Chapter 48 I Wouldn't Allow Anyone to Bully My Fiancée
Previously, Raymond had not cared about the rumors on the Internet in the slightest. He always
thought that people were sensible and could tell right from wrong. Thus, it was unnecessary to explain
too much.
However, Bethany had to bear the pain and lay in bed here to go through treatments, while the
comments on the Internet turned into a sharp knife to stab her again. Raymond would by no means
turn a blind eye to it now.
Nolan was always efficient at work. In less than half a day, this trending topic was removed and
replaced by another one.
[The twist of the female doctor's incident in Humanity Hospital. The hospital director, many of her NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
colleagues, and insiders revealed the truth of the previous medical accident.]
It was exactly why Raymond called Mr. Hoover. Mr. Hoover and Bethany's colleagues all spoke for
Bethany about the previous accident.
They explained the causes and consequences. Besides, all the relevant surveillance footage in the
ward and operating theater on the day of the surgery as well as Zander Berger's medical records in
detail were released.
"There is finally a twist to the incident. Isn't it self-evident enough with the surveillance footage and
medical records? I always thought that the son of the deceased acted like a ruffian at that time, and it
turns out to be true!"
"That female doctor is so kind. She gave priority to the patient's life and even paid 75,000 dollars as
compensation on her own for the incident. She has suffered from cyberbullying for so long. How pitiful!"
"I hope she will get better soon..."
Now the direction the wind blew changed. Raymond looked through a few comments, but he didn't ask
whether these comments were sent by netizens or arranged by Morgan. At least, he didn't see curses
or abusive comments anymore.
This time, Bethany did sleep well. She had experienced excruciating pain when she first woke up.
Finally, the pain was taken away by the injection, so she could be asleep soundly.
When she woke up again, she wasn't as miserable as before although she was not much better.
Bethany was just about to say something to Raymond, but the latter hurriedly said, "You're still
powerless, so speak less. The doctor said you still couldn't eat within 48 hours after you woke up. If
you are hungry, you have to put up with it for now."
Hungry?
She was starving indeed at the moment, but she had no appetite at all.
"Do you still feel painful anywhere now?" Raymond asked again.
Bethany just shook her head.
Bethany's lips were badly chapped, so Raymond hastily wetted the cotton swab and was about to wipe
them. Noticing that, Bethany looked reluctant to let him do it.
"Stay put. I'll finish it in a minute."
Bethany was actually unable to move, so she could only let him be.
She had known Raymond for some time, and he had always given her orders condescendingly.
Therefore, she felt it was quite weird when he suddenly became so gentle...
Had he always been here these days?
"You had a fever and sweated bullets from the pain these days. Your body must feel uncomfortable. I
found a female nurse for you. How about letting her wipe your body," Raymond asked.
Bethany was now in a mess, and she felt so ashamed in front of Raymond being like this. However,
she really couldn't move at the moment. As she sweated profusely when she was in pain, her body
indeed felt uncomfortable now.
Before Bethany replied to him, Raymond called the nurse here. Perceiving that Bethany's current
situation was still stable, he told the nurse, "Be sure to be gentle when wiping her body. Don't hurt her.
I'll go out and probably won't be back until the evening."
"Will do, Mr. Zavala."
Then, Raymond left the hospital. He was going to meet Aria. Now the film crew that Aria was in was
near Parkville, and he could drive back and forth in half a day.
After Raymond left, the nurse wiped Bethany's body gingerly, and Bethany really felt a lot more
comfortable after doing so.
"Ms. Caldwell, Mr. Zavala said he had some errands to run and wouldn't be back until the evening. If
you need anything during this time, just tell me," said the nurse.
Was Raymond gone?
"OK," Bethany answered slowly.
"Ms. Caldwell, these days when you were in a coma, Mr. Zavala was so attentive to you that he stayed
at the bedside all the time and never left," the nurse uttered.
Raymond had been staying at her bedside these days? It took Bethany by surprise.
-
When Raymond arrived at the crew, Aria was filming. She was so surprised to see him and, therefore,
worked harder.
After the director said "cut", she couldn't wait to run towards Raymond. She asked with surprise, "Ray,
what brings you here? Why didn't you tell me before you came? Is this a surprise you give me?"
"Stop playing dumb!" Raymond directly took out his mobile phone and found her tweets, asking, "Did
you send these?"
Aria's heart skipped a beat. With other staff around, she was afraid that Ray would lose his temper in
front of them regardless of her dignity. "Let's talk about it in my makeup room," she said.
When the two got into the room, Aria played innocent and asked, "Ray, you went out of the way to see
me just because of my tweets?"
"I let it slide about the medical accident last time. You deliberately incited cyberbullying. This time, you
played the same trick again. Are you so addicted to taking advantage of others' misfortune to gain
benefits?" Raymond breathed fire, looking very terrifying.
"So, you're here for Bethany?"
"She is my fiancée. How can I stay out of this when you bully her again and again?"
Fiancée?
"Yes, I did send those two tweets. So what? She failed to uphold ethical practices and killed her patient.
I was just speaking for the victim. Is there anything wrong with that?"
"You couldn't be clearer about what you really thought!" Raymond said in a threatening tone, "Now that
the matter has been clarified, as a public figure, you have misguided netizens before. Now you must
send a tweet to apologize to Bethany!"
"You want me to apologize to her?" Aria thought it was ridiculous as she asked, "Why do I have to
apologize to her?"
"If you still want to be in the entertainment industry!" Raymond said with menaces, "Although the TV
play you are filming now is invested by Shepard Pictures, I have plenty of ways to have someone
replace you as the heroine. By then, the relationship between the Shepard family and the Zavala family
will end on a sour note openly. You gotta think straight. The Zavala family has an investment in the
Shepard Group. If I withdraw all the money, the Shepard family will have a hard time. I am willing to
give you this opportunity for the sake of your parents. Don't get on my bad side!"
"Raymond Zavala, are you even going to be at odds with my family for that woman? Our families are
friends for generations."
"If I don't see your apology on Twitter by seven o'clock tonight, you will not only hear the news of the
divestment but also receive a letter from my lawyer for slandering my fiancée!"
With that, Raymond wheeled around and strode out.
Aria smashed all the cosmetics on the dresser to the ground in a fit of pique. At this time, the deputy
director came in and shouted, "Aria, it's time for the next take."
"F*ck that!" Aria flew into a rage and snapped, "Enough. Let's call it a day!"
Aria was the investor's daughter, so even the director dared not refute it at all.
