Saving Her Life, Accused of Molestation
Chapter 1
While resuscitating a female patient, I hurriedly cut open her bra.
My fiancée, Sophia, actually posted a video of me performing chest compressions online:
"I know you were saving her, but doesn't the patient's privacy matter? And your hands kept touching her chest."
The incident quickly went viral.
The hospital leadership didn't defend me. Instead, they docked my entire year's bonus and demoted me.
Sophia also quickly climbed into bed with my rival.
I threw down my ID badge. Since my dedication to saving lives got me labeled a pervert, I might as well just stop trying.
I wouldn't save anyone anymore.
This time, the entire hospital panicked.
"Logan, this should be a lesson for you. We're getting married soon, and even if you're a doctor, you need to have morals!"
I looked at Sophia quietly.
"Are you done?"
She froze. "What—what kind of attitude is that?"
"Whatever." I rolled my eyes.
Sophia's face instantly flushed red, as if she'd been deeply insulted.
"Fine! Logan, we're breaking up!"
After screaming that, she grabbed her phone from the table and ran out.
The department director, Dr. Morrison, frowned and tapped the desk.
"To settle public opinion, you need to write a thorough self-criticism. You'll read it publicly next week and admit your behavior was inappropriate. This is an order, and also your chance to make things right."
The next day, the hospital intranet and bulletin board simultaneously posted a disciplinary notice about me.
The intern, Kevin, secretly messaged me.
"Logan, we all believe you. But just put up with it for now, Dr. Morrison is really angry."
I turned off my phone screen.
I knew Morrison was deliberately making things difficult for me. He wanted his nephew Ryan to take my attending physician position.
Sophia's little tantrum had given him the perfect excuse.
I returned to my workstation and silently turned on my computer.
I printed out all the files for the critical patients I was responsible for. Then I deleted all the data from the computer.
A week later, at the hospital conference.
Dr. Morrison stood on stage criticizing me.
"Given Dr. Logan Mitchell's unprofessional conduct, the hospital has decided to revoke his attending physician position."
The audience was dead silent.
"Now, let's give a warm round of applause to welcome our new cardiac surgery physician, Dr. Ryan Morrison!"
Ryan stood up smugly and nodded to everyone.
Dr. Morrison looked at him with satisfaction and announced:
"Starting today, Ryan will officially take over Logan's duties."
I sat in the corner, expressionless.
