“You’re overthinking. We were never that close, and so many things have happened between us thatthings can’t go back to the way they were,” Renee said softly as she gazed into the distance. In thepast, she might have had feelings for him, but after all these events, they had started to fade.
The only thing she wanted now was for her family to be safe and healthy-that was all that mattered.
After a while, they heard footsteps, and saw Robert walking towards them dressed in casual clothesand carrying a surgery kit.
“Doctor Cromwell, aren’t you going to treat my brother today? Why do you…”
Renee looked at Robert’s attire in confusion. He didn’t look like someone who was about to performsurgery.novelbin
“Miss Everheart, Mr. Baldwin… I’m so sorry, I can’t treat him. The dean has arranged for someone elseto take over, so you both can talk to the new attending doctor… I have something to do at home, so I’llleave now.”
“What?” Renee’s eyes grew wide in shock. “Didn’t you do a good job with the surgery? You saved him,so why are you giving up now?”
Haze frowned and said slowly, “Doctor Cromwell, tell me what’s wrong. I can increase your salary if youwant.”
Robert smiled awkwardly and sighed. “Mr. Baldwin, I’m Old Master Baldwin’s private doctor, so I’ll workfor the Baldwin family. Money’s not the reason I’m going… It’s just that there are powerful peopleinvolved, so I have no say in the matter.”
“Powerful people?” Renee took a step forward, looking concerned. “Who are they? Did someonethreaten you?”
“You’ll know the truth eventually, but I assure you that they’re only trying to help cure your brother. Theirintentions are good, so you don’t have to worry. I’ll take my leave now.” After that, Robert left the ward.
“Haze, what should we do now? Why did Robert leave like that? The medical team will be ruined if heleaves! Quinton is still in the ICU ward… Will he be stuck in a coma forever?” Renee asked Hazeanxiously, her gaze desperate and panicked.
Haze sighed. ’TH ask the dean about it.”
They both made their way to the dean’s office, where he was busy making calls and gathering the mostexceptional doctors he knew to form a professional medical team.
When he saw Haze and Renee, he smiled broadly at them.” Mr. Baldwin, Miss Everheart, you’re here. Iwant to discuss something with you.”
