The runaway groom novel (Irene and Isaac) novel Chapter 767

Chapter 767

While everyone was caught off guard, Irene ran forward and lay Dennis flatly on his back, then barked at Finn to get an oxygen mask while punching Dennis in the heart.

It was an emergency resuscitation technique, using the jolt of the impact to restore the heart's regular rhythm.

Dennis's sudden suffocation was due to his malignant ventricular arrhythmia, stopping his heart and causing loss of breath.

Finn soon returned with the oxygen mask, which Irene put over Dennis's face while continuing to massage his heart.

The process lasted for five minutes until Dennis's heart rate returned to normal and his breathing turned smooth again.

He was fortunate that help reached him in time.

Helping him sit up, Irene asked, "Do you feel better?"

Dennis nodded. ’Much better."

"Director..."

Everyone was watching him worriedly.

Although they were working at a research center, they were all well-versed in the medical field, and Dennis's symptom was enough for them to tell that it was something serious.

Still, there were many conditions that led to abrupt loss of breath, so they could not nail down which it was precisely. Getting to his feet, Dennis waved them off. "Oh, I'm really not the strapping youth I once was..."

'You're sick, sir," Finn said.

Everyone else agreed. ’You have to tell us. Don't leave us hanging."

The director sighed at their vocal concern. *1 didn't want to worry anyone, but fine. It's malignant ventricular arrhythmia.*

"Sir...?*

"That's enough, I'm fine," Dennis said sternly-he never told anyone because he did not want them to worry. "Anyway, I'm now announcing that I'm formally retiring, and Irene here will be your director. Please give her your support so that I have peace of mind, or I don't think I could leave this place in peace."

"We will,* Finn spoke up first once again.

Everyone agreed. "Don't worry, sir. We will do our best to help Director Spencer and develop the best artificial heart there is."

It was the assurance Dennis needed.

"Good. You're all good people," he said, and added since he was in a good mood, "Lunch is on me."

"Actually, I'll pass," Irene said.

"What? You're the main event...*
