NovelGoldChapter 517 Chapter 517 Lilian and Harry were both visibly excited.
"Yes, we'll be waiting for you outside!" they said.
Jessica nodded. "Alright." Stanley turned his gaze to Wendy. "I'm entrusting Jessica to you. I hope you won't fry anything underhanded." Truth be told, Stanley was still caught off guard by Wendy's sudden willingness to perform the surgery. Her change of heart was drastic, and it made him uneasy.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtCecelia immediately spoke up, her tone sharp. "Mr. Hawk, what are you implying? Are you threatening Wendy because of Jessica?" Halsey, equally displeased, added, "You'll regret this later." Stanley furrowed his brow, forming a sharp, displeased expression. He ignored Halsey and Cecelia, focusing instead on Wendy.
Wendy, unfazed, responded coolly. "Don't worry, Mr. Hawk Jessica, let's go. Tfor the surgery." Jessica, feeling reassured by Stanley's presence, smiled brightly and waved at him. "I'm going in now. With you around, Wendy won't dare to do anything to me!" With Stanley backing her, Jessica felt fearless, as if nothing could go wrong.
Wendy and Jessica reached the door to the operating room when a voice suddenly called out, "Wendy?" Wendy turned around, and her eyes lit up as the person she was waiting for finally appeared-Finnley Houle, a country doctor.
Finnley walked toward them, his expression warm. "Wendy, is it really you? You've grown so much!" Years ago, when Wendy was sent to the countryside, Finnley had been one of the few people who treated her kindly. Wendy felt immense gratitude toward him.
"Finnley, it's been so long! How have you been?" Wendy said pleasantly.
"I'm doing well. I heard you're a doctor now. That's such great news! You've always had a knack for medicine when you were younger, and I knew you'd do amazing things. Looks like I wasn't wrong about you. Haha!" Finnley chuckled.
Jessica eyed Finnley up and down. Seeing that he was from the countryside, she couldn't hide her disdain and impatience. "Wendy, enough chit-chat! It's tfor the surgery." Finnley glanced at Jessica, not recognizing her at all. He then looked over at Stanley, his expression shifting to one of surprise.
"It's you?" Stanley paused, his brow furrowing in thought. Finnley seemed familiar, but he couldn't place him. "Do we know each other?" Finnley nodded, grinning. "We do! Don't you remember? Years ago, when you were badly injured and ended up in the forest, a little girl brought you to a cave. The next morning, she cto find me, and I gave you smedicine." Stanley's eyes widened as the memory resurfaced. He remembered that night, huddling for warmth with a young 1/2 Chapter 517 girl in the cave. The next morning, groggy and confused, he saw the girl bring a country doctor in, who then gave him a shot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmStanley's voice softened with realization. "I remember now You saved my life that day, and I never had a chance to thank you properly."
Finnley waved his hand dismissively.
"No need to thankThe one who really saved you was that girl just is that girl. just did what You were badly hurt, and if it weren't for her, you'd have been dead long ago. You should be thanking her." Stanley turned to Jessica, a small smile tugging at his lips. Yes, that girl was Jessica. I found her later on." Finnley stared at Jessica in shock, his eyes wide. "What? Are you saying she was the one who saved you?" Stanley met Finnley's gaze evenly. "Am I wrong?" Of course he was he was dead wrong!
Jessica's face drained of color, her expression turning as pale as a ghost. She hadn't expected the m country doctor to be the sone Wendy had sent for all those years ago. The doctor was a key witness. He knew exactly who had truly saved Stanley's life.
Jessica's heart sank to the pit of her stomach. Why was he here now af what all times? She was about to undergo surgery-why was he showing up now? Desperately trying to regain control of her emotions, Jessica forced a smile.
"Stanley, I'm starting to feel a little discomfort. Let's not talk anymore. Let's just get the surgery over with."
