His Secret Spoiled Wife (Lily and Alexander) novel Chapter 1662

After a while, she stood and looked toward Dr. Blanc. “I’d like to have a word with you.”

“How’s the kid?” Dr. Blanc questioned, furrowing his brow.

"She should be stable for now," she said euphemistically, bending down to pinch Debbie's cheeks with one hand and stuffing something into her mouth with the other.

She did it so swiftly that others could not do anything but shout, “What did you feed her?!”

“Dr. Blanc, let’s talk alone,” Lily said indifferently while turning to face him.

Before Dr. Blanc could reply, Dashiell chuckled coldly. "What can't you say here that you must speak with Dr. Blanc alone? We’re all colleagues, and as Dr. Blanc said, we’re all on the battlefront together. How are there secrets we are not privy to?

"Dr. Blanc, you said you wouldn't let her off the hook easily, and I believe there’s no secrets between the two of you. So, I’m wondering, Dr. Russell, what is it that you could only tell Dr. Blanc and not us?”

Dashiell looked around, and someone piped up, “Yeah! If it’s about the patient, then we should hear it. If not… Dr. Russell, you should tell us about your view on her current condition, shouldn’t you?”

At the mention of this, Dr. Blanc said, “That’s right! Let's not get started on other topics, Lily. How’s she doing?”

He sincerely hoped that nothing had gone wrong. Although he was not an expert on herbal medicine, he had somehow learned about it and seen how Dominic cured someone before.

‘Herbal medicine doctors were sometimes able to heal things that regular doctors couldn't. I must admit that herbal medicine is a vast subject, but Lily is too young. Even if I trust her and she is Dominic’s last and best apprentice, would she truly not make a mistake?’

Seeing so many waiting for her answer, Lily looked around, then fixed a firm gaze on Dr. Blanc and slowly said, “She’ll live.”

Hearing it, everyone reacted differently. Some let out a sigh of relief, while the rest were doubtful. Dashiell tried to put her on the spot. “She’ll live? Dr. Russell, what the h*ll do you mean by that? Staying alive could mean anything.

“Someone in a vegetative state could still breathe and be considered alive, but are they alright? The girl was lively and appeared to be on her way to recovery and discharge. Does the fact that she couldn't wake up despite being alive mean you were successful?" He spoke sharply, looking askance at Lily with each sentence.

Those who agreed with him repeatedly nodded, thinking he was right in saying so.

Dr. Blanc frowned thoughtfully.

“Dr. Stone, have I ever said so? The child is in an emergency state, and all you do is talk. Is that what you should be doing as a doctor? You started talking about her being in a vegetative state before we could reach a conclusion. Do you really want her to be that way? Is it more important to prove your point than to uphold a doctor's ethical standards?"

Turning to look at him, Lily did not back down and threw sharp questions back at him.

Stumped, Dashiell briefly let out a flustered look but quickly regained his confidence. “Stop blaming others! Who the h*ll caused the kid to end up in an emergency state? What about your ethical standards as a doctor? Who denied her blood transfusion and claimed she would surely get well? Who is the one risking the patient’s life?”
