Ethan’s findings started to stack up like dominoes. The preliminary whispers he’d sent me from the forums quickly evolved into concrete evidence.

He called me late that night, his voice hushed. “Clara, you’re not going to believe this.”

“Tell me,” I urged, my heart pounding against my ribs. I was still at the hospital, reviewing patient files, but my focus had shifted entirely.

“Julian Driscoll didn’t pass his surgical board exams on his first try,” Ethan revealed. “Not even his second. There are archived posts, private messages from a student forum back when he was at medical school. He paid someone a hefty sum to take them for him.”

I gripped the phone, a cold wave washing over me. Julian, the lauded surgeon, the golden boy of the Driscoll dynasty, was a fraud.

“How much?” I asked, picturing the endless stream of patients he’d operated on.

“One of the posts mentions twenty-five thousand dollars,” Ethan said. “A ‘fee for services rendered,’ disguised as tutoring. I even found a cached payment transfer linked to an offshore account.”

But the revelations didn’t stop there.

“And Chloe,” Ethan continued. “Her ‘groundbreaking’ residency thesis? It was lifted almost verbatim from an obscure paper published five years earlier in a Taiwanese medical journal. I’ve got both documents side by side. The language, the methodology, even the typos—it’s identical.”

My blood ran cold. Chloe hadn’t just copied it; she had stolen an entire academic identity.

“This is huge, Ethan,” I whispered, the implications dawning on me. “This isn’t just about infidelity. This is about professional fraud. Malpractice.”

“It’s about everything, Clara,” he agreed. “Their entire careers are built on lies. No wonder Eleanor protects them so fiercely.”

My mind raced. This evidence, if real, could shatter their world. It was a weapon, but I needed more. The forum posts and plagiarized thesis were damning, but I needed hospital-specific evidence of Julian’s clinical incompetence. Something directly tied to patient outcomes that Eleanor and her cronies had swept under the rug.

“Thank you, Ethan,” I said, a new resolve hardening my voice. “Now I need something else. Something from inside the hospital itself. Actual patient records. Insurance claims.”

He understood. The digital trail was a map, but I needed the treasure chest.
