Chapter 9 - The Hospital Began Choosing SidesEmily Park returned from administrative leave after her nursing union and attorney challenged the suspension.
She became one of the investigation’s most important witnesses.
Three additional employees came forward.
A blood-bank technician confirmed Luca personally pressured staff to redirect units.
An administrator admitted Mariana’s admission had been deliberately disguised.
An IT specialist revealed someone attempted to alter timestamps after my surgery.
Each revelation peeled away another layer of Luca’s reputation.
But one witness changed everything.
Dr. Samuel Price, the surgeon who operated on me, requested a private meeting.
“I argued with Luca that night,” he told investigators.
“About the blood?”
“Yes.”
“What did he say?”
Samuel looked ashamed.
“He said, ‘Jessi can tolerate the delay.’”
I swallowed.
“And you?”
“I told him you might die.”
The room became silent.
“What did Luca say?”
Samuel looked directly at me.
“He said, ‘Then make sure she doesn’t.’”
That sentence followed me into my dreams.
