His unwanted wife, the world’s coveted genius

Chapter 596:

There were two missed calls. Frowning slightly, Belinda stared at the caller ID. She quickly called back. “Hello…”

“Dr. Wright.” The voice on the other end of the line was smooth and charismatic.

Belinda asked, “Mr. Lambert, why did you call me earlier?”

Darwin replied, “I called you because I wanted to ask if you’re free tonight. Would you join me for dinner?”

Belinda hesitated. Before she could decline, Darwin continued, “I have a friend whose son has a congenital heart defect. He underwent surgery a while ago, but there have been some complications recently. I’d like to discuss his situation with you during the meal. I want to show you his medical records.”

The mention of a congenital heart defect piqued Belinda’s curiosity. After a moment’s thought, she replied, “Alright. I’m free this evening.”

Darwin chuckled softly. “Great. I’ll confirm the location and send it to you shortly.”

“Sounds good,” Belinda said.

After hanging up, Belinda placed her phone on the desk and turned her attention back to work.

Across the room, Kylee occasionally glanced Belinda’s way. Her sharp eyes caught the details: the outfit beneath Belinda’s white coat was the same one Belinda had worn yesterday at the Dream Club. That could only mean one thing—Belinda hadn’t gone home last night. She must have spent the night with Lucas.

Kylee gritted her teeth in frustration at the thought. She couldn’t help but curse Verena in her heart.noveldrama

That useless woman! She had failed to stop Belinda from spending the night with Lucas.

Before, Kylee had thought Lucas cared a lot about Verena. But now, she realized that Verena meant nothing to Lucas.

In the evening, Belinda arrived at the restaurant for her meeting with Darwin. As soon as they sat down, Darwin handed Belinda a medical file.

“Dr. Wright, please review this.”

Belinda nodded and opened the folder. She read the records with practiced focus.

The patient was a young child diagnosed with Tetralogy of Fallot, a common congenital heart defect characterized by four key issues: a ventricular septal defect, pulmonary stenosis, an overriding aorta, and right ventricular hypertrophy. The child had undergone corrective surgery six months ago but was now experiencing complications. While the situation wasn’t critical, it required careful management.

Belinda asked, “What are the patient’s parents hoping to do? Continue treatment at their current hospital or transfer him to the Grand Plains General Hospital?”

Darwin replied, “They want to transfer him to the Grand Plains General Hospital. That’s why I wanted to ask if you’d be willing to take on the case.”
