A Rebirth of Flames Chapter 5
The argument inside the ward had gotten so bad that the people outside began gossiping."Say, Dr. Zalmer should let it slide since she's fine now. What could be more important than the future of her boyfriend?""If I were her, I would just tolerate the slight grievance of being left in the fire for someone else. After all, I'd get to enjoy a better life once Dr. Seager becomes more successful."Serena whipped her head around to thunder at those nosy onlookers outside. "Stop spewing unfounded nonsense! That's not what's happening. Mr. Zalmer will hold a formal interrogative meeting tomorrow. Let's see who'll eat their words tomorrow when the truth comes out!"Raiden had always ignored Serena, but just then, he finally looked her in the eye. He frowned, asking, "What are you talking about? What do you mean by 'interrogative meeting'?"Serena put both hands on her waist. She kept staring at Celia as she stated, "That's exactly what I said! Someone here also knows how the explosion ex

Dad came to check on me in the ward after wrapping up the urgent matters he had on hand. He had bloodshot eyes, and his beard was a scraggly mess. Concern and exhaustion showed on every inch of his face."Winifred… How did this… It hasn't been that long since I went abroad… How did this…" He was so choked up that he couldn't speak. His hand trembled as he caressed the bandage around my face. At the same time, his brows wrinkled with worry.I could no longer hold back my tears after seeing my dad, who seemed to have suddenly aged all at once. In my last life, I had wrongly placed my trust in Raiden. It caused the hospital run by my family, the Zalmers, for over ten years to end up in others' hands. We lost all our assets and wealth. My dad couldn't take that blow, so he fell gravely ill and died not long after.As for Raiden, he stepped on the destruction of my dad's life and my family's career to advance in the medical world. He became a newly revered figure in the industry.Ho

The executives looked at each other before avoiding my dad's eyes. Dad's face had darkened like coal as he flicked his hand, motioning Serena to do her part.Serena instantly switched on the big projector in the conference room.A high-quality footage soon filled the projector screen. It was none other than the laboratory's surveillance footage from before the explosion.All color drained from Celia's face. Her lips quivered as she shook her head fervently. "N-No! No way! Didn't the hospital explicitly prohibit us from installing surveillance cameras in the laboratory?"Dad shot her a glare. "This laboratory has always been a gift from me to my daughter! It's her personal laboratory, so why would I need to report to you if I installed any cameras in it?"Raiden's eyes grew wide as he whipped his head in my direction. "What…"I remained emotionless while speaking indifferently, saying, "Serena told you about it once."Tension filled the air just then, and the room was deadly si

That was when my dad uttered something to his phone.Shortly after, someone suddenly opened the conference room door. Dad's assistant came in with a solemn expression. Behind him was an ashen-faced upper-class woman.The woman's strict gaze scanned the conference room before landing on Celia. "Ms. Lumley? She's the Lumley family's heiress, huh?""M-Mrs. Lumley…" The executives shot to their feet at once. They then tremblingly stared at my dad while speaking. "We have to keep this private, Mr. Zalmer. Our hospital can't afford to lose Lumley Medical's support!""Yeah… See? Even Mrs. Lumley has come here in person…"Dad snorted, lit a cigarette, and took his time exhaling a smoke ring. "Take a good look, Mrs. Lumley. Is Celia your daughter?"When Celia heard the words "Mrs. Lumley", her face paled even more. She couldn't help but lower her head and quiver in fear, not daring to meet the wealthy woman's eyes.The woman eyed Celia from head to toe with disdain before scoffing. "My d

Celia's case was soon brought to court. She was ultimately sentenced to one year in prison, and her medical license was revoked. Even so, she was eventually released from prison early for good behavior.Raiden, on the other hand, was kicked out of our hospital by my dad. Other hospitals dared not hire him, either. He was once a decently well-known doctor, but he became a person that everyone despised.…My body mostly recovered a year later. I returned to work at the hospital after gaining Dad's approval. Little did I expect to see Raiden again on my first day back.Raiden seemed suspicious, wearing a cap and a mask as he entered the hospital.Serena's lips curled with annoyance. "Does he seriously think nobody will recognize him if he dresses up like that?"I froze in confusion, which caused Serena to inch closer and smirk. "You don't know, do you? He has that disease now." She snickered. "Our hospital's the best when it comes to treating that, so he has no choice but to come

A loud crash filled the air as a cabinet slammed onto my body. It hurt so badly that I awoke from my unconscious state.I had no time to worry about the sharp pains all over my body. I tried hard to figure out what was happening in front of me. Yet, the dense smoke in the air choked me and left me unable to open my eyes. I could only cover my mouth while coughing aggressively. That was when waves of pain stirred in my lower abdomen. I instinctively shielded my stomach with my arms. "My baby… Hang in there!"Much to my dismay, my stomach was flat, even though I was due to deliver my baby soon. How did that happen?Before I could comprehend things, I heard a panicked voice beside me. The person shouted, "Celia? Celia! Are you alright?"Why did that voice sound so familiar?Then, Celia Lumley's frail voice rang out, "Save me, Raiden…" Disbelief filled me as I looked up. I saw Raiden Seager half-kneeling beside Celia as he frantically moved a table off her body.I could barely

I summoned all my might to push the heavy cabinet off me. Pain plunged into me like a blade several times. However, it wasn't a big deal compared to the agony I endured in my last life.Serena slumped to the ground in shock upon seeing that. "Raiden, you jerk! The hospital director will never forgive you for this!"She was the only person who knew my true identity in this hospital. Alas, her words only garnered a more heartless, taunting response from Raiden. Raiden sneered, his tone full of disdain. "Won't forgive me?" He clicked his tongue. "Ridiculous! Celia's the only daughter of Lumley Medical's chairperson. The director will never forgive me if anything happens to her!"I struggled to climb out of the gap between the cabinet and the floor. The wound on my leg had been ripped open in the process, my blood staining every inch of my body. Even so, I couldn't care less. I had to live!There wasn't much time left, so I shouted at Serena at once, "Stop begging him to save me! Get

I saw Raiden when I passed by one of the emergency department rooms. He affectionately placed one arm around Celia's shoulders and softly consoled her. It was as though nothing had happened between him and me. It was like he had forgotten about me entirely.One of the nurses, whom I had a good friendship with, checked on my wounds while shaking her head with pity at me. "What have you done to deserve this, Winifred? There are too many broken bones in your body. You may need an entire year before you can fully recover…"The more she spoke, the more her voice softened like she was about to cry. "Thank God… Thank God you didn't hurt your right hand. You can still perform surgeries after you recover."I weakly chuckled. Although I wanted to say something, I was in too much pain to muster a response.The nurse suppressed her voice more, as if she feared someone would hear her. She whispered, "I heard that Celia only has some superficial wounds. Dr. Seager got all worked up over nothin

I passed out before I could get a better look at my dad. It was already the evening the next day when I awoke. My limbs were wrapped in thick plaster and bandages, which prevented me from moving one bit. Despite that, I felt brand new."Winifred!" Serena was worn out but still lunged to my bedside with excitement.I wanted to wave back at her, but I only felt pain when I moved my arm.Serena tensed upon seeing me like that. Tears rolled down her cheeks at once. "You idiot! Do you know how badly injured you are?"A frail chuckle left my lips. "A-At least I managed to live…"I didn't owe Raiden anything in this life. My dad and I wouldn't die now."Oh, you!" Serena cried but also couldn't help laughing. While grabbing some tissues, he said, "I've told your dad everything. He was so livid that he ordered everyone to hold a conference to confront everyone about what happened."I could no longer hold back my tears once I heard that. After all, Raiden's grudge against me ultimately
