Chapter 2634
"Let's begin," Chloe said, wheeling herself over to the bedside.
After stopping, Chloe shot Martin a glance and said, "Thank you for your help, Dr. Wyance."
"You're welcome. Now, let’s get started." Martin nodded at Chloe, appearing sincerely concerned about her.
Then, Chloe bit her lip and laid down on the operating table with the help of the nurse.
In fact, her original plan was all an act. If Nicole had not suddenly arranged for Martin to come in, she would not
even have had to participate in the surgery at all. She could have just left when the time was right. But now, Chloe
had to endure the entire surgical process no matter what. She was on the verge of erupting from anger, as she was
forced to suffer even more for no reason.
The surgery started smoothly. After the anesthesia had been administered, Chloe gradually lost consciousness...
When Chloe woke up again, she was already in the ward. Upon opening her eyes, she saw a room full of people,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtand she felt like she was in a daze.
"You're awake. How are you feeling?" Miley immediately grabbed Chloe's hand.
She looked concerned and was checking on her as if examining her physical condition.
However, she was actually whispering to Chloe, "Nicole and Dr. Wyance had planned everything. Shortly after the
surgery, you were pushed out. Martin asserted that Ghost Hand was a fake. He didn't admit it, and since then,
everyone has been waiting for you to wake up."
After hearing Miley’s words, Chloe jolted awake. 'So that is why everyone's gaze seemed off.’
As of that moment, Mr. Riddle Sr. had a cold frown on his face. Damien looked disappointed, Miley was anxious, and
both Dillion and Karen looked like they were gloating over the notion that they had contributed to exposing her.
She looked at Nicole, who was standing on the side with a look of indifference written all over her face. Martin, on
the other hand, appeared calm, but there was a hint of disdain in his demeanor.
Her heart sank bit by bit, but Chloe suppressed her nerves anyhow. She absolutely could not afford to lose control
at this moment.
"Mom, was there a problem with my surgery?" Chloe's mind flashed with a series of thoughts but in the end, she
decided to assess everyone’s attitudes toward her first.
"There was no problem because it wasn't even done," Karen said as if enjoying the show.
"What do you mean, Aunt Karen?" Chloe asked, pretending to be confused.
"No wonder you're a movie star. You acted really well!" Karen sighed. "What's wrong? Didn't Miley just tell you a
moment ago?"
'She's still pretending to be clueless! Miley just leaned toward her and murmured so much to her. Miley definitely
told her what was going on already!'
Chloe's face turned pale, and the hatred in her heart grew even stronger than before.
However, she could only play dumb and say, "Aunt Karen, I don't understand what you're saying."
"If you don't understand, that's fine. I just hope you can explain the situation with the fake 'Ghost Hand' clearly,"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmKaren said magnanimously.
Chloe was seeing red, but she continued feigning cluelessness anyway. "What do you mean 'fake Ghost Hand'? If
"Cut the crap. Dr. Wyance told us everything." Karen exposed Chloe, having lost her patience.
Chloe's eyes widened in astonishment as she looked at Martin.
With a puzzled look on her face, she asked, "Dr. Wyance, didn’t you say you didn't know 'Ghost Hand'? How are you
so sure he's fake?"
Martin was about to formulate a response when Chloe continued, "Although you have a good relationship with
Nicole, you are still a medical professional. How could you
treat me like this?"
Even though Chloe did not really say much in that remark, there was another intended meaning in those words she
was trying to convey.
Nicole raised an eyebrow and looked at Chloe, a hint of coldness flashing in her eyes.
Clearly, Chloe's implication was that Martin had lied to slander her in order to help Nicole.
"I did it for your own good. If I hadn't stopped the surgery in time, Miss Riddle, you wouldn't have been able to get
off the operating table, let alone stand up ever again," Martin rebuked, his tone clearly laced with displeasure.
