“I want her off the contract, Gina said coldly.

Annoyed by Gina’s calm demeanor, Olivia retorted sarcastically, Miss Miller, are you mistaken? Here isn’t Prover Hospital, and you’re not the dean. You don’t have the final say.”

“You don’t have the authority to refuse me either,” Gina said casually.

Olivia’s expression changed immediately. She dared not confront Gina, but the anger burned inside her, causing her to

ache

Gina continued, “Your so-called blood supply contracts are utterly unreasonable.”

“It’s unreasonable but legal,” Olivia smirked triumphantly. “It’s all written clearly. They signed voluntarily. Any objections?”

Uninterested in further conversation, Gina said, “As I said, I want to see your supervisor or the dean.”

“Our dean isn’t someone you can just see whenever you please, Olivia asserted, bolstered by Nicolas’s influence, showing a hint of defiance.

“Olivia Miller, let me remind you, my patience is limited. Before I lose interest in talking to you nicely, comply with my request, or else… Gina warned sternly, her expression turned cold.

Olivia didn’t dare to confront Gina head-on. She knew that if Gina wanted, she could easily manipulate the situation to her advantage. Now wasn’t the time for her to challenge Gina, “I’ll go and see if Dr. Jacquard has any availability,” Olivia said

with

a stiff expression.

Cathy sensed the unusual tension between the two but refrained from prying further. Following Olivia’s lead, Gina arrived at Nicolas’s office.

“You can’t go in. Miss Miller, surely you won’t disregard basic courtesy?” Olivia said, her tone resolute.

Gina had no intention of barging in. She remained silent as Olivia breathed a sigh of relief and entered his office. However, he was absent, and Olivia was unsure of his whereabouts, so she called.

“What do you mean, Gina Miller showed up? How did she find out about this? What’s going on?” Nicolas asked.

He was furious, which startled Olivia. “She… has a blood donor who knows her. They must have told her about it”

“Who’s that despicable person?” Nicolas gritted his teeth. If Gina were to discover their true intention behind collecting blood, not for treatment or replenishing the blood bank, but for selling it, it would be a big problem.

“Cathy Fowler, Olivia replied.

“Cathy Fowler, alright, alright… Nicolas chuckled coldly.

“Are you planning to do something to her?” Olivia asked, observing his intense anger.

“Are you a fool?” Nicolas redirected his pent-up frustration towards Olivia. “Since they knew each other, Gina will delve deeper into our blood collection scheme if I target Cathy. Right now, our focus should be on diverting Gina’s attention. Also, stop recruiting blood donors for a while and reduce the frequency of blood draws. If Gina wants Cathy’s contract, give it to her. Let’s settle things with Gina first before any confrontation.”

“Alright…” Olivia had expected Nicolas to confront Cina, but he seemed keen to avoid it. She realized that, at the moment, Colin Barnes was her only hope to counter Cina. She had to find a way to get on his side.

Olivia walked out of the office feeling a bit uneasy. “Dr. Jacquard isn’t here, but I called him. He said when Miss Fowler

Cathy bettsted for a momerit, unsure of what to say. She felt intimidated by Olivia’s aggressive questioning. ‘I went into shock, so I don’t want to be a mobile blood bank anymore,” she explained timidly

“Miss Fowler, you and your boyfriend initially expressed a need for money, mentioning your desire to buy a house in Norwood together. Unfortunately, the housing prices were too high, even if you scraped together a down payment. The

anquent risortgage payments and living expenses would have significantly strained you. So, you signed the contract with in Cher hospital maintains a moderate blood donation schedule, yet you’re the only one who encountered issues. “Olivia

and her tone laden with implication

wanting to delay. Olivia handed Cathy « contract to Gina, who then handed it to Cathy Tear it up,” Gina said. Then, the contract would no longer be effective.

Oliva felt a twinge of frustration. Losing a blood donor meant less profit for her. She couldn’t fathom why Gina had to meddle in everything. Her tone was sarcastic as she added. “Miss Fowler since you’ve breached the contract, it seems you’ve found someone influential to back you up. We won’t be able to reclaim the penalty fee, but you’ll have to return two-thirds of the payment we gave you earlier, around 20 thousand dollars. As for the gifts we provided you for blood replenishment, you can keep those And If you refuse to comply Blue Vale won’t let it slide. Her words carried an undertone of threat. unspoken aloud in the presence of Gina, but Olivia hoped Cathy would understand.

Cathy was foolish. She understood that refusing could bring trouble from Blue Vale in Gina’s absence. Gina might protect her once, but not indefinitely. Til comply and refund,” she said.

“That’s good” Olivia said with a hint of satisfaction

After Gana helped Cathy regain her freedom, she showed no intention of staying longer. Turning around, she left, with Cathy quickly following her footsteps.

Gina’s paze darkened as she stepped out of the hospital, there was something wrong with this hospital. She would never allow a supposedly reputable medical institution to engage in activities that endangered lives. Despite the hospital’s size, attracting blood donors like Cathy, there were likely many others. The lure of high salaries was significant, for now, Gina had nu evidence. She could help Cathy but couldn’t find other done to convince them otherwise. She needed to know what Blur Vair was deutig with all that blood

“Miss Miller, Miss Miller” Cathy’s voice interrupted Gina’s thoughts.

She turned to look at Cathy: “What’s wrong”

“Thank you for saving me? Cathy expressed her gratitude. “1-1 wind a way to repay your she promised earnestly.

“Alright” Gana nodded lightly and asked, “Apart from persuading you to become a blood donor, did your boyfriend encourage others to do the same?”
