Arranged Marriage To The Princess Of The Red Scorpions
Chapter 318 You Or HimLena decided to take her issue up to the director of the hospital, an older portly man who didn't seem thrilled by her presence.
Who could be blamed for not wanting to be in the presence of someone in such a foul mood? Lena didn't have her gun drawn but she made sure to bring it with her. The man fidgeted as he sat at his desk.
"I don't think that I quite understand what exactly it is that you're asking of me. We do get quite a large donation from him." The man tried to reason with the princess who refused to take a seat, instead staying near the doorway of his room with the door closed.
"More than the amount of money that my family has been giving you for quite some time now? I find that rather hard to believe. Not to mention the fact that you're getting quite a bit of protection from us as well." Had she known about this matter sooner, she wouldn't have chosen to take her family to this hospital. Perhaps though it was something that had been kept from her to avoid this type of situation.
ραпdα nᴏνɐ| сom "No…" The man trailed off, an obvious 'but' hanging at the end of his sentence. One the princess expected him to finish when she raised an eyebrow, folding her arms across her chest as her head tilted slightly.
A knock on the door interrupted their conversation worsening the princess's already bad mood. The direction opened his mouth to say that he was preoccupied but Lena dealt with the issue by giving the door a firm backward kick and requesting whoever was on the other side leave.
When a second knock didn't follow, Lena motioned for the other to finish what he had been about to say.
"They aren't an easy group to just cut off you see. I do greatly appreciate everything that you and your family do for us. You just have to understand that I am stuck in a rather bad position with this whole issue.
"One that I am sure you will be able to figure out how to deal with. I know that you don't know me as well as my father, I can assure you though that I'm not someone you want to get on the bad side of." To make her point, Lena stepped away to come closer to the desk causing the man to shrink back in his chair.
"You see, I am trying to be nice in this matter. That man out there will be dead if you don't cut off your ties with him. Don't put it above me to give you the same fate if you chose to ignore my request. I don't have much patience right now." Her warning came out in a low tone.
"Are we clear on this matter?" The man only nodded his head, too afraid to speak lest he accidentally angers the woman in front of him.
Lena's phone rang but she chose to ignore it. Not quite finished with the situation at hand.
"Good, then I expect that this issue will be taken care of come morning. Any longer and you won't like what will happen next.
"Would it be possible for me to have a little more time? I don't think that this is an issue that we can be dealt with that quickly." The director requested in a meek tone of voice.
"It's up to you whether you want it to be you or him. I won't give you much more time than what I already have. I think that I am being plenty generous enough." Lena stood up from the chair. Putting the gun on the table as she checked her phone.
"This is probably a far more serious issue than you realize. I hope that you deal with it with the correct amount of urgency that it deserves." The director once again looked as though he wanted to protest the time frame that she was making her request to be taken care of within.
Even if he wanted to, he didn't know if it would be something that he could do quickly and be able to provide proof at the same time.
"I will do my best to see what I can do. I hope that you will take no offense however if the issue isn't able to deal with as quickly as you might like it to be." Lena allowed a small cold smile to creep across her lips.
"As I said before, I will hardly be the one who is being positioned by this if you can't finish the request on time. Other people are going to end up suffering far more than me." Seeing that the call wasn't from anyone important, she chose to pocket her phone once more.
Nothing else mattered more to her than the current issue at hand. Anything else could wait so long as it didn't have anything to do with her family.
"If you try to hide or skirt about this issue, it won't take much for me to find out about it." Picking up the gun, Lena slowly placed the safety lock back on, keeping eye contact with the director who paled upon hearing the sound.
Though she would have preferred if he took care of the matter while she was still, his reaction would do for the time being. Fera could be a great motivator to get people to do what she wanted.
She tsked while turning away from the other's desk. Thinking of fear made Samuel's face pass through her mind. That was the one person she'd not been trying to make feel that way during this time. A great job she'd done thus far on preventing that from happening.
"I will leave you to it but if it isn't done by nightfall tomorrow, I don't think that I need to tell you what will be happening."
The director stammered out some kind of affirmative response before the prince left his office slamming the door behind her.
If Samuel wasn't going to be there with her for a while, that meant she would have more freedom to focus on some of the other things that she wanted to do.
She would figure out how to deal with her uncle at another point in time. If the director did what she needed him to do, that problematic man wouldn't be a problem for much longer.
He wouldn't be able to cause any more problems for her family.
