Chapter 663 She Lost Her Mind
“But in reality… the surgery went wrong due to the minor condition I had mentioned earlier.”
“Dr. Roebuck, who performed the surgery, was not informed about my unusual condition, which almost cost me my life on the operating table.”
Sven’s revelation sent shockwaves through the room.
Martha stared at Sven in disbelief. “I…”
“Dr. Lane.” Isaac looked at Ms. Lane with a sorrowful expression. “During lectures, you taught us that a doctor must take responsibility for every patient we treat. So, did you fulfill your responsibility towards Mr. Stein two years ago?”
Martha instinctively stepped back. “I…”
She had dismissed Sven’s concern as a trivial matter.
Therefore, she didn’t give it much thought or inform anyone about the unusual condition.
Despite the mishap in the operating room two years ago, the patient remained unaware and emigrated soon after being discharged…
She believed that no one would discover this and thought she could deceive everyone. However, to her surprise, Cherise and her team managed to bring Sven back.
Confronted by Sven’s scrutiny, Cherise’s watchful gaze, and Isaac’s pained expression, Martha shook her head. “I… I didn’t mean to. I just… I…
She backed away from them. Her fingers anxiously gripped her hair as she repeated like a disturbed woman, “I did it for the hospital… I did it for the hospital… I…”
Her eyes and voice appeared frantic. It seemed as though she had lost her sanity.
“Isaac!” The hospital director frowned but still showed concern for his colleague of over twenty years. “Dr. Lane is unwell. Please take her away.”
Isaac pursed his lips and nodded firmly before walking over to support Martha. “Dr. Lane, let’s go backstage first…”
“No…” Martha gritted her teeth and glared at Isaac. “You’re not the Isaac I know! You’re Cherise’s puppet! Get lost! Leave me alone!”
She forcefully pulled her hand from Isaac’s grasp and retreated from hum
However, she forgot that she was standing on a stage with a five-foot drop between the stage and the floor.
With one misstep, Martha tumbled off the stage and lost consciousness.
The press conference descended into chaos.
Isaac quickly jumped off the stage and carried Martha in his arms. “Dr. Keeples, please continue with the press conference. I’ll take her back to the hospital!”
Dr. Keeples watched Isaac walk away and let out a soft sigh.
After a while, when the reporters below finally quieted down, Mr. Keeples took a deep breath and resumed the press conference.
“It is now evident that Dr. Lane framed Dr. Shaw. Our hospital still needs time to decide on the disciplinary action for Dr. Lane. If there are no further questions…”
“I have one.” A sharp female voice interrupted Dr. Keeples.
Gwenn, dressed in black, gracefully stood up from the back row. “I have a few questions for Dr. Shaw.”
All eyes turned to Gwenn at that moment.
Dr. Keeples looked at her in surprise. “Miss, do you have any questions?”
“Allow me to introduce myself first.” Gwenn smiled at Cherise, but her gaze remained cold.
Cherise narrowed her eyes, fearlessly meeting her gaze.
“I’m Gwenn, a reporter from EuroXY Times.”
