Chapter 893

Chapter 893:
As soon as the question was posed, the entire room fell silent. All eyes shifted to Turner, awaiting his response.
Turner’s expression darkened. He remained silent, his jaw clenched as he worked through his thoughts, trying to formulate a response.
But before he could say a word, the hospital director suddenly interjected, “Dr. Ortiz, go retrieve the patient’s medical record that Dr. Wright gave you.”
At the director’s command, Turner stiffened. Behind him, Kylee, who had been sitting quietly, also tensed.
About half a minute later, Turner finally reacted. He let out a low, humorless chuckle before saying, “I’m afraid that’s not possible. I can’t provide Braden’s medical record.”
His words were met with immediate confusion.
“You can’t? What do you mean you can’t?”
“What’s going on?”
The other doctors started whispering among themselves.
The director frowned, his expression hardening.
“Why is that?”
Turner turned his gaze toward Belinda and, without hesitation, declared, “Because Dr. Wright never gave me Braden’s medical record in the first place.”

The conference room plunged into a stunned silence.
For several beats, no one spoke. Then, the whispers started.
“What is he saying? That she never handed over the record?”
“Oh, come on, isn’t it obvious? It means Dr. Wright lied! She never gave Dr. Ortiz the medical record, so he had no way of knowing the patient had fragile tissue before the surgery!”
“That can’t be right! No competent doctor would withhold such crucial information!”
“Why wouldn’t she? Dr. Ortiz took several of her patients, and maybe she held a grudge! That’s why she did that! She might think that even if she didn’t hand over the record, Dr. Ortiz would’ve still run a full examination before the surgery. He would have found out about the patient’s condition himself. But the problem is, no one expected the patient’s tissue to be that fragile. That’s why the situation spiraled out of control.”
“If this is true, then Dr. Wright’s actions were completely… unethical.” The person had almost called Belinda “malicious” but bit their tongue at the last second.
The confusion in the room deepened. The hospital director’s frown grew more pronounced as he turned his focus to Belinda.
“Dr. Wright, how do you respond to this?”
Belinda’s reaction was one of pure disbelief, as if she had just heard the most ridiculous statement imaginable. Instead of answering the director’s question, she turned to Turner, her tone laced with incredulity.
“I didn’t give you Braden’s medical records?” she asked. She paused for a brief moment before continuing, “Dr. Ortiz, are you absolutely sure about that?”
