The crisp, explosive crack of the slap echoed through the hall.
Raelynn's palm stung and trembled from the force.
She was consumed by absolute fury.
She couldn't care less about the optics right now.
This was a human life!
Seraphina's technique was entirely wrong for the symptoms, yet she was physically blocking the correct treatment. What she was doing was practically murder.
The crowd consisted entirely of medical professionals, but they were mostly surgeons, researchers, and academic professors. Experts in specialized or alternative medicine techniques were incredibly rare here.
In other words, very few people in this room knew how to stabilize this specific crisis without machines.
Raelynn was the only one who could use specialized techniques for immediate, equipment-free stabilization.
The golden window for intervention was slipping away by the second.
Every doctor in the room knew it.
Seraphina froze in sheer shock, her hand trembling as she touched her numb, burning cheek. The surrounding crowd stared in dead silence, their eyes filled with complex emotions.
She had just been slapped across the face by Raelynn.
In front of nearly a hundred of the industry's most elite figures?
She was utterly astounded.
How dared Raelynn strike her?!
"Let her try."
Sebastian's voice cut through the tension. He stood nearby, his eyes fixed quietly on Raelynn's furious face. She always had a sharp tongue, but seeing her explode into genuine, physical rage was incredibly rare.
Seraphina felt the weight of a hundred gazes pressing down on her.
The humiliation was suffocating, making the sting on her cheek burn even hotter.
Her chest heaved with toxic rage. She shot Raelynn a vicious glare before stepping aside with a sarcastic sneer.
Fine. Let's see how Raelynn makes an absolute fool of herself!
When Dr. Hayes had collapsed, Seraphina had been shocked, but her first instinct had been pure opportunism. Realizing this was her golden ticket to forge an unbreakable bond with the Yves family—especially with Leo currently exiled—she had rushed in without hesitation.
