Madly Yours (Nora Reed) novel Chapter 757

However, Hudson completely ignored the object that had just been extracted. His brow pulled into a fierce scowl. "Don't just stand there! Stop the bleeding and stitch it up!"

"Right, right..."

Liam quickly dropped the forceps and the extracted object into the sterilization tray and rapidly sanitized his hands.

"Use that cosmetic suturing method that doesn't leave a trace..."

Just as Liam prepared the needle to begin, Hudson suddenly added the demand.

Liam glanced up at him instinctively, marveling at how knowledgeable his boss was to even know what 'cosmetic suturing' was.

"Understood."

Liam nodded immediately, channeling the exact focus he'd had during his final medical school exams. He began stitching with extreme precision, determined not to leave even the slightest scar...

Nora's lower back was numb from the local anesthetic, so she couldn't feel any pain, but she could still feel the pull of the thread as the wound was slowly closed.

Ten minutes later, Liam finally let out a long breath and wiped the cold sweat from his forehead. "All done..."

Hudson didn't even look at him. He dropped to one knee beside the bed, his dark eyes filled with absolute heartache as he looked at Nora. "How are you doing, honey? Does it hurt?"

Nora quickly shook her head. "It doesn't hurt... the anesthetic hasn't worn off yet."

Turning her head, she looked toward the sterilization tray. "There really was something in there... What is it? A... microchip?"

Hudson's gaze shifted to the fingernail-sized object sitting in the tray. It was coated in an incredibly thin biological membrane, gleaming faintly under the light.

He picked up a pair of forceps and carefully peeled away the outer membrane, finally revealing what lay beneath...

It was unmistakably—

A microchip!

"Is this the Ring Laser Gyro chip you were talking about..."

"I'm not sure yet."

Hudson shook his head, pinching the chip between his fingers before handing it to Liam. "Take this to Archer. See if he can figure out what's on it."

"Yes, Boss."

Liam carefully carried the chip out of the room. After handing it over to Archer, he returned to pack up his equipment.

Since it was a minimally invasive subcutaneous incision, Liam only prescribed some anti-inflammatory medication and painkillers. Plus, because he had used cosmetic suturing, the wound was tiny and wouldn't leave a scar. As long as she kept it dry for a few days, it would scab over and heal perfectly.

Almost the second Liam packed up his medical kit, Archer knocked on the door.

Hudson looked up. "Did you read it?"
