No More Waiting, She Chooses Love

Chapter 807

"The results are out. It wasn't the doctor's or the hospital's fault. Dr. Alfven is back on duty, but..." Fanny paused, "she's been transferred to another hospital."

No wonder I hadn't seen her these past few days. "Was she transferred because of the medical incident?"

"Yeah, even though the investigation showed the mother's death wasn't her fault, the public still thinks otherwise. They believe she died on Dr. Alfven's table, so it must be her mistake," Fanny shook her head in frustration. "Rumors can be lethal, you know. Gossip can drown you."

Fanny was expressing sympathy for Dr. Alfven, but I knew she was speaking from her own experiences too. She'd also faced misunderstandings from families over

the years.

"My dear Fanny, you've been through so much," I said, holding her hand.

She gave a bittersweet smile. "Who hasn't, really? Everyone thinks they've endured life's bitterness, unaware of the myriad ways it presents itself. What we endure is just a tiny piece of the whole."

On the day of the funeral, a light rain began to fall, as if the heavens themselves were mourning.

Fanny and I arrived at the Wagner residence, where a line of cars stretched along both sides of the street.
