Seraphina’s First Surgery
The hospital felt more alive than ever today. Almost everyone was moving through the OR wing carrying the same expression, and that was curiosity.Because today was the day that the new surgeon, Seraphina's Vale would perform her first surgery in MMG.It was a Level IV reconstructive case, and on her first week as well.No got that kind of approval, unless someone exceptional had wanted them on stage, or they were exceptional.The nurses gathered around the OR board while whispering in quiet voices."Level IV? Already? Isn't that too much for someone who just came newly?""Who does that on day three?""I heard Chairman Cole is going to be supervising from the observation deck. That's how you know that this is serious.""Or it might be suspicious too..."The hype for the surgery was so much, that even senior surgeons pretended they were just passing through, even though they were walking slow enough that it would be convenient for them to watch what was happening through the windows.A
Dr. Seraphina Vale
MMG had seen it's fair share of royalty, celebrities, billionaires, foreign dignitaries.But none of them had ever walked in the was the new Surgeon just did.The automatic front doors opened softly.The moment she stepped inside, all eyes were on her. The lobby was instantly frozen, some conversation cut off mid sentence.Nurses continuously shot stares at her. Two residents straightened their scrubs subconsciously.Even some of the security has to adjust their stance the moment they saw her passing.Whispers began to spread instantly."Is that the new surgeon?""I don't like her. She's new hear, yet she is already walking like she owns the place.""I wonder where MMG found her."Everything about the woman before them felt unsettling, and it wasn't just her beauty.Even the way she walked felt different.Before she could leave the lobby, Adrian walked out of the Research wing with a slightly exhausted stride.Immediately his eyes landed on Seraphine, his body went still.Noticing
The New Surgeon
MMG felt strangely quiet the dawn after the surgery.The halls were only filled with the whispers of staff, and nothing else. Nurses walked around quickly. Resident that would've usually been asleep around that time were lingering outside the surgery.They pretended to be reviewing charts but it was clear they were waiting for gossip.The overnight staff exchanged uneasy glances as they watched the morning shift staff arrive one by one.One of the staff murmured. "I heard a patient almost died in the OR last night. Is that true?"Another from the end of the hall whispered. "Security has been doubled again. Why? Did something happen?""I didn't see Chairman Cole leaving the building last night." One of the nurses said."Yes! Dr.Mknroe slept here as well. And that never happens."The single pieces of rumors kept on watching together to form a single truth. Something big had happened once again.Meanwhile, over in one of the restricted research labs. The soft light radiating from the ris
Another Deadly Trap
The alarms kept on ringing, causing more panic within the OR department.A nurse ran out of OR-3, raising her voice over the alarm. Loud enough for the other nurses to hear."It's the patient! Her vitals are crashing! Incision's ruptured—we're losing him!"Another voice came from behind."Call Chairman Cole and Dr. Monroe! Now!!"The corridor became scattered as the nurses began to scramble around, pushing carts and snapping gloves on their hands.Before some of the nurses could head out to call Adrian and Lily, they both burst through the OR doors.Lily appeared first, her breath slightly ragged before Adrian followed after looking slightly more composed than Lily.His eyes locked on to the collapsing patient and his expression immediately changed into something colder."What happened?" Lily exclaimed.One of the circulating nurses pointed at the patient's abdomen, completely pale with horror. "We don't know what happened. Her incision was reopened cleanly. Like it was cutLily felt
A Confession
The very next day, Lily sat quietly in her office with her tablet in her hand, when a soft knock was heard on the door.She looked up, and at that moment Adrian pushed the door open and walked in. When she saw it was him, her fingers wrapped around the tablet tighter.She could still remember how they had found out the day before that Lily was a target the Foundation planned on using. Perhaps Adrian wanted to talk to her about it."Adrian? Is there something wrong?" She asked quietly.He didn't answer, but instead he walked over to her desk and placed something on it, before stepping aside.Lily's eyes widened as she looked at the content.It was a scalpel. And beside it an image of her captured while she was walking down one of the hallways. The picture was grainy, but it was still clear enough for her to decipher that it was her they had captured.The final item was a folded note. Adrian didn't bother opening it for her, instead he just stared at her as she reached out with shaky h
The Safehouse
Eric walked into Adrian's office hurriedly without knocking, slamming open the door so hard that it rattled it's very framed. That single action already told Adrian the severity of whatever situation was brought to his doorstep this time.He looked up from the threat envelope that was on his desk. Vivian, who Adrian had called over a while back spun around from her workstation to look at Eric's rushed expression.Eric walked over to Adrian's desk and dropped a folder on it."I did it! I was able to trace the origin of the origin!"Adrian stood up abruptly, causing his seat to move backwards. "Where?""At first there were three dummy drops. All were dead ends on purpose." Eric said quietly, while opening the folder. "Then it was moved through a courier shell company. There were nonexistent staff. It was a classic misdirection. But sadly for them, I was able to locate it.""Wait! So who actually sent it?" Vivian asked, leaning in."That...is the part you are not going to like." Eric rel
