Chapter 227 The Surgery Was A Success
Gradually, Stefan came back to reality. The rims of his eyes started to turn red, and he pursed his thin
lips hard. He thought of it over and over and couldn't help but smile. All at once, the gloominess and
ruthlessness in his eyes were gone.
The surgery was on. Martha and Rupert leaned against the wall, staring at the operating room without
a blink.
Stefan saw Rupert follow Martha closely and talk to her from time to time, and Martha nodded in
response.
He noticed Martha's face turning pale and her lips getting dry. The surgery had just begun. He was
afraid that she was too weak to wait for the result of the surgery.
Stefan checked the time and left without saying a word.
Martha heard the noise and looked up, only to see him leaving in silence.
She stared at his back for a few seconds and then took her eyes off him. She concentrated on the
operating room again.
"Jimmy will be fine. Don't worry," comforted Rupert gently.
Martha had fixed her eyes anxiously on the operating room since Jimmy went inside. She was so tense
up that she would freak out sooner or later.
"Yeah. He'll be fine," murmured Martha, not knowing she was responding to Rupert or just comforting
herself.
It broke Rupert's heart when he saw Martha's dark circles.
"Catch some sleep in the ward. I'll wait here and let you know when the surgery is finished."
It was true that Martha hadn't slept well recently. She lost sleep the whole night and couldn't stop
thinking of the surgical risks whenever she closed her eyes. It was killing her.
"I'm OK..."
She refused to leave. At that time, Stefan returned.
Before they realized it, Stefan simply grabbed Martha's hand, made her sit down on a bench nearby
and gave her a glass of hot milk. Martha could smell the delicious milk.
Martha frowned, said nothing, and heard Stefan's heavy voice, "I've talked to the doctor. The surgery
takes at least half a day. You're too weak, and you should take a nap in the ward."
His voice sounded extremely soft and tender, but Martha couldn't feel it any more.
She shook her head and said, "No. I'm OK."
"Listen to me. The surgical risks aren't severe. What matters is the 24-hour observation period after the
surgery. Jimmy will really need you then. You'll be too weak to keep him company if you don't take care
of yourself."
Martha wasn't pigheaded, and thought Stefan had made a point. She knew clearly that she had been
exhausted.
Later, she went back to the ward with the help of a nurse and took some IV fluids.
Rupert watched her leave and looked at Stefan coldly. After that, they both kept silent.
They had been waiting at the door for four hours until the indicator light went out. Stefan got nervous
and saw the surgeon coming out of the operating room.
"Doctor, how was it going?" Rupert stepped forward and asked.
"The surgery was a success. Jimmy will be fine if nothing is wrong with the observation period."
Hearing that, Stefan sighed with relief and put on a light smile.
"Thank you, doc." said Stefan.
He thought all his feelings were beyond words. At that moment, he just wanted to stay with Jimmy and
protect him for a lifetime.
Jimmy was transferred to the ICU and began his 24-hour observation.
The doctor said the surgery was very successful and told Stefan to chill out.
Rupert told Martha the good news as soon as she woke up.
She cried with joy and called her father instantly when she remembered her father and Bianca were still
waiting for the good news.
"Father. Bianca. The surgery was a success. Jimmy will be fine after the observation period."
"Oh, good! Thank God! Christ Jesus, thanks for being with Jimmy!" said Bianca with excitement.
They had been on pins and needles and waiting by the phone since this morning. Finally, they heard
the good news, which meant a lot to them.
Martha hung up the phone, went to the ICU and watched Jimmy through the window. Jimmy was still
asleep.
Rupert stayed and waited for Jimmy to wake up, but he realized Stefan was gone. Oddly, Stefan wasnovelbin
here one minute ago. Where had he gone?
Stefan had confirmed that Jimmy's health condition was stable and seen Martha had come back and
wait at the door.
He felt relieved and left for Rhys' ward. Rhys was still unconscious.
