Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 314

“Oh, right. You mentioned that treating that patient would be good for the hospital, didn’t you? So, I hit up Ben for a favor. We had someone sneakily grab a sample from the patient, and Ben got another expert to run some tests. Turns out, it’s a bacterial issue. I’ve jotted down the exact strain. You guys can handle it from here, right?” Thomas said with a yawn.

Mr. Cavanaugh looked at Thomas, “To diagnose in just one night, this expert must be no ordinary person. Director, can you tell me who he really is?”

“It’s someone Ben brought in; I’m not clear on the specifics,” Thomas said, waving his hand dismissively, “Why get hung up on that? Let’s just concentrate on the patient’s care.”

Mr. Cavanaugh was struck dumb.

He felt something was off.

But if it wasn’t for Ben’s help, could it be Thomas who made the diagnosis?

That seemed even more impossible.

“Get going; don’t delay my breakfast.” Thomas started shooing him away.

Mr. Cavanaugh left in a daze.

Standing at the door, he glanced over the test results and a smile began to form on his lips.

No matter what, the patient was saved!

Back in the office, Thomas ate a few bites of his bagels and then lay down for a nap.

Darn it! Laziness had become second nature; suddenly ramping up the pace was seriously jarring.

In the future, he decided not to take on such tasks!

Isn’t there something great about being a doctor who just goes with the flow?

Glancing at his phone, Thomas answered groggily, “Hello? Ben?”

There was a pause on Ben’s end before he finally spoke, “Your Vice Dean called my secretary to express his gratitude. He said it was thanks to the specialist I brought in that they could pinpoint the diagnosis. Thomas, what’s your take on this?”

Thomas cleared his throat, “It’s not a bad thing. How about you take the credit for it?”

Ben quirked an eyebrow, “Thinking of making a comeback?”

“It was just a fluke,” Thomas quickly explained, “I just felt bad for the patient and lent a hand. But keep it under wraps, will you? I’m all about that easy–going lifestyle.”

After hanging up, Ben raised an eyebrow and personally made a call to Mr. Cavanaugh.

“Yes,

it was an expert I found. Though not famous, he’s very capable.”

“Next time you run into a tough case, just take it to Director Smith. He’ll get it to me.”

“Want to meet the expert? No need, he’s not one for the spotlight. Just follow my lead.”

“Just make sure to add some heart–wrenching photos of the patients in each file; the more pitiful, the better.”

“Yeah, send over some more case files.”

After hanging up the phone, Ben put away his cell phone, a deep meaning flashing in his eyes.

He thought, “Oh, Thomas!

Just admit that you were never cut out to be a mediocre doctor.
