Critical Case, My Husband Trusted an InternChapter 1

Mrs. Walker suddenly suffered a stroke and was rushed to St. Mary’s Medical Center.

My husband, Ethan Walker, a renowned neurologist, promised that he would personally treat her.

But the next moment, he handed his mother over to his clumsy intern, Lily Hart, and left her in charge.

He himself stayed in his office, editing Lily’s graduation thesis.

“Dr. Walker, during the thrombolysis, I accidentally gave two patients’ medication to one person,” Lily burst into tears as she ran in, her face pale with panic.

“Now the patient is experiencing a massive intracranial hemorrhage—what do I do?”

Ethan was silent for a moment, then gently wrapped his arms around her, comforting her patiently for over ten minutes before he finally walked over—slowly.

But by the time he arrived, my mother-in-law had already stopped breathing due to delayed treatment.

“Ethan, it was just a clot-busting procedure. How could Mom die from a brain hemorrhage?”

I grabbed his arm with trembling hands, my eyes bloodshot.

“There’s always a risk of bleeding with thrombolysis. Why are you making such a fuss?”

Ethan shook me off impatiently, his voice cold.
