Rising from the Ashes BY Only For You

Chapter 14 Francesca glanced at Andrew from behind her desk , irritation rising at his seemingly indifferent attitude .

Dr.

Lloyd , dont you have anything to say for yourself ? Or do you admit to Dr.

Hacketts accusations and violation of hospital policy ? If so you can pack your things and leave this hospital .

I dont condone unruly behaviors here .

Andrew frowned .

Bernard seized the moment and chimed in , Dr.

Aicker , look at him ! He has no humility or respect .

Hes nothing but a thug .

Please , do something ! Francesca cut him off impatiently .

Enough .

You can go now .

Bernard was stunned .

Aicker , what are you Francesca interrupted him , I said leave .

Ill investigate the matter and handle it accordingly.

If Dr.

Bernard had no choice but to leave .
