Ex-Wife Ruined My Career, Then Begged for Help Chapter 10
I stood up and took a deep breath.After two years, the massive weight crushing my chest had finally been lifted.Blaire completely lost it. She let out a blood-curdling shriek, tearing frantically at her own hair as she rolled across the floor.Everything that followed happened in the blink of an eye.By dawn, a joint investigation team had arrived at the hospital.Vincent was escorted out of the administration building in handcuffs. He was facing charges for abuse of power, illegal authorizations, and a long string of financial crimes.What awaited him now was a long prison sentence.Blaire, on the other hand, was left to face the absolute fury of Malcolm's family.After losing their son, the Pierces channeled every ounce of their hatred directly toward her. They camped outside her apartment daily, vandalizing her walls, shattering her windows, and leaving creepy, ritualistic puppets right in her hallway.The police formally opened a criminal investigation against her for

Blaire's grip on my leg loosened. She stared blankly at the body inside the resuscitation bay as the nurses drew a white sheet over it.Vincent collapsed heavily onto the floor, his face ashen.He knew it, too.After a catastrophic medical incident like this, his days as executive vice president were as good as over.Over on the corridor bench, Margaret slowly came to. The very first thing she heard was Spencer announcing the time of death."My boy!"Margaret let out a ragged scream, rolling off the bench onto the floor. Her eyes swept the room, instantly locking onto Blaire, whose face was already smeared with blood.All of a sudden, Margaret charged at her like a furious mother bear, catching Blaire by the hair. "You! You killed my son!"Her palms struck Blaire's face over and over again."If you hadn't insisted on suspending Dr. Whitlock, my son would've been in surgery hours ago! You brought this curse on us! You're a murderer!"Blaire couldn't fight back. Her nose bled h

Blaire frantically shook her head.Then, she let out a piercing, ragged shriek, lunging at me like a lunatic. "You did this on purpose, Asher! You intentionally hid your skills from me just so you could sit back and watch me make a fool of myself today!"Looking at her manic state, I found the entire scene incredibly pathetic."I hid my skills?" I asked, my gaze stone-cold. "If you had bothered to look at the hospital's wall of honor even once, if you had asked a single doctor in cardiothoracic surgery, if you had shown even a shred of interest in the man who was your husband in name for the past two years, you would've known there isn't a single chest in this state I can't crack open and fix."Beside me, Cole let out a sharp scoff."Ms. Sutton, Dr. Aldridge told you about Asher's skills months ago. Do you remember what you said back then? You said he was just a brainless drone who only knew how to cut people open. Without your uncle backing him, he wouldn't be worth a damn thin

Vincent looked as if he had just been struck by lightning, freezing completely in his tracks.Blaire's face was entirely drained of color, her eyes practically bulging out of her head as she stared at William."W-What did you just say?" Her voice cracked, pitching into a panicked shriek.I slowly rose from the shadows where I had been sitting. Step by step, I walked into the light."Professor Grant," I said, looking at William.William whipped his head around toward me. Seeing me in my everyday clothes, radiating the pungent smell of liquor, his eyes widened in sheer disbelief."Asher? Why are you dressed like that?"Furious, he pointed his cane at me. "A patient is dying in there, and you're standing out here like this? Why aren't you scrubbed in? And have you been drinking?"Facing my mentor's anger, I straightened my back. I pointed at Blaire, who was still paralyzed on the floor, and then shifted my finger to Vincent."Professor Grant, I can't operate. Five days ago, w

Blaire sprinted out of the resuscitation bay and collapsed to the floor in front of Vincent."Uncle Vincent, where's the specialist you mentioned? When will the specialist from Jorvia get here?" she demanded.Vincent wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "I got hold of him. Professor Grant happens to be in town for a conference, and he's already on his way by car. He'll be here in 20 minutes."It was as if Blaire had been thrown a lifeline.She scrambled to her feet, whirled around to face me, a fresh spark of hope reigniting in her eyes."Asher, did you honestly think Malcolm was a dead man just because you refused to operate? Professor William Grant is the best cardiothoracic surgeon in the country, and he'll be here any minute. Compared to him, you're nothing!"She smoothed her messy hair, thrusting a finger in my face."Once Professor Grant saves Malcolm, I swear to God I won't just get your license revoked. I'll make sure you end up in prison."I leaned back in my chair,

I tipped my head back and drank the remaining liquor in a few heavy gulps, then let go, letting the empty bottle shatter into a million pieces on the floor. Everyone froze in shock.Cole's jaw dropped, Spencer's eyes widened, and even the two men in black took a synchronized step back."You…" Blaire gasped, her finger trembling violently as she pointed at me.I wiped the residue from the corner of my mouth and looked at Vincent's face, which had gone pale."Chapter Four, Article 12 of the Code of Practice for Surgeons," I said. "Doctors are strictly prohibited from performing surgery or other high-risk medical procedures while intoxicated. Anyone who violates that rule will have their medical license revoked and may face criminal charges."Dr. Donovan, does your emergency authorization include a clause that allows a doctor to operate while drunk?"Vincent stumbled backward, his finger trembling as he pointed at me. But for a long moment, he couldn't form a single syllable."Yo
