Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 146

Chapter 146

Before her right now was not an animal but a living, breathing person, a fool who had not hesitated to pave the way for her to approach the operating table again with his own life!

Hence, she would never allow anything to go wrong.

“I'm going to operate now. Prepare the hemostatic forceps and cotton, and pay attention to all the readings. Report to me immediately if there's any abnormality.”

“Understood.”

Bailey did not hesitate anymore. She pressed one hand on the flesh of his back while cutting into the middle of his back with the scalpel.

Blood began to seep out again, but her head was no longer dizzy this time. Other than a slight tremor on the hand holding the scalpel at the beginning, it did not happen again after that.

She had regained the feeling of holding a scalpel again.

It was a familiar yet unfamiliar experience, with joy and pain coexisting.

Eugene had died under her knife three years ago, and to compensate the child, she closed herself off in a lonely world and never touched a scalpel again.

After three years, she overcame her psychological barriers and finally emerged from the pain and despair of the past.

Zayron waited outside the operation room for twenty minutes and breathed a deep sigh of relief when he heard no commotion coming from inside.

“It seems that Mommy has overcome her psychological barriers. Don't worry, everyone. Her medical skills are superb, and she won't let anything happen to Mr. Luther.”

Dwayne and Ken heaved a sigh of relief after hearing what he said, and they became less anxious.

“That's good. Since she can approach the operating table, she will certainly be able to operate on Old Mr. Chivers. It seems that the shadow looming over the heads of the Luther and Chivers families will soon dissipate.”

Hearing that, Zayron pursed his lips and snorted. “You guys are relieved, but I'm feeling miserable. My mommy is so smart that she must've already guessed that this is a plan we made. I bet she'll skin me alive later.”

Dwayne arched his eyebrows and teased with a smirk, “This is simply an act of mutual consent. How could you get the best benefits from Mr. Luther without any sacrifice? Your mother was truly frightened because of you today, so I'm sure you won't have it easy later. You're on your own now.”

Zayron looked up at the sky, speechless. I let Bailey worry in vain just for that little bit of money. I'm such a jerk. No, it wasn't for the money, but mainly because I didn't wish to see Mommy feel guilty and blame herself. Old Mr. Chivers saved her granny and mommy, and she truly longs to repay this kindness. Otherwise, she wouldn't have locked herself in Vero's laboratory and suffered for six days. Mr. Luther is right. In my mommy's situation, it is necessary for her to receive harsh stimulation. Initially, I wanted to be the one getting injured and let Bailey operate on me, but Mr. Luther slapped me on the wrist and firmly disagreed. I must say that he's quite responsible, and more importantly, he loves Mommy with all his heart. Hmph! I have to admit that he has taste. As to whether he'll be able to win over Mommy, it all depends on his capabilities.

Three hours later, the door to the operating room opened, and Bailey walked out looking exhausted.

Dwayne quickly approached her and asked anxiously, “How is it? Was the operation successful?”

Until now, he did not dare to report this matter to the Luther family. The past three hours felt like an eternity to him, for he feared that Artemis would die on the operating table if an emergency occurred during the surgery.

Bailey massaged her forehead to dispel some fatigue before she rasped, “The operation was successful. The damaged heart has been repaired. He should wake up as soon as the anesthesia wears off. Do you have a guest room? Prepare one for me. I need a good rest.”
