Chapter 197: Chapter 197 Impossible!
Elder Piers’s face was pale with fright. He always held Brandon Piers’s hand but found Abigail Green unusually calm, so he looked over.
He knew the engagement between the two came out of nowhere. But after all, the engagement ceremony was held in front of the public, and with Teddy, they were supposed to live together in the future. This attitude…
Elder Piers couldn’t help but frown. No feelings could be cultivated, but if Abigail didn’t cherish Brandon, it wouldn’t last long.
Abigail felt Elder Piers’s gaze and then reacted, explaining softly, “Grandpa, don’t worry, he’ll be okay.”
“Okay?” Although Elder Piers was old, he was not an ordinary person. His sharp eyes scrutinized Abigail.
The surgery failed, his chest was opened again, and now he was having difficulty breathing, at risk of shock at any time, calling this okay? So what counted as not okay?
Abigail met Elder Piers’s gaze and then looked at Brandon Piers on the stretcher, suddenly realizing that this man might not have told Elder Piers that he had undergone surgery. She frowned lightly, unsure how to answer for a moment.
At that moment, the young master, who had just been pale and seemed ready to ascend to heaven, suddenly opened his eyes, grasping Elder Piers’s hand back. “Grandpa, Abigail is right. I’m okay.”
Elder Piers was stunned, looking at his grandson, who had appeared to be on the brink of death just now. “This… what’s going on?”
James Carter timely lowered his presence, as he also didn’t know what was going on with young master. Rumor had it that the surgery had failed. But after the last X-ray, his heart miraculously recovered. However, this news was sealed by the young master. Not many people knew about it. But judging from the current situation, Miss Abigail Green also seemed to be aware.
Naturally, it was not his place to explain such things to Elder Piers.
Brandon Piers had not been sure whether the surgery was successful or if there would be other complications, so he didn’t tell Elder Piers about Abigail performing the surgery. Seeing Elder Piers’s questioning glance at Abigail, he finally spoke up, “Grandpa, my surgery was very successful.”
Elder Piers stared at his grandson’s face. He understood his words, but couldn’t comprehend them for a moment. What did he mean by his surgery was very successful? Dean Foster wasn’t there at the time. How did the surgery become successful?
“It’s true.” Brandon Piers knew this situation would happen, emphasizing again, then looking at Abigail on the side.
Elder Piers confusedly followed his gaze, only to see Abigail Green looking calm and indifferent. Turning back to look at his grandson, he knew that at the critical moment, Abigail closed the chest for Brandon. But this girl was so young. Dr. Jeffrey Foster couldn’t guarantee the surgery’s success. How could she possibly do it?
But Brandon Piers nodded towards Elder Piers, “Yes, Abigail was the chief surgeon.”
“Wha… what?” Elder Piers had just denied the possibility in his mind and was now shocked beyond words by Brandon Piers’s statement.
Not only Elder Piers, but even James Carter, who had been trying to reduce his presence, widened his eyes. He lost his usual composure as a private doctor, looking incredulously at Abigail Green.
“Impossible!” James Carter denied without even thinking. As Brandon’s private doctor, he understood Brandon’s heart condition better than anyone. Dr. Smith, who had a ten-out-of-ten success rate, had passed away suddenly. Other doctors, however skilled, could only achieve a success rate of seventy to eighty percent, like Dean Foster.
But Abigail Green was just a freshman medical student… Impossible!
Could it be that just because she had the same name as Dr. Smith, she could become Dr. Smith?
Elder Piers had the same thought as James Carter, Impossible!
Abigail looked at their reactions and then at Brandon Piers, awkwardly rubbing her nose. It was indeed hard to explain!
