I Stopped Waiting and Started Loving novel Chapter 40

Her pampered, delicate strength was absolutely no match for Bonnie.

Bonnie grabbed Seraphina's incoming wrist, her fingers pressing precisely into a painful nerve point.

Seraphina cried out in agony as half her body instantly went numb.

Bonnie forcefully shoved her arm away.

Seraphina stumbled two steps backward, crashing awkwardly against the doorframe of the clinic with a dull thud.

"What's the point of talking behind my back? If you have the guts, say it right to my face!"

Bonnie took a step forward, looming over her with a freezing glare, her voice as cold as a late spring frost.

"Me, ruining your relationship with Parrish?"

Bonnie let out a cold scoff, her eyes full of disdain. "If you want to treat the garbage I threw away like a treasure, then keep a tighter leash on it! If you're so scared of someone stealing him, I'm not the one you should be guarding against—it's the heiress of the Xavier family. After all, she is Mr. York's legitimate fiancé for their marriage alliance."

As soon as she said this, the surrounding doctors and nurses gasped collectively.

A marriage alliance? The Xavier family heiress?

This was a massive revelation. The way everyone looked at Seraphina instantly shifted.

Bonnie didn't stop. Her words fired off like a machine gun, pummeling Seraphina without giving her an inch to fight back.

"Saying I stole your credit? You know exactly who swooped in to take credit for the final two needles. God is watching. Don't you feel guilty holding onto something you stole? Do you even sleep at night?"

"Saying I seduced the director? Do you think everyone is exactly like you? Just because you used Parrish's connections to get a job here, you can't stand seeing someone else earn their place through hard work?"

"Every colleague in this clinic is right here. So listen closely. Either you apologize to me in front of everyone right now and take back your filthy lies, or I'll see you in court. Slander, defamation, and malicious framing are more than enough to get you permanently expelled from the medical field!"

The entire room was in shock.

Who could have imagined that Bonnie, who hadn't made a peep after being targeted all afternoon, would be this fierce when pushed to the edge?

At the same time.

A few minutes prior, Director Sterling Lennox had just stepped out of the elevator.

He had intended to find Dr. Zimmerman at the clinic, but instead stumbled right into this spectacular show.

Sterling raised an eyebrow, stopping at the corner of the hallway.

He crossed his arms and leaned casually against the wall, a spark of amusement in his eyes as he watched the drama unfold.

This girl had a sharp tongue and absolutely refused to take a loss.

Seraphina finally recovered from her extreme shock and pain.

Terrified that her public image was completely destroyed, she began screaming in absolute panic.
