Chapter 588 I Won’t Back Down
A lant smile flickered across Damien’s stern face. He turned to face Jordyn. “Are you suggesting that you’re unintelligent?”
Jordyn was taken aback, realizing Damien was using her words against her. Her face instantly paled. “I just
couldn’t bear it!”
“Then we have a problem.” Damien chuckled softly. “You can’t bear it? You’re just a student who believes she knows the hidden truth that the entire Lermille medical community is unaware of. Is it really up to a college student like yourself to fight for justice?”
Jordyn’s face turned ashen. She clenched her teeth and wanted to respond, but Cherise walked to the podium, her brows slightly furrowed.
“I rarely bring up the medical incident involving Isaac Roebuck from years ago because he was my first apprentice and once my closest collaborator. His situation devastated me, and I don’t want others to speculate about him. I understand his intentions back then, but he made a mistake.”
Tm not sure who encouraged you to insinuate that I had a role in that incident.” She cast a cold glance at Jordyn. “But the truth is, I wasn’t in Lermille when Isaac independently decided to take charge.”
The investigation unit at that time had a clear record of where I was. I don’t owe anyone an explanation.”
“As for my relationship with Isaac, he did express his feelings for me back then, but I rejected him because I was already married with children.”
“Lastly, the rumor that I bribed him with fifty thousand to keep quiet is completely absurd. He lost his job and couldn’t make ends meet in Lermille anymore. His sick mother at home needed medical care, so I lent him fifty thousand in case of an emergency.”
“And when I gave him fifty thousand back then, it was a loan, not a gift.” Cherise glanced at Jordyn. “You have such a strong sense of justice, Ms. Holden. Since you are so eager to advocate for Isaac, please remind him that he still owes me money.” After that, Cherise gathered her belongings and left.
The cla*sroom fell into a stunned silence. Everyone was looking at Cherise’s departing figure in surprise.
To Cherise’s students, she had always been a gentle and kind lecturer. But today, she completely shattered everyone’s preconceived notions of her.
As it turns out… Dr. Shaw is also a*sertive and impressive!
“Take her to the police station.” Damien glanced at Jordyn and was about to leave.
“I won’t give up! Restrained by two security guards on either side, Jordyn struggled and glared at Damien’s figure. “Cherise orchestrated the incident back then! She manipulated Isaac into performing the surgery and then denied it! I’ll find the records from back then and prove Isaac’s innocence!”
Damien turned and glanced at Jordyn indifferently. He smiled, “Then I wish you luck.” With that, he walked away.
“I won’t give in!” Jordyn continued to struggle. “Isaac Roebuck is a good doctor. He doesn’t deserve to be forgotten like this!”
After leaving the academic building, Cherise got into her car, visibly agitated.
