From Ashes of Scandal to His Embrace (Laurinda) novel Chapter 96

“Just tell me what it’ll take to get Adah’s psychiatric record erased. Whatever you want, name it. I’ll make it happen.”

Bagot was ready for the director to make some outrageous demand. But the director didn’t say a word. He just took the file from Bagot’s hand and flipped to the last page.

He set the file back in front of Bagot and tapped his finger on the doctor’s signature at the bottom.

Bagot’s eyes widened the moment he saw the sharp, bold signature. He couldn’t help the way his pupils trembled.

“How is it him? Are you saying Adolphus told you to do this?”

“No. Adolphus didn’t tell us anything. He’s the one who diagnosed Adah. If you want to change her record, you’ll need him to sign off on it himself.”

Bagot’s face turned so dark it was almost scary. He never thought Adolphus would get involved in something like this.

Thinking back, when the Charles family ran into trouble, his father had gone to ask Felix for help. Felix hadn’t even agreed to meet him. Now it made sense. Adolphus must have called Felix ahead of time.

He just couldn’t figure out who Adah had pissed off this time. Why would even Adolphus get involved?

Bagot closed the file, forced a polite smile, and tried to hide his frustration.

“If that’s how it is, I won’t make things harder for you. But about transferring Adah to another hospital…”

“That won’t be an issue. I already asked my assistant to transfer Adah’s records to the hospital in Cabinda, just like you wanted. You can take her any time, all the paperwork’s ready.”

Bagot could no longer hold back his anger. He slammed his fist onto the director’s desk and stood up.

“You really think I won’t do anything just because Adolphus is backing you? You have to push it this far? Not leave any room at all?”
