Chapter 59: Karma Chapter 59: Karma “Are you done?” Somto’s tone was icy, almost dismissive.

“…” The dismissive tone!

“No, I’m not done yet!” Ikenna shot back, his temper flaring.

“I know you have this thing about doing everything your way, but if you’re pulling me into this, then you need to start listening to my advice.

I’m serious, Somto.

Either you take what I’m saying seriously, or take her to another hospital.

I don’t have time for more work.

I’m not a psychiatrist yet.” The tension in his voice was unmistakable, and the ultimatum hung heavy in the air like a storm waiting to break.

“You want to kick her out?” Somto’s voice remained calm, but the weight of his words carried through the line, each one precise and deliberate.

His tone sharpened slightly as he continued, “The girl you stitched up yourself when she came in with that deep wound on her head from falling down the stairs?

The girl you’ve been keeping an eye on, almost obsessively, for six whole months?

The same girl who trusted you so much she came to you, not me, when she needed help to go somewhere?” Somto’s words grew more pointed, his calm exterior cracking just enough to reveal the simmering frustration beneath.

“You didn’t even hesitate to protect her today.

More than ten armed men.

Very high chance of intense gunfire.

You could’ve left her.

You didn’t know they were my men, but you still didn’t abandon her even though you could have died.

And sure, you’ll say it’s because I asked you to care for her, but let’s not pretend that’s all it is now.” The silence on the line was thick, almost suffocating.

“Ikenna,” Somto’s voice softened, but there was no mistaking the undercurrent of accusation.
