Series 11
“Wait!” Suddenly, an urgent cry from a woman made Wren stop. “Excuse me, are you a physician? Don’t act so recklessly! Can you be held accountable if something happens to the man?” Scarlet’s voice sliced through the tense atmosphere.
Wren momentarily hesitated and then turned to face Scarlet with a cold stare. “Be quiet. Your interruptions aren’t required when I’m trying to save a life.”
“You!” Scarlet, startled by the scolding, was about to respond when Edith stepped forward.
“Alexander! Keep your friend in check!” Edith’s manner was both icy and commanding. “If her actions delay the treatment of Edward and something happens to him, I won’t let her off easily!”
Alexander stayed silent, merely casting a frigid glance at Scarlet.
The chill in his stare sent a shiver through Scarlet, silencing her.
She clenched her teeth tightly, not daring to speak again.
At that moment, Joshua spoke up to the crowd, “Wren is soon to join the Cardiac Surgery Division at Grand Plains General Hospital. Should anything go awry, the Thomas family will assume responsibility. Any other objections?”
This announcement shocked everyone present.
