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. "Mr. Tucker, since I'm not welcome here, 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 repo

Rufus quickly walked up to Olivia. "You're Vanessa, right? I've heard Joel talk about you."Olivia suppressed the complicated emotions she was feeling. She feared that the others might pick up the change in her mood. So, she tried her best to make her voice seem steady. "Yes, Mr. Moran, I'm Vanessa.""I didn't expect the renowned Vanessa to be so young. I'll assist you with this operation. Any objections?" Before Olivia could turn him down, Krystal yelled, "Why should she be the one to operate, Mr. Moran?"She's not as experienced as Dr. Gatsby. Who will be responsible if anything happens to my father?""Krystal, I've seen videos of her performing surgery. She might be young, but she had steady hands and a calm demeanor. Lionel is pretty old. People like us don't have the reflexes of a younger person. Also …"Rufus didn't mention one crucial issue with Lionel. He shouldn't be allowed at the operating table. "Mr. Moran, I'm not doubting you, but both you and Mr. Tucker are

Olivia said innocently, "I witnessed a surgery with my teacher when I was a freshman. "A renowned doctor's hands were shaking in the operating room. That almost caused the patient to die. "My teacher was able to save the patient with great effort. Do you know who that doctor was?""Dr. Gatsby?""Yes. He has a neurological illness. Something like that is hard to cure. It gets out of control during stressful situations. "Mr. Heath's surgery is an extremely difficult one. The stress would almost definitely cause him to relapse.""So, everything was within your calculations?"Olivia shook her head. "It's not part of my calculation. It's just fate. He made the operation harder for me. I might not be able to save Mr. Heath. You need to prepare for the worst."Ethan didn't reply. He knew it wasn't Olivia's fault. Whether Mason lived or died, it was up to fate to decide. He looked out of the window at the snow. Olivia was browsing her phone in boredom. Ethan suddenly said, "The

Linus was mature and stoic. He had a very commanding presence. "I heard that you're the doctor that Ethan recommended. I trust you. Just do your best. At this stage, even if you fail, you won't be held accountable."Olivia didn't waste any more time. "I'll head into the operating room immediately."Rufus became hopeful when he saw Olivia. Olivia looked at her former teacher. He was the one who brought her to sit in and observe all sorts of surgeries when she was a freshman. Back then, she would always look up at him while she was learning and taking notes. At that moment, she became the leading surgeon, and her teacher was her assistant. I didn't disappoint you, teacher. Olivia frowned as Rufus brought her up to speed. She could see the worry and helplessness in his eyes. The feeling of helplessness was one of the worst feelings for a doctor when they couldn't do anything while they watched the patient die before them.Olivia spoke up. "Don't worry, teacher. It might b

Ethan nodded. "Okay. Right this way, please."He brought Olivia to a suite. They went in simultaneously. Ethan hugged her as soon as they closed the door. "Liv, it was all my fault. I shouldn't have crushed your dreams in the past."Back then, there were two reasons for Olivia to drop out. The first reason was that Olivia was married to him, and her identity as his wife would put her in danger. His spouse had to keep a low profile.The other reason was that Olivia was too outstanding. Ethan was so possessive that he didn't want her to attract the attention of other men.He finally realized how ridiculous he had been."Liv, I'm proud of you. You're my pride and joy," Ethan said sincerely. Olivia had grown so much in the past few years. What Ethan didn't know was she had spent most of her time reading all sorts of medical books and articles while he was bedridden. In the past, she had observed countless surgeries with her teacher. In the past few years, she had performed s
