Chapter 700

Kylee nodded enthusiastically. “Don’t worry. I will take care of it.”

“Alright, off you go,” Turner said with a dismissive wave of his hand, signaling for Kylee to leave.

In a private room at a quiet restaurant:

“Ms. Wright, I am truly sorry about that,” Darwin said, his voice laden with guilt as he looked at Belinda. After discovering the abrupt change in Toby’s attending physician, Darwin had immediately called Belinda, insisting on treating her to a meal to offer a proper apology.

Dotson’s behavior had been blatantly inappropriate. His actions had embarrassed both Belinda and Darwin.

As these thoughts simmered in his mind, Darwin’s expression darkened further. “Don’t worry, Ms. Wright,” he said, his tone firm with determination. “I promise I’ll make this right. I will call Dotson right now.” His hand moved toward his phone.

Belinda, startled, quickly reached out and stopped him.

“There’s no need for you to do that,” Belinda said calmly, her tone light. “It’s not really a big deal. Mr. Haywood simply wants to ensure his son receives the best possible treatment. From that perspective, his decision is completely understandable.”

Her gaze remained steady as she continued, “After all, the person in question is our department head, and there are so many people waiting for the chance to be treated by him. It’s normal for Mr. Haywood not to want to pass up an opportunity like that.”

Belinda wasn’t truly angry about the situation. If there was any frustration, it stemmed from Turner’s deliberate attempts to undermine her. Dotson’s actions, on the other hand, made perfect sense to her. What annoyed her was Dotson’s subsequent, rather absurd request after asking for the transfer.

Darwin’s jaw tightened as he responded, “Your department head is clearly targeting you. I’ve heard about some of the conflicts between the two of you in the past.”

Belinda nodded slightly, a faint sigh escaping her lips. “Yes, he’s intentionally targeting me. That’s why he’s going after my patients.”

Darwin’s frustration was evident, his expression darkening. Dotson’s actions hadn’t just caused trouble for Belinda—they meant that Dotson had completely disregarded him.

Belinda, noticing Darwin’s anger, smiled gently. “Don’t think about it anymore,” she said, her tone warm. “Let’s just eat.”

Darwin relented, choosing not to pursue the topic further. Since Toby had been transferred to Turner’s care, there was no way he was going to be switched back. So, discussing the matter further wouldn’t accomplish anything.

Overall, their meal was pleasant. After finishing the meal, Belinda and Darwin left the private room together and made their way toward the elevators.

As they walked, hurried footsteps sounded behind them, growing louder with each passing second. Belinda was just about to turn around when a sharp bump on her shoulder sent her stumbling forward.
