Chapter 178
With a grim expression, Jerry McGrady said to Penny Smith, “President Smith, this is your company’s construction project. Now
that such a serious accident has happened, you will have to take responsibility for it.”
Penny bit her lips and replied, “I will bear full responsibility for this. I’m prepared to face any consequences, regardless if it is
doing jail time or compensate for the damages.”
When Jerry McGrady saw Nathan Cross, who was standing next to Penny Smith, he softened his tone considerably and said,
“We’re still looking into this matter. We will only know what caused it and who should bear the responsibility when the
investigation is complete.”
Penny nodded as she answered, “I will definitely cooperate with your investigation.”
Jerry McGrady let out a sigh as he said, “We have never expected that such an unfortunate accident would happen at the
construction site. I guess we can only take comfort in the fact that there are no fatalities. However, there are a few badly injured
workers who are still receiving emergency treatment at the hospital. If they do not manage to pull through, the situation will
become much more severe, especially if the death toll rises to more than three. This is what I’m worried most about. I might also
be held accountable for it. President Smith, you may have to be mentally prepared.”
Staying strong, Penny Smith replied, “I’m not afraid to make atonement for my mistake if need be. My biggest wish is that the
injured workers would be able to pull through and recover. Otherwise, it would be too much for their families to bear.”
Nathan and Penny did not rest the entire night, as they were busy assisting in investigations, visiting the injured in the hospital,
as well as comforting their families.
Among the five construction workers who were more severely injured, two of them were already out of immediate danger after
receiving emergency treatment.
However, the remaining three were still in a coma. They were lying in the ICU and could lose their lives at any time.
The next day, Nathan and Penny, who had both pulled an all-nighter, visited the three unconscious victims in the ICU.
Once they reached outside the ICU, enraged family members of the injured workers charged towards Penny, launching an attack
on her.

Those family members were in tears as they called Penny Smith a murderer. They just wanted their healthy sons and husbands
back home.
Nathan Cross held back the incensed families and shouted for them to stop. “This is the ICU. Do you think kicking up a scene
will help in the patients’ recovery? It will just further aggravate their conditions!”
A tearful tall-built man said, “It’s easy for you to say that. Did you know that the doctor has just informed us that my brother may
pass away at any time?”
The rest of the aggrieved family members and relatives agreed dolefully, “He’s right. The doctor has already told us that our
family members are on the brink of death and that we should be mentally prepared for the event.”
Nathan Cross said in a deep voice, “We should not give up as long as there is still hope. I will get the best doctors to save them.”
The same tall-built man replied immediately, “The hospital director has just spoken to us. My brother and the other two injured
workers have blood clots in their skulls. They need to undergo a second operation to remove the blood clots. However, even the
top surgeons in Channing are not confident in performing this surgery. They said that only Dr. Rothschild, who is also known as
the ‘Unmatched Talent’, is capable of performing this type of surgery.”
When Penny Smith heard that Dr. Rothschild would be able to save those three patients who were in the ICU, she saw a
glimmer of hope. However, her eyes darkened a split second later.
Dr. Rothschild was the director of the North Army General Hospital and the elderly professor was already semi-retired. As such,
unless it was the top leaders of the country or soldiers who had committed a heroic deed who required his service, it was almost
impossible to get Dr. Rothschild to personally perform any surgery.
An ordinary man would never be able to ask the favor of Dr. Rothschild.
If everyone in the country needed his medical attention, it would be unrealistic for the doctor to attend to each one of them.
Penny Smith could tell from the hopeful gazes of the crowd that they were relying on her to get Dr. Rothschild here to save their
dying family members.
Although it wasn’t easy for her to be honest with them, the woman decided to be truthful and said, “I know everyone here are
eager to save your family members, that’s also my wish. If the problem can be solved by money, I would gladly help, but it really
is not within my abilities to get Dr. Rothschild to perform the surgery.”

After hearing Penny Smith’s confession, the next-of-kin of the three injured workers were unable to conceal the disappointment
on their faces.
There were even a few who started sobbing and exclaiming that, without Dr. Rothschild, there was not even a single bit of hope
left for their family members.
While Penny Smith was feeling guilty, and the family members were weeping uncontrollably at their miserable plight, Nathan
Cross suddenly spoke.
“You should have said earlier that the problem could be solved by getting Dr. Rothschild to perform the surgery. That’s simple!”
