Trick Him Into Divorce, Then Flee With His Unknow Kid novel Chapter 91

Chapter 91: Chapter 91 The Accusation

Her arm was suddenly seized and yanked backward.

As Rose turned around, she caught sight of a hand swinging toward her face.

The slap came so suddenly that she barely had time to react.

Rose’s expression darkened instantly.

Just as she was about to dodge, someone grabbed her arm and pulled her out of the way.

A cold, stern voice followed.

“Nothing has been confirmed yet. Let’s wait for the final results.”

Rose looked up.

James was still holding her arm.

Instinctively, he had positioned himself in front of her, blocking the slap Samantha had intended to land across her face.

It created a strangely protective stance.

Rose had no idea what they were talking about.

Nor did she understand why they had suddenly appeared and started making accusations.

James’s reaction did not escape Ryan’s notice.

Having arrived moments later, Ryan’s sharp gaze settled on James’s face.

Samantha was equally stunned.

She hadn’t expected James to protect Rose.

A second earlier, she had almost struck her.

“Mr. Taylor?”

Disappointment filled Samantha’s eyes.

Rose finally recovered from her shock.

Having her workday interrupted by this absurd scene instantly ruined her mood.

She pulled her arm free from James’s grasp and glared at Samantha.

“Reason? Motive? What’s wrong with you?”

Samantha stared at her in disbelief, her expression icy.

“How could you use a child as a test subject?”

Her voice trembled with anger. “Just to satisfy your ambition and advance your career? Rose, are you even human?”

The accusation hit like a hammer.

Rose hated situations like this.

Without patience for riddles, she cut her off.

“Stop talking in circles. Say it clearly.”

Seeing Rose’s seemingly unrepentant attitude, Samantha’s eyes turned colder.

“Mike suffered an acute allergic reaction. It was caused by an overdose of an ingredient used in the cardiovascular medication currently being tested. He’s already receiving emergency treatment, and his blood work confirms the substance came from G.S.’s ongoing drug project.”

Rose: “...”

A completely baseless accusation had just been dumped on her.

She was so angry she almost laughed.

“Me? Using a child as a guinea pig?”

“Isn’t that exactly what you did?”

Samantha’s voice sharpened. “You wanted success so badly, and Mike happened to have a related condition. So you tested the drug on him directly.”

Her eyes blazed with fury. “One mistake and he could have died. Rose, this is deliberate revenge.”

Only then did Rose fully understand what Samantha was accusing her of.

The faint smile disappeared from her lips.

“You’re assigning blame before the facts are even established.”

Her eyes turned cold. “Samantha, are you stupid, or are you just impatient?”

James frowned. “Mike is in the emergency room right now. His condition is serious. If the dosage had been any higher, it could have triggered organ failure.”

“What does that have to do with me?”

Rose let out a cold laugh. “If someone is responsible, then find the person responsible. Do you want me to help you sue their employer while we’re at it?”

“He’s your brother!”

Samantha inhaled sharply. “How can you be this heartless?”

“If you could solve it yourselves, would you even be standing here?”

Her voice rose. “Everyone knows there are no surveillance cameras in the ward. You have a motive because of the antique shop. Mike never liked you and always kept his distance from you. Rose, your malice is beyond reason.”

Samantha’s legs seemed to weaken.

Instinctively, she reached back and grabbed Ryan’s arm.

Throughout the entire confrontation, Ryan had remained silent.

Yet his cold, penetrating gaze never left Rose.

No one could tell what he was thinking.

Rose looked at the two of them.

Standing side by side, they looked exactly like a united front confronting a common enemy.

At that moment, another voice cut in.

“So you’re accusing Rose of committing a crime in my hospital and dragging Peace Medical Center into a major lawsuit?”

Caleb strode over, his tone equally sharp.

He walked directly to Rose’s side.

Then, without a word, he subtly positioned himself between her and James.

The gesture was unmistakable.

Move aside.

James had no choice but to step back.

His brows furrowed as he glanced at Caleb.

For some reason, a flicker of irritation surfaced in his chest.

Seeing Caleb arrive, Samantha pressed her lips together.

“President Byrne, it’s my brother who’s lying in the emergency room. I hope you’ll understand my concern.”

Her tone softened. “I’m not asking Peace Medical Center or the Byrne family for an apology. But this matter is extremely serious.”

“Caleb, let’s go.”

Rose grabbed Caleb’s arm and turned to leave.

Even then, Caleb looked back at Samantha.

“G.S. isn’t lacking personnel at the moment.”

His tone was polite but cold. “Still, thank you for your concern, Ms. Hill.”

Samantha’s expression darkened immediately.

She had practically handed him a solution.

And he still refused it.

Only then did Ryan finally speak. “Mike hasn’t come out of intensive care yet.”

His voice was low and calm. “Aren’t you going to check on him?”

He hadn’t explicitly told her to apologize.

Nor had he said she should take responsibility.

But Rose understood exactly what he meant.

In the end, he still stood on Samantha’s side.

She met his cold, penetrating gaze.

Then she gave a faint, mocking smile. “Is he dead?”

Ryan’s dark eyes fixed on her.

Rose’s expression turned completely indifferent. “Let me know when he’s dead.”

Samantha’s face changed instantly.

But Rose gave her no chance to respond.

She turned and walked away without looking back.

Her departure was decisive.

Resolute.

James watched her leave, his chest tightening.

This time, Rose’s position was unshakable.

If Caleb wanted to protect Peace Medical Center’s reputation, safeguard G.S.’s future, and ensure the smooth progress of funding for the surgical robot project...

Then sooner or later, he would be forced to distance himself from her.

A trace of mockery flashed through Samantha’s eyes.

Rose was merely putting on a brave face.

Even if she lost her authorship credit on the drug project, what would happen?

Nothing.

She would simply go back to being an insignificant junior researcher.

A disposable piece on G.S.’s chessboard.

And once she lost her value...

She would be discarded without hesitation.
