Belinda let out a quiet, knowing sigh. “We've seen glimpses of her true nature before,” she said evenly, “but |
never imagined she'd stoop so low. When she faced real danger, her mask slipped, and what cout was
nothing short of selfish and cruel.”
Bethany let out a resigned sigh. “Absolutely. Honestly, even as an outsider, I feel for Mrs. Wright. | can’t begin to
fathom the kind of pain she must've endured at that time.”
Lucas cast a quick glance toward the corridor and said with purpose, “Let's head over to the Cardiac Surgery
Department.”
Bethany gave a firm nod, her expression sharpening with urgency. “Yes, let's go. Belinda needs to sort out
everything about tomorrow's surgery.”
With that, Lucas, Bethany, and Belinda set off toward the Cardiac Surgery Department, their footsteps brisk and
purposeful.
Carola had just lied to Belinda.

Kylee sat down quietly in the chair beside the bed, her teeth sinking into her lower lip, guilt shadowing her
features.

She stared at Carola for a long moment, her fingers knotting nervously in her lap before she finally spoke, her
voice barely above a whisper. “Mom... I'm sorry.” Her words trembled in the stillness of the room. “I know what |
did today hurt you. I realize my mistake now. But please believe me, | didn’t mean to do it. | was too scared—
terrified, actually—and I just panicked. That's why | acted that way and said those things.”
She leaned forward, desperation woven into her tone. “I'm so sorry, Mom. | know | was wrong. Could you find it
in your heart to forgive me?”
As she spoke, her voice quivered, laced with the tremble of an impending sob. Hearing that, Carola turned her
head, her expression composed and indifferent as she locked eyes with Kylee.
“Didn't mean to do it? Is that what
you're going with?” She let the words
