"Gwendolyn, take a seat," Aiken, ever the stern figure, beckoned with a rare patience in his voice. "I've heard about the incident in Obstetrics. Your skills have been underestimated in the past." "It was just basic diagnostics," Gwendolyn replied, her modesty intact.

"It's composure under pressure that sets a doctor apart, and you have it. You're remarkably calm," Aiken commended her. "Gwendolyn, I want you to get hands-on as soon as possible." There was a moment of hesitation before she admitted, "But I haven't earned my medical license yet." "As long as you're supervised by a licensed physician, it's all above board.

"I heard, from Nicolette you love apples. I picked out the finest ones just for you." The sweetness in her voice almost made Gwendolyn question her memories, and yet it 11:23 also struck her as absurd.

"I don't love apples," Gwendolyn corrected her firmly "We ate them because they wes cheap, and we couldn't afford anything else when I was younger? Gemma turned a shade paler as she stammered, "... I know I made mistakes. It up to you."

"Why don't you take this good fortune for yourself?" Gwendolyn was icy as shoc her tone flat and devoid of warmth. "Do I need to remind you what you said at the party banquet last night?" "Gwen..." "You're here because of Howard, aren't you? You and the rest of them flock to wy the advantages lie," Gwendolyn was tinged with sadness: “Let this hope die "Gwen!" Ignoring Gemma's pleas, Gwendolyn walked away briskly "Gwen, wait for me! Oh...!" Gemma stumbled and fell, twisting her ankle Gwendolyn hesitated for a mere second before hardening her resolve and continuing forward.

"Gwendolyn, you'd be dead without me! I've done you favors, you have no jose wise happened back then..." Gemma was filled with anger and desperation. Tears threatened to spill from Gwendolyn when a car pulled up beside her
