My Great Escape Led Me to You (Emily Blair) novel Chapter 656

Alex White took a step closer, his voice tight. “I’d like to know—what makes you question my medical skills?”

Who gave Emily Blair the nerve to doubt him?

Emily met his gaze calmly, flipping the question back at him. “So, you’re saying you always stick to your professional ethics?”

Alex’s expression darkened. “Emily Blair, are you serious? If you have doubts, show me some proof. Don’t just stand there throwing around baseless accusations.”

He glared at her, his tone cold. “You’re just as insufferable as you were five years ago—still no sense of boundaries.”

He was Alex White, after all. No matter how reckless or brash he might seem outside the hospital, when it came to medicine, he never cut corners. He owed that to his patients, and he took pride in his strict ethical standards.

His professors had often praised his dedication, his natural talent, and his unwavering responsibility toward every patient under his care.

Yet now, the very thing he prided himself on was being called into question by Emily Blair.

Alex was furious.

Absolutely furious.

He spun on his heel and stormed out.

Emily watched his broad shoulders disappear down the hallway, her suspicion confirmed.

Rose’s brow furrowed. “That’s it? That’s hardly anything.”

Emily was quiet for a moment, thinking. “But what if we can prove Isabella Austin ordered them to do it?”

The lawyer nodded. “That would change everything. If it was intentional, it’s a whole different crime—aggravated assault. As the mastermind, Isabella Austin would face a much harsher sentence than the doctors.”

Emily gave a small nod.

Rose’s face had gone pale. “So how are we supposed to prove she was behind it? We’ve got nothing. Are we supposed to steal her phone and hope there’s a text message spelling it all out?”
