Chapter 219 Big Disrespect!
"What?"
Upon hearing this, Brandon and Zachary were dumbfounded.
Even the woman just now was stunned, unable to understand why the situation had changed so drastically.
"Kevin, why are you taking it back? Our hospital didn't do anything wrong," Brandon said, looking confused and pleading.
"Kevin, I beg you, please don't take back the radiation therapy equipment!" If they did, their hospital would lose out on a lot of money for the year.
"Why?" Kevin coldly laughed, walking behind Noah and looking at everyone, shouting sternly:
"Because you all lack respect!"
"Because you don't know who the real boss is!"
"Because you look down on people!"
"And yet you have the audacity to ask me why? You dare to kick Noah out of the hospital, but have you ever taken a good look at yourselves? Are you audacious enough to say such disrespectful things?"
After speaking, Kevin turned his gaze back to Noah, his expression immediately becoming respectful and serious, speaking in a deep voice:
"Noah, please don't be angry. I will now retract the rare metal radiation therapy equipment. If you have a need for it, we can arrange for you to go to another hospital where we also have rare metal radiation therapy equipment."
"Noah?"
Hearing this name, everyone was dumbfounded.
"This kid, could he possibly have some special identity?"
Seeing Kevin's respectful demeanor, Brandon's pupils shrank, and he felt a surge of shock and unease.
That respect came from the heart.
It was the respect that someone of lower status showed to someone of higher status.
Brandon couldn't imagine what kind of identity this kid had to receive such treatment from Kevin.
At the same time, Zachary's face turned ugly and his back went cold, feeling like he had kicked an iron plate.
Who could imagine that this seemingly ordinary teenager had such a terrifying background?
"I'm not the one who needs radiation therapy." At this moment, Noah spoke calmly.
Kevin's face changed instantly, and he quickly smiled apologetically:
"Noah, I misspoke. I thought it was you..."
As he spoke, Kevin's gaze landed on Grace beside him. Seeing her pale complexion and weak breath, he realized that she was the one who needed radiation therapy.
"Noah!"
On the other hand, Brandon's eyes flickered, and he immediately showed respect, saying:
"I was blind and disrespectful to Noah just now! I hope Noah can forgive me this time!"
Brandon wasn't foolish. Based on Kevin's attitude, he could tell that this young man had a special identity.
Moreover, Kevin referred to himself as "subordinate." It's very likely that this young man was a high-ranking member of the Benson Family, maybe even the boyfriend of the Benson Family heiress.
The most sensible thing to do now was to admit one's mistake immediately.
This matter was of great importance to their hospital as it determined whether they could acquire the rare metal radiotherapy equipment, so they had to handle it carefully.
Zachary's eyes also lit up and he followed suit, immediately showing respect to Noah, saying, "Noah, I apologize for disrespecting you earlier. I hope you can forgive me and not hold it against me."
"Heh, you apologize now? Isn't it too late? What were you doing earlier?" Kevin sneered coldly, glaring at the two of them. "You have shown great disrespect to Noah, and apologizing now is useless. The rare metal radiotherapy equipment must be taken back!"
Upon hearing this, Brandon and Zachary's faces turned pale, and they could only plead with their eyes, looking at Noah.
"Can I be the first now?" Noah folded his arms and looked at Zachary.
Zachary's eyes brightened and he excitedly said, "Of course you can! Noah, being the first was always meant for you!"
"Noah..." Kevin looked at Noah, "These two guys have completely lost their minds and disrespected you! In my opinion, there is no need to keep the radiotherapy equipment here! Why do you still want to..."
"I have my own plans." Noah raised his hand and said calmly.
Kevin's expression changed slightly, and he stopped speaking.
There was a reason why Noah chose to do the radiotherapy here. Although Zachary was somewhat conceited, he was ultimately the chief physician and had excellent medical skills. Noah felt at ease letting Grace receive treatment from him. Moreover, if they went to another hospital, Grace's condition might worsen.
"Brandon, Zachary, you can't take this first place..." a woman nearby immediately spoke up. "My father is critically ill and is also waiting for chemotherapy!"
"What do you think you are?" Zachary glared at the woman. "Don't you know the concept of first come, first serve? Just pay your money and wait in line like everyone else. Don't want to go to another hospital!"
Upon hearing this, the woman immediately became disheartened.
Noah looked at the woman mockingly and said, "In this society, only those with money and power can receive preferential treatment. You, who are ugly, poor, and lacking money and power, what qualifications do you have to compete with me for the first place?"
"You..." The woman's eyes widened, trembling with anger. The words Noah spoke were similar to what she had just said to him, but now the situation had been reversed. She wanted to argue back, but realized it would be futile because both Brandon and Zachary were now standing on Noah's side.
"Hmph, so having money and power makes you impressive? Does that give you the right to bully people?" The woman snorted coldly.
"Bullying people?" Noah's eyes were filled with mockery. "I treat others the way they treat me."
The woman finally stopped talking because from the beginning, Noah didn't use money or power to pressure her, he only spoke to her with reason.
Instead, it was she who used money and power to suppress Noah.
But now, her money and power mean nothing to Noah.
"Let's arrange for radiation therapy," Noah spoke up, it had already been a long time.
"Okay, Noah!" Zachary immediately had the nurse take Grace to the next room to prepare.
Noah and Scarlett found a place to sit down and waited quietly.
As for the woman, she could only obediently wait in line.
After about an hour, Grace was pushed out of the radiation therapy room.
Her face was pale, her breathing weak. Her long hair had been cut off and replaced with white gauze wrapping.
"Noah, the radiation therapy was successful. The patient now needs to rest. It is estimated that after about four treatments, the cancer cells will be completely eliminated," Zachary took off his mask and respectfully said to Noah. There were beads of sweat on his forehead, indicating that the radiation therapy process had consumed a lot of his energy.
"Thank you, Zachary," Noah said.
"No trouble! No trouble!" Zachary hurriedly waved his hand, looking surprised and flattered. "I was disrespectful to Noah before, but Noah didn't hold it against me. I admire his broad-mindedness!"
Zachary genuinely meant his words.
"Noah, what about the rare metal radiation therapy equipment..." Brandon also approached, hesitating.
"Just leave it in this hospital for now," Noah said calmly.
Upon hearing this, the two of them brightened up and thanked him profusely.
"Thank you, Noah!"
"Thank you, Noah!"
...
In the advanced nursing room, Grace slowly opened her eyes and the first thing she saw was Noah.
"Grace, how do you feel now?" Noah asked softly.
"The pain in my throat has decreased a lot," Grace said, her voice still weak.
Radiation therapy, no matter what, does cause some damage to the body.
