After Having a Dream, I Became Pregnant with a Billionaire's Child-Chapter 227 - 222
Chapter 227: Chapter 222
Principal White still wore a kind and friendly smile as his gentle gaze swept over every examinee present,
"Actually, the interview started long before you stepped into the campus of Capital Medical College.
Everyone might as well recall if you encountered an accident on your way here before entering the school gate?"
The examinees were initially stunned upon hearing this, then they all showed a look of realization.
Indeed, on the way to the interview today, there was a traffic accident right at the school gate, where the scene was chaotic, vehicles congested, the groans of the injured mingling with the noise of the crowd.
At that time, in their rush to attend the crucial interview, everyone was anxious and hasty, without stopping to help with the rescue.
"That accident?"
Senior Sister Long was taken aback upon hearing Principal White’s words, the scene from then immediately flashed in her mind.
She had arrived early near the school to wait for Emily Parker, not expecting to witness the accident right there.
Seeing someone critically injured from excessive blood loss, she rushed forward to aid in the rescue with barely a moment of hesitation.
It wasn’t until the ambulance arrived and she saw the injured safely sent off that she felt relieved. To her, saving lives was a doctor’s instinct and utterly unremarkable, so she hadn’t even mentioned it to Emily Parker.
But Senior Sister Long was unaware that while she was fully engaged in rescuing the injured, Emily Parker had already arrived at the school and was sitting in the office with Principal White and Mr. William, watching her every move through the surveillance camera across the street.
"So, the interview has already been conducted."
Principal White’s voice rang out again, breaking the brief silence,
"Among all the examinees present, only a few called the police, while most went straight into the campus. Only Abigail Long stepped forward to help."
Saying this, Principal White slightly turned and nodded approvingly towards Senior Sister Long.
Then, he continued with a smile,
"If I remember correctly, you once gave a speech as a representative of freshmen at Capital Medical College!
You truly are an outstanding representative of our Capital Medical College."
Upon hearing this, Senior Sister Long’s face turned red with a mix of surprise and joy. Never did she expect that after such a long time, Principal White would still remember her.
Adam Willow caught every word Principal White said, each one pounding his heart like a heavy hammer, filling him with a sense of irony.
Once, he too had stood on the podium at the opening ceremony of Capital Medical College, delivering a speech as the freshman representative, brimming with pride.
Back then, his eyes were full of passion and longing for medicine, carrying noble ideals of saving lives.
Adam’s heart was filled with shame and guilt; all that had consumed his mind at that time was becoming Dr. Sterling’s student.
In retrospect, he realized he had forsaken a doctor’s original aspiration for his own future.
He lowered his head slightly, not daring to meet Principal White’s gaze or look into the eyes of his fellow students, only feeling his face burn.
Emily Parker stood quietly aside, observing everything, sighing inwardly.
The Adam Willow before her was a far cry from the brilliant, talented doctor she remembered.
Once, his focus when holding a scalpel and his persistence in discussing medical challenges were deeply admirable.
But now, his eager pursuit of fame had worn away his original ideals.
The other examinees, realizing the interview had been conducted through special means, showed embarrassment and could no longer justify their prior actions.
They then turned and quickly dispersed, leaving the once crowded place with only a few people remaining.
"This is unfair!"
Sophie Parker shouted loudly,
"The interview was prearranged, who knows if someone used connections to know the interview content in advance!"
Her eyes seemed to spit fire as she glared fiercely at Emily Parker, believing all this was a scheme orchestrated by her to make Abigail Long stand out.
"Little Sophie, stop talking."
Adam Willow’s voice was low, tinged with a bit of exhaustion, his face full of embarrassment. He knew Sophie’s unreasonable outburst was groundless and only further humiliated him.
He gently tugged at Sophie’s sleeve, his eyes pleading, "Let’s go, don’t make a scene anymore."
All he wanted now was to escape this place of endless shame as quickly as possible, not wanting to stay a moment longer.
"Brother Adam, you are Dr. Sterling’s student."
Sophie clung tightly to Adam’s arm.
She firmly believed in the prophetic dream she had, thinking the position meant for Adam was unfairly taken by Abigail Long.
"Little Sophie! Stop spouting nonsense!"
Adam couldn’t bear it anymore, his face darkening like a sky before a storm, as he forcefully shook off her hand, his voice trembling with emotion,
"I should never have trusted your words!"
He was filled with regret; it was over, everything was over.
After speaking, he no longer cared about Sophie, turning to leave.
"Brother Adam, don’t go. You can write to Dr. Sterling, you are his favorite student, there must be some mistake!"
Sophie panicked, watching Adam’s receding figure, feeling a wave of fear. Ignoring the strange looks from others, she hurriedly tried to catch up.
But just as she took a step, a dark figure flashed before her. Mr. William had somehow already stood in front of her, blocking her way like a wall.
"Miss, please watch your words and actions."
Mr. William’s expression was stern,
"You publicly defamed me, I have called the police, and they will arrive shortly."
Sophie was struck as if by lightning upon hearing this, her face turning deathly pale, her eyes widening in shock.
She opened her mouth, trying to defend herself.
"And me, you publicly defamed me too, and I’m suing you."
Emily Parker’s voice drifted over.
As Sophie was overwhelmed with panic, a few uniformed policemen quickly arrived at the scene.
Given Mr. William’s status as a foreign friend and an important investor in the country, the police dared not show any neglect.
After a brief questioning of Mr. William, checking the relevant evidence, personal and material evidence were conclusive—Sophie was clearly guilty of public defamation.
One of the policemen, with a blank expression, walked up to Sophie,
"Ms. Sophie Parker, you are suspected of publicly defaming others, please come with us to the police station to assist in the investigation."
Sophie nearly collapsed to the ground upon hearing this, her legs losing strength.
Under everyone’s gaze, Sophie was publicly arrested just like that.
Emily Parker breathed a sigh of relief, and at that moment, Principal White walked over with a smile,
"Emily, why did you leave your tea halfway?"
