Chapter 821
After selecting an assignment, the instructors would visit the patient beforehand to confirm their condition. As the supervising instructor, Queena had the correct diagnosis on hand.
Sensing something was wrong, she immediately pulled out the reference sheet and criticized them. “You’ve all disappointed me today. Out of five students, only Yves got it right!”
“Especially you, Anastasia. Weren’t you first in the entrance exam? If this is the level of our top student, you’ll be a disgrace to the Global Harmony Medical Institute!”
With that, she prepared to leave with the students.
But Marlon stopped them. “Wait, I think there’s been a mistake.”
“If you were examining my wife, that diagnosis would be correct. But the person you just saw wasn’t her.”
Queena’s heart plummeted at his words.
Yves’s triumphant expression froze on his face.
“…Mr. Clark, what did you say?”
Marlon looked surprised. “My wife was the original patient, yes. But the instructors felt her condition was too complex for new students, so we switched. The patient you just examined was my housekeeper. Weren’t you informed of this?”
As he spoke, the bed curtains were pulled back, and the patient got up. It was indeed the Clark family’s housekeeper, not Mrs. Clark!
Queena and Yves were completely dumbfounded.
Anastasia let out a soft, mocking laugh.
“So, this young lady, Anastasia, and the other students were correct. As for Yves—” Marlon frowned. “If I heard correctly, you wrote down my wife’s condition, didn’t you?”
“You’ve never even met my wife, nor did you check her pulse. How could you possibly have come up with her diagnosis?”
The other new students stared at Yves with a mixture of shock and contempt.
Just moments ago, they were questioning their own abilities, wondering how they could have misdiagnosed such a simple case.
Now they knew. The problem wasn’t them—it was Yves!
They hadn’t known about the patient swap either, but for Yves to diagnose Mrs. Clark despite the change was highly suspicious.
“This is unfair! It’s a good thing they switched patients, or he would have gotten away with cheating!” one of the students exclaimed coldly.
Yves panicked, looking helplessly at Queena. “Queena…”

“That’s enough, Yves!” Queena cut him off sharply, her eyes flashing a warning. “I can’t believe you would cheat. Go back to the schooland await your punishment content.
Anastasia watched their exchange with a calm smile before speaking up. “She’s right. He should be
punished When we get back. But, what about the person who helped him cheat?”
“Patient files are kept under strict confidentiality. How did he get his hands on it? Only a few people had access. It shouldn’t be too hard to investigate. Wouldn’t you agree, Queena?”
Her tone was light and suggestive. Queena forced a smile, trying to maintain her composure. “You’re right. We will certainly investigate!”
She shot Anastasia a look as cold as ice.
She refused to believe this was a coincidence. First, the refusal to go to the living room, then the drawn bed curtains hiding the patient-it all felt deliberate.
Besides, she was just a housekeeper. Why was she staying in such a room? And why was Marlon, the master of the house, so concerned about her?!
All signs pointed to a deliberate setup.
A chill ran down Queena’s spine.
Today’s scheme was clearly aimed at Yves, or perhaps both of them. Did this mean Anastasia knew she had helped Yves cheat?
