Chapter 377 Back from the Brink

In that moment, the blood feud and distance between the brothers seemed to fade.

Right now, they were just two grandsons, hoping Theodore would survive.

Inside the vehicle, the atmosphere felt suffocating.

“Animals. Absolute animals,” one of the doctors snarled as he examined Theodore, his eyes red with fury. “They used a mixed neurotoxin and a bone–softening agent on an elderly man. They meant to torture him to death.”

He took a sharp breath. “Cardiopulmonary function is nearly gone. Multiple organ failure. The brain suffered prolonged hypoxia. Boss, the situation… doesn’t look good. I’m afraid it may be beyond saving.”

They had done everything they could, using the most advanced equipment and techniques available. But Theodore’s body had been ravaged too badly. His vital signs were almost gone.

Even if he survived, he would likely be left severely disabled. The doctors exchanged glances, hesitating, wanting to tell Noelle to give up, but swallowing the words before they could speak.

Noelle said nothing.

She understood better than anyone how dire Theodore’s condition was.

The toxins were complex and violent. His bodily functions had collapsed across the board. His heart had been stopped well beyond the golden rescue window.

Any one of those could have killed him.

Sebastian’s eyes came to mind, filled with pain yet still trusting her completely.

Then Ethan’s desperate eyes, clinging to the last shred of hope.

Then Theodore’s awkward but obedient expression as he drank his

earlier.

No. She couldn’t give up. There was still a chance.

She took a deep breath and snapped, “Continue ECMO support. Maintain basic life signs. Initiate Nirvana Plan, Level Three.”

“Nirvana Level Three?” The doctors sucked in a breath. That was Alliance 749’s highest–level life–restart protocol, something that existed in theory but had never been fully successful. The risks were enormous, and the demands on the operator were nearly inhuman.

“Boss, this is too dangerous. Your body won’t be able to handle it-”

“Do it.”

Noelle cut him off, her voice low but absolute. “I need complete silence and full cooperation. All nonessential personnel, exit the cabin and stand by. Prepare nanobiological robots for neural electrical stimulation. We’ll attempt to restart the patient’s heit

“Yes.”

Outside, time crawled forward, second by second,

The night slowly faded, and the horizon began to glow pale with dawn.

Two full hours passed.

The red light on the surgical cabin was still on. The door remained shut. There was no news at all.

Sebastian and Ethan stood at the very front, like stone statues, eyes fixed on the door without blinking,

Both had bloodshot eyes, veins standing out.

Alina, Lucas, Serena, and the others stood nearby in silence. The pressure in the air was almost unbearable.

Royce, Olivia, and the rest lay gagged on the ground, their faces were ashen..

They knew Theodore was likely beyond saving. This was probably just delaying the inevitable.

Every second deepened their terror of Sebastian’s revenge. The mental torment alone was close to breaking them.

Just as everyone felt that final thread of tension was about to snap-

Click. A soft sound.

The red light on the surgical cabin went out, and the door slowly opened. Everyone held their breath as Noelle appeared in the doorway.

Her face was pale. Her eyes were filled with extreme exhaustion, her lips drained of color. The toll on her was obvious.

All eyes snapped to her at once. Sebastian and Ethan stepped forward almost in unison, lips moving, but neither dared to ask. Noelle’s gaze swept over everyone before settling on Sebastian and Ethan. She drew a shallow breath and said, in a hoarse but perfectly clear voice, one word at a time. “Grandpa is stable. He’s out of immediate danger. Honey, you don’t need to worry anymore.”

As soon as the words were spoken, the room fell deathly silent.
