Loving Mom 265

Chapter 265

This was the treatment room. There weren’t any surveillance cameras here. Kelly could say whatever she wanted, and no one could refute her

Just then, Uriah, having finished seeing his patient, walked over. He heard Kelly’s explanation and responded coolly, “Oh? You grabbed the wrong bottle, and now it’s somehow my fault?”

Sharon said sharply, “If you didn’t know whether the bottle could be used or what was in it, couldn’t you ask? Did someone sew your mouth shut?” A thin smile tugged at the corners of her mouth.

Kelly lowered her head, eyes brimming with tears. “I’m sorry. I was being careless. I wasn’t paying attention.”

“Have you ever considered,” Sharon’s voice sliced through the air, her eyes sharp and unrelenting, “what your carelessness could have meant for the patient? For this clinic? That’s a human life we’re talking about. If someone had taken that medicine and something went wrong, Mr. Malcolm would be the one held responsible!”

By the time she finished, her tone had risen involuntarily, tinged with real anger. She was genuinely upset now.

She could tolerate Kelly selling her sob story, twisting the truth in front of Carter. But to endanger someone’s life out of jealousy and spite?

Unforgivable.

Kelly instinctively looked at Carter. His dark, fathomless eyes were already on her, sending a cold shiver through her spine.
