She Made a Comeback as a Renowned Doctor - Chapter 229

had rushed to the hospital, and Aurora Wood had already been taken into the ICU ward.

Mother Wood was accompanying he r inside, while Vice Chancellor Wood stood outside
with a vacant look in his eyes, his shoulders slumped and his temples had gone gray
overnight.
Hope Williams walked over quickly, instinctively quieting her footsteps, and stood for a
while before she spok e, “Vice Chancellor Wood…”
The towering figure moved slightly before he turned his head, “Doctor Williams, you’re
here.”
Hope Williams pursed her lips, “Aurora?”
“She’s in a vegetative state and not out of danger yet,” Vice Chancellor Wood said, as if
thos e few words exhausted all his strength.
Vegetative state!
Hope Williams’s hands, hanging by her sides, clenched instantly.
How could this be.
The lively girl who was just in front of her that morning, had become a vegetative state
in a mere few hours.
Hope Williams’s heart trembled, and she could not accept this outcome no matter what.
“How could this happen?”
“She fell down the stairs, sustaining a severe head injury. By the time she was found,
she had already lost a lot of blood. That she was saved during surgery was already a
miracle…” Vice Chancellor Wood’s voice broke increasingly, ending in sobs.
His perfectly fine daughter had suddenly turned into a vegetative state, how could he as
a father accept this.
Fell down the stairs!
Hope Williams’s brows fur rowed deeper, under what circumstance could an adult
walking properly down the stairs fall and turn into a vegetative state!
The reason was too far - fetched.
Even if it were to happen, the likelihood was too low.
“Through our investigation, we have confirme d that your daughter fell down the stairs by
herself,” said the police officer who came to investigate.

Michael Wood could not believe that Aurora Wood fell down the stairs for no reason,
and had reported the incident, but obviously, the investigation resu lts were not
acceptable to him.
“Impossible,” Michael Wood glared, roaring, “I performed the surgery myself, the scars
on the back of my daughter’s head are enough to prove that her head was hit more than
once. This matter is definitely not that simple. A physically able adult wouldn’t just fall
down the stairs for no reason, I cannot let my daughter lie there, I must investigate
thoroughly.”
Hope Williams’s gaze deepened, if going by what Michael Wood said, someone was out
to harm Aurora Wood.
But Aurora W ood had no enemies in the hospital.
Hope Williams’s gaze shifted and she saw a familiar figure walking towards them, Ellie
Field with red eyes came over with a policewoman.
The policewoman shook her head and reported to the male officer, “We have already
a sked, this duty doctor also didn’t see any suspicious person, and the surveillance has
been checked, no one else was seen in the footage.”
Ellie Field bit her lip, choking up, “I was on duty today, I heard a noise in the stairwell,
went to check and just s aw Doctor Wood lying on the ground, no one else around…”
Ellie Field looked towards Vice Chancellor Wood and walked over worriedly asking,
“Vice Chancellor Wood, how is Doctor Wood doing?”
Vice Chancellor Wood wiped the tears from the corner of his eyes, c lenching his teeth
and shaking his head, “She’s still not out of danger, and… in a vegetative state, afraid
she might never wake up in this lifetime.”
He knew the situation best as he had performed the surgery himself.
A hint of a smile darted across Ellie Field’s eyes unnoticeably, yet her expression was
filled with immense sorrow.
Vice Chancellor Wood took a couple of deep breaths, “But… thank you, child, if it
weren’t for you, our Aurora this time…” Vice Chancellor Wood trembled, unable to finish
his wor ds.
Ellie Field’s face was filled with sorrow as she shook her head, “Vice Chancellor Wood,
if I had discovered it sooner, seen Doctor Wood earlier, perhaps her condition would
have been much better than it is now.”

Hope Williams’s eyes narrowed, her gaze tightly fixed on Ellie Field. Ellie Field noticing
Hope Williams’s gaze, looked back and in that moment their eyes met, she averted her
eyes.
The best feigned panic still has its flaws.
A trace of suspicion arose in Hope Williams’s heart.
Leaving the hospi tal, Hope Williams was restless, this matter was definitely not as
simple as it seemed, and she vaguely felt that Ellie Field was involved, yet she had no
evidence.
Seeing Hope Williams come out, Waylon Lewis drove the car over.
“How’s your friend doing?” Waylon Lewis asked flatly.
Hope Williams pursed her lips, exhaled a murky breath, her eyes full of distress, “Not
good, fell down the stairs, sustained a severe head injury, vegetative state…”
Noticing that Hope Williams’s mood was very low, Waylon Lewis f urrowed his brows,
“Has the culprit been caught?”
Hope Williams’s brow twitched uncontrollably, she couldn’t help but look up at Waylon
Lewis, “Do you also think it was deliberate?”
Waylon Lewis turned his head and gave her a serious look, analyzing, “A fu lly - abled
adult falling down the stairs and becoming a vegetable?” Waylon Lewis shook his head
and chuckled lightly, “That’s too unlikely, isn’t it?”
Indeed.
It’s unbelievable when said aloud.
Hearing Waylon Lewis say this, Hope Williams was even more cert ain that the matter
couldn’t be so simple.
Hope Williams furrowed her brows.
Waylon Lewis looked deeply into her eyes, “Don’t frown.”
Hope Williams turned her head to look at him.
“You being upset hurts me,” Waylon Lewis said with intensity in his eyes, “E ven though
she is your friend, and I sympathize with her situation, I don’t want to see you sad over
anything as your husband. It pains me.”

Hope Williams’ heart fluttered, and she lowered her head without speaking, afraid that
speaking would only make her more vulnerable.
Waylon Lewis slowed the car and tenderly rubbed Hope Williams’ head with one hand,
comforting her, “You’re tired today too. Go home and get a good sleep. Let’s not worry
about other things, okay?”
Hope Williams stayed silent for a while, then sighed deeply and nodded.
The wind carried a hint of chill on Hope Williams’ lovely face as cars and people bustled
outside in the vibrant city.
Aurora Wood, only twenty - five, lay in a cold hospital bed at her best age, her body filled
with tubes, rel iant on machines and a respirator to survive.
How could Hope Williams not feel heartache?
The next day, Hope Williams got up early and drove straight to the hospital. The
incident with Aurora Wood had caused quite a stir, with continuous private discussion s
among everyone.
But there were always suspicions that Aurora Wood had accidentally fallen down the
stairs herself.
Hope Williams was busy all morning. After lunch, just as she was about to take her
surgical plans and medical papers to Director Woods, she opened her drawer and
narrowed her eyes.
Before she could think further, a nurse came over and said, “Doctor Williams, Director
Woods is asking for you in the conference hall.”
Hope Williams knitted her brow and picked up her surgical plans and medical pa pers
towards the conference hall.
Not only Director Woods and several vice - chancellors were there, but Elder Murphy and
several esteemed senior doctors from the cardiology department were also present.
Of course, Ellie Field was already seated, her eyes dr opping a hint of provocation
understood only between them.
There were two ballot boxes on the U - shaped conference table.
Hope Williams walked over calmly. Before she sat down, an old doctor from the hospital
spoke up, “Director Woods, I think the outcome i s already decided, voting is redundant.
We all think there’s nothing wrong with Cynthia’s paper or surgical plan. Such a surgical
scheme…”

Doctor Johnson paused, then laughed, “I’m afraid even several of us combined couldn’t
come up with it. It can be desc ribed as perfect, Cynthia is truly talented, and this
medical paper really makes us feel inferior.”
Ellie Field nodded and smiled, “You flatter me.”
“No, no, not at all, you’re being modest, Cynthia. Being so young and yet so profound,
your future is bound less.”
“Yes, Director Woods, I also think the outcome is decided. The chief surgery should
undoubtedly be conducted by Cynthia, and since we’ve not yet decided on a head for
our cardiology department, why not take this opportunity to vote for that as well? ”
“I agree with Doctor Thompson’s suggestion. I vote for Cynthia, she truly deserves the
position of the department head.”
“I concur, I too vote for Cynthia. I believe no one is more suited to be the head of this
department than her.”
The senior cardiologi sts unanimously supported her, even Elder Murphy raved about
Ellie Field’s surgical plans, openly expressing their views.
Director Woods, however, held the surgical plans in his hand and pondered deeply.
Hope Williams stood still and did not sit down. She lifted her surgical plans from the
table, and the moment she flipped them open, her expression turned cold.
Then she picked up the medical paper, glanced at it mockingly, and with a snap, tossed
her own documents onto the table.
Director Woods scanned Elli e Field with anger - filled eyes, then looked toward Hope
Williams, who smiled helplessly.
At that moment, Ellie Field spoke out, “Let’s not rush to conclusions. Let’s look at what
Doctor Williams has; she’s always been confident. Maybe her medical paper and
surgical plan are also good.”
Ellie Field watched Hope Williams, her eyes gleaming with viciousness and smugness.
Let’s see how you recover after being branded a plagiarist.
Ellie Field raised her chin and scoffed coldly.
She not only wanted to usurp her identity but also aimed to ruin her reputation and
disgracefully force her out of the hospital.

Hope Williams lowered her eyes and said, “Since the senior doctors have already
expressed their stance, let’s decide on the head of the department first. I have no
objections.”
