The Runaway Groom Chapter 812
The look in Ray’s eyes was basically saying: Are you kidding me?
Surgeries were not a game!
“Even if you’re a medical research staff, surgeries are only to be performed by doctors with the proper certification
and training. Do you have those?”
“I do,” Irene replied.
Ray stared fixedly at her in silence, surprised despite himself.
Still, she had remained calm since the start, and that was proof enough—the average person would be losing
composure once they found out that their family was facing mortal danger.
“But you’re not a doctor of this hospital. Even if you are a doctor, you’re not allowed to perform the surgery here,”
Ray told her.
Irene had more to say when Finn and several Hotmesh Research personnel arrived together, having heard about
Dennis’s condition.
“How is it going?” Finn asked.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Not good,” Irene replied.
“What?” everyone exclaimed at once.
Irene stayed silent, but Ray explained, “If you’re his family too, I’ll make it clear—you need to prepare yourself.”
“What?!”
“Was it really that serious?!”
Finn realized right then that was why Irene had him get the artificial heart—she knew about Dennis’s condition
already.
“Our doctors are saving him right now. Just be ready,” Ray said.
However, Irene stopped him again when he started toward the operating room again. “The artificial heart is here,
doctor. I’ll do it if you don’t dare to do it.”
Ray looked Irene in the eye. “I’ve made it very clear…”
“The rules are inflexible, but people aren’t.”
“I won’t let you perform the surgery no matter what you say.” Ray was clear, because he would never be able to
assume the responsibility if anything were to happen.
“Dr. Hall? Dr. Clegg is calling. The patient is going into shock.”
Ray turned to leave right then—he did not have the time to waste his breath with Irene.
“Shock?” Finn could not help turning toward Irene. “The director…”
Irene actually was not confident if she had to perform the surgery either, and she would have to assume
responsibility if anything were to happen!
Even so, she did not hesitate.
Taking the artificial heart from Finn, she followed Ray, who shot her a solemn glare, into the operating room. “You
can’t just barge in here!”
“The patient matters more right now,” Irene calmly replied.
Ray sighed. “Fine. I’ll make an exception, but you’re only allowed to look. Do not interfere—nurse? Help her scrub
up.”
“Thank you,” Irene said gratefully. She then followed the nurse to get changed.
When she returned to the operating room and the doors opened, she heard Mark Clegg say, “No, it’s not
working…”
Irene ignored all else as she rushed to the table, scanning every vital reading right then and deciding that Dennis
could still be saved.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTaking the defibrillator from Mark, she told a nurse to adjust the wattage. “Give me two hundred!”
“What…”
“I’ll take responsibility for anything that happens,” Irene said as she calmly proceeded.
Ray could tell that she was certainly a doctor and a remarkable one at that.
Seeing that she was so determined, he almost felt guilty—but he still retained his rationality as a doctor and told a
nurse to record a video.
That would serve as evidence. If Dennis died on the table, the other doctors and the hospital would assume no
responsibility.
The nurse whipped out her phone and aimed it at Irene. “Please repeat what you just said.”
Irene continued to work while stating solemnly, “I’ll take responsibility for anything that happens! The doctors here
have no responsibility for any mishaps!”
She certainly was putting everything on the line to save Dennis.
Once the nurse saved the video, Ray directed everyone to work with Irene.
They managed to revive Dennis’s heart thanks to Irene’s perseverance, but they were not out of the woods yet.
He would fall into another shock without surgery, and a second shock would make it further difficult to save him.
Irene had no time to think now. “Prep him for surgery!”
