Chapter 407
That's exactly why she decided to study medicine.
Dr. Scarlett glanced around and lowered her voice, "Andrea is a relative of Director Clement, and even Andrea isn't willing to take on Team A. What does that tell you? It means this is fundamentally a gamble! If that girl really had what it takes, do you think Andrea would pass up such an opportunity?"
Susie, with her study abroad experience and connections to Director Clement, always liked to stand out.
Whenever there was a good opportunity at the hospital, it never seemed to reach anyone else!
Abbey responded, "Maybe the doctors got it wrong, who knows?"
Dr. Scarlett sighed in resignation, "Abbey, why won't you listen? Even though the patient's family has signed a waiver, it's still a life we're talking about here. If something goes wrong, and they decide to blame you, what then? Our profession doesn't tolerate any blemishes! Abbey, think this through carefully."
Abbey replied earnestly, "Dr. Scarlett, rest assured, I've prepared myself for failure! I'm willing to take this risk."
Success belongs to those who dare to act, failure to those who hesitate. Life is a gamble after all.
Dr. Scarlett frowned, "You're playing with your future, you know?"
Abbey glanced at her watch, "I'm running out of time, I won't keep you. I'm off to see Ms. Yeager downstairs."
Watching Abbey's departing figure, Dr. Scarlett let out a sigh.
The other doctors in the department watched with a mix of anticipation for failure and envy.
"Abbey's being foolish! Taking on a case everyone else is avoiding! She'll regret it sooner or later!"
"She must be desperate for fame, believing in some young girl's baseless claims!"
"If the surgery fails, who knows how the patient's family will react!"
"I heard they signed a waiver."
"What's a waiver worth in the face of a human life?"
"Exactly! Abbey might not recover from this."
No one believed Anthea could cure cancer.
They were all waiting to see Abbey and Anthea fail.
But Abbey wasn't bothered by their opinions.
All she had to do was give her best.
Soon after, Abbey reached Tanya's room.
The room was quiet, most of the patients were asleep.
Tanya and Lizzie were playing a game.
Abbey whispered, "Sorry to interrupt, is Ms. Yeager here?"Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
"Annie went to the restroom, just wait a bit," Tanya looked up briefly.
"Sure," Abbey nodded.
Shortly after, the restroom door opened.
A slender figure emerged, a baseball cap shadowing her face.
Seeing Anthea, Tanya quickly said, "Annie, this doctor is looking for you."
"Are you Ms. Yeager?" Abbey approached Anthea.
Anthea nodded, "Yes, how can I help you?"
Abbey extended her hand, "Hi, Ms. Yeager, I'm Abbey, the leader of am A. I'll be assisting you.

"I'm Anthea," she shook Abbey's hand, "Pleased to work with you."
"Same here."
Abbey continued, "Ms. Yeager, let me show you to our makeshift office."
Anthea nodded, said a quick goodbye to Tanya and Lizzie, and followed Abbey.
The office was temporary but decently equipped.
After a quick tour, Anthea asked, "Do you use any messaging apps?"
"Yeah," Abbey nodded.
Anthea took out her phone, "Let's exchange contacts."
"Sure," Abbey took out her phone, "I'll add you."

After adding each other, Anthea said, "I'll head back now, organize some things, and send you what I need
though the app."
"Alright, Ms. Yeager."
Returning to the room, Anthea grabbed her backpack, "Lizzie, it's getting late. Let's head back."
Lizzie, just finishing a game, nodded, "Oh, okay."
Anthea then asked, "Where's Tanya?"
"In the restroom."

As soon as she finished speaking, Tanya emerged, and Anthea turned to her, "Tanya, Lizzie and I are heading out. Take care and don't worry too much. I'll come by tomorrow. Trust me, you'll be on your feet in no time."
"Okay," Tanya nodded, "I believe in you, Annie."
Tanya truly trusted Anthea. She knew Anthea was different.
Leaving the hospital, Lizzie asked Anthea, "Annie, are you really sure you can cure Tanya's illness?"
