The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 834

Neil's lawyer certainly questioned that statement. "That's merely an excuse. Are you saying that the patient would have died if the surgery was not performed?"

Irene's lawyer in turn provided everything from physical evidence to material witness.

Ray Hall, one of the doctors in charge during the surgery, was willing to testify for Irene as well—that Dennis would have died if not for the surgery!

Even the initial diagnosis, the surgical process, and Dennis's medical history pointed to that.

"You may consult other specialists for a third-party opinion with these data to verify if Dennis Turner had faced mortality. But one way or another, it is clear that without said surgery, Mr. Turner would be dead."

Neil whispered something into his lawyer's ear then and the lawyer nodded before saying, "That may be the case, but was the surgery performed in adherence to regulations?"

The plaintiff had no comeback with the defendants' evidence and testimonies, so they could only repeatedly insist that Irene had broken regulations!

They were ignoring the outcome and kept coming after Irene, because Neil had messed up—he never tried to find out what happened.

All he knew was that Irene had decided to perform the surgery on her own and he vented his frustration on her.

But following her lawyer's dissection of the incident, Neil knew very well that his father would be dead instead of just being unconscious.

Even so, he refused to withdraw the lawsuit because he felt aggrieved and did not want to take this lying down.

He was the victim, but ended up beaten up by Irene's bodyguard!

Irene had no right, and he would see this lawsuit through to the end!

On the other hand, Irene did break regulations despite his intentions, and the court case entered a stalemate.

The court soon announced that they were adjourned for the day, to be resumed a week later!

Finn Crowe said, "If they still won't give in, I'll ask everyone from Hotmesh Research to come and prove it to you."

Irene shook her head. "It won't work."

The plaintiff only cared that she had broken regulations, not that she had saved Dennis!

And Irene could not argue against that.

"Let's go," she said, getting in her car.

"You should go on ahead, ma'am," her lawyer told her, and was not leaving with her.

Irene wound down the window to look at him and nodded. "Sure."

"I'll gather further evidence," he assured her.
