The other doctors quickly grabbed the patient's chart, their faces pale with anxiety. "Mr. Wynn is one of the most brilliant and talented doctors at Starlight Royal Medical Center. Is there really a patient that he can't save?"
The nurse quickly replied, "The patient's brain tumor is in an extremely tricky location, pressing against a major nerve. The situation is critical…"
The doctors looked at the patient's medical records, and their faces turned white.
Based on this chart, the success rate for surgery on this patient's brain tumor was probably less than 10%!
No matter how many hospitals they transferred him to, there was no way they could pull this patient back from the brink!
One doctor's voice trembled. "Mr. Wynn, you have to make a decision! What measures should we take now?"
Among the emergency team, one tall figure stood out. He wore a white coat, had a handsome face, and wore a pair of thin-rimmed glasses. He was the quintessential 'wolf in sheep’s clothing'—refined, sharp, and dangerously elegant.
But at this moment…
Derek was a wreck; sweat beaded on his brow, and a noticeable tremor had taken hold of his hands.
He didn't know…
He couldn't decide.
His mind was a chaotic, empty void.
It was so clear to him before. No matter what difficult case came his way, he could always solve it with ease. He was an undisputed medical genius.
But ever since that one time…
That time his pride was completely crushed by Serena…
He had fallen into a slump, completely unable to pull himself together.
Reason told him he couldn't go on like this. He couldn't let his future be ruined just because his former sister had outshone and beaten him down.
He was a medical genius.
He still had a chance!
That's why when this patient needed to be transferred with an accompanying emergency team, he had volunteered.
His voice was hoarse as he spoke. "What… what are you doing here?!"
Serena hadn't even noticed him at first. She had been drawn by the cries of the patient's family and was watching the swarm of medical personnel. She had simply moved to the side to give them space.
It was only when she heard the doctors' conversation that she noticed her former second brother was part of the accompanying emergency team.
It was just that the Derek of today…
Bore no resemblance to the proud, celebrated new star of the medical world, showered in glory and honor. His hair was messy, his eyes were sunken, and even his usually immaculate white coat was wrinkled.
Was that all it took? He'd already crumbled under the pressure?
People with such strong egos…
They really did have fragile hearts, unable to withstand the slightest blow.
Someone like him, if he ever attended an international medical conference, would probably be so crushed he'd have to be carried home on a stretcher.
