I Loved You in the Dark Until Someone Loved Me in the Light novel Chapter 129

York shot him a freezing glare, his eyes sharp enough to kill.

For the next entire week, York didn't show his face in front of Gillian once. There were no phone calls and no text messages.

It was as if he had completely vanished from her world. She thought to herself that this was actually for the best.

Life was finally peaceful, and the future felt hopeful again.

Hailey had been permanently removed from her research project. At the hospital, she was making constant mistakes, both big and small. Her colleagues were endlessly complaining about her, and several were threatening to file formal grievances with President Beaumont.

Not only was she utterly useless, but she was actively dragging everyone else down, turning an already stressful workload into total chaos.

Gillian also hadn't seen York dropping Hailey off or picking her up from work.

She couldn't help but wonder if the two of them had actually broken up.

After all, if Hailey had been treated like this in the past, York would have immediately stepped in to back her up. Who would have dared to say a single bad word about her then?

Today, Hailey was assigned to a pregnant patient. Because she failed to properly sterilize the area during an emergency procedure, the patient's incision became infected, leading to several severe complications. The pregnant woman was in agonizing pain.

Recovering from a C-section was already excruciating, and now she was enduring unnecessary torture. The patient's family was furious, pointing fingers directly at Hailey and screaming curses at her.

Gillian stepped in at that moment, fixing the mistakes and treating the patient's infected wound.

It wasn't because she was trying to play the saint. They worked in the same department, and the patient always came first. The woman was already suffering terribly; personal grudges had to take a backseat.

Being a doctor meant putting human lives above all else.

Her colleagues had finally reached their breaking point. Hailey was acting like a useless princess who did nothing but cause trouble. Someone leaked the entire incident online, posting a massive rant about her incompetence.
