CHAPTER 285: CHAPTER 285: A TROUBLED TIME

Miles Grant’s father continued to say, "The company has already been losing money every month. We finally secured this cooperation deal. The company’s financial issues were starting to improve, but suddenly facing this double compensation, we can’t come up with such a huge payout in the short term."

Suddenly, Miles Grant was at a loss, thinking the company could just continue operating at a loss for about a month. But he didn’t expect this problem to be even harder to solve.

Miles Grant’s father was so worried that he was about to faint.

Suddenly, both of them fell silent on the phone.

Miles Grant’s father said, "The company is already facing significant problems, and there is no better way to solve them."

Miles Grant suddenly felt a bit troubled, as his father hadn’t spoken to him this way in a long time. For him to speak so humbly, there must be something he needed help with, and it must be something very difficult.

Miles Grant didn’t speak, just quietly listening to what brilliant solution his father might have.

Miles Grant’s father, seeing his son didn’t object, continued, "I remember you are very close with Landon Lawson. Can you ask him to help resolve this issue this time? Once the company resumes operation, the amount plus interest will definitely be repaid in full."

It was as if Miles Grant’s bottom line had been touched. Despite the dire household troubles, he couldn’t possibly humble himself to that degree. If outsiders found out, where would he keep his face?

Not to mention, he had already fallen out with Landon Lawson and said he wouldn’t need the Lawson Family’s help. How could Miles still approach Landon?

Had his father really considered his feelings? This feeling was really wearing him down.

Miles Grant suddenly became angry and said, "No way, you shouldn’t even think about it. When there’s a problem at home, how can we expect someone else to help? Besides, with so many issues this time, we can’t drag Lawson Group into the deep water. Moreover, I have already told Landon before that in future affairs of the Quinn Family, he shouldn’t interfere anymore, so don’t expect it this time either."

Miles Grant’s father was also angry: "Now that the company is facing such problems, why can’t we ask them for help? Haven’t you always been close friends? At crucial moments, can’t friends have each other’s back? With your good relationship, what’s the harm in asking for a favor? You brat, can’t you do a bit more for the family? Do we still mean anything to you in your heart?"

Miles Grant also felt very angry, finding his father’s behavior unreasonable, "This has nothing to do with friendship; it’s about pride. If I ask for this money today, how will I carry on in the future? Even if we can ask Lawson Group for help to fill this financial hole this time, what about the next time?"

Miles Grant’s father always felt Miles didn’t take the company seriously and never considered family matters important, "I’m just asking you to lend some money; why can’t you swallow your pride? I am not asking you not to pay back either, and it will be returned with principal and interest. What’s impossible about that? Now that the family is already in this situation, I’ve thought of every way possible. If there were any other options, I wouldn’t ask you to return home to solve this."

After hearing this, Miles Grant did not feel understanding but increasingly infuriated, "What? Is everyone just a tool for you? Are you asking me to come back just to ask my friend for money?"

Miles Grant’s father became even more furious when he heard his son say that. His goodwill was turned into a mess by his son, "You ungrateful child. How dare you speak to your father like that? Haven’t I been running the company so well all because of you? Didn’t you fail to understand me when I went into medicine?"

Miles Grant only felt a wave of irritation in his heart.

"Get Miles Grant out here!"

"Yeah, stop covering for him; get him out here."

"He killed my family; I will make him pay for it with his life."

Miles Grant was already feeling very irritated and suddenly heard shouting from outside the hospital, all calling his name, and sensed something was off.

Casually, he told his father on the phone, "There’s something happening in the hospital; I have to take care of it right away. Anyway, don’t even think about borrowing money; as for how to run the company, you should find the root problem. Otherwise, even borrowing money won’t solve anything, and there will always be a next time."

After giving his father this ultimatum, Miles Grant hurriedly hung up the phone and never wanted to hear anything his father had to say to him again.

Because he knew it would definitely be a tirade.

With all the recent incidents happening one after another, Miles Grant increasingly felt a very bad premonition.

Emerging from the locker room, Miles Grant had just opened the door and found the corridor packed with people of all ages.

Nearby, many patients and their families were watching.

Miles Grant couldn’t quite make sense of what was going on, just that many doctors and nurses were stopping this group from entering the locker room, and even security guards were involved.

Things got even more chaotic after Miles Grant came out.

A young nurse noticed Miles Grant had come out and pushed him back.

With a very anxious look, the young nurse said, "Dr. Grant, now is not the time to come out; just stay in the locker room."

Miles Grant had no idea what was happening, just knowing there was trouble outside, and asked with a puzzled look, "What’s going on? What’s happening out there?"

The young nurse felt very embarrassed, unsure if she should say anything. After all, this matter did involve Miles Grant and seemed quite uneasy and troubled.

Of course, Miles Grant wasn’t foolish; he could see things clearly and directly said, "Just say what it is; looking at this situation, it can’t be anything good. And I’ve already heard my name; do I still have to go out and ask, anyway, I’ll know about it sooner or later."

Hearing this, the young nurse felt it was inappropriate to hesitate any further, "Just when the director was about to perform surgery in the operating room earlier, we heard a commotion from outside. Now the director is in surgery and can’t come out."
