Chapter 8 Carla . That name hadn't crossed my mind in a long time . But it hadn't faded from my memory either . After all , she was the one who killed my child . She got what was coming to her . And I couldn't be happier . On the other end of the line , Nikki continued with her gossip , clearly enjoying it . " Do you remember when you left the pack , and the Pack enforcers were about to arrest Carla ? " I nodded . " I remember . " At the time , I had just gathered the evidence , but I hadn't had the chance to report it before I was seriously injured and hospitalized . Finally , Adam had beaten me to it . " Well , Carla really has some tricks up her sleeve . She couldn't handle the pressure of being hunted , and she couldn't bear the thought of spending the rest of her life in Pack Prison , so she found a smuggler to help her escape the country . " Before she left , Carla sold off three luxury cars Adam had given her . During the years Adam spoiled her , Carla had made a tidy profit for herself . Carla had planned to settle down in some nice , quiet place abroad and live out the rest of her life . But when the smuggler found how generous she was with her spending , and how her suitcase was full of luxury items and jewelry , he decided to make a bold move . Without hesitation , he completely cleaned her out . If it weren't for Carla lying and claiming she had HIV , she might not have even made it out of that situation alive . Once she managed to get to her new country , she thought about going to the police , but with her illegal immigrant status , walking into the Pack Enforcement Office would be like walking into a trap . Left with no choice , she had to swallow her misfortune . To survive , she used the little money she had left to call in favors and secure a fake identity , then bouncing from one hospital to another . She was confident that with her reputation at the pack hospital , she would easily find a place wherever she went . Nikki couldn't help but sneer as she spoke . " Carla has some nerve . Does she even realize how she got promoted to the head doctor position at the pack hospital in the first place ? " " Who didn't know that all the difficult surgeries she handled ' were actually done by you ? " I held the phone , my mind drifting back to those days . Back then , Carla had been hired as an intern pack doctor , but Adam had made an exception for her . I suppose he was worried that it she messed up , it would ruin the pack hospital's reputation So , he forced me to always be present during her surgeries . I was supposed to assist , but Carla would always find some excuse for me to take the lead on the surgeries . Then , at the end , she would push her way forward to take the credit . I'd be exhausted after every major surgery . Yet she rushed out first to meet the patient's family , basking in their gratitude . With her smooth words and charm , she almost immediately made them believe she was the one who saved the patient . I brought this up with Adam . If Carla had real skill , I wouldn't care who took the credit . it she w But was nothing but a fraud , and yet she carried herself as if she were the best . I knew , sooner or later , an innocent patient would pay the price for her arrogance and incompetence . At first , Adam was dismissive , offering weak reassurances that he would think about it . But later , when I reminded him again , it turned into impatient insults . " Laura , are you serious ? Carla's just younger and more skilled than you . Why are you so jealous ? Why are you talking behind her back ? " After that , I stopped saving anything And Carla , believing every surgery was a result of her " talent , " started to think that the success of those surgeries was all due to her . So , during that surgery for a mate of the medical dispute family , Carla , afraid I would steal the credit , specifically told Adam not to let me participate . As a result , an innocent life was lost under her scalpel And , tragically , even my child , who was still in my womb , perished along with it . Nikki laughed , clearly enjoying the karmic justice . " She sent out resumes to several major pack hospitals , but after just one surgery , they fired her . No reputable hospital would hire her after that . " " Then she ended up hopping around unlicensed black - market clinics , performing shady transplant surgeries on rogues or dangerous werewolves . With her level of skill , there was no way she could handle such complicated surgeries . " " Eventually , of course , one of her surgeries failed , and an angry rogue shot her on the spot .
