NovelEnglishChapter 47: After chastising the noisy onlookers, Ferris returned to the operating room. This particular room, designed for interns to observe and learn through its glass window, was being used temporarily due to the urgency of Caylee's condition and the hospital's packed surgery schedule. This setup inadvertently provided everyone a rare glimpse of Dr. Riss in action. However, what could have been a celebrated moment in the medical community was turned into a farce by Sansa and Ayla's behavior Once Ferris disappeared back into the operating room, scornful eyes turned to the embarrassed duo. Ayla felt utterly humiliated, wishing she could vanish on the spot. Sansa, her cheeks burning with embarrassment, whispered reproachfully to her daughter, "Didn't you say Dr. Riss was a young man in his thirties? How did he suddenly beca woman?" Ayla's complexion turned from pale to a flushed red. She bit her lip and lowered her head, too mortified to respond "Hahaha..." A quiet chuckle arose from someone nearby. "Mrs. Nash, why even ask? It's clear Ayla was just making things up." Another added, "She claimed to know Dr. Riss and even boasted about dining with her, yet she didn't even know Riss's gender. It's laughable." "The Nash family really is a joke," someone else commented. "Without Dr. Brian Nash, they're just clinging to tall tales to stay relevant." As these taunts circulated, Balthasar's expression darkened with fury. He clenched his teeth and snapped at Ayla, "Get out of here! Stop making a spectacle of yourself!” But Ayla didn't want to leave. More than anything, she yearned to meet Dr. Riss, earn her recognition, and perhaps even becher apprentice. It was her greatest dream. With Riss so close, how could she possibly leave without at least attempting to speak to her? However, the mocking stares around her were too much for her to bear. Fearing additional humiliation if Riss were to dismiss her, she hesitated for a moment, gave Connor a wary look, and then slipped away in shame. Sansa, equally humiliated, also stole a glance at Connor before awkwardly making her exit Connor, who disliked crowds and noise, had retreated to a corner when the crowd surged out of the elevator, going unnoticed by many. However, Sansa had seen him and, in an attempt to impress him, had boasted loudly, only to end up embarrassing herself Connor watched the mother and daughter's debacle with an indifferent gaze. Such minor incidents were beneath his concern. Balthasar had intended to use this occasion to meet Dr. Riss, to express his gratitude for recognizing his granddaughter's talents and for the MindEase Elixir. He had hoped to gain srecognition in front of the crowd. Instead, his plans crumbled spectacularly, and he left with a defeated air, his face ashen. Following Balthasar's lead, the other members of the Nash family discreetly exited The remaining crowd's attention briefly followed the departing family, their expressions filled with derision. Just then, the lights in the operating room flickered off, causing a stir among the onlookers "Oh no, did the power go out?" "It's not a power outage. The hallway lights are still on. It must be just the operating room." "Could there be an electrical issue in there? Oh no, what if it affects Dr. Riss's procedure?"
The concern grew among the crowd. However, the tension was short-lived as the lights in the operating room flickered back on within seconds! Spon after, the door opened and the medical team stepped out. "Dr. Riss!" the crowd exclaimed in unison, rushing towards the door with renewed excitement. Connor, too, moved forward, eager to see the famous doctor
