As the livestream ended, Owen said quietly, “Technology is really something these days. Even in a livestream environment, under direct filming, someone can still manage to cheat. The funniest part is, even Tommy got fooled by Yunice’s acting. I can’t imagine how much he’s going to regret defending her in the livestream when he sees what she’s really capable of in college.”

Elsie slowly munched on some fruit. “Tommy could’ve stayed a legend at MedTech forever. It’s a shame Yunice’s going to end up being a stain on his life. Just goes to show, you can’t go sticking your neck out for people casually.”

Owen nodded.

Just as the two finished talking about Yunice, someone knocked on Elsie’s hospital room door.

The department director from General Hospital came in, coughed awkwardly with his fist over his mouth, and said, “Ms. Yunice, after discussion in our hospital meeting, we’ve decided that you should take a break from work for a while.”

Elsie asked, “Why?”

Paul hadn’t shown up at the hospital for a long time, and the director had started looking down on Elsie because of it. He didn’t even bother to be tactful anymore. “You’ve been in the spotlight a lot lately. The hospital’s worried that someone might use your internship against us and cause negative publicity. We’re suspending your position for your own good. Once things settle down, you can come back to work.”

Others might not know how Elsie got her internship at General Hospital, but the director and hospital president did. They didn’t want to take that risk.

After the director left, Elsie burst into tears again. “Owen, I’ve been working so hard this past month, and I was just about to get a full–time offer. Now it’s all gone because of one sentence from my sister…”

Owen was furious too, but he couldn’t interfere with the hospital’s decision.

“People online are still questioning Yunice. I’m worried that if she gets desperate, she’ll throw you under the bus. Let’s just keep a low profile for now.”

Yunice had an audience now. One sentence from her could steer public opinion. Owen could only step out of the spotlight for the moment.

What he didn’t expect was that Yunice didn’t post anything online–instead, she came to the hospital alone.

When the Saunders family saw her, they were all pretty surprised.

Owen stood up angrily, “Didn’t you say you block people and mute them? Didn’t you say you didn’t dare confront me? And now you’ve actually got the nerve to come find us?”

Lily pulled Owen back and spoke gently. “Owen, talk properly. Maybe she came to apologize.”

Yunice was carrying a fruit basket, and she really did look like she was here to apologize.

Owen’s expression softened a little.

Yunice walked in. Elsie sat on the bed, wiping her tears. “Yunice, I got suspended from the hospital.”

Yunice said, “It’s all my fault for calling your name during the livestream. If I hadn’t, you wouldn’t have been dragged into this.”

When Owen heard she really had come to apologize, he turned his face and said, “What’s the point of saying this now? I think you did it on purpose to drag Elsie down with you.”

Yunice explained, “I really wanted to prove I didn’t cheat. I thought, since my sister’s a grad student, I could ask her for help.”

Hearing that, Lily frowned, and Owen stood up abruptly. “So you were cheating. You were trying to drag Elsie into it. You knew her academic background-”

Owen said angrily, “No matter what, this was your mistake. You’ve been away from home for a long time. You don’t know how bad business has been. Elsie’s been working so hard during her internship at the hospital, doing everything she can to go full- time. She hasn’t even had time to come home at night. And now, just because of you, she got suspended. With consequences this serious, all you bring is a crappy fruit basket?”

He kicked over the fruit basket Yunice had brought.

Yunice looked down at the orange that had rolled to her feet, then slowly looked up and said, “Then what should I do?”

Owen took a deep breath. Knowing Yunice wasn’t good at picking up on things, he just laid it out for her. “You got Elsie fired, so of course you have to get her another job.”

Yunice said, confused, “But I don’t know anything, and I can’t do anything. I can’t even find a job for myself. How can I get one for her?”

Owen lowered his voice, furious. “You don’t know anything, but doesn’t Wyatt?”

Yunice looked down. “He doesn’t really like talking to me. If I say too much, he’ll definitely get annoyed…”

Owen thought she had a point. Yunice had a sharp tongue and always rubbed people the wrong way. If she went to talk about it herself, there was a real chance she’d ruin everything.

Owen coached her. “Just go tell Wyatt to give Elsie a position–anything. For him, it’s just a matter of saying the word. Of course he’ll help.”

Yunice looked at Elsie and said, “But that’s pulling strings. Isn’t she always upright and tough? Would she really do something so shameless?”
