoved him back.
“Oh my! Mr. Iverson, be careful!”
James took several steps back in embarrassment. Without Superintendent Donald and Hunter’s quick support, he would have ended up falling awkwardly on the floor.
“Mr. Thompson! This is a police station. Do you really want to start a fight here?!” Hunter asked with gritted teeth.
“Of course I have no intention of doing that.” Asher tightened his strong fist, the sudden movement making his knuckles crack, and his gaze at James flickered with a menacing intensity. “But if he dares to raise his voice at Dr. Larson, I can’t promise that he won’t end up with a broken nose.”
