Almost all the people that were familiar to her would call her like that, but when she heard such an intimate name from his mouth, her heart could not help trembling twice.
Emily was stunned, nervously holding her breath, she asked, "Ah?"
"The operation..." Simon's Adam's apple rolled slowly, "Will it be successful?"
Emily raised her head to look at him, and her heart skipped a beat after they looked into each other's eyes.
His eyes, which had always been charming and bright, appeared a little gloomy. He looked lonely. It seemed as if there were a lonely centuries- old castle inside his eyes. Besides, there was a hint of fear in his eyes.
Simon's voice became increasingly hoarser. "Director Lee is an expert in curing tumor. He has encountered many patients with complicated diseases. It should not be difficult for him. The operation will be successful, right?"
Emily felt that the big hand on her hand back stiffened.
At a close distance, he stared at her as if she was the only person he could rely on. His grandma lying on the operating table was his only family. She could understand how he felt at this moment.
When she was a little girl, she was taken away from school by her aunt and sent to the hospital. Just like now, she was waiting at the door of the operating room. At that time, she was still young and might not understand what had happened, but the fear in her heart was real.
Emily hesitated for a moment but didn't get rid of him. She slowly held his hand and said firmly, "I'm sure!"
"Hmm/ Simon responded in a very low voice and clenched his hands harder.
Then, none of them made a sound. They just sat side by side, and their folded hands never separated. Until the operation was pushed away, the surgeon in a green surgical suit came out.
Before he could take off his mask, Simon had already stepped forward and asked, "Director Lee, how is it going?"
Director Lee said seriously, "The tumor is located at a higher place, so the incision was slightly above the expected place. I managed to keep 40% of her stomach! Generally speaking, the surgery is very successful. Next, her condition is up to the following chemotherapy. I'm very confident about her!"
Hearing the last sentence, Simon finally relaxed, "Director Lee, thank you!"
"You're welcome, it's all my duty!" Director Lee patted him on the shoulder, put the mask in his pocket and said, "The patient is still under anesthesia, and she will be sent back to the ward later. 24 hours after the operation is very critical, so you need to pay more attention! If there is anything wrong, you can come to me at any time!"
"I understand!" Simon nodded and thanked him again.
Grandma was pushed back to the ward. One nurse was hanging the infusion bottles while the other was adjusting the ventilator.
Simon stepped forward to adjust the speed of infusion, and then his cell phone rang. The anxious voice of the nurse of his department came from inside. "Dr. Chin, the patient in 39th bed has a pain in the chest. He might have a heart attack. Now he has fainted. It is preliminarily determined that the coronary artery in his heart has ruptured. The doctor on duty can't handle it. The director asked me to call you. Can you go back to the hospital now?"
In fact, like the police, doctors had to get back to work whenever they were needed.
Even in the rest, if there was a need, doctors should get back immediately. Although he didn't want to leave for a second after grandma was just pushed out of the operating room, he had to shoulder the responsibility.
In just a few seconds, Simon had made the decision. He strode out of the ward without hesitation. "I am now at the hospital's gastrointestinal surgery department. HI be there right away!"

Hate deception and Abby and Dylan take the cake ,ugh...
NO!!! Tina belongs with Wilson…. Let Dylan and Abby get together...
Wow, once again the villain messes up the true love, Abby needs to go back abroad. And Tina’s true identity as the daughter of Bill Ambrey needs to be exposed! Then the families can “convenience marry” !! Abby is a witch....
Too bad Wilson can’t figure out that his and Tina’s ex’s and his cousin Desmond are conniving creeps!...
Anthea is so stupid, lying and leaving the man who loves her more than life itself. 🤬...
She deserves to be unhappy, being with someone she doesn’t love because of resentment for the exact thing she is doing, hopefully she ends up with no one. Calvin is a wimp and doesn’t love her, just wants a wife to please his family....
So the same basic story as Simon and Addy but stupid Emily is going to marry him! What a hypocrite! Ugh...
Emily gets more stupid every chapter, when did she pickup Calvin as a fiancé!!?? This story line is awful….very sad to do to Simon what she “thought” he had done but didn’t. She is truly a dumb woman. Simon never loved or really even cared for Addy….what the hell is she doing with someone she doesn’t even know or like/love. Awful 😢...
Emily is a fool, don’t let go of the man who truly loves you. Let go of the past, of which he did nothing but help someone who saved his life, and be happy with him… he is your soulmate....
Nothing like cutting off your nose to spite your face Emily. Just stupid! Ugh 😩...
