Chapter 32 Stealing Natalie’s Man
Diana looked at Rita and said, “Mrs. Bundit, I’m not sure what caused you to leave Quinton Hospital, but now that you’re no longer part of it, why don’t you use those old connections to earn a little something for yourself? Quinton Hospital has chased you out, so why are you worried on their behalf? It’s time to think about yourself for a change.”
Seeing Rita remain silent, Diana decided not to press her further. She noticed that Selena was about to speak, so she gently squeezed her hand and shook her head. Selena had no choice but to keep quiet.
Diana gestured for Selena to drink her coffee while giving Rita time to think.
After a long pause, Rita seemed to have made up her mind. She nodded and said, “I know several people at the hospital. I can make the recommendation, but it’s beyond my control whether you’ll be able to work there as a nurse.”
“That’s fine. You’ll be a great help as the director’s wife.”
“My husband isn’t the director anymore. Please just call me Mrs. Bundit.”
Rita paused then, her mind briefly drifting. Peter was always overlooked, but Elim had helped him rise. Elim was a part of Quinton Hospital, but no one knew Elim’s real identity as they were so secretive.
Rita deeply admired Elim and felt a strong sense of gratitude toward them. Therefore, she couldn’t stand seeing someone impersonate Elim
what she had solid evidence to expose the imposter. Rita had aimed to build a good
Believing relationship with Jessy, who had claimed to be Elim at that time. However, she hadn’t realized how foolish she was being.
Rita wiped her eyes and then wrote down several phone numbers for Diana and Selena. After accepting a money transfer from Diana, she left.
Using the phone number that Rita had provided, Diana and Selena quickly contacted Daniel Moore, the person in charge of managing the nurses at Quinton Hospital.
Diana then utilized her financial powers to secure Selena a nursing position. However, Daniel only gave them a brief tour of the hospital and did not assign any actual work to Selena.
He made it clear that Selena could only remain in the hospital under the guise of a nurse and that she wasn’t allowed to engage in any other activities. If Selena caused any trouble while in the hospital, it would reflect poorly on him, and he would not hesitate to take action.
Selena shouted angrily, “You took our money, and this is how you handle things? You can’t even manage something so simple! Just give us our money back, you worthless fool! How dare you still ask for money? Why don’t you rob someone instead?”

“Selena.” Diana quickly reached out to pull Selena back before apologizing to Daniel, “I’m sorry. My daughter is just a bit anxious. She didn’t mean any harm.”
Daniel shot a cold glance at Selena. He was tempted to throw the money that Diana had just given him back at them. However, he couldn’t bring himself to part with such a large sum.
“I’ve made myself clear. If you two don’t follow the rules and something goes wrong, you’ll be responsible for the consequences,” he stated before turning on his heel and leaving.
The amount of money that Diana had given him was enough for him to live comfortably for several years. Although he had a stable job working at Quinton Hospital, there was little opportunity for advancement in his position.
Since someone was willing to pay, Daniel had decided to accept the money, thinking that he could simply leave before anything was discovered. He dismissed Diana and Selena before leaving to handle his resignation paperwork.
Selena was furious, and she was about to explode with anger when Diana grabbed her hand. We’re in the hospital right now. You need to be mindful of your image. Generally, a distinguished older gentleman wouldn’t appreciate a woman being fierce and aggressive. need to be gentle.”

Selena felt offended. “Are you saying that I’m fierce and aggressive? That guy just took the money without doing any real work. What’s wrong with me saying a few words to him?
“And what about that director’s wife who introduced us to this guy? Why did you give her 200 thousand dollars and then give this man 500 thousand dollars? Why didn’t you just give me the 700 thousand dollars?”
As she spoke, Selena felt a wave of injustice wash over her. Having been sold around since childhood, she had endured countless hardships.
In the past, it didn’t matter if Selena was bullied as she didn’t have her parents‘ support. But now, with her mother right beside her, she felt even more frustrated when she stood up for herself, only to be stopped by Diana.
“If 700 thousand dollars can help you steal Natalie’s man, then it’s worth it,” Diana reassured her quickly when she noticed tears welling up in Selena’s eyes.
“Charles and Marcus are clearly not from an ordinary family. If you can steal Marcus from Natalie, he’ll definitely be worth more than 700 thousand dollars. Sometimes, money is meant to be spent. You can’t catch a wolf without sacrificing any bait.”
Selena bit her lip in frustration. After a while, she managed to get her emotions under control. She said, “I got it.”
“Then, let’s go. We need to find a chance to run into that old man.”
After Diana calmed Selena down, the two of them began to stroll through the inpatient

department of the hospital.
Based on the impressive attire and remarkable presence of Charles and Marcus, Diana was certain that Charles would be staying in a VIP suite. She instructed Selena to search the VIP floor while she contacted Victor to ensure that Natalie wasn’t in the hospital.
Diana and Selena split up the work, determined to steal Marcus from Natalie.
Meanwhile, Natalie was unaware that Diana and Selena had followed Olivia to Balford and were
currently in Quinton Hospital.
After bringing Olivia back to the villa and letting her rest, Natalie went to Connie’s room.
Connie had already discussed the surgery details for Charles with Marcus, and Natalie needed to prepare everything for the operation.
In the days leading up to the surgery, Natalie also planned to improve Charles‘ health. Hence, she entered one of the villa’s secret rooms, which contained various rare and precious medicinal herbs.
Natalie had gone to great lengths to obtain many herbs that were either unavailable in the market or only appeared occasionally in the market. Rows of herbs were neatly arranged in specially crafted wooden boxes.
Natalie selected several items and weighed them precisely before putting them into medicine bags and securely tying them up. Then, she left the secret room.
“Connie, you’ll need to brew the medicine yourself. Once it cools down, ensure that Mr. Holden Senior consumes it.”
“Alright, Dr. Elim.”
“My friend is here, so just call me Nat.”
Connie quickly corrected herself, “Got it, Nat.”
Natalie glanced at her bedroom where Olivia was resting. The soundproofing in her room was exceptional, so she wasn’t worried that Olivia had heard Connie calling her Dr. Elim. However, she knew that she needed to be cautious in the future.
As Connie went off to brew the medicine, Natalie headed to her study. She noticed several missed calls from Victor on her phone.
After sitting down, she called him back. Having severed ties with the Langley family, she knew that Victor was likely contacting her regarding the shares in the Langley Group. However, since she had promised Grace, she would never go back on her word.
