Chapter 520 The Ultimate Evil Conspiracy

"Dexter's the top OB-GYN at Emerald City Harmony Hospital. He's the one who told me Emily went into early labor."

Before Michael could react, Candice quickly sensed something was off. "Wait, aren't you from Everglade City? How do you know an OB-GYN from Emerald City? And why would he call you instead of rushing to the hospital?"

Candice zeroed in on the key point. "Did you tell him about your relationship with Emily?"

Michael didn't like the sound of that.

To him, Emily and Archibald were just colleagues. What else could there be?

Why make it sound so intimate?

A surge of anger and possessiveness flared up inside him.

"I know him through my aunt Celeste. They're good friends. As for why he told me, I guess Celeste asked him to after he told her the situation."

"I rushed here from the studio and haven't had a chance to contact him again. I didn't expect him to be the one performing Emily's surgery. I thought there would be other doctors at Emerald City Harmony Hospital."

"Let me call him back."

In critical moments, everyone's mind seemed to go blank.

Even the usually cautious Archibald seemed wooden and stiff.

But Candice picked up on something useful.
