After a long while, someone finally reacted.
"Her? The hospital director? Is she even an adult?"
Thomas Grant, being the most senior bachelor, quickly recovered from the shock of July Quinn’s stunning looks and questioned.
As soon as Thomas Grant spoke, Wendy Tierney and other members of the Vanguard Corps frowned along with him.
Indeed, in their impression, hospital directors are usually older, at least in their early fifties.
But July Quinn in front of them looks as tender as a delicate flower, seemingly just in her teens.
Could such a person be the hospital director?
What kind of international joke is this!
Yet July Quinn responded with her sweet and crisp voice, "I am an adult, I’m twenty."
Such a response only made Thomas Grant and the others feel a twitch in their hearts.
A twenty-year-old hospital director?
Who would believe that?
Anyway, if anyone wants to believe it, they can, but they don’t.
Thomas Grant said, slightly annoyed, "This is a mission assigned from above, does your hospital regard this as a tourist outing?"
Director Wright quickly tried to smooth things over, "No, no, as soon as our hospital received the arrangement from upper management, we took it very seriously and even held a full meeting..."
But before he could finish, Thomas Grant interrupted.
"Is this the result of your seriousness? Just casually find someone who hasn’t even graduated from college and put them in the director position to fool us?"
Indeed, after learning about July Quinn’s age, Thomas Grant became even angrier.
July Quinn is just twenty, hardly finished growing, certainly hasn’t graduated college.
How could such a person become the hospital director?
It must be because the hospital is worried that someone capable might die during this mission, which would be hard to explain later, and they fear losing talent, so they carelessly found a female college student.
Afraid of being held accountable by the higher-ups, they forcibly put this college student in the director position.
But not long after Thomas Grant finished speaking, July Quinn retorted, "Stop talking nonsense."
Director Wright and Owen Shaw both thought July would fiercely counterattack Thomas Grant, expecting her to embarrass him and even the whole Vanguard Corps, but she simply cleared her throat and said:
"I never went to college!"
The crowd seemed to see a flock of crows flying overhead, leaving countless black dots in the sky.
"Director Quinn, please don’t belittle yourself."
Director Wright felt an inexplicable awkwardness in the atmosphere and quickly urged July Quinn.
Owen Shaw also chimed in quickly: "Exactly, July, don’t put yourself down. They’re not worth it!"
Indeed, in their eyes, July Quinn must’ve received a higher education, otherwise, where would her superb medical skills come from?
The key is, July Quinn’s eloquence and extraordinary demeanor absolutely could not belong to someone without education.
However, amidst their firm beliefs, July Quinn sincerely said, "I’m not lying to you, I really haven’t been to college."
Director Wright & Owen Shaw: "..."
They seemed to have misunderstood something.
And Thomas Grant, Wendy Tierney, and the others looked even more gloomy.
Because Rosewell Hospital thought they could fool them with someone who hadn’t even attended college as the director.
How could they be convinced?
For a moment, they even had a mind to bring Rosewell Hospital to justice.
Maybe seeing through their intentions, July Quinn suddenly urged, "Come on, it’s time to set off, get on the car."
Just now, she also got two boxes of new flavored instant noodles from Owen Shaw, planning to enjoy them on the way back after completing the mission.
Thinking of that intriguing taste, July Quinn could feel the cravings in her stomach growling.
Unexpectedly, Thomas Grant sneered, "Can someone who hasn’t even attended college participate in such a high-risk mission?"
