Chapter - 80 - Wet chicken

Gianna forced her body to turn away from the patient when she knew she would be in contact with the rod and fell to the floor with a heavy thud. Thankfully, Gianna was always quick to react to such situations. Michael just entered the ER and only saw Gianna lying on the floor. Zane was standing far from her, so he couldn't reach her at the right time and could only watch her fall.

Kristen didn't expect Gianna to fall and stood frozen in her place with her eyes opened widely. It all happened so quickly. When the audience realized what had occurred, they all let out a sigh of relief. The staff was relieved because if Gianna had fallen on the iron rod, the patient would have been in great danger, but Gianna's quick action saved the patient. Gianna slowly sat up and stared at the floor to recollect her thoughts.

"Are you alright?" Gianna looked up and saw Michael crouching in front of her with his right hand held out. Gianna nodded her head and took his hand to stand up from the floor. Michael held her in his arms and asked in a low tone, "Are you sure you are fine?" Gianna took in a few deep breaths and left his embrace. "Do you want to play with the patient's life just because you are jealous of Dr.G?" shouted Ralph standing in front of Kristen. Kristen looked at him blankly and slowly came to her senses.

"Dr.G praised how talented and efficient you are in your field. She also encouraged us to be like you, but I am happy to realize earlier that you are such a disappointment!" Ralph then looked at Gianna and said, "I don't want to be the best doctor if I am supposed to be like her. I want to be a doctor like you, Dr.G, who only wants to save the patient's life." The staff couldn't believe their ears and looked at Dr.Ralph with admiration because he was fearless to speak his mind about Dr.Kristen's mistake.

"How dare a resident raise his voice at me?" asked Kristen, who was embarrassed to the core. "Dare? Please, Dr.Kristen. We are not in the mood to listen to your jokes." Some staff giggled hearing Ralph's comment, and Kristen's blood drained from her face due to embarrassment. "Dr.G, you are bleeding!" shouted a nurse, standing beside Gianna. Zane and Ralph moved quickly to her side to examine her. Gianna's energy was completely drained after the fall, and couldn't focus on anything around her.

Zane rolled her sleeves slowly after making her sit on the nearby bed. The stitches were torn from the pressure of the fall, and the wound was reopened. Gianna slowly regained her senses as she saw blood from the reopened wound and looked at the patient. Gianna reached for her phone and called Dr.Jason's number.

"Yes, Dr. Gianna." "There is a patient with an open decompressed skull fracture. Can you perform the surgery, Dr.Jason? I am not in a condition to perform surgery." Jason felt uneasy knowing she couldn't perform the surgery because Gianna had never handed any case over to him. "Prepare the operating room." "Thank you, Dr. Jason. Victor will be there to assist you." Gianna hung up the call and said, "Inform the operating room about the change and quickly take the patient." Zane assured Ralph that he would take care of Dr.G. Ralph and the nurses quickly rushed with the patient as his wound on the chest was sealed.

Gianna drank water and looked at her reopened wound. "Gianna, I never knew you were such a great actress. When did you pick up acting lessons?" asked Kristen. The people in the ER were disappointed by her actions and started murmuring among themselves. "Kristen, stop. Have you gone crazy?" asked Michael. Kristen laughed loudly and asked, "Why? Are you hurt seeing your beloved darling bleeding?"

Zane paused and glared at Kristen. "Are you also worried about her? Dr.Zane, how can you also fall under her dirty spell?" Kristen smacked her lips and looked at Gianna. "When will you stop craving such lame attention?" Gianna couldn't bear her nonsense talk anymore and slowly walked toward her with narrowed eyes.

Everyone was curious to see Gianna's furious reaction, but instead, they just saw Gianna whispering something to Kristen. They all could clearly notice the changes in Kristen's expression. Kristen suddenly felt her body becoming numb and took a few steps back. She looked at Gianna in shock and quickly ran away from the ER.

Zane slowly pulled her back and continued tending her wound in silence. Everyone was curious to know about the matter that Dr.G whispered to Kristen, which made Dr.Kristen run away like a wet chicken but didn't dare to ask her directly. Zane completed bandaging her wound and said, "Why don't you take a scan?" Gianna looked at him questioningly. "I saw your head hitting the floor. Not only that, you looked lost earlier. You might have a concussion." Gianna smiled and said, "I will be alright if I rest. Don't worry! I will leave now."

Gianna directly went to the resting room and called Alice before lying down. "Dr.G! Where are you?" "I am going to rest for some time, so wake me up if there are any emergencies." "Dr.G, are you hurt?" "I am fine. Don't worry. I feel tired." Gianna hung up the call and fell asleep as soon as she lay down. The surgery was successful, and Dr.Henry summoned the residents to his office.

"What happened in the ER?" asked Dr.Henry in a serious tone. Ralph narrated the whole incident without omitting a detail. Everyone in the room was so agitated by Dr.Kristen's foolish act. "Where is Gianna, now?" asked the chief. "Dr.Zane informed me that the stab wound stitches were torn, and she also had a mild concussion. She has been resting in the resting room for the past 4 hours," informed Alice.

Dr.Jason was worried, and millions of methods to torture Kristen flashed through his mind. 'How dare that b**** hurt my angel! You will reap what you sowed, Kristen!' thought Dr.Jason. "Okay. You can all leave the room," informed Dr.Henry.
