Chapter 855: Conscience is a Balance

Standing before Isaac, Kiara didn't have to pretend anymore and told the truth. "To say I wasn't scared at all wouldn't be true. I felt a fluctuation in my heart when the child was rescued and then exhibited abnormal behavior."

"You weren't afraid facing the criminal, so what scared you after saving the person?"

"I was afraid my efforts would go to waste. It only took a few minutes to save the person, but I gave it my all. I used all my strength to seem calm. I couldn't bear to see that hardworking self disappointed."

"...So, you still care about that child, don't you?" Isaac deduced this from Mrs. Kiara's winding conversation.

"I only care about myself! I don't want my efforts to be wasted."

Mrs. Kiara corrected Isaac seriously; she didn't like to appear too sentimental.

Isaac seemed to understand Mrs. Kiara a little bit.

What an awkward person she is indeed, a great doctor with medical ethics and compassion, yet she wraps herself in a cloak of selfishness.
