He Tried to Destroy Me, I Took His License

Chapter 3

I walked out of the emergency room, completely drained.

Lily stepped forward right away, holding up a prescription sheet that bore my signature.

The dosage written there was exactly the same as what she had given the patient!

"Dr. Whitlock, how could you be so irresponsible? How can you make such a simple mistake?"

The patient's wealthy grandfather slammed his heavy cane hard against the floor.

"Dr. Whitlock, you have let me down terribly! You will pay for this and spend the rest of your life behind bars!"

Alan had appeared at some point, standing quietly to the side. When he noticed me looking at him, he just shrugged.

"We may be husband and wife, but I will not defend you. A doctor's job is to save lives, yet you cannot even get the dosage right. I truly do not know how you ever became head of the Pediatric Department."

His words made me shake all over with anger.

I had never really counted on him to help me, but I never imagined he would kick me so hard when I was already down.

For all the years we had been married, I had done everything for our family.

When I was pregnant, I developed high blood pressure from the pregnancy.

My colleagues all advised me to end the pregnancy, saying, "You are still young. You can have children later, but if something happens to you, you'll lose everything!"

But I knew Alan had always wanted a child, so I refused to give up.

I stayed in bed for three whole weeks, resting until I reached full term, then gave birth by cesarean section.

After the surgery, I suffered severe bleeding and needed nearly one thousand cubic centimeters of blood. At that time, he held my hand, crying, and promised he would treat me well for the rest of his life.

I never guessed that 'the rest of his life' would be so short.

Everything changed the moment Lily arrived.

Thinking of this, I raised my hand and slapped him hard across the face.

Everyone around us froze in shock.

"Have you no shame at all?"

That slap made Alan lose face in front of Lily. Furious and humiliated, he immediately called the hospital director.

"Aside from what happened today, there are other matters regarding Dr. Whitlock that I must report to you in person. She may be my wife, but I cannot stand by while she acts against the hospital's interests. I must help remove this troublemaker from our staff. And I am not making this up. I have proof."

The way he looked at me was no longer like a husband looking at his wife. It was pure hatred, as if I were his worst enemy.

In my past life, he had only tried to cover up Lily's mistakes. But in this life, he wanted to ruin me completely.

With that thought, every last bit of feeling I still held for him vanished.

I lowered my head, looking completely calm and unbothered.

I opened my phone and quickly sent out a text.

Elaine: Speed up the investigation on the matter we discussed.
