Goodbye You Never Loved Me novel (Martha and Stefan) novel Chapter 227

Chapter 227 The Surgery Was A Success

Gradually, Stefan came back to reality. The rims of his eyes started to turn red, and he pursed his thin lips hard. He thought of it over and over and couldn't help but smile. All at once, the gloominess and ruthlessness in his eyes were gone.

The surgery was on. Martha and Rupert leaned against the wall, staring at the operating room without a blink.

Stefan saw Rupert follow Martha closely and talk to her from time to time, and Martha nodded in response.

He noticed Martha's face turning pale and her lips getting dry. The surgery had just begun. He was afraid that she was too weak to wait for the result of the surgery.

Stefan checked the time and left without saying a word.

Martha heard the noise and looked up, only to see him leaving in silence.

She stared at his back for a few seconds and then took her eyes off him. She concentrated on the operating room again.

"Jimmy will be fine. Don't worry," comforted Rupert gently.

Martha had fixed her eyes anxiously on the operating room since Jimmy went inside. She was so tense up that she would freak out sooner or later.

"Yeah. He'll be fine," murmured Martha, not knowing she was responding to Rupert or just comforting herself.

It broke Rupert's heart when he saw Martha's dark circles.

"Catch some sleep in the ward. I'll wait here and let you know when the surgery is finished."

It was true that Martha hadn't slept well recently. She lost sleep the whole night and couldn't stop thinking of the surgical risks whenever she closed her eyes. It was killing her.

"I'm OK..."

She refused to leave. At that time, Stefan returned.

Before they realized it, Stefan simply grabbed Martha's hand, made her sit down on a bench nearby and gave her a glass of hot milk. Martha could smell the delicious milk.

Martha frowned, said nothing, and heard Stefan's heavy voice, "I've talked to the doctor. The surgery takes at least half a day. You're too weak, and you should take a nap in the ward."

His voice sounded extremely soft and tender, but Martha couldn't feel it any more.

She shook her head and said, "No. I'm OK."

"Listen to me. The surgical risks aren't severe. What matters is the 24-hour observation period after the surgery. Jimmy will really need you then. You'll be too weak to keep him company if you don't take care of yourself."
