"Don't worry, your daughter is fine," the female doctor scratched her head awkwardly, feeling guilty for being so focused on the previous surgery.
"Oh, she's fine? Thank goodness," Harrison breathed a sigh of relief, tears welling up in his eyes.
The tension on Dominic's lips naturally relaxed, his eyes turning upward as if to say, "I knew she wouldn't fail."
But Gordon, he stretched his neck to peer into the operating room.
A surgery that was doomed to leave the patient in a vegetative state or result in death had been turned around by Alessia. Was Alessia really that amazing?
As Gordon pondered, he saw the doctor tightly holding Harrison's hand. "Uncle, could you tell me the name of that young lady and where she worked before? The surgery she just performed was simply stunning, even more exquisite than our attending physician's technique."
Harrison
"Yes, I'm pregnant."Bianca breathed out lightly, releasing her intertwined fingers.The nurse looked at the IV in her hand and cautiously replied, "In that case, let me go and consult the doctor just to be safe. Please wait a moment."About to leave, Bianca stopped the nurse. "Wait."The nurse turned back, and Bianca pleaded, "Could you please keep my pregnancy a secret for me, especially from my brother?"The nurse was about to respond when Dominic walked in from outside the ward. His expression was serious. "Not telling me? How long do you plan to hide it? Bianca, you've really become quite capable."Bianca frowned, panic flickering in her eyes. She hadn't expected to be caught by Dominic. Seeing Alessia, Riley, and the rest coming in behind him, her mind went blank for a moment.It felt like her brain had short-circuited. 
Alessia said, "Just a moment ago, I was worried that something might happen to you. But now, I suddenly realized that living as a coward is more painful than death. Since you can't step out of the darkness, then stay trapped in it forever. Just consider it payback for my grandfather rescuing you from the fire pit, all in vain."Bringing up her grandfather left Riley at a loss, but his eyes, devoid of hope for the future, sparked with brilliance. His thin lips moved slightly.Unconsciously, he took a step back, away from the vehicles and the road.Seeing him like this, Alessia knew that his desire for death had waned.While she felt relieved, she also felt heartache."Brother, I hope that you can emerge from the shadows of the past. Can you please think about it for my sake?"Alessia's emotions were laid bare as she gently placed her hand on Riley's shoulder,
"Bianca, I've examined your injury, and although it looks serious, it's actually not a big problem. Rest well, and when you're better, I'll give you some scar removal cream that I've developed myself. After applying it, you won't have to worry about scarring in the future.""Thank you, Tiffany." Bianca's gaze was complex. I treated you like a sister, but you want to be my sister-in-law?Unfortunately, the position of sister-in-law had already been taken. What was she supposed to do now? Genuine sentiments couldn't be easily taken back, and besides, she felt that her sister-in-law and her brother were a perfect match.Bianca's gaze swept back and forth between Alessia, Dominic, and Tiffany, just as Christian's call came in.Alessia heard Christian's voice and sensed that things might be uncomfortable with her and Tiffany here, so she decided to take her leave proactively."Bianca,
"Alright, darling, your analysis is correct. Elle will be fine."Alessia felt that her younger son's thinking was right. This was the old mansion of the Carter family, with a comprehensive security system. If her daughter encountered any trouble in the old mansion, there would have been some commotion.Moreover, her daughter was obedient and wouldn't have sneaked out. At this time, she must be playing in the garden.Alessia wasn't too concerned. She chatted with Old Lady Carter for a while. When it was time for dinner, Eleanor still hadn't returned.At that moment, Dominic returned.After searching around and failing to find Eleanor, everyone realized there might be a problem. An unsettled expression began to appear on their faces."Let's check the surveillance first; Elle couldn't have gone missing," Alessia said calmly.Her calmness did
When Grandma Carter saw the sweet smile on Eleanor's face and realized she wasn't upset, her heart finally settled. She kindly beckoned Eleanor over."Great-grandma, I'm sorry for making you wait. I got carried away playing and lost track of time."Eleanor rushed into Old Lady Carter's arms, affectionate yet obedient.Having only met twice, Eleanor had already won Old Lady Carter's heart.Old Lady Carter held Eleanor's waist, stroking her slender arms, full of concern. "My dear, I didn't wait long. I was just afraid you might fall."Eleanor knew that Old Lady Carter cared for her and didn't feel impatient at all. She got up and sat on the chair next to Old Lady Carter.With an animated expression and a childish voice, she said, "Great-grandma, I won't fall. I saw my Grandma, and Grandma likes me."Old Lady Carter was momentarily taken aback by Eleanor'
Dominic's throat constricted, his voice hoarse, as if facing a long-avoided illness hidden within himself, and today, he finally resolved to eradicate it."Do you remember the summer of the second year after my father left home, when you suddenly decided to divorce Grandpa? I heard your argument in the room that day."Madam Carter's clasped hands paused, her eyes filled with surprise. The next moment, it seemed like she understood everything.Despite her well-preserved appearance and youthful face, Madam Carter's expression was filled with heartache and self-blame."Is that why you've avoided relationships all these years?"Parents are a child's best teachers. Her disobedient son was notorious for his philandering ways, and when Dominic was young, he was closest to his grandfather. Their marriage had left him disillusioned with love.Dominic remained silent,
Alessia shook her head and took several sips of water in a row.She didn't know how she had returned to her room, but she was clear about her current thoughts: she wouldn't reconcile with Dominic.Though the delayed feelings still made her heart race, that period had passed, and those feelings were no longer needed.But there was one thing: Dominic's apology made her feel comfortable. That ‘I'm sorry’ summarized the three years she had once devoted to him.She calmed her emotions, sat on the bed, placed the laptop on her knees, skillfully opened the work interface, and saw her phone vibrating on the bedside table.It was M calling.She pressed the answer button, and M's anxious voice came through."Boss, it's bad. Someone infiltrated the database and searched for the video of your surgery last year. This person's methods are very sophisti
IronRose held a different significance for him.It was a brilliant color in his youth.IronRose always had endless topics to discuss with him, and she would accompany him through every night of despair.He would also share every moment of happiness with her.At that time, he didn't have feelings for her; he just regarded her as a friend.When she stood him up, that friendship was buried deep in his heart, and as he grew older, it became a regret.When Tiffany said she was IronRose, he was indeed surprised, although this surprise had nothing to do with love.But it still made him jubilant.He wanted to preserve the beauty of that brilliant youth forever, without deception.With this in mind, Dominic tentatively asked: [One last question, when did you get into the hacking indus
