Between Ruin And Resolve: My Ex-Husband’s Regret

Chapter 1094:

Samuel gave a small nod, his eyes narrowing with warning. “Dr. Landon, you’ve been part of Jazmah’s medical scene long enough to know when to speak—and when to keep quiet.”

That was enough to make Dawson’s pulse spike. The message came through loud and clear.

Behind his composed exterior, panic surged. His back was soaked, and the implications hit him like a thunderclap. Sadie had addressed Patrick as Noah earlier, and now Samuel’s words meant this Patrick couldn’t possibly be just any patient.

He was beginning to realize—Patrick might be the former owner of Wall Group. Without hesitation, Dawson bowed deeply, his tone reverent. “Understood. I assure you, the only patient in our care is Mr. Noel. No one else is involved.”

Samuel looked satisfied. He gave a curt nod and turned to leave.

As the office door shut behind him, Dawson collapsed into his chair like a man whose strings had been cut. Breathing heavily, Dawson struggled to calm the frantic pounding of his heart.

Not long after, his assistant burst into the office, face flushed with outrage. “Dr. Landon, are we really just going to let this go? Ms. Hudson barged in here with her people, kicked open the operating room door, and even injured our guards! How are we supposed to ignore that?”

Frustration simmered in the assistant’s voice, growing more intense by the second. Ultracare Hospital had always held prestige in Jazmah. This—this kind of blatant disrespect—was unheard of.

That was all it took for Dawson to spring out of his chair. His eyes darted toward the office door and windows. After confirming everything was sealed tight, he hurried over to his assistant.

“You must have lost your mind,” he said, keeping his anger on a tight leash as he glanced around nervously.

With a sudden crack of sound, his foot connected with the assistant’s shin. The assistant winced in pain, stumbling back with a grimace, but stayed silent, swallowing the rest of his protests.

Dawson jabbed a finger toward him, voice still low but seething. “Do you even understand who we’re dealing with? Wall Group isn’t some company we can afford to cross. We’re lucky Mr. Noel got out of the operating room with just a scare. If anything serious had happened, we’d all be buried by now. And did you even catch what Ms. Hudson called him? She said Noah! That name alone should’ve made you think twice. We’re talking about secrets that only the most powerful families dare to whisper about.” Dawson trembled—not from anger, but fear.

That woman, Sadie… there was something about the way she looked at people, like she held their fates in her hands and didn’t mind crushing them. Dawson never wanted to feel that kind of helplessness again.

Realization finally dawned on the assistant after Dawson’s outburst. Still gripping his sore shin, he forced a sheepish grin onto his face. “Dr. Landon, you’re absolutely right! I wasn’t thinking clearly—thank you for setting me straight!”

A sharp snort escaped Dawson, though some of the tension in his features began to ease.

He took a moment to adjust his rumpled clothes, standing taller as he slipped back into his usual air of forced authority. “Listen carefully. I want security doubled around Mr. Noel’s room—no excuses, no mistakes. And make sure every staff member is warned. No one is to breathe a word about today. If I catch even a hint of information slipping out, heads will roll.”
