Olivia remained calm. "Alright. I can't do it.'
Since he had interacted with Olivia in the past, Joel knew her personality well. He quickly tried to de- escalate the situation.
"Ladies, please. Krystal, you should make yourself scarce for now. You don't know Vanessa that well. The surgery she performed last year was harder than this one.
"That time, she removed a bullet from the heart. She managed to save that patient."
"That has to be a lie. How could the person still be alive after being shot in the heart?"
Olivia sneered. "You won’t get it if you don't even know anything about medicine. Do I have to explain every detail to you? Even if I did, you still won't understand.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"Mr. Tucker, since I'm not welchere, I won't be performing this surgery anymore. You should just get someone else to do it."
"Please don't. You're already here. You should go take a look. What if you can save him?"
"Sure."
Olivia followed Joel into the intensive care unit. She had already seen the reports and the X-ray images of the man.
She walked into the ward that was filled with the scent of disinfectant. Then, she saw the man lying in bed.
This man could frequently be seen on the news, and yet he was lying there on the verge of death.
Krystal resembled him a little. No wonder Krystal was so arrogant. With a background like hers, anyone would be a little unhinged.
"When was he shot?"
"5:30 am."
Olivia paused momentarily. Jack was injured during that period, too. A scary thought formed in her mind. Was Jack the one who tried to assassinate Mason?
As soon as she thought of that, Olivia knew she should have no part in this. Jack risked his life to kill this man, and yet she promised Ethan to save him.
"What's wrong? Is there sunforeseen difficulty?"
Olivia remained calm. "Alright, I've gotten a grasp on the situation. Let's talk outside." She desperately wanted to know if Mason was the one Jack wanted to kill.
As soon as she walked out, Ethan approached her. "How is it?"
Olivia was thinking about how she could get out of this situation. Then, a series of footsteps could be heard. It was Yale.
There was a bespectacled old man with white hair in a suit next to him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOlivia knew the old man. He was the renowned cardiovascular specialist Lionel Gatsby. It was as Ethan expected. Yale had already found Lionel.
Yale had wanted to wait for a little more to avoid suspicion. He wanted to pretend that it was hard to find Lionel.
He didn't expect Ethan to bring another medical genius. Yale couldn't possibly sit idly by anymore. He changed his plans in a panic and hurried over with Lionel in tow.
"Mrs. Heath, I've found Dr. Gatsby. He can operate on Mr. Heath."
Tatiana looked at Ethan with a troubled expression. "But Ethan also brought a renowned doctor. She said she can do the operation, too."
Yale sized Olivia up.
Olivia was completely unfazed. She didn't mind him looking at her. She had a disguise anyway. He couldn't possibly glean anything from her face.
"Is this the lady?" Yale was very composed compared to Krystal, even though he knew she was the one who saved Ethan's life.
His gaze was icy, but he had to maintain a gentlemanly facade.
Yale took care of internal affairs while Ethan carried out international missions. Ethan hid his identity and helped Mason take down shady organizations. Yale was an elegant man.
One stood in the light, while the other hid in the shadows. They had never crossed paths until they started to vie for more power.
