Fire Chief vs. Surgeon: A Tale of Relentless Pursuit
Chapter 585 My Husband Might Be Quite Worried About Me
CHAPTER 585: CHAPTER 585 MY HUSBAND MIGHT BE QUITE WORRIED ABOUT ME
Upon those words, everyone fell silent for a moment.
Eventually, Dr. Jia sighed and said,
"I hope so."
As for whether or not it was unjust, it was clear to see.
How often are hearts just this cold?
"Alright, alright, let’s go inside."
What will the outcome be? Who knows now?
So, better not to overthink it.
It was also almost three o’clock. Led by the police officers, the group entered the large conference room, where the relatives of the little girl were already seated.
Upon seeing Lu Jing and her party enter, they immediately became agitated:
"The murderers, it’s you!"
"Compensate our child!"
"A life for a life!"
"Exactly, exactly!"
At the forefront, Dr. Jia’s face turned dark in an instant, his fists clenched tightly.
Had he not been desperately containing his rage, he would have exploded.
Why should these people be able to make accusations so freely?
It was truly unfair.
Even Lu Jing was deeply frowning at this moment.
This kind of scene was indeed new to her; what she had seen in the past was minor trouble.
Luckily, there were police officers on site, or else there might have been a fight, right?
"Everyone, take your seats. If you cause further disturbance, you’ll be asked to leave. Let’s remain calm and then we can talk."
With these instructions, the relatives finally quieted down.
At this moment, the door to the conference room opened, and Officer Zhu, along with Old Huo and Old Hu, entered.
Seeing Old Hu and Old Huo, the relatives began to question:
"Officer, who are these two?"
Lao Zhu cleared his throat before saying,
"Oh, these two are lawyers from XX Law Firm."
Lawyers?
They probably thought they were hired by the hospital.
As a result, not two minutes later, another group of people entered, and the relatives were taken aback.
"Officer, who are they?"
Some people began to whisper quietly:
"Why are there so many of them?"
"How would I know? We’re in the right anyway; no matter how many people they have, we’re not afraid."
"But, we don’t have lawyers!"
Everyone knew lawyers were formidable; they could make black appear white.
The person was visibly upset but powerless:
"Whatever, someone died in their hospital; that’s a fact!"
Lu Jing and her colleagues recognized them; these people were likely the hospital’s legal counsel.
Besides, the lawyers on both sides knew each other.
Though they were not particularly close, they were aware of one another.
After all, they were all in the legal profession, in the same locality, so knowing each other was quite normal.
"Huo Lv and Mr. Hu are also here?"
The two nodded their heads:
"Yes, indeed."
"Then may I ask whom Huo Lv and Mr. Hu are defending this time?"
It wouldn’t be the relatives they were representing, would it?
That didn’t seem likely at all!
Besides, both were from the same circle and probably knew what the other was like.
The relatives could guess even with their toes that they were after a huge compensation, but Huo Lv and Mr. Hu were not frivolous people; how could they possibly help them for no reason?
Moreover, having both lawyers present would not come cheap!
Old Huo and Old Hu silently shared a look and then Old Hu said:
"We were hired by Mr. Jiang and naturally are here specifically to defend Mrs. Jiang."
Mr. Jiang? Mrs. Jiang?
*Cough, cough.*
Hearing this introduction, Lu Jing, the person involved, felt quite uncomfortable, well, just... that.
She then took the initiative to explain:
"That, Mr. Jiang is my husband!"
Then everyone at the scene understood.
Hisss!
Her colleagues were probably the most shocked:
"Doctor Lu, your husband...?"
Lu Jing exhaled deeply:
"Yes, my husband is probably a bit worried about me."
