Lahat ng Kabanata ng Time's Twist: A Love Turned Deadly: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

After I left the emergency department, I felt an agonizing pain in my stomach like someone stabbed me and twisted the knife.I developed pancreatitis around the same time in my previous life. At that time, I called Joshua, who was on shift. He immediately came home and drove me to the hospital.During his short absence from work, his first love, Jackie, picked up a patient on his behalf. She met a car accident on the trip and tragically passed away.Later, Joshua learned that Jackie had made the sacrifice of sleeping with the hospital director to get Joshua's penalty retracted. The day after, the hospital indeed retracted its penalty on Joshua.Jackie loved Joshua so much that she wouldn't stop calling his name before her death.On the day Jackie passed away, Joshua locked himself in the room and smoked two packs of cigarettes. However, he emerged looking normal, chatting and smiling at me as usual. He drove me to work and picked me up, and he made dinners for me just like before.

That was followed by the second and third mouthfuls of blood. My dark red blood stained the floor and my shirt. It reeked of alcohol. Lucas finally stopped smiling. He looked horrified. As a doctor in the emergency department, he quickly lifted me in his arms and swiftly sent me into the ER.On our way, he grabbed a nurse and barked, "Take her blood and test for amylase. Call the ultrasound department."The nurse was stunned by the large swath of blood on my shirt. "W-What's going on? Dr. Kane said she was faking it. Is that true?"Lucas grew worried. "This is not the time to ask that question. Just do what I told you to."I felt better after coughing up the blood. The pain in my stomach subsided a little.Many onlookers crowded around the wide open doors of the ER. They saw me covered in blood, and that set off a fervent discussion."Didn't that doctor say she was faking it for attention? Why was she covered in blood, then?""What's going on? I have been watching this scene u

Joshua slapped me with all his might. I fell onto the floor, and my ears rang.His anger ballooned. He tried to slap me again as though I deserved worse punishment, but someone held him back.It was Lucas. He pleaded, "Enough, Joshua. Harper is a patient."Joshua was incensed. "Did you seriously believe in her lies? Or have you fallen for her?"Lucas' tone became stern. "Joshua, do you not have an ounce of empathy? Can't you tell she's not faking it? Even if you can't tell from her behavior, you could have checked her medical history! "Because of your words, everyone at the hospital brushed her off. Now, she is suffering from a serious case of pancreatic adhesion. We have no choice but to schedule a surgery. She had a hemorrhage during the surgery, and it took the surgeon a lot of effort to save her life."Lucas seemed to be truly angered. He couldn't believe Joshua's flippant attitude toward a patient's life, and he deeply regretted his actions last night."Even if she weren't

According to Lucas, a rumor about Jackie had been swirling in the hospital. She was said to have slept with the hospital director to secure her job. As a bachelor's degree holder without any relevant experience, she couldn't have possibly jumped ship from a community hospital to a top hospital in the nation.After Jackie joined St. George Hospital, she proved to be incompetent. All she did was hang around Joshua all day. She gave her patients an attitude and often prescribed the wrong medicine. Not only that, she refused to admit to her mistakes and shifted the blame onto her colleagues.Someone even spotted Jackie leaving the hospital director's office after the lunch break, looking unkempt.The hospital director immediately notified Joshua after Grant called him last night. Joshua, who kept his memories from his past life, asked Jackie whether she had slept with the hospital director. She readily admitted to it.Joshua, who already felt indebted to Jackie, felt bad for her and pr
