Olivia said innocently, "I witnessed a surgery with my teacher when I was a freshman. "A renowned doctor's hands were shaking in the operating room. That almost caused the patient to die. "My teacher was able to save the patient with great effort. Do you know who that doctor was?""Dr. Gatsby?""Yes. He has a neurological illness. Something like that is hard to cure. It gets out of control during stressful situations. "Mr. Heath's surgery is an extremely difficult one. The stress would almost definitely cause him to relapse.""So, everything was within your calculations?"Olivia shook her head. "It's not part of my calculation. It's just fate. He made the operation harder for me. I might not be able to save Mr. Heath. You need to prepare for the worst."Ethan didn't reply. He knew it wasn't Olivia's fault. Whether Mason lived or died, it was up to fate to decide. He looked out of the window at the snow. Olivia was browsing her phone in boredom. Ethan suddenly said, "The
Tatiana knew their words were too harsh when they sent Olivia away. She was incredibly regretful that she didn't listen to Joel and Rufus.After all, it was only natural to choose an experienced doctor over a young lady.Tatiana also noticed that Olivia was a very proud person who didn't care about bureaucrats. Olivia was someone who spent most of her time in hiding. The wealthy people who wanted her to treat them didn't even know where to find her. Tatiana got on her knees and said, "Miss, I know we were in the wrong. I apologize for my arrogance and prejudice against you.""What are you doing, Mom? Do you really think she could save Dad? How could you kneel before a peasant like her?"Peasant? Olivia's lips twitched. It seemed like Krystal had been spoiled by her parents too much. She had never experienced how cruel the world could be. Did she even know what situation she was in?Olivia helped Tatiana up and said, "Mrs. Heath, your daughter is right. You shouldn't bend y
Linus was mature and stoic. He had a very commanding presence. "I heard that you're the doctor that Ethan recommended. I trust you. Just do your best. At this stage, even if you fail, you won't be held accountable."Olivia didn't waste any more time. "I'll head into the operating room immediately."Rufus became hopeful when he saw Olivia. Olivia looked at her former teacher. He was the one who brought her to sit in and observe all sorts of surgeries when she was a freshman. Back then, she would always look up at him while she was learning and taking notes. At that moment, she became the leading surgeon, and her teacher was her assistant. I didn't disappoint you, teacher. Olivia frowned as Rufus brought her up to speed. She could see the worry and helplessness in his eyes. The feeling of helplessness was one of the worst feelings for a doctor when they couldn't do anything while they watched the patient die before them.Olivia spoke up. "Don't worry, teacher. It might b
Apparently, Krystal still hadn't grasped the severity of the situation. If Mason passed, their family would lose all the power and glory they had. Did she think that would be good for them?Krystal looked into Linus' bloodshot eyes. At that moment, she truly felt fear. Her brother was different from her. He was enlisted into the army at a young age. While she was still looking at luxury items at the mall, Linus had already gotten countless medals of honor. He worked his way to his current position without any help from the Heath family. He had suffered hardships and starved. He crawled his way from the abyss to the light. Krystal was just a spoiled princess who was completely oblivious to their situation. "Linus, it hurts …"Tatiana quickly separated the two of them. "That's enough, Linus. Your sister is also worried about your father. There's no need to take your anger out on her."Linus said coldly, "You should stop spoiling her. Both of them are in their 20s. Vane
Ethan nodded. "Okay. Right this way, please."He brought Olivia to a suite. They went in simultaneously. Ethan hugged her as soon as they closed the door. "Liv, it was all my fault. I shouldn't have crushed your dreams in the past."Back then, there were two reasons for Olivia to drop out. The first reason was that Olivia was married to him, and her identity as his wife would put her in danger. His spouse had to keep a low profile.The other reason was that Olivia was too outstanding. Ethan was so possessive that he didn't want her to attract the attention of other men.He finally realized how ridiculous he had been."Liv, I'm proud of you. You're my pride and joy," Ethan said sincerely. Olivia had grown so much in the past few years. What Ethan didn't know was she had spent most of her time reading all sorts of medical books and articles while he was bedridden. In the past, she had observed countless surgeries with her teacher. In the past few years, she had performed s
There were only three people left in the corridor. Linus sat with his back straight and his hands on his knees. The cold winter winds flowed into the corridor through the window. None of them moved. The atmosphere became even more chilling. Linus broke the silence. "This ambush. Someone from the inside leaked information."Ethan nodded. "I think so, too. Or else no one would be able to hurt Mr. Heath."Linus' piercing gaze fell on both of them. "If I ever found out who the mole is, the person will die a very painful death."He was clearly warning Ethan and Yale. Ethan stood with his hands behind his back. He was frightened by Linus' suspicion. He met Linus' gaze and said, "So, you think I did it?"Linus said meaningfully, "I'm not suspecting the two of you. Rather, everyone is a suspect right now. I truly hope it's not either one of you."The struggle between Yale and Ethan had become completely transparent. They were attacking each other in the open. And then something ha
She hadn't even reached the ward yet, but Olivia was already surrounded by a group of old men. They were the pillars of the medical field."Which school did you graduate from, young lady?""Who was your mentor?""That operation last night was superb!" All of them were talking at once. It was very chaotic. They also had a gleam of joy and excitement in their eyes. Joel said with pride, "I told you she could do it. What did all of you say?""Joel, there's no need to bring up the past. You made the right call. I was scared to death last night. "Lionel would be finished if Mr. Heath died on the operating table.""Young lady, you have great mental fortitude. You managed to keep your cool in such a stressful situation."Everyone was praising Olivia, but Rufus didn't say anything. He didn't care about all those things. He just wanted to know if Vanessa was actually Olivia. That was why he was hesitant to speak when he looked at her. Then, Olivia said, "My teacher once told me
Olivia walked closer to Mason, who had a bright smile on his face. "I've heard about everything that happened last night. You're young, but you have such incredible courage. You're a rare talent, indeed. "I won't be able to recover too soon, but I heard Joel say you're adept in herbal medicine. Would you be willing to stay as my chief physician and take care of me?"It was as Joel had said. Capable people are always going to be recruited by the government. Anyone else would be overjoyed by this offer. Olivia wasn't interested in the slightest. She had her own path to walk. Before she could even respond, Krystal spoke up urgently. "Dad, you don't even know her background. How could you allow her to take care of you?"Mason said kindly, "Krystal, if she really wanted to harm me, would she have tried so hard to save me last night?" "I've talked it through with Joel. Vanessa is the best person for the role. She is adept in both modern and herbal medicine.""I'm sorry, Mr. Heat
