When other doctors saw the notice of Belindaâs punishment, they exchanged glances, their faces filled with mixed emotions.
One doctor couldnât hold back, muttering, âYes, Dr. Wright broke the rules by not having breakfast at the hospital cafeteria before her surgery, but isnât this punishment a bit too harsh?â
âThatâs right! I heard the patient was in critical condition, and Belinda was already dealing with an allergic reaction. Despite everything, she stayed calm, powered through her symptoms, and managed to finish the surgery successfully. It wasnât until after the operation that she finally collapsed in the operating room!â
âShouldnât such professionalism and dedication be praised? Yet, the Medical Section didnât even acknowledge it. Isnât that a bit unjust?â
âActually⦠Iâve caught wind of a few rumors about this,â a nurse suddenly muttered in a low voice, glancing around.
When everyone heard this, the other doctors immediately turned their attention to the nurse, their faces lit up with curiosity.
âDr. Patel from the Medical Section and Dr. Ortiz from the Cardiac Surgery Department share a close bond even beyond the hospital walls,â the nurse wasted no time and dove straight into sharing the intriguing gossip she had overheard.
âAh, so thatâs the story!â
âWell, now it all adds up! No wonder Belinda faced such a harsh punishment. Dr. Patel is doing this for Dr. Ortiz.â
G a lno v els .com is packed with thrilling adventures âDoesnât this seem like deliberate targeting?â
âExactly! This is so unjust!â someone whispered under their breath.
The other doctors shared the same sentiment.
Yet, no one dared to voice their thoughts to the people involved.
Instead, they kept their opinions to themselves, gossiping only in private.
After all, the Medical Section had direct authority over their work.
And for someone like Branson, it would be effortlessly simple for him to make their lives miserable.
âIâm going back to my department,â someone said.
âAh, youâre right! I should clock out as well!â
With that, everyone dispersed one by one.
Meanwhile, word of Belindaâs punishment spread like wildfire, quickly becoming the hottest topic of conversation across the hospital.
Inside Belindaâs hospital room, Holley arrived, carrying a freshly prepared lunch for Belinda.
âBelinda, I noticed the punishment notice about you posted on the hospitalâs bulletin board. Whatâs happening? Didnât you complete the surgery successfully despite everything? Why are they punishing you when they should be applauding your efforts?â
Holley furrowed her brow, worry clearly written across her face as she turned to Belinda with a questioning look.
