Chapter 1098



To their surprise, the footage documented the entire process of Belinda’s blood being drawn and retested under strict supervision.

The final result? Negative.

The revelation spread like wildfire throughout the hospital, sparking heated discussions among doctors and nurses alike.

“I can’t believe Dr. Alvarado accepted a bribe to falsify test results! That’s beyond unethical!”

“I know, right? Changing a negative result to positive? If Dr. Wright had been emotionally fragile, this could have pushed her over the edge! She could have taken her own life out of despair!”

“Unbelievable! Dr. Alvarado always seemed so kind and approachable. I didn’t know he was capable of such a despicable act before!”

The outrage was unanimous. Everyone condemned Diego’s actions.

With the video proof available, no one doubted the legitimacy of Belinda’s current test results.

A wave of sympathy for Belinda spread through the hospital. She had already endured the fear of occupational exposure, only to be further tormented by a fabricated diagnosis.

If not for the timely revelation of the truth, the consequences could have been far worse.

Now that Belinda was confirmed to be uninfected, she could return to the Cardiac Surgery Department and officially resume work tomorrow.

That evening, Belinda chose not to return home. Instead, she stayed by Kenia’s bedside, keeping watch over her.

As she adjusted Kenia’s blanket, she shared the news. “The person responsible for tampering with my test results has been caught,” she said to Kenia.

Kenia’s expression darkened with anger. “Some people are truly vile!”

Belinda nodded, her own frustration evident.

After chatting with Kenia for a while, she encouraged her to get some rest.

Kenia soon drifted into a deep sleep.

But for Belinda, sleep was elusive. She tossed and turned for hours, unable to find rest.

Perhaps it was because, for the past several nights, she had fallen asleep in Lucas’ arms.

Now, without his warmth beside her, she couldn’t seem to drift off.

The next morning, Belinda rose early, preparing for the day ahead. Once Sarai arrived to take care of Kenia, Belinda left the ward and made her way to the Cardiac Surgery Department.

As Belinda strolled from the Neurosurgery Department to the Cardiac Surgery Department, she was warmly greeted by colleagues along the way.

Upon reaching the Cardiac Surgery Department, Belinda stepped into the locker room to change into her white coat before heading to the office.

Several doctors and nurses crossed her path, each offering a warm greeting.

As she entered the doctors’ office, a brief hush fell over the room. Then, the people in the office all rose to their feet in unison, their faces lighting up with smiles, and eagerly made their way toward her.

“Dr. Wright, you’re finally back! We’ve all missed you so much!” one of them exclaimed.

“Exactly! Even the families of your patients have been asking about you regularly. They were also concerned about you!”
