All Chapters of He Slept With My Sister, When I Was Giving Birth: Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

EvelynI walked through the corridor in a daze, my medical bag feeling heavier with each step. The weight of it seemed to pull at my shoulder, dragging me down.I found an empty consultation room and slipped inside, locking the door behind me. I needed a moment to process what had just happened.Catherine had dismissed my treatment as "kitchen remedies" and "completely inadequate." She'd acted like I was some amateur playing with herbs I didn't understand.But that made no sense.I set my bag down on the small table and stared at it. Every technique I'd used, every herbal compound in Susan's treatment, had come directly from Catherine's own research. My mother had been the one to teach me that these genetic conditions responded better to natural compounds than synthetic alternatives when properly calibrated."Natural compounds bond more effectively with the genetic markers," she'd explained during one of our rare mother-daughter sessions when I was studying. "Synthetic alternatives cr

EvelynI received the summons to Damon's office with a mixture of relief and dread. At least I had a chance to defend my position, but facing both Damon and Catherine together felt like walking into a trap.When I arrived, I found Catherine already seated across from Damon's desk, looking composed and confident. Damon gestured for me to take the other chair."Dr. Graham, Dr. Winters has some concerns about your treatment approach for Susan," Damon began diplomatically. "I'd like to hear your response before making any decisions."A small spark of hope flickered in my chest. Damon had warned me about Catherine before. The fact that he'd called me here to get my side of the story instead of just accepting Catherine's dismissal meant something. Maybe he'd give me at least a little support.Catherine leaned forward immediately. "The treatment protocol is completely inadequate. Susan needs targeted enzyme therapy, not herbal remedies that mask symptoms without addressing the underlying gen

EvelynI stood frozen as Damon cradled Catherine's unconscious form. She'd been pointing at me, whispering about the resemblance between Ava and me. It was barely audible, but the recognition in her eyes had been unmistakable before she collapsed.My mind raced through my options. Catherine's behavior since arriving suddenly made complete sense - the memory lapses, the confusion, the way she'd forgotten her own research, couldn't remember making specific medical claims.Catherine had cognitive decline. And knowing her pride, she would never admit such weakness. That's why something this serious had gone unnoticed and untreated.I had two choices. I could gamble that when Catherine woke up, she wouldn't remember what triggered her collapse - which, given her condition, was highly likely. Or I could take Ava and run right now, while everyone was focused on the medical emergency.I looked at Ava, who stood pressed against the wall with wide, frightened eyes. Taking her meant explaining e

SusanMargaret stormed into my room without knocking, her face flushed with barely contained rage."It might be difficult working with Catherine," she announced, her voice sharp with frustration.My breathing quickened, irritation flooding through me. "What if Damon had been here with the way you just barged in?"Margaret faltered for a moment, clearly having no good answer to that, but pressed forward anyway. "Did you not hear what I just told you? Your mother is being deliberately annoying, claiming she doesn't remember me. It's outrageous.""Wouldn't it have been better for you to just ignore her too?"Margaret's face flushed deeper. "I shouldn't have to ignore anyone in my own pack. Especially not some arrogant—""Margaret," I cut her off, thinking this through. Something about this felt wrong. Mother didn't typically care about petty power struggles enough to play games. The only reason she and Margaret ever had issues in the past was because Margaret was always trying to impose

Evelyn"What did you just do?"My mind raced, trying to formulate an explanation, some way to justify what Damon had just witnessed. I was caught off guard, desperately searching for the right words when suddenly Susan's voice cut through the tension."She attacked Margaret!" Susan screamed in complete horror. "Damon, help! The doctor just attacked Margaret!"I froze, caught completely off guard by Susan's reaction. I'd been so focused on managing Damon that I'd completely forgotten about Susan being right there. Now she was screaming for help like I was some kind of dangerous killer - which, from her perspective, I probably was. This was Susan's first real chance to escape from someone who'd been using her medical condition as leverage for weeks."She just stabbed her in the neck!" Susan continued, her voice getting more hysterical. "Margaret's unconscious! She could be dead!"Damon looked caught between responses, his gaze moving from Margaret's unconscious form on the ground back u
