Chapter 1458:
“Alright, you can put them down now,” Belinda said, nodding. She then said, “Mrs. Dury, Miss Dury, let’s talk in the conference room tomorrow.”
With that, she left Barbara’s hospital room, joined by Caiden and Turner.
Back in her office, Belinda began reviewing Barbara’s latest medical reports.
In Kylee’s room, Zaria sat across from Kylee.
“What? Caiden suggested Belinda as your cousin’s attending physician?”
Kylee gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief as she processed the news.
“Yes,” Zaria said with a nod.
Kylee’s face twisted in skepticism. “Is Caiden out of his mind? Belinda’s abilities don’t hold a candle to my mentor’s. It’s not even close!”
After a pause, she continued, “You have to convince your aunt not to go with Belinda. She needs to choose my mentor. Honestly, my mentor’s medical skills are far better than Belinda’s.”
Zaria sighed, exasperated. “I tried saying that to my aunt, but my father said it’s her call, so I couldn’t press further.”
Kylee let out a frustrated huff. “Let me be clear—Belinda only got into Grand Plains General Hospital because of Caiden’s influence. And you know who her husband is. Mr. Clark’s influence must have played a huge role in that, too. Caiden is probably getting some kind of perk from Mr. Clark, which explains why he’s so keen to recommend Belinda. But this time, he has crossed a line! He’s gambling with a patient’s health! Zaria, you must persuade your aunt not to make a rash choice.”
Zaria’s brow creased slightly. “I heard Belinda achieved a perfect score on the hospital’s entrance exam, the highest ever recorded.”
At this, Kylee’s face clouded with a mix of resentment and envy.
Her eyes flickered before she sighed, adopting a tone of resignation.
“Honestly, I didn’t want to say this, but since it’s about your cousin’s life, I feel obligated to speak up,” she said, her voice heavy with feigned concern. “I’ve always suspected Belinda cheated on that exam with Caiden’s help.”

“Cheated?” Zaria’s eyes widened in shock. “That’s… not possible, is it?”
Kylee said, “Why not? With Mr. Clark’s influence, what couldn’t he accomplish? Think about it—no one in the hospital’s history has ever gotten a perfect score on that exam! Not even top scholars with advanced degrees. How could Belinda, with just a bachelor’s degree, manage it?”
Zaria fell quiet, her face pensive.
Kylee pursed her lips for a moment. “Belinda and I were in the same university before, same major. Back then, her grades were awful. She almost failed to graduate! So for her to suddenly ace the entrance exam and land a spot at Grand Plains General Hospital? I’m not convinced. That’s why you need to urge your aunt to consider this matter carefully.”
Zaria’s expression grew more solemn as Kylee’s words sank in.
Zaria turned to Kylee, her voice soft but steady. “Thank you for telling me all this, Kylee. I will head back to Grand Plains General Hospital tonight and let my aunt know everything you shared.”
Kylee gave a quiet nod, her tone cautious. “Alright, but make sure you do not mention that any of this came from me.”
