Michael stared at Charles in shock and demanded, “You’re the director? You stole my hospital?”
Charles smiled and replied, “How can you call it ‘stealing’? This hospital was never yours to begin with. Athena can give it to whoever she wants.”
Sarah panicked, grabbing Michael’s arm and asking, “Didn’t you say the hospital was already yours? You said nothing could go. wrong in the final two days. What’s going on? I was waiting to become the director’s wife. I already told my classmates—they
all know about it.”
Michael hadn’t figured out what was happening yet, and Sarah’s nagging irritated him. He snapped loudly, “Shut up! How was I supposed to know this would happen? Athena clearly said the hospital was mine. All the paperwork was done.”
Charles’s eyes turned cold, his voice even colder: “She was going to give you the hospital, but you don’t deserve it. So I took it instead.”
Michael flew into a rage and wanted to hit Charles.
But the injuries Charles had inflicted on him earlier still hurt, so he could only leave in bitter resentment.

Sarah ran after him, still demanding to know what had happened. Michael suddenly slapped her hard across the face: “This is all your fault! If you hadn’t kept asking when I could dump Athena, I wouldn’t have been so impatient that I couldn’t even wait those last few days!”
Sarah covered her face, staring at him in disbelief.
She’d known Michael for over ten years, and he’d always pampered and indulged her. Now he was actually hitting her on the street.
Sarah pounded on Michael while screaming, “You actually hit me? You hit me over some cripple?”
Michael was furious and frantic, his mind racing with thoughts of how to salvage his losses.
He’d already been fired from the hospital, and the private hospital he thought he’d secured had gone to someone else.
Hearing Sarah’s shrieks, he found them grating.
Michael shoved Sarah away. He used too much force and knocked her to the ground.
He roared, “How can you even compare yourself to Athena? You’re just a useless crybaby. What do you have that can match her? Even with her mobility issues, she’s still the investment

Too much had happened over the past few days, and Sarah’s emotions were already unstable. Michael’s words completely broke her.
She shouted at breakneck speed, loud enough for all the passersby to hear clearly: “You’re the one living off a woman’s money, deceiving a disabled person! You pretended to care about her to steal her money and manipulate her feelings. You used her while calling her cheap and disgusting behind her back. You lied to me, saying I was your true love, making me wait for you. Now that she’s wised up and won’t be fooled by you anymore, you blame me for dragging you down? What do you think you are? You’re just a loser who only dares to bully disabled people!”
This scene was filmed by passersby and posted online.
Soon, people tracked down the hospital where Michael used to work.
Many complained about Michael’s poor medical skills.
When they learned he’d already been fired, everyone was thrilled, and that hospital’s reputation actually improved considerably.
Michael left Sarah on the street and went back alone to the

Unaware of what was happening online, he was busy sending out resumes and job hunting.
But no hospital was willing to hire him.
It wasn’t until a friend sent him the online news that he realized his reputation was ruined and he’d been blacklisted by major hospitals.
Sarah also became popular because of that video. She seemed to have found a way to make money, specializing in exposing Michael’s misdeeds online, revealing everything about how he deceived disabled people.
In her storytelling, she concealed my identity information while emphasizing her own role as an “innocent victim.”
Sarah transformed from a woman dependent on men into a famous online influencer.
Later, people even submitted stories to Sarah, having her tell first-person accounts of others’ encounters with scumbags.
When Alice reported this to me, I just smiled and said, “She’s quite inspiring, actually.”
I didn’t have time to worry about Michael and Sarah’s affairs.

The exoskeleton project had succeeded, and I was busy helping more people who’d lost their legs to stand again.
I established partnerships with multiple hospitals and drove down the exoskeleton’s price to make it affordable for more people.
