Chapter 732



Turner feigned outrage and shot Kylee an incredulous glare. “What are you implying?”

Realizing she had crossed a line, Kylee quickly covered her mouth in embarrassment. “I shouldn’t have said that.”

However, the impact of her words darkened the middle-aged woman’s expression. Belinda, a novice physician whose first surgery had almost faltered, and Turner, an esteemed doctor known for an exceptionally high success rate, had now become a stark contrast in the woman’s mind. She couldn’t jeopardize her father’s life easily.

“Dr. Ortiz, please…” she pleaded once again, her voice full of fervor.

Turner sighed heavily, the internal conflict evident on his face. “Very well, I’ll make an exception for you. As long as Dr. Wright consents to allow you to change doctors, I will take on your father’s case.”

The middle-aged woman frowned slightly in frustration as she said, “But… I’ve already talked to Dr. Wright, and she won’t consent to it. What should I do now?” She pressed her lips together tightly and gazed at Turner with hope shimmering in her eyes. “Dr. Ortiz, could you… Could you perhaps talk to Dr. Wright directly?”

Upon hearing this request, Turner couldn’t help but smirk inwardly at the audacity of it all. His face reflected a look of helplessness as he replied carefully, “I’m afraid I can’t do that. If Dr. Wright agrees to the transfer, then I can take over; however, if she doesn’t consent… There’s nothing more I can do.”

The middle-aged woman wanted to say more, but before she could utter another word, Turner said, “I’m sorry; I have other matters demanding my attention. You may leave now.”

After speaking those words with a heavy heart, she turned and departed from his office.

As she opened the door and made her way toward the ward, someone suddenly called out from behind her in a voice filled with urgency, “Wait!”

Startled, the middle-aged woman turned around and recognized it was the female doctor who had just advocated for her in the director’s office. “Doctor, is there anything else?” the middle-aged woman inquired.

It was Kylee who had stopped the woman.

Kylee said, “I can tell you’re eager to transfer your father to Dr. Ortiz’s care. But honestly, this isn’t a simple matter to handle. Think about it. Dr. Ortiz is the department head. If he steps in and takes a patient away from one of his doctors, it’ll cause a lot of gossip and tension. Your best bet is to focus on convincing Dr. Wright. If she agrees to the transfer, everything can be resolved smoothly.”
