Bab 68: Strange figure

As Harry finished his last surgery of the day, his thoughts drifted back to the unsettling conversation with his sister that morning. Her words lingered, refusing to be drowned out by the distractions of his work. A growing sense of unease propelled Harry to leave the hospital and search for Valerie. He couldn't shake the feeling that Zoey's deception went far beyond a simple lie to his sister. The question echoed in his mind: what had Zoey done to incite Valerie's hatred? Harry's determination to uncover the truth dug at his guts.

Just as Harry was about to leave his office, the nurse he had assigned to Maya's care knocked and entered, her expression laced with concern. "Good day, Mr. Harry," she said, her greeting hesitant, as if unsure of interrupting.
