Chapter 373 Finally Clearing Her Name (3)
Cynthia was taken aback and asked in confusion, "What does this have to do with that child?"
James chuckled lightly and said, "Unfortunately, that night, this little child was playing in the hallway."
Cynthia also laughed and said, "Seriously? Did you give that kid a few lollipops to help you frame me?"
At that moment, Sean walked over holding the child.
The little boy was holding a robot in his hands. He looked at Cynthia and said very politely, "Hello, Aunt Cynthia."
Cynthia put on a fake smile, patted his head, and said, "Hello, Colin."
Colin was the boy's nickname; everyone called him that.
Cynthia said discontentedly, "Mr. Kelly, Colin has congenital heart disease and is scheduled for surgery tomorrow. You brought him out today, but it's so cold outside. What if he catches a cold and gets an infection? Do his parents know?"
James coldly replied, "His parents are right outside. The car is parked at the door, and there's heating both inside and outside, so the child won't get cold. Ms. Wells, it seems you're not that irresponsible after all. Why don't you have the courage to admit to the mistakes you've made?"
Cynthia felt a bit panicked. Thinking about the deceased patient, she hadn't slept well for a while. But she absolutely couldn't admit it. Once she admitted it, it would be over!
She had struggled for so many years and finally secured her position at the best hospital in Ocean City. How could she let it all go to waste?
Cynthia avoided James's sharp gaze and said, "I don't understand what you're talking about. Bringing a child to testify against me is useless. Colin is only five years old. That's it, Mr. Kelly. I have things to do, so I'll be leaving now!"
"Wait!" James stopped her and walked towards Colin, gently saying, "Colin, can I play with your toy for a bit?"
"Okay, but be careful not to break it." Colin agreed and handed the robot to James very carefully.
Cynthia looked at them in bewilderment, not knowing what James intended to do.
James fiddled with the toy and said softly, "Ms. Wells, you probably don't know that Colin's father is a toy designer. This robot is a new product developed by their company. It has many functions, one of which is a recording function."
After saying that, James pressed a few buttons.
Soon, the robot's speaker played the voices of Jessica and Cynthia from that night.
Jessica urged, "Ms. Wells, you should go check on the patient in bed 20. He's complained of chest pain three times. I'm a bit worried!"
As soon as Jessica finished speaking, Cynthia's impatient voice came through, "Got it! Useless! You can't handle anything! I'll be right there!"
After hearing this, Cynthia felt weak all over, collapsed into a chair, and broke out in a cold sweat.
James returned the robot to Colin and had Sean take Colin out.
Cynthia's mind went blank, and she instinctively pleaded, "Mr. Kelly, please don't let this get out, okay? The hospital has finally decided not to pursue it, and Jessica is fine now. Can we just let this go, please?"
"Is it really fine?" James glared at her sharply and said, "You've cleared your name and are still the prestigious attending physician. But what did Jessica do wrong? Even if she stayed, her career would start with a bad reputation. Jessica values her integrity the most. So, I won't allow anyone to tarnish her name or leave a stain on her!"
