Chapter 178 The Unmatched Talent Of Dr Rothschild

With a grim expression, Jerry McGrady said to Penny Smith, "President Smith, this is your company's

construction project. Now that such a serious accident has happened, you will have to take

responsibility for it."

Penny bit her lips and replied, "I will bear full responsibility for this. I'm prepared to face any

consequences, regardless if it is doing jail time or compensate for the damages."

When Jerry McGrady saw Nathan Cross, who was standing next to Penny Smith, he softened his tone

considerably and said, "We're still looking into this matter. We will only know what caused it and who

should bear the responsibility when the investigation is complete."

Penny nodded as she answered, "I will definitely cooperate with your investigation."

Jerry McGrady let out a sigh as he said, "We have never expected that such an unfortunate accident

would happen at the construction site. I guess we can only take comfort in the fact that there are no

fatalities. However, there are a few badly injured workers who are still receiving emergency treatment

at the hospital. If they do not manage to pull through, the situation will become much more severe,

especially if the death toll rises to more than three. This is what I'm worried most about. I might also be

held accountable for it. President Smith, you may have to be mentally prepared."

Staying strong, Penny Smith replied, "I'm not afraid to make atonement for my mistake if need be. My

biggest wish is that the injured workers would be able to pull through and recover. Otherwise, it would

be too much for their families to bear.”

Nathan and Penny did not rest the entire night, as they were busy assisting in investigations, visiting

the injured in the hospital, as well as comforting their families.

Among the five construction workers who were more severely injured, two of them were already out of

immediate danger after receiving emergency treatment.

However, the remaining three were still in a coma. They were lying in the ICU and could lose their lives

at any time.

The next day, Nathan and Penny, who had both pulled an all-nighter, visited the three unconscious

victims in the ICU.

Once they reached outside the ICU, enraged family members of the injured workers charged towards

Penny, launching an attack on her.

Those family members were in tears as they called Penny Smith a murderer. They just wanted their

healthy sons and husbands back home.

Nathan Cross held back the incensed families and shouted forthem to stop. "This is the ICU. Do you

think kicking up a scene will help in the patients' recovery? It will just further aggravate their conditions!"

A tearful tall-built man said, "It's easy for you to say that. Did you know that the doctor has just informed

us that my brother may pass away at any time?"

The rest of the aggrieved family members and relatives agreed dolefully, "He's right. The doctor has

already told us that our family members are on the brink of death and that we should be mentally

prepared for the event."

Nathan Cross said in a deep voice, "We should not give up as long as there is still hope. I will get the

best doctors to save them."

The same tall-built man replied immediately, "The hospital director has just spoken to us. My brother

and the other two injured workers have blood clots in their skulls. They need to undergo a second

operation to remove the blood clots. However, even the top surgeons in Channing are not confident in

performing this surgery. They said that only Dr. Rothschild, who is also known as the 'Unmatched

Talent', is capable of performing this type of surgery."

When Penny Smith heard that Dr. Rothschild would be able to save those three patients who were in

the ICU, she saw a glimmer of hope. However, her eyes darkened a split second later.

Dr. Rothschild was the director of the North Army General Hospital and the elderly professor was

already semi-retired. As such, unless it was the top leaders of the country or soldiers who had

committed a heroic deed who required his service, it was almost impossible to get Dr. Rothschild to Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

personally perform any surgery.

An ordinary man would never be able to ask the favor of Dr. Rothschild.

If everyone in the country needed his medical attention, it would be unrealistic for the doctor to attend

to each one of them.

Penny Smith could tell from the hopeful gazes of the crowd that they were relying on her to get Dr.

Rothschild here to save their dying family members.

Although it wasn't easy for her to be honest with them, the woman decided to be truthful and said, "I

know everyone here are eager to save your family members, that's also my wish. If the problem can be

solved by money, I would gladly help, but it really is not within my abilities to get Dr. Rothschild to

perform the surgery."

After hearing Penny Smith's confession, the next-of-kin of the three injured workers were unable to

conceal the disappointment on their faces.

There were even a few who started sobbing and exclaiming that, without Dr. Rothschild, there was not

even a single bit of hope left for their family members.

While Penny Smith was feeling guilty, and the family members were weeping uncontrollably at their

miserable plight, Nathan Cross suddenly spoke.

"You should have said earlier that the problem could be solved by getting Dr. Rothschild to perform the

surgery. That's simple!"
