Falling For My Mysterious Wife by Cassidy Alfaro novel Chapter 5

Chapter 5

Get Boyton

“Mr. Halton, it’s not your fault that you aren’t familiar with the ‘Physician Act’. According to the ‘Physician Act’, medical practitioners shall practice within the scope of their practice and the place where they are registered for practice. My registration place is Northwestern Memorial Hospital. You know where I’m going with this, right?” she explained a lot, which was rare. She only said this much for the patient’s sake.

“So, you can’t go to the private hospital for surgery?” he asked.

“No.” She had no interest in ruining her career as a doctor because of this.

Jalen fell silent. Obviously, he had little knowledge of the “Physician Act”. He was now very hesitant.

“If there is nothing else, I’ll get back to work. Mr. Halton, you should make plans early.” Elaina saw the hesitation on Jalen’s face, and she knew that the reason why he did not want to transfer Marie here was because of his distrust of Northwestern Memorial Hospital’s equipment and conditions.

She thought, well then. Suit yourself.

Elaina disappeared from Jalen’s line of sight. After that, Graham came over to Jalen. “Mr. Halton, did Dr. Gainsford agree to operate on Ms. Dunston?”

Jalen shook his head. He thought, well, it wasn’t about her, really. It was me that couldn’t make up my mind.

Graham did not know what Jalen was thinking. He was slightly surprised. “People all say that famous doctors are weirdos. I guess it’s true.”

He thought, Mr. Halton is here personally to invite her, yet she turns him down. It seems that she is something.

Women are the hardest to deal with.

After the incident yesterday, the staff of the hospital treated Elaina differently. They stopped looking down upon her. Also, the patients weren’t as resistant as before when they knew that Elaina was the surgeon who operated.

Elaina had three surgeries in one day. Those who helped her during the surgeries were exhausted.

On the contrary, Elaina was still energetic. She was even like a machine that never got tired….

“Are there any more surgeries today?” Elaina asked Joyce, who was behind her.

“No.” Joyce shook her head. The Neurosurgery Department of Northwestern Memorial Hospital wasn’t very developed, so they didn’t have many patients.

However, Joyce had a hunch. Everything would change because of Elaina’s arrival.

“Dr. Gainsford, I’m sorry for my slight. You’re the best neurosurgeon I’ve ever seen,” said a doctor aside, his eyes full of admiration.

“And the most driven as well,” said another doctor with a wry smile.

Elaina smiled and glanced at them, “Beaten already? I once had six operations a day without a break.”

Hearing that, everyone gave her a thumbs-up.

Brain surgery was notoriously long. What was more, there were countless nerves in the brain, and surgeons needed to be on high alert at all times. One surgery was exhausting enough, not to mention six.

They did not even dare to imagine.

They thought, why is he here again?
