Chapter 312

The next day, Ben took Thomas to the hospital.

Though Thomas himself had no particular demands for the hospital, merely wishing to get by, Ben still chose a prime location for him, with top–notch facilities in the country. Ben also secured an experienced doctor to oversee things. With this arrangement, Thomas only needed to bear the title of hospital director, with little else to do but coast along.

Ben, accompanied by Thomas, met with several key figures from various departments of the hospital. Then, he formally announced Thomas’s appointment as the director.

At Ben’s declaration, murmurs and whispers began to spread among the crowd.

“A director so young? There must be some backdoor dealings.”

“Backdoor dealings? We’re a private hospital; what the investor says goes when it comes to naming the

director.”

“Exactly. They could appoint anyone, no matter how unqualified, and if Mr. Landor backs them, we’ve got no choice but to accept it.”

The staff discussed in hushed tones, careful not to openly express their dissatisfaction, yet their words dripped with disdain.

Thomas observed everyone’s expressions, taking it all in.

He could guess what they were all saying.

But it didn’t bother him.

His role as the director was just a front to bide time. Even the most exaggerated comments couldn’t wrong him.

After completing the handover, Thomas saw Ben out.

Pausing at the door, Ben turned to Thomas with a pointed look, “Looks like you’re not winning any popularity contests here.”

“Isn’t that expected? I mean, if I suddenly had to report to a useless boss, I wouldn’t be thrilled,” Thomas said, flashing a playful grin.

Ben narrowed his eyes slightly, “If they actually knew your true identity…”

“Drop it,” Thomas said, waving his hands dismissively with a look of appeal, “I’m content being a low- key director.”

Ben gave him a look, “This is Coraland. What happened in the past won’t repeat here.”

Back then, Thomas was outwardly a student, but in secret, he had made a significant name for himself, even revered by some patients as “the Medical Mystic“.

The Medical Mystic.

Not just anyone could bear such a title. It signified the pinnacle of medical skill and genuine recognition from patients.

Such fame brought admiration but also envy.

At that time, Thomas treated patients in secret, wearing a mask.
