Left to Die So Her First Love Lives Chapter 11
The case against Conrad was resolved quickly. He had not only falsified medical records and exploited Nicole's guilt to manipulate her into giving him special treatment for years, but was also suspected of tampering with the mountain rescue team's information. Worse still, he had obtained an unapproved antivenom through a private clinic. Before the hike, he'd deliberately released a particularly venomous snake near the campsite. He knew there were snakes in the mountain. He was also aware that both Nicole and I exercised regularly, but I was the only one who went hiking outdoors on a regular basis. He had even looked into my medical history and knew I had no underlying heart or lung conditions. In fact, he'd calculated exactly how Nicole would react when the time came to choose between us. …As for Nicole, she was now under investigation. "Dr. Sterling, the regulators have confirmed irregularities in the hospital's procurement records for the antivenom," William said,

Nicole's hand slowly fell to her side. She wanted to explain, but every explanation felt painfully inadequate. Outside the hospital room, I could hear Astrid speaking with the lawyers. "The divorce petition has been filed, and Garrett Group's withdrawal process is complete," she said. "There's one more thing. We need to reassess ownership of the hospital's core medical equipment purchased with our funds."Nicole's head snapped up. "Andre, you're really taking all the equipment back?""That equipment belongs to our family anyway," Astrid interrupted coldly. "We only lent it to your hospital."Nicole turned to me. "Do you have any idea how many patients will be affected if you take all that equipment away?""I know.""And you're still going to do it?""Of course," I said evenly. "You can continue being the doctor who saves lives, but you can't take my family's money to save other people while leaving my life in someone else's hands."I'm not doing this to get revenge. I'm

Just then, sirens sounded outside the hospital room. Several police officers walked in. "Mr. Hayes, we've received a report alleging that you deliberately tampered with emergency communication equipment, falsified medical information, and intentionally caused harm."We need you to come with us."The color drained from Conrad's face. He turned to Nicole, as though she were the last person who could save him. "Nicole, please," he begged. "You have to help me. You said you'd protect me no matter what happened."But Nicole stood where she was, unmoving. "Conrad, stop lying to me," she finally said after a long silence. As the police led Conrad away, he passed my bedside. He suddenly stopped, lowered his voice, and let out a quiet chuckle. "Andre, you think you've won just because you're getting a divorce?" he taunted. "Nicole still loves me more than anyone. Even if I go to prison, she'll never forget me.""Then I hope the two of you will always love each other," I replie

"Dr. Sterling," Astrid said evenly. "If Mr. Hayes really has a serious heart condition, then let him get tested right now."If he doesn't, then we can talk about his fabricated medical records, his interference with the rescue operation, and the fact that he lied about his condition."Conrad's head snapped up. "You can't accuse me of something like that!"Astrid smiled. "Accuse you?" She spread another set of documents across the table. "These are the communication records provided by the mountain rescue company."After Mr. Hayes was bitten by the snake, he used your phone to send a message to the rescue team."Nicole's eyes narrowed. "What message?"Astrid slid the record toward her. "The injured patient, Andre Garrett, has already been taken toward the north slope by the others in his group. Please prioritize Conrad Hayes."Nicole stared at the message, the color slowly draining from her face. "I didn't send that," she whispered. "But it was sent from your phone,"

As I grew lost in thought, the door suddenly opened. Conrad walked in on crutches. He was dressed in loose white clothes, his face pale. Around his wrist was a bracelet Nicole had given him. "Mr. Garrett." He lingered in the doorway for a moment before speaking. "Can I talk to you?""No," Astrid replied bluntly. Conrad stiffened. "Ms. Garrett, I just wanted to apologize to Andre.""Who do you think you are to act like you're close to him?" Astrid cut him off. "Get out."Conrad clenched his jaw, his expression turning ashen. "I know you hate me because of the antivenom, but I swear I never thought things would turn out this way."Nicole told me you were strong and healthy, and that you'd be able to hold on until the rescue team arrived. If I'd known you were going to lose your leg, I never would have…""Never would have what?" I asked, looking at him. "Taken the antivenom?"Conrad froze. "I didn't take it from you," he argued. "Nicole made the decision to give it to me

Silence enveloped the room. After a moment, Nicole turned and walked out. But just as she reached the door, she suddenly stopped in her tracks. "Andre," she began. "I'll come back to see you once you've calmed down."I didn't respond. "You'd better not come back," Astrid called out as she watched her leave. Nicole didn't look back. The moment the door closed behind her, I finally felt the weight I'd been carrying for five long years begin to lift. But I had no idea the real trouble was only just beginning. …The very next morning, news of Sterling Hospital's financial crisis made headlines across the business news. Garrett Group had pulled all of its investments and frozen the related shares. Three of Sterling Hospital's branch expansions were suspended, while multiple high-value medical equipment contracts were forced to a halt. At the press conference, reporters crowded around Nicole, thrusting their microphones toward her. "Dr. Sterling, is the Garrett Group's
