The Runaway Groom

Chapter 375

Judging from the photo she stumbled upon on Isaac’s desk, as well as the patient’s file she saw, Irene realized that the two seemingly unrelated events were actually inextricably connected.

She might be meeting the woman in question tomorrow, too…

In the past, she would not have eavesdropped about others.

However, this concerned Isaac, so she wanted to find out if the patient was Isaac’s mother.

And who was Mick Gooding? Why would he be so attached to her?

Also, his reluctance to let others find out about the patient meant that there was something fishy involved.

Making up her mind, she headed to Admin to finish her errand, and returned to Stephen’s office.

Stephen was not around, and she stood by his desk, hesitating for a moment before picking up the patient’s file

Opening the folder, she was stunned when she saw the note that Stephen had performed a craniotomy on the woman named Layla Gooding.

Craniotomy? But Stephen’s specialty was cardiovascular diseases!

Moreover, there was no record of Layla having any cranial medical conditions, only the procedure itself. And as Irene was about to read through the key points, she heard someone outside say, “Dr. Carr.”

That meant Stephen had returned, so she quickly put the file back where she found it and made sure it looked like it was not touched.

Then, she pretended to be idling and waited until Stephen entered, flashing a smile, “Dr. Carr. Where were you just now? Anyway, I’ve spoken to Admin–Dr. Lohan will be at the CT scan room tomorrow morning.”
