Chapter 662 You’re The Most Absurd
No one expected the press conference to expose the internal power struggle at Lermille Hospital, revealing twists and turns that rivaled a prime-time TV drama.
What was revealed was so bizarre that even a novelist would not dare to include it in their stories.
People whispered among themselves. “Who would have thought that Dr. Lane, with her poised demeanor, is someone who cannot tolerate newcomers?”
“That’s not true. It’s not because she has an issue with newcomers. She can’t stand those who aren’t under her control!”
“It’s terrifying… This is a hospital! Doctors have a duty to save lives. If the doctors engage in such conflicts in the hospital, the patients will suffer…”
The crowd continued to discuss amongst themselves.
Martha gritted her teeth. “I’m doing this for Isaac’s benefit and the good of the hospital!”
Now that the truth had been exposed, she could no longer maintain the facade. She shrieked hysterically. Tears flowed down her face. “Cherise is not as nice as you people think! She has trapped my most accomplished student, Isaac, in her web! She knew I didn’t like her, so she used this method to force me to accept her! In truth, she is the most malicious, the most despicable person in this hospital!”
Cherise merely laughed. “Dr. Lane, you might be overthinking things. I joined Lermille Hospital to be a good doctor, to treat patients properly, and to research complex diseases. I honestly don’t care whether you approve of me or not. Your feelings for me have no impact. on my work.”
Those words reignited the fury in Martha’s eyes, “If you hadn’t manipulated Isaac, why would he heed your every word? He’s my student. He should be following my instructions! I told him to perform the surgery according to the initial plan. He should have obeyed me!”
“But look at what happened. He insisted on bringing you in, claiming you’re the expert. He said he didn’t dare to operate without your approval!”
“Even though Dr. Carlin and I confirmed the feasibility of the surgical plan, he refused to proceed with the surgery without you!”
She pointed at Cherise angrily. “You have a way of manipulating people’s hearts!”
“A schemer like you claims not to care what others think about you. How absurd!”
Martha had always appeared poised no matter the situation. Regardless of the duration of the surgeries or meetings, or how much others sweated, she maintained her elegance. Moreover, her makeup was untouched, and her expression was the most amiable.
But now, her hair was unkempt. Her eyes were filled with hatred and malice. She looked like a savage as she pointed at Cherise.
Isaac instinctively recoiled. This was not the mentor he remembered. His mentor was never
like this.
“It’s you who are the most absurd here!” A stern male voice sounded after Martha finished speaking.
Sitting next to Damien, Sven stood up and stared at Martha with a cold and piercing gaze. “Do you recognize me?”
Martha was startled and instinctively looked in the direction of the voice.
Through her disheveled strands, she saw a slender man. He looked vaguely familiar, but she could not recall where she had seen him.
“I’m Sven Stein, the patient involved in the medical mishap two years ago.”
Sven sneered at Martha. “During the surgery, I truly had no idea that such an accident had occurred on the operating table.”
“A few days ago, I saw the true report of my surgery from two years ago.”
The man narrowed his eyes, “I recall when I first visited the hospital, I asked Ms. Lane, who was then an authoritative expert, whether my minor health issue would affect the surgery.
“At that time, you assured me there was no problem, and your plan was foolproof.”
