Cherise paused, then nodded.

She had no idea how she and Isaac had become rivals.

“Isaac was once Ms. Lane’s most promising protégé.”

Lucy gestured toward the bracelets in the display case, casually glancing at Cherise, who was scanning the surroundings. “Weren’t you the one who received the only chance for a study abroad program from our hospital?” Lucy confirmed.

“If it hadn’t been for you, Isaac would have had that opportunity.”

“Your emergence was unexpected, and the fact that you could guide Isaac in surgery sets you apart. You’re not on the same level, so it was rightfully given to you.”
