After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 226 - 221 The Sky is Falling on the Parker Family

Chapter 226: Chapter 221 The Sky is Falling on the Parker Family

All eyes were focused on the phone screen that Sophie Parker held high, where Emily Parker was seen talking intimately with a distinguished foreign gentleman.

Each frame of the video was like a sharp knife, piercing straight into Carlos’s heart.

The originally relaxed expression on his face instantly tightened into a frown as the scene at the hospital that day flashed rapidly through his mind.

He knew the video was real.

"Everyone!"

Sophie Parker raised her voice, sharp and laced with a hint of undisguised triumph, her gaze fixed intently on Emily Parker,

"This gentleman, Mr. William, is the head of the Sterling Research Institute and the famous partner of Dr. Sterling himself.

Emily Parker has long been colluding with him.

Not only that, it was through her inappropriate relationship with Mr. William that Abigail Long became Dr. Sterling’s student.

This conduct is utterly despicable and has severely compromised the fairness of this year’s admissions at Capital Medical College!"

Emotionally charged, Sophie Parker’s gaze was filled with provocation as she glared at Emily Parker.

These words ignited the already tense nerves of the examinees, who were stressed by the admissions interviews, and their eyes all turned to Emily Parker.

At this moment, Emily Parker stood in the crowd, silent.

Just then, Doctor Reed cleared his throat,

"I know Mr. William, and I can confirm that the person in the video is indeed him."

As a prominent figure in the domestic medical field with high academic prestige, Doctor Reed’s words were like a bomb dropped into the turbulent waters, causing immense waves.

The candidates, already upset by the lack of interviews, were now utterly out of control.

One examinee’s face was flushed with anger, waving his arms furiously,

"I knew it! How could they have chosen people this early without the interviews being conducted? There must be something fishy going on!"

Another examinee, wearing glasses, chimed in,

"This Abigail Long has no reputation in the domestic medical field and hasn’t published any significant academic work, so why was she specially admitted?"

"Sure, it’s all about connections. This world is just so unfair!"

A female examinee shouted shrilly.

The crowd was rapidly getting more agitated, their anger spreading through the air like a raging fire, threatening to engulf Emily Parker and Abigail Long at the center.

Their words, sharp and piercing, were like knives thrust directly at Senior Sister Long.

The excited crowd surged toward Emily Parker and Senior Sister Long like a torrential flood, some losing control and reaching out violently as if to push them.

The staff members on the outside were anxious to shout them down, but their voices were immediately drowned out in the chaotic hustle and bustle, much like the buzz of mosquitoes.

Just as the crowd was about to converge on Emily Parker, at the last critical moment, a strong and firm arm encased her tightly into an embrace.

Emily Parker instinctively looked up and met Carlos’s deep eyes.

Carlos looked up, his gaze was icy and filled with warning. At almost the same instant, he gave Oliver Ross a signal with his eyes.

Oliver Ross, along with several burly bodyguards, charged into the chaotic crowd like sharp blades.

The bodyguards, agile and swift, quickly formed a protective circle around Emily Parker and Senior Sister Long, forcefully pushing back the approaching crowd, and the situation gradually came under control.

"Quiet! Everyone, calm down!"

Just as the situation was getting even more out of control and nearly descended into total chaos, the sound of hurried footsteps approached from the distance.

Everyone turned towards the sound to see a dignified-looking elder with graying hair, walking quickly side by side with Mr. William.

"Principal!"

Several staff members, upon seeing the elder, immediately relaxed their tense nerves and breathed a long sigh of relief.

When Mr. William’s gaze swept over the chaotic scene and especially lingered on the controversial video on Sophie Parker’s phone screen, even the usually polished and poised Mr. William couldn’t help but mutter a curse under his breath.

"Slander! This is pure, blatant slander!"

Mr. William’s eyes bulged with rage, glaring at Sophie Parker.

"Mr. William, there’s no use denying it!"

Sophie Parker didn’t back down from Mr. William’s rage; instead, she grew more triumphant, lifting her chin with a look full of provocation,

"If it weren’t for your inappropriate relationship with Emily Parker, how could Abigail Long become Dr. Sterling’s student?

We want to see Dr. Sterling, and he must give us an explanation!"

She glanced around, trying to find Dr. Sterling in the crowd.

The examinees were still highly agitated, their faces full of anger and eyes brimming with dissatisfaction.

The elder swept his gaze slowly over the crowd, his eyes deep and sharp as if he could see through everything.

Carlos felt, perhaps wrongly, that the elder’s gaze stayed on him a little longer.

The elder sighed lightly, showing a helpless smile, then slowly raised his hand and waved gently.

"It’s Principal White, Scholar White from Capital Medical College!"

Someone in the crowd recognized the kindly elder, knowing that Principal White was a distinguished figure in the medical community, on par with Doctor Reed.

Seeing him, the examinees’ emotions calmed slightly, thinking that with Principal White’s esteemed status, he should be able to provide a fair and just explanation to everyone.

"Everyone, you’ve misunderstood.

The interviews have already been conducted earlier."

Principal White stepped into the center of the crowd, explaining solemnly.

"Impossible!"

Sophie Parker nearly jumped up immediately, her voice sharp and grating,

"We’ve all been waiting here the whole time. When did the interviews happen?

Could they have been conducted in secret without us knowing?"

Other examinees also voiced their agreement.

Beside her, Adam Willow watched Sophie Parker’s aggressive stance, his brows furrowing slightly, a trace of worry flashing in his eyes.

A vague sense of unease crept into his heart.

Given Principal White’s esteemed status in the medical community, it was unlikely he would lie about something so crucial.

Thinking this, Adam Willow couldn’t help but feel confused. Could it be that the interviews had really taken place without them realizing it?

Abigail Long was equally perplexed; she and the other examinees had entered together, waiting outside together, without having gone through any interview.

Only Emily Parker, standing next to her, discreetly winked at Principal White, and the two exchanged a knowing glance.
