Chapter 1

While I was being escorted away by Medical Affairs, I was still trying to process what was happening.I explained blankly. “I had an emergency patient brought just at that moment. His condition was critical. I reassigned that specialty drug to save them. Dr. Guzman’s surgery could’ve been completed perfectly well with the standard alternative.”“Did you consult anyone first?”I opened my mouth to answer, only to realize I had none.The patient’s condition had been deteriorating by the minute. When I had raised the issue in the operating room, no one had objected, but no one had explicitly supported it either.What I did not anticipate was that the new intern, June Wyck, would turn this incident into a weapon aiming at me.The sudden buzzing of my phone pulled me out of my thoughts. June had posted an announcement in the department group chat.[Attention, everyone. Effective immediately, all requests for specialty medications must be reviewed and approved by me before dispensing.

After replying to the message, I decided to go to the office to retrieve my computer.When I reached the department entrance, I froze.The card reader on the security lock glowed red, meaning that my access card had been deactivated.Through the glass door, I saw June sitting at my desk.I knocked on the glass.June looked up. When she saw it was me, she opened the door and blocked the entrance. “Dr. Britton, you can’t blame me for this. Dr. Guzman put me in charge of the department’s medications. I had to prove to him that I was doing my job.”“So reporting me was your idea of proving that?”“You’re not being fair to me.” She tilted her head. “If you had done nothing wrong, a report would not do any harm, right?”“June, do you even know who owns this hospi—”She cut me off with an impatient wave. “Enough, Dr. Britton. A doctor about to lose her license wants to pretend that she runs the hospital? Save that act for Dr. Guzman. Honestly, that attitude is exactly why I had you

Evan’s call left me distracted for the rest of the afternoon.Tom’s phone remained switched off.The department group chat, however, was as active as ever.June sent a voice message in the group chat.“Everyone, I have another update. To preserve streamline workflow, I’ve decided to cancel the weekly complex-case review meetings. Just focus on managing your own patients. No more staying up every week putting together presentations.”Her message received overwhelming supportive responses.[Yes! No more staying up all night every week to make slides!][June, you’re the best!]I stared at the screen, unsure what to say.This meant they could do whatever they wanted without having to answer to anyone.They saw it as freedom. However, I knew it was a disaster for rigorous patient safety.I took a deep breath and texted Evan.[Find out where Tom went this afternoon.]Then, I put my phone away and headed to the office to collect my personal belongings.I should at least get my p

By the time I left the hospital, it was fully dark outside.I replayed everything in my mind from beginning to end.June had reported me. Tom was not answering his phone. Medical Affairs was investigating me. My patients had been reassigned. My research paper was being stolen. My case records had been torn apart and taken away.I was afraid to even think about what all of this could mean.Had Tom quietly been allowing all of this to happen? After a moment of thought, I opened the department group chat and sent a message.[Everyone, there is something I feel I must make clear in this chat. Without my consent, June Wyck has used my patient records, modified my paper draft, and claimed first authorship for herself. This constitutes academic misconduct. I have preserved the relevant evidence and will report it to the hospital’s Ethics Committee if necessary.]Not long after I sent it, a private message from June popped up.[That’s not a good look on you, Olivia. The paper has

June’s smug smile froze at the corners of her mouth. Her gaze darted back and forth between me and Tom with shock written all over her face.The younger doctors exchanged bewildered looks. “What did she just call him?”Tom’s lips parted slightly, as though he wanted to say something. In the end, he only frowned. I knew that expression all too well. I had seen it my entire life. Whenever I did something that disappointed him, that was the look he gave me.“Olivia.” He finally spoke. His voice was filled with disappointment. “You’ve really let me down.”It hurt.“June is your junior. You are her supervising physician. How can you be so intolerant of a junior colleague? First you take this into the group chat, and now you want to involve the entire hospital? What exactly are you trying to do?”My voice came out hoarse, as though I had to force every word out. “She reported me. She stole my paper. She cornered me in a hallway and tried to pressure me into resigning, but I am the one

The morning handoff was scheduled for eight o’clock. I arrived at seven thirty. There were already people in the office.Kenneth sat at a computer writing patient charts. When he saw me walk in, his hand jerked and the mouse fell to the floor.“Dr... Dr. Britton.”I did not look at him. I walked straight to my workstation.June’s things still occupied my space.I moved the cardboard box onto the desk and began taking out my belongings, one item at a time.“Olivia.”June’s voice came from behind me.I turned around.She stood in the doorway of the office. Her voice was shrill. “Who gave you permission to touch my things?”“This is my workstation,” I said.“But…”“The computer you’re using. The login password was set by me. Did you change it? You didn’t, because you can’t. The administrator privileges belong to me.”Other members of the department clocked in one by one. They stopped at the entrance, watching the scene unfold. June’s expression darkened for a second.Then

My mother sounded surprised. “Why are you asking about her all of a sudden?”“Nothing. I just wanted to confirm something.”I ended the call.June stared at me, her lips parting slightly.“Your mother’s name is Sarah Wyck, right?”The color drained from her face.“How do you know that?”“I know more than just your mother’s name. I also know that my mother paid for your mother’s graduate degree. My father paid the tuition for every school you have ever attended, from the very first to the last.”The entire department fell into dead silence.June’s face turned livid. Her voice turned shrill. “You’re lying!”“Ask your mother whose name is on the deed of the house she lives in and whose account pays for the winter resort hotel rooms she stays in every year.”June’s chest heaved violently. Her phone slipped off the desk and hit the floor. The screen lit up with a new message coming from her own mother.[June, actually, Dr. Guzman is your father. He wants to acknowledge you publ

Chapter 8

The day Tom was set to publicly acknowledge his daughter arrived soon.Tom stood at the podium in the auditorium, dressed in a perfectly pressed white shirt. The gold cufflinks at his wrists were catching the light.My mother had bought those for him during a business trip to Malino.June stood behind him. She was wearing a brand-new dress that made her look especially radiant. Her hair was pinned up, exposing a pair of pearl earrings.Those belonged to my mother, too.Her gaze swept across the audience. When she found me, a provocative smile spread across her face.The hospital leadership sat in the first row. Stephen Rhys, the deputy director, flipped through the agenda in front of him with a faint look of confusion.He probably could not understand why a department head would go to such lengths just to publicly introduce his intern.Nearly everyone had arrived.Tom cleared his throat and adjusted the microphone closer to his lips.“Colleagues, thank you all for coming. I a

June’s eyes were bloodshot.“You watched me act smug and show off. I must’ve looked like a clown to you.”“I did think you were a clown.” I told her what I really thought. “But not because you’re an illegitimate daughter. It was because you thought that being his daughter meant you could inherit what belonged to him. What does he even have for you to inherit? He owns nothing himself.”June stumbled backward, looking completely dazed.I stood up and walked past her.In the moment we passed each other, her voice came out hoarse, laced with resentment. “But he chose me.”I paused.“That’s right. He chose you.”I turned my head and looked at her stricken face.“But have you ever thought about why he didn’t choose me? Because he can’t give me what my mother can. He’s just a man who’s afraid of everything despite wanting it and ends up keeping nothing. He didn’t choose me because my mother is too strong, and he can’t control her. He chose you because you are weak. You are easy to co

Chapter 10

At the start of the new quarter, the hospital issued an official notice.June was formally disciplined for violating medical protocols and committing academic misconduct. Her internship was terminated immediately.The people in the department also changed. Kenneth requested a transfer to another department. Before he left, he came to apologize to me. He stood in front of me, rubbing his hands together, saying a great many things. He said that he had lost his judgment back then.He said that June had been very good at manipulating people.I kept myself busy organizing the medication inventory, lining up the boxes one by one. By the end, his voice grew quieter and quieter. In the end, he just sighed and walked away.The new doctors were very young. When they first arrived in the department, their eyes carried all the hope and nervousness that a place like this inspired.One young woman stood timidly at the entrance on her first day. She called me “Dr. Britton.”I was reminded of t
