Report
The new intern in the unit had to be chronically incompetent. He handled my mother's post-surgery medication and somehow mixed up the drug. He gave her a potent blood thinner. That night, she died from a hemorrhage after her operation. Before I could even accuse him, the intern had his puppy-dog eyes ready. "I'm sorry, Dr. Benford, but I thought that was the drug you wanted me to mix. Who was I to question my superior's order?" Then the hospital director, who was also my wife, chimed in, "Your mom is the idiot for taking her meds without checking. She brought this on herself." I was so enraged that I had a heart attack, which meant I had to undergo surgery in the same hospital. The intern insisted on redeeming himself and assisted Victoria during the operation. He could not even thread a needle because his hands kept trembling. In the middle of the procedure, this medical fraud removed his mask and wet the end of the surgical thread to force it through. I died in the ICU the next day. The cause was a bacterial infection. As I neared death, I heard the intern whine through tears, "How could I be so careless? If I weren't so clumsy, Dr. Benford would have lived." Victoria gently ruffled his hair. "Don't take it to heart, pumpkin. Everyone knows how risky medical procedures can be. You're just starting out, so don't be so hard on yourself." Because of my wife's efforts, both my mother and I were cremated without any investigation or disciplinary action. You would think that was the end. It wasn't. The next time I opened my eyes, I was back on the day Hugo Spencer first joined our hospital as an intern.

"Oh, that's the truth, huh? You and that bitch are going down!"The woman raised the broom and swung at them with all her strength, striking wildly without regard for where the blows landed.In the chaos, she jabbed straight into Victoria's waist. The impact forced a pained whimper from her, and she doubled over, clutching herself.Hugo screamed. The woman did not stop. She continued to rain blows on him, driven as if by years of pent-up resentment. "You cheated on me! You think I'm just going to let you get away with that, you little bitch?!"Everything happened in an instant.The crowd shouted and scattered.I forced myself out of my shock, pulled out my phone, and called the police and an ambulance.Supermarket security rushed in to subdue the woman. It took several men to pin her to the ground.I stepped forward and assessed Hugo and Victoria.Victoria's abdomen bled heavily, and she was losing consciousness. By contrast, Hugo remained fully alert. He had sustained multipl

With that, I turned away from her and entered the apartment, swiping my keycard.Victoria might have worn a look of regret or shame. It was impossible to tell, and it was no longer my concern. I simply did not care."The world is full of couples like us, isn't it? People who can face adversity together yet cannot stay together when everything should be in their favor," I muttered.…The next time I ran into Hugo by chance, it was an ordinary weekend afternoon. I was buying groceries for the week when I spotted that incompetent bum across the aisle.He looked far more gaunt than before. He no longer seemed to care about grooming himself into a polished image, and his clothes were plain. He looked tired and embittered, like a man worn down by life who had come to resent the world.He was arguing in a low voice with a woman in a skintight dress over the price of vegetables. Something about her felt overtly worldly.When he looked up, his eyes locked onto mine.He froze. Then his e

He paused, then added, "I heard that after she left her position, she started acting more and more like a stereotypical unemployed bum. She spends her days drinking now."Then she somehow heard about how well you've been doing and began telling everyone how close the two of you were back then. She says you'll definitely come back to her one day."I smirked and said nothing. Now that was a joke.…A few days later, on my way back to my apartment, I found Victoria lingering near the lobby. She looked frailer and more worn than before. The proud, self-assured aura she once projected had vanished. Even her clothes looked dowdy. She held a grocery bag.Her eyes brightened when she saw me."Albert!" she called, hurrying over with feigned warmth. "I've come to visit your mother. I heard she's been recovering well. How is she? I brought some fruit."I stepped away and did not reach for the bag. "Are we friends, Miss Gideon? You shouldn't have."She froze mid-motion, a flicker of embarr

Hugo grabbed Victoria and burst into hysterical sobs. "You told me you'd love me forever! You said you'd protect me no matter what happened! But you're not doing any of that now. You're cutting me off. How could you? Why?"Disgust filled Victoria's eyes. She slapped his hands away. "Get off me, you madman! How did I even fall for someone like you? I must have been blind.""That makes two of us. You used me, and now you're trying to use me one last time to get yourself out of jail. You piece of shit," Hugo shot back.The crowd watched in pained silence as the two launched into a loud, grating public spat. They shouted over each other, screeching as though the world were their stage, laying bare each other's schemes and selfish motives.Marcus' expression darkened.At last, one of the officers snapped, "Break them up. Now!"Several officers stepped in and pulled them apart, then cuffed them both. "Victoria Gideon, Hugo Spencer, you are both detained on suspicion of involvement in a
