Chapter 249:
Standing outside the door, he took out his phone and made a call.
“Today,” he said as soon as the call connected, “I ran into Belinda...”
He then proceeded to recount the events of the morning. When he was done, the person on the other end of the
line just laughed.
“Well, isn’t that convenient? Now, you don’t have to rack your brains to cup with excuses to get close to
Belinda.”
The man fell silent for a moment.
When he spoke again, his voice was low and raspy. “I don’t want to do it this way.”
This time, the person on the other end of the line fell silent.

But the silence didn’t last long.
“Amory, think about your mother.”
With that, the person ended the call.
Amory Blakely’s face darkened as he pocketed his phone.
A deep-seated anger suddenly flashed in his eyes.
He took several minutes to compose himself.
Then, he returned to the hospital room.

After finishing her work for the morning, Belinda finally got the chance to sit down and drink swater.
She took out her phone and checked it.
Her phone had kept buzzing in her pocket earlier, but she had been very busy with work and ignored it.
She found several missed calls and unread Whatmessages.
Confused, she decided to return Bethany’s call first. “What's up? Why did you call me?” Belinda asked when the
line connected.
“Belinda!” Bethany exclaimed. “You're on the news.
Not just the news, actually, you're also trending on social media! Everyone is raving about how you heroically
saved a person's life today.
You're amazing!”
Belinda was slightly caught off guard by this. “I was just doing my duty as a doctor.”

“True, but if it hadn’t been for you, a life would have been lost.
So, you're definitely a hero!” Bethany replied.
Belinda just chuckled and shook her head.
They chatted for a while before Belinda ended the call.
Then, she opened Whatand checked her messages.
Everyone who had texted her was talking about the sthing.
Before she knew it, Belinda found herself clicking on a news link to read the article about the incident.
The headline read, “The Most Beautiful and Heroic Doctor.”
The article detailed the events that had occurred that morning and included a photograph.
The picture showed Belinda performing CPR on the woman.
