Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back! ( Leanne Castillo ) novel Chapter 303

The morning's surgeries had barely ended when Amy rushed over to Leanne.

"Dr. Castillo, we just admitted a patient suspected of having uveitis. Ruben asked for you to check on him."

"Right away." Leanne swiftly changed out of her scrubs, donned her white coat, and headed to the ward.

Several people surrounded the hospital bed, some sitting, some standing. As Leanne entered, multiple gazes shifted toward her.

Suzan, Claudine, and a few unfamiliar people were there, while Harrington lay on the bed.

Upon seeing her, Ruben promptly introduced her to the group. "This is Dr. Castillo from our department who is young and talented. Her expertise in uveitis is well recognized. She’s also known for her great character. I think she’s the best choice for Mr. Wright’s consultation. What do you think?"

"It’s you," Harrington faded his smile, a clear displeasure evident in his tone.

Remaining professional, Leanne greeted him, "Mr. Wright."

Ruben, sensing the tension in the air, glanced back and forth between Leanne and the Wright family.

The patient was a high-profile one, personally admitted by the deputy director. Ruben had thought that Leanne, with her past as a high-society wife, would be perfect for the job, but it seemed he had misjudged the situation.

Harrington scrutinized her with a critical eye. "She’s only been working for a few years as a woman. What kind of expertise could she have? Doesn’t your hospital have other specialists?"

"There are indeed other specialists," Ruben hurried to explain. "Dr. Smith is also an expert in uveitis, but he’s away on a consultation right now."

Harrington was reluctant to have Leanne examine him, and Leanne wasn’t particularly eager to entangle herself more with his family than necessary.

Despite not specializing in uveitis, Leanne’s experience in ophthalmology was extensive.

Ruben might not have the best personality, but his medical skills were competent.

Leanne decided to step away, "Then, I'll leave you to it."

"Wait," Suzan suddenly spoke up, persuading Harrington. "Dad, since it's Leanne’s area of expertise and we all know each other, it might be best to let her handle it."

Leanne wasn’t sure what Suzan was scheming but responded, "There are many more experienced doctors in our department. Ruben is more skilled. Let them take care of Mr. Wright."

Harrington wasn't keen on Leanne, just some orphan who turned into a thorn in their family's side.

He might disdain her, but he wouldn’t allow her to refuse treating him.

"How do doctors have the right to refuse treating patients?" Harrington spoke with the authority of a seasoned chairman. "Since Suzan and your chief have recommended you, let’s proceed with you then."
