##Susan immediately became alarmed. She was not a silly woman, so she naturally realized that Victor was trying to take advantage of the situation.

Victor had liked Susan from the first time he saw her.

As the University of Foreign Studies' beauty queen, the youthful and cheerful aura that Susan emitted made her very attractive. Added with her slender figure and extremely delicate features, many men fell for her.

Victor was not the first man who wanted Susan, and he would definitely not be the last man.

Susan's expression was cold, and she did not know how she should answer for a time.

She was naturally not willing to accept his terms. However, if she dared to say "No", Mr. Redfern could die at any minute. She could not be impulsive. She had to remain calm.

"What do you think? Are you willing, Susan?

"I'm actually only ten years older than you, so there won't be a generation gap between us. Besides, my job and income are quite good. If you marry me, you won't suffer any loss.

"I promise you that I'll definitely treat you right my entire life."

Susan clenched her fists and suppressed her anger.

Tap! Tap!

Janice tapped her finger on the desk and spoke indifferently. "There seem to be some problems in this list."

Victor frowned. "What do you mean?"

Janice calmly said, "The list you've issued has many drugs, and they are extremely common drugs. They cost thirty-five dollars per box, but the price you've labeled here is about six hundred dollars per box. Also, this hospital bed costs one hundred and twenty thousand dollars a month? Are you joking? Is this a ward or a five-star presidential suite?

"Most important of all is the prescription. Have you seen it? If the patient consumes the medication according to the dosage you've prescribed, he'd be full from ingesting medication alone, right? Does the medication constitute his proper meals?

"Dr. Payne, the authenticity of your prescription is really doubtful."

Her words made Victor knit his brows.

However, Susan had finally wrapped her head around it. She had been pampered since she was little, so she had never read the prescription and bought any medication before. She did not know anything about it, so she would believe whatever Victor said.

Susan then glared at Victor. "Are you purposely scamming me?"

Victor chuckled. "Susan, what are you saying? I'm a professional doctor. Would I simply prescribe you anything? Do you believe in a professional doctor like me who has at least ten years of experience or your friend who's only lying?"

Susan hesitated.

Indeed, Janice was just a soldier. How much did she understand about medication? But she also could not completely trust a wicked person such as Victor.

Victor shrugged. "You can't decide? All right, I'll give the Food and Drug Administration a call and let them send someone to look into this. You believe the people from the FDA, right?"

Susan nodded. "Yeah."

Victor immediately called the FDA in front of them and asked the FDA to send a few staff members over for verification. During this time, his expression was calm, and he did not look nervous at all.

His demeanor attracted Janice's attention.

Janice was very sure that there was a problem with the prices of the medication on the list. Yet, Victor had the guts to call the FDA, and he did not seem scared in the slightest. Something had to be wrong.

Janice narrowed her eyes before she took her phone out and sent Samson a text message. [Send a notice to the deputy director of the FDA under my name. Ask him to bring his people to Third Southland General Hospital and carry out an investigation.]

...

The fifth floor of the FDA office.

A junior staff member ran to Mr. Reid, smiled, and said, "Mr. Reid, someone tried to create a fuss in front of the young master. Could you make some arrangements?"

Mr. Reid nodded. "Just let Hansen and Klein go over. Make it a quick trip."

"Okay!"

When they were ready to leave, the door of the office was opened. Timothy Payne, the deputy director of FDA walked out.
