Chapter 609 I Won’t Falsely Accuse Dr Shaw
Cherise sighed and explained, “Regarding the medical mishap that occurred two years ago, I devised the surgical plan for Isaac. At that time, I was the only doctor with both theoretical and practical experience in this field. Isaac successfully performed the surgery under my guidance.”
“So, when he discussed another patient’s case with me, I immediately advised him to use the previous patient’s surgical plan.”
“Thus, the entire incident was my fault.”
As she confessed, Cherise distinctly heard someone behind her sharply inhaling a breath.
It was Martha. She probably never expected Cherise to admit her mistake to the hospital director.
“Nonsense!” The director furrowed his brow, refusing to believe Cherise’s confession. “You’ve been by my side all these years, and I know you better than anyone. Why would you do such a thing? I refuse to believe it!”
The director dismissed her with a wave of his hand. “You can’t stand seeing Isaac not doing well. This must be why you’re trying to clear his name by taking the blame yourself?”
With a hint of helplessness, Cherise pursed her lips and said, “I’m telling the truth.”
“I refuse to believe it!”
Cherise was the face of Lermille Hospital, and the hospital director would not allow her to ruin herself. “I won’t believe it unless you have proof! Words alone are not enough!”
Cherise pressed her lips together. “Well… there might be proof.”
“Isaac mentioned that he has a recording…” Cherise sighed. “But he refuses to bring it out.”
Martha stood at the doorway and immediately perked up at Cherise’s revelation.
“Ms. Lane, I do have the recording.”
After leaving the hospital director’s office, Martha quickly returned to her own office, locked the door, and called Isaac.
“But…” Isaac sighed softly on the other end. “I won’t give it to you.”
Isaac had always been gentle and humble. He unquestioningly showed kindness to everyone who had ever helped him. Therefore, he found it impossible to expose Martha’s scheme.
He could only faintly sigh and say, “Ms. Lane, please let the matter rest.”
“Everything that happened two years ago is in the past. There’s no need to reopen the case.”
He did not understand why Cherise suddenly confessed to the hospital director and tried to help him clear his name. However, he didn’t want Cherise to be implicated, nor did he want Martha’s lifelong reputation to be ruined.
“Let it all end with me.”
Martha was so furious that she stomped her foot. “Isaac, how could you waste Dr. Shaw’s efforts for you?”
“She said she wanted you to have a better life. That’s why she’s revealed the truth from back then! Do you understand what this means?”
“This means you’ll be able to escape your current predicament soon and return to the job you love!”
Martha grew increasingly agitated. Her voice grew louder as she urgently said, “Isaac, think not only for yourself but also for your mother!”
“She is severely ill and needs money for treatment. Have you forgotten how you and your mother survived these past two years?”
“It’s by relying on my support and the a*sistance of everyone else in the hospital!”
“You’re indebted to so many people and owe so much money. Aren’t you going to strive for a better life?”
“Back then, your mother willingly forwent her treatment to send you to medical school. She did not do this for you to accumulate debts and run a small rural clinic!”
Isaac bit his lip hard and bowed his head.
“Ms. Lane, I understand and am fully aware of what you’re saying.”
“But…”
There was a hint of sorrow and helplessness in the man’s voice. “I won’t falsely accuse Dr. Shaw.”
