Swapping a Broken Heart for a New Start novel Chapter 270

Everyone in the room froze at her words.

Wait—what was that supposed to mean?

Shirley Reed, still furious at being lied to, immediately snapped, “Sandra Taylor, you’ve got some nerve. Not only are you refusing to admit what you did, you’re actually trying to drag Dr. Davis down with you? She’s a miracle worker! She saved Mr. Williams’ life with just a few injections—how could you possibly accuse her of inventing something so dangerous? You could never be on her level!”

Sandra Taylor finally realized she’d said too much—but it was too late.

Camila Davis let out a cold laugh. “So you admit it, Sandra Taylor! Glad I didn’t waste all that time setting you up and playing along.”

Jordan Smith’s face turned to stone, his eyes colder than a winter storm. “Sandra, what did you just say? Are you telling me that Camila Davis created that drug?”

The FDA supervisor, quick on the uptake, jumped in. “Ms. Davis already provided the drug’s data. Normally, even with a thorough analysis, there’d be no way to match someone else’s formula exactly. But these results are identical—down to the last decimal. That only means one thing… Someone stole her research.”

Mr. Reed immediately chimed in. “So, The Smith Group’s drug… it was stolen from Dr. Davis?”

The supervisor nodded. “Exactly. Ms. Taylor isn’t even a medical professional, yet somehow she comes up with a miracle cure? It never made sense.”

Shirley Reed, never one to hold back, sneered, “So not only is she a homewrecker, but a thief too? Stealing people’s work, people’s husbands, people’s careers… Sandra Taylor, you really are lower than I thought.”

Gary Reed shook his head in disgust. “Ms. Taylor, your ethics are appalling! I can’t believe we ever trusted you.”

Tears spilled down her face as she finished.

For a split second, Jordan wavered—but then reality set in. The drug’s overnight success had always seemed suspicious, but he’d ignored his doubts because he trusted Sandra.

Now he finally understood.

He looked at her with utter disappointment. He might have accepted slow progress, or even failure—but stealing someone else’s research? That was unforgivable.

Sandra saw the look in his eyes, and her heart sank all the way down.
