Brian had been trying his luck for a while now, but Jennifer never did give him a chance. It was not until
Beau dumped her did she agree to go out for dinner with him. The fact that Jennifer was giving him a
chance excited him, and he gave Kingsley an arrogant look. “Fight me if you’re a man. We’re going one
on one.”
Kingsley looked at him. “You’re challenging me to a fight?” This guy doesn’t look like he lifts. I might kill
him in one blow. “You know who Jude is, right? Jude Lynch?” Kingsley said, “I punched him once, and
he almost died. Are you sure you want to fight me?”
Brian looked horrified. “You’re the guy who beat Mr. Lynch up?”
Jennifer looked excited. She pointed at Alice and screeched, “So you hired this guy to beat Mr. Lynch
up? No wonder you got fired! It’s because you crossed both Mr. Lynch and Dr. Church!” She laughed.

way you can come back to work now that you’ve crossed them!”
By then, the waiter had served all the food, so Alice said coldly, “Are you done yet, Jennifer? We need
to have our dinner now. Leave.”
“What? Embarrassed?” Jennifer looked all smug and pointed at the tea on the table. “Since we used to
be colleagues, why don’t you kneel before me, serve me tea, and tell everyone you’re a slut? I’ll do you
a favor and get you a job at the hospital as a janitor. How about that?” Her grin was so huge that the
makeup on her face was starting to fall. “This is for your own good, Alice. It’s hard to get a job in this
economy. At least a janitor is a stable job. So, what will you do?”
“Feel lucky we’re not in a Western restaurant, or I will cut your artery open.” Alice squinted. “You should
know how good I am with a scalpel.”
“Why you…” Jennifer froze up, and she had no comeback. Just then, she noticed someone walking
past the restaurant, and her eyes shone. She quickly opened the windows and shouted, “Mr. Lynch!
Here! I found the guy who beat you up! He’s right here!”
The man outside was Jude himself. He had just gotten off work and was on his way home. He lived
near the hospital and would pass by the restaurant every day. The man was trudging home, trying to
find a way to get Kingsley to forgive them as per Jeffred’s orders. But what should I do? Should I get
him some gifts? Or should I give him money?
His train of thoughts was broken by Jennifer’s shouts. He looked up and saw her waving at him from
inside the restaurant. Jude did not want to entertain her at first, but when he saw Alice and Kingsley
beside them, the man froze up. His mind raced, and he thought, This is the perfect chance to
apologize! So, he went in through the front door.

Lynch is going to call the cops on him!”
Alice was feeling nervous too, and she said, “We should leave. If Mr. Lynch goes back on his word,
then you’ll have to go to prison.”
“Don’t worry.” Kingsley gave her a reassuring smile. “He doesn’t have the guts to. He won’t do it unless
he wants to lose his job.”
Jude was only a few feet away from them at that moment.
Jennifer and Brian greeted him. “Hello, Mr. Lynch.” Jude might not be their department chief, but
everyone in the hospital knew that he was great friends with Zayne, and Jeffred liked him enough to
probably make him the next deputy director. That was why everyone was always respectful to him.
Even Alice stood up as well. “M-Mr. Lynch…” she said.
