"Don't worry too much. The operation will go smoothly."
"I'll stop worrying only when you're able to leave this place."
"I will be able to get out of here safely. And you will too." She put on her clothes and picked up her phone. "I'm leaving then."
"Okay. Be careful on the way there, and call me if anything happens."
"I will."

It took her less than ten minutes to return to the ward.
Fortunately, Jed and the bodyguard had not returned yet.
After going to the bathroom to wash up, she walked back to the bedside and picked up her phone to turn it on.
She realized that Jed had sent her a message at four that morning.
[I can't do the operation. My girlfriend forced me to go back home. | had no choice but to leave. I'm sorry!] Avery could not have been more stunned when she read that. She knew that Jed had a girlfriend after hearing him talk about her when they ate together.
Moments later, the bodyguard pushed open the door of the ward and walked in with some breakfast.
Avery put down her phone at once, but she did not manage to adjust her expression in time.
"Is something wrong?" The bodyguard put down the breakfast on the table. "I went to call Jed this morning, but there was a 'Do Not Disturb’ sign hanging on the door of his room. | wonder what's going on." "He left." Avery then explained, "He sent me a message at four in the morning, saying that he couldn't do the operation on me." "Ah?! What's going on? Did the two of you argue or something?" The bodyguard was shocked.
The operation was supposed to be done that day, so how was it going to proceed if the chief surgeon had left somewhere! "He said that he had to leave because his girlfriend forced him to go back," Avery said calmly. "It's fine. | can find another surgeon to operate on me. It's not that difficult an operation." "That irresponsible of him! Even if his girlfriend forces him to go back, he can always go back after he'd done the operation! Is it that hard to wait a day longer?" The bodyguard found it very strange. "Don't you think it's a little weird? He was fine when | went back to the hotel with him last night." Avery looked at the bodyguard. "Maybe his girlfriend had a big fight with him." "Even if that was the case, he can't just leave you here! He shouldn't have agreed to operate on you if he couldn't commit to it." The bodyguard sneered. "And he even said a couple of times that we would all leave after the operation." "He must've had no other choice. Don't blame him anymore. I'll call him again to ask once the operation is over." Avery had calmed down by then.
She took out the breakfast that the bodyguard brought :e,?QIR< ate a small bite.

"He said last night that your condition has deteriorated. Is it possible that he isn't confident with your operation and decided to leave at the last minute?" The bodyguard started to wonder.
"Impossible. Even if my condition deteriorated, the operation will just be a little more complicated than before.
He is capable of performing the operation regardless, and I'm confident that's not the reason." Avery knew what Jed was capable of and she would not have requested him to operate on her if he lacked the skills to do so.
Nevertheless, it was still puzzling that he left before the operation. He could have left at any time, but he chose to leave the night before the operation, which caught Avery by surprise.
"That's utterly deplorable of him! You should end your friendship with him, Miss Tate!" The bodyguard felt angry on her behalf. "Let's find another doctor after breakfast!" "Okay." After breakfast, Avery and the bodyguard went to the doctor from that hospital.
The doctor was beyond surprised when he heard that Jed had left.
"I thought you had a good relationship with him! | could see that he was very attentive toward your condition before this..." "We're very angry right now! He didn’t even bother to explain anything and left just like that! He's a real b*stard, that guy!" the bodyguard lambasted angrily. "Can you confirm that you are able to operate on her? "| can, but | can't guarantee that the operation will be successful... After all, my medical skills aren't as good as Doctor Hutchinson..." The doctor had an embarrassed look. "If you don’t trust me, you can always seek out specialists from other countries." Avery pondered for a moment: "I didn't say | don't trust you. I'll leave my operation in your hands." Her condition was deteriorating quickly, and she could not drag it out much longer.
