"It was initially an unintentional mistake mistake of the hospital staff. After the delivery of the two mothers, the babies got mixed up and were swapped due to negligence and lack of staff at that time. Even the blood records were not properly managed at that time as there was total chaos because of too many emergency cases and the hospital didn"t have enough staff that day." The Chief Physician began...
-The incident on Cecile"s birth delivery years ago-
"After the delivery of both women, the babies were identified wrongly by the nurses and soon after the birth, one of the boys died. The nurses wrongly took him to be Cecile"s child and after a little formalities, Cecile was informed about it and her guardian took care of the baby"s burial."
"The other woman was about to leave the hospital but the baby got sick and suddenly a request for blood transfusion is required but he did not matched any of the blood type of his parents. There was not even a possibility of segregated genes because the parents both had "B" type of blood but the baby is "A". This ignited suspicion, so I ordered the double checking of files and also talked to the staff present during the delivery of both women and then i came to discover the mistake that was committed unknowingly by our nurse staff." explained the Chief Physician.
The Chief Physician or also known as Doctor Song at that time, was one of a candidate for promotion to the next Chief Director position of the hospital. After he came to know of all that happened, he at first wanted to immediately resolve the issue but hesitated since all doc.u.ments were signed by him, even though he was not directly involved in that mistake, his name would still be on the line.
However, the Chief Director had advised him to stay quiet for a while as he looked for a way to how to handle things without involving Doctor Song, who was his bet to get the position he was leaving.
But Doctor Song was an honest man and his conscience could not take the burden of lying to a mother just for a higher position. He was a doctor to help rebuild and sustain life and not a quack who would tell a lie just for power.
That time, after contemplating over the issue, Doctor Song had decided to do what was right. He was on his way to the office of the Chief Director to convince the latter that it would be best for him to come clean and tell the truth but then he heard some voices from the meeting room and stopped when he noticed that the Director was talking to someone.
He had no intention to eavesdrop but he heard the name of the patient who was the same patient under his supervision when the nurse had a mistake, Cecile Chiu.
"I will take care of you and your family. That baby must remain dead now for everyone…." said the man who was on a wheelchair as he laughed out hard like a devil.
"Everything goes according to my plan, who would have thought I will gain profit in the end! What is important is that the baby is a confirmed Ken"s blood." the man added.
"But what about Doctor Song, the nurse and staff who knew about it?" The Director asked with a worried tone.
"Don"t fret. I will take care of them. I will make sure their lips are all sealed and would not utter a single word at all." the man on the wheelchair declared boastfully.
"What do you mean? Are you going to kill those people?" asked the Director in horror.
"Of course I will. I need to shut them for the rest of their lives. Don"t worry my friend… I will keep you alive as long as you follow everything I say. You and your family will be safe and prosper." the man answered.
Doctor Song"s face paled as his knees weekend nervously. He quickly moved and packed everything he could bring at that time to escape the hideous plan of the man on the wheelchair to him and the others.
He quickly sneaked out and took the recordings of that video clip and voice recording at the security room to which he had full access.
Their hospital was still under construction and one of the room they were constructing was the Director"s office so he often accepted visitors at the conference room where the latest security and meeting devices were getting installed and the video camera and voice recorder were a few of them.
In the meeting room, a camera was installed including the voice recorder that was to be kept on always to record every important meeting and activities of the staff in the meetings. The Director was not aware of it yet because this was just installed yesterday and the Director was on leave that day.
He also left a note for the nurse and staff that were involved in the incident. It was a note to call him urgently since he couldn"t reach them already.
But no one contacted him and he just found out that they had a car accident and did not survive it. He knew there was no accident at all. It was a well planned murder.
So Doctor Song kept himself hidden to stay alive with a new ident.i.ty…
