NovelReadingChapter 710:
The woman, her piercing eyes locked on Belinda, stood tall and imposing, her tone sharp.
“Toby's situation is different,” Belinda replied calmly, her demeanor unwavering.
The woman scoffed. “Don’t act like | don’t know. Toby was transferred to the Grand...”
Plains General Hospital because of your connections. That's why you let him switch to Dr. Ortiz’s care. But since
we don’t have that kind of connection with you, of course, you're not willing to help us!”

Belinda straightened, her expression betraying no reaction to the woman's sharp demands and accusations. She
began to speak, her tone calm and measured.
“Toby has been in the hospital for only a few days. A change in doctors at this stage won't significantly impact
his treatment. Your father, however, has been under my care for nearly a month, and his surgery is scheduled in
less than ten days. I've already developed a detailed surgical plan for him, taking his complex condition into
account. Bringing in a new doctor now would create unnecessary complications—for both your father and the
incoming doctor, who wouldn't be as familiar with his medical history as | am. You—"

“Dr. Ortiz, your move this twas absolutely brilliant!” Kylee exclaimed, grinning broadly as she gave Turner a
thumbs-up.
Turner's lips curled into a smug grin, his satisfaction practically radiating from him. It had been ridiculously easy
for him to deal with Belinda. With just a small trick, he had her flustered and frustrated.
“Now, all of her patients are asking to transfer to your care. If they approach you directly, will you take them?”
Kylee asked.
Turner smiled. “As long as Belinda approves, I'll accept as many as want to come. If she refuses, that’s her issue
to deal with, not mine. | won't be the one offending anyone.”
Kylee’'s smile widened. “That's right! Belinda has beca laughingstock now. The Grand Plains General
Hospital has never seen patients demand to change their attending physician before. Belinda is facing a difficult
situation.” She chuckled, reveling in the situation.
