Coolest Girl in Town (Elise and Alexander) novel Chapter 434

Chapter 434 Of Course I’ll Bear the Consequences!

Later that night, when the entire residential area was dead silent, a specially modified ambulance came to a halt in front of the house. A short while later, the ambulance drove out of the town with a total of four cars escorting it from the front and back.

About one hour later, in the ICU of a private hospital, two men were standing beside a glass coffin. Thomas took one look at the man inside before he dragged Alexander over to the side. “Didn’t I say this before? He’s a comatose patient—he’s not going to wake up. Why are you sending him over?”

“We need your place to conduct a surgery,” Alexander replied calmly.

“A surgery? For the guy in the coffin? What sort of joke is this?” Thomas was utterly dumbfounded and bombarded Alexander with a series of questions. Although Thomas wasn’t the most experienced doctor, he was still one of the most capable specialists in Tissote. Wouldn’t he be able to tell if a man showed any signs of waking up from a coma? Putting such a patient through surgery would only cause greater harm to the patient’s body.

However, even after Thomas finished speaking, Alexander gazed at him with the same stern expression on his face. Elise, who was standing beside them, had an equally serious look.

“You guys aren’t joking after all.” Thomas was certain when he saw their faces. “No way.” He held his arms out to stop them from moving. “I’m a doctor, and I have the duty to protect patients. You guys are fooling around with another man’s life, and I will not agree to this!”

Thomas had just finished speaking when Claude strolled over in a white lab coat. Thomas noticed Claude from the corner of his eye, and he immediately spun around to realize that Claude was the doctor who was going to conduct the surgery. Thomas hastily leaped forward to stop the man. “Hey! What sort of scammer are you? How could you suggest for the patient to undergo surgery when he’s in this state? Do you know that the patient might die if you make any mistakes with the craniotomy? Are you going to bear the consequences?!”

“Yeah, yeah.” Claude eyed Thomas with an innocent look on his face. “I’ll bear all the consequences. You’re such a handsome man, so of course I’ll be the one to bear the consequences!”

Thomas hastily put his arms in front of his chest. “I’m talking about the patient’s life! This is a serious situation—I’m not fooling around with you! Won’t you feel guilty if that man dies? You guys can take risks if you want—just don’t kill a man in my surgical theater!” Thomas stuck his chin high to show that he wasn’t going to work with them.

“You’re going to agree to our plan eventually.” Claude grinned as he stuck his hands into the pockets of his lab coat.

“Hah! I’d never agree with some rookie doctor like you…” Thomas lowered his head as he spoke, but the very moment he met Claude’s gaze, he noticed grains of white powder being thrown toward him from the side. Thomas held his arm up to block the powder, but it was too late—he had inhaled some of the substance. Moments later, he felt his legs turning to jelly. Thomas clutched onto the wall for support, but he slid down the wall and collapsed onto the ground. “H-How dare you drug me?” Even his voice had turned softer as he lay on the ground weakly.

Claude bent down to pat Thomas on the head. “Just stay here and wait for us to come out, okay?” Claude said with an evil smile on his face.

Thomas could only watch as a few people walked into the surgical theater. Soon after that, the red light that said ‘surgery in progress’ lit up above the doors. Thomas knew then that it was too late for him to do anything. He calmed himself down and narrowed his eyes to glare at Elise and Alexander resentfully. The couple was seated on a long bench outside the surgical theater, and Alexander pretended not to see Thomas as he reached his hand over to give Elise’s hand a squeeze.

Upon witnessing their actions, Thomas widened his eyes in shock. He was dumbfounded by what they were doing, but he was too weak to react. Are you guys really human? I can’t believe you guys are showing affection to each other when I’m in this state!

It was almost like Alexander could read Thomas’s mind because just then, Alexander shot a glance at Thomas before looking away. Thomas felt like he was nothing but a piece of furniture in the room. Isn’t anyone going to pick me up from the ground? Thomas thought as he glared at them speechlessly. Doesn’t Elise have some magical acupuncture skills? Is she pretending to be blind right now? Ugh!
