The implication was clear: the surgery itself could be her death sentence.
Julian stood stunned, momentarily speechless.
Aurelia supported Talia, covering her nose to muffle her own silent sobs.
Seeing their silence, the doctor grew desperate. "Time is of the essence. The family must choose now, or it'll be too late."
"Do it!"
Vivienne burst into the corridor, her voice ringing out with absolute certainty.
Everyone was startled. Before they could react, Vivienne snatched the consent form right out of the doctor's hands.
The doctor immediately tried to stop her. "You're a minor, your signature is invalid. It has to be an immediate family member."
Vivienne paused, turning to look at Talia.
Talia leaned heavily on Aurelia as she stood up, tears streaming down her face. "She can sign. She's Bianca's older sister."
With that, Talia took the pen from Vivienne's hand and signed her own name, then immediately handed the pen back to her.
Vivienne smiled, took the pen, and carefully wrote her own name in the family section, stroke by stroke.
[Congratulations on completing the hidden plotline: Sisterhood Arc - Bianca Whitmore.]
[Narrative Reward: Unparalleled Luck.]
[Please confirm action: Bind/Gift.]
- [Gift.]
She chanted silently in her heart.
As the final stroke landed, a tear escaped her eye and splashed onto the signature.
- [Meeting you was already an act of unparalleled luck.]
Vivienne handed the clipboard back to the doctor and turned to Talia.
"She will survive. Because she said she would look down upon all adversity."
"Mom, we have to believe in her."

Talia was the first to recover, the tears she had just stopped flowing freely once again.
"Dad, Bianca..."
Caspian raised a hand to silence her. He walked right up to the specialists, his aura undeniably intimidating. "How is my granddaughter?"
The specialists immediately repeated their earlier report, only this time they explained it with crystal clarity.
Caspian nodded. "Cedric."
Cedric stepped forward. "Thank you for your hard work, gentlemen. Right this way, please."
What was this about?
The specialists didn't dare question it. Exchanging nervous glances, they followed Cedric into the elevator.
At the same time, Dr. Cole stepped out of another elevator with his medical team. Without a word, they strode straight into the operating room and wheeled Bianca out.
Talia, overwhelmed with emotion, tried to follow them to check on her daughter, but seeing Caspian's icy expression, she immediately stepped back.
Caspian turned toward the waiting area, his sharp gaze sweeping over everyone present. Besides Dorian and Victoria, the entire Ravenshire family was there. Lara kept her head bowed, absolutely terrified of making eye contact with him.
