Chapter 308 Suspended for Investigation
“Then I’ll go invite him up. Don’t regret if we do something.”
Cora looked up at Byron and smiled charmingly, revealing her
dimples.
As she said that, she even made a gesture as if she was going
to call Tyler to park the car.
But the man pulled her back into his embrace, causing a
sharp pain in her sprained ankle again.
“Ouch!”
Noticing the abnormality, Byron instantly showed concern in his eyes. “What’s wrong?”
“I sprained my foot,” Cora replied, trying to sound nonchalant.
Byron quickly squatted down to check her ankle, which was
now wrapped in bandages.
He frowned and asked, “What happened?”

“I sprained it while walking. Tyler happened to pass by and
took me to the hospital,” Cora explained.
Byron didn’t say anything else and simply carried her back
home.
Back home, Cora didn’t just sit idle. She started reading books
related to business tactics.
“Why are you reading these?” Byron frowned when he saw her
reading, feeling somewhat displeased.
“I’m learning something about business. Maybe it can help
you in the future. Isn’t it good?” Cora replied without even raising her head.
She didn’t tell Byron about the assessment because Nora had
requested her not to.
But as soon as she finished speaking, Byron snatched the
book from her hand, saying, “Instead of reading these
meaningless books, why not help me with something we can do right now?”
“What are you referring to?”
As Cora raised her head in confusion, Byron suddenly kissed
her…
Chapter 308 Suspended for Investigation Afterward, Cora took two days off due to her injury.
However, the next afternoon, she received a phone call informing her that several photos of her interacting with different men had appeared on the hospital bulletin board, causing extremely negative effects on the hospital’s reputation, and she must immediately return to the hospital.
Reluctantly, Cora hobbled her way to the hospital conference
room.
As she arrived, William and other hospital leaders and executives were all present.
The conference table was covered with photos torn from the bulletin board, many of which showed explicit content.
The faces in the photos indeed belonged to Cora, but the men were either blurred or only captured from the waist down.
Cora hadn’t expressed her opinion yet when William came
over to her.
“What’s wrong with your foot?” He asked.
“It’s sprained. Are you happy to see me like this?” Coral
retorted coldly, not believing for a second that William was
genuinely concerned about her.

“Why would I be happy that you’re injured? Do you think I’m the one who posted those photos?”
“It might not be you, but you could have asked someone else to do it, or perhaps Mrs. Sara Yoris asked someone to do it,” Cora replied with icy words.
Then she looked up to meet the hostile gaze of the hospital leaders, who glanced at the salacious photos from time to time.
“These photos are doctored, and the person in the pictures is not me. Someone fabricated them to slander me,” she stated,
her gaze candid as always.
“How do you prove that these are doctored?” The first to
question her was Elwood.
“My figure is better than the one in the photos.” She didn’t
mean to prove her innocence from this perspective, but because there were no noticeable birthmarks on her body, it was hard to identify. And the person who handled the pictures had excellent skills, making it difficult to find any flaws. The
only relatively straightforward difference was her figure.
“Talk is cheap!” Elwood retorted.
“Do you want me to undress here to prove it?” Cora’s voice
was chilling, and even to herself, she couldn’t believe she
Chapter 308 Suspended for Investigation
could sound so cold.
“Given the situation, the hospital’s job is to investigate the authenticity of the photos, not to summon the innocent victim
here to ask these irrelevant questions.”
Cora’s stern rebuttal silenced Elwood and the others. In fact,
they were indeed curious about how curvaceous her body was since even Byron firmly left Jane, who he had been with
for many years.
However, this was a public occasion, and if things escalated,
they were afraid that Byron might retaliate and jeopardize their future standing in society.
“Dr. Lane, we only asked you to come here to cooperate with
the investigation.”
William added, “I admit that we do have personal grievances, but I promised not to make things difficult for your internship rotations, and this self–destructive act serves no purpose for me. I only hope you can let go of your biases and cooperate with the investigation so that we can resolve this matter as
soon as possible.”
Cora smiled faintly. “After all that you’ve said, I’ll still be suspended for investigation, won’t I?”
