Richard stopped talking to the doctor and rushed into the ICU. Just as the doctor had said, there was no one inside who looked like the Good samaritan.

He let out a frustrated groan, running his hand through his hair.

But when his eyes fell on the little girl lying on the bed, his expression softened, and he slowly walked closer.

The door behind him opened, and there was no need to guess who it was, the voice came immediately.

“Husband… she’s really okay, right?” Alisha asked as she walked in.

    Richard stopped talking to the doctor and rushed into the ICU. Just as the doctor had said, there was no one inside who looked like the Good samaritan.He let out a frustrated groan, running his hand through his hair.But when his eyes fell on the little girl lying on the bed, his expression softened, and he slowly walked closer.The door behind him opened, and there was no need to guess who it was, the voice came immediately.“Husband… she’s really okay, right?” Alisha asked as she walked in. She pulled a chair closer to the bed and sat down. “Oh my… my baby is sleeping.”Her slender hand gently touched Lily’s face.The couple stayed in the ICU for a while before Lily was eventually moved to another room.After they stepped out, Richard turned to Alisha. “You should go home first and take care of the little one. When you’re done, you can come back to check on Lily again.”Alisha nodded, her face glowing with relief and happiness.“Then what about you? Are you staying?” she asked.“I’

    Everyone stepped back as Richard’s behavior turned erratic. Why was he being so unreasonable?It was just a Good Samaritan trying to operate on a child who barely had any chance of survival.No one could understand his reaction.As the situation began to spiral, the board members exchanged uneasy glances and silently agreed on a way to handle it.One of them stepped forward. “Mr. Richard, please try to calm down. When the doctor mentioned a Good Samaritan taking it upon himself to treat your daughter, she didn’t explain it properly…”Richard cut him off impatiently. “What didn’t she explain properly? Do you expect her to spell it out, that some quack doctor is treating my daughter after all the professionals failed?”At that moment, regret crept into his mind. Bringing his daughter to this hospital had been a mistake. Maybe this cursed place had worsened her condition. He was ready to keep venting his anger.“Why am I even wasting time talking to you people? That quack is in there, ri

    Richard, who had been completely frozen, didn’t notice any of the exchange.When he finally snapped out of it, he heard Carl speaking to his wife.“Should I die with someone who’s dead or still alive?” Carl asked, glancing at Alisha for the first time.“Didn’t you see how Richard reacted to that call? If it’s from the hospital, then something has happened to my daughter, and you’re here saying nonsense!” Alisha snapped, clearly irritated.“Something? And what exactly could that be? Your husband told you, you’re just assuming.”“Look, Carl, stop this nonsense. You won’t get away with all this rubbish you’re saying,” Alisha fired back.“He’s right, Alisha,” Richard suddenly spoke.Alisha froze, then quickly turned and grabbed him. “Lily isn’t dead. She’s in the ICU, fighting for her life.”“Really?” Alisha’s voice broke, but relief was still visible on her face.While she looked relieved, Carl and Vivian noticed something else, Richard looked utterly defeated.“Don’t be too relieved yet

    Vivian looked at them like they were fools. It was as if she was seeing the two of them for the first time in her life. Of course, that wasn’t true.Even if she lost her memory, she would still remember them.How they had shown up at her house like crazy people, asking for their daughter to be treated by the same person they had wronged.Vivian didn’t smile at them. She frowned deeply.Sensing the hostility from her, Richard cleared his throat and dropped the fake smile.“Can I see Carl?” he asked again, this time in a colder tone.“Are you deaf? Call Carl out for us,” Alisha cut in from the side, puffing her cheeks arrogantly. “What am I even saying? Move aside and let us pass.”She had come to beg Carl to treat her daughter, but since he wasn’t there yet, she couldn’t hold back her bad attitude.Vivian folded her arms and refused to move from the doorway. “Why should I call Carl for you? What condition did Carl give you the other day? If you’ve fulfilled it, then maybe I’ll inform h

    Richard was in a mess. He moved around the operation floor, looking for a way out.“Richard, calm down. What are you doing?” Alisha quickly pulled him back. “Do you want people to think you’re crazy?”Her sudden shout brought Richard back to his senses. He stared at her for a moment.Noticing he had calmed down, Alisha asked, her eyes still on the operation room, “I’m not seeing any doctor or nurse coming out of Lily’s operation room. Do you think she’s been saved?”She stepped closer to Richard and even let out a small laugh. Her tense body seemed to relax a little.Richard quickly pulled his arm away from her. “Be serious, Alisha.”Alisha was shocked and couldn’t help asking, “Are you scolding me for trying to lighten the mood?”Her thoughts began to wander, and she was ready to argue, but Richard didn’t give her the chance.“Dr. Collins has left,” he said, dropping the news.But the reaction he expected from Alisha didn’t come. She paused for a moment, then suddenly became excited.

    Everyone outside the operation room was shocked. Those who had just arrived quickly understood the situation, even though they hadn’t been there from the start.Looking at Richard, who stood completely frozen, the hospital board members knew they couldn’t rely on him anymore.If Richard came back to his senses and things were still this tense, he might not listen to anyone and could even destroy the hospital in anger.The fear of what might happen made them more anxious, but they tried to stay calm and think clearly. They slowly stepped closer to Dr. Collins.“You said you did your best, but it wasn’t enough… what exactly do you mean?” they asked nervously.At that question, everyone’s heart tightened. Quickly, they glanced at Dr Collins.Richard also turned to look at him. He couldn't wait to hear what Dr Collins had to say next.“I tried to save the little girl, but I couldn’t,” Dr. Collins said, looking disappointed. “My medical skills were not enough…”Many people blinked in confu
