Chapter 5
Dwayne’s expression darkened. It seemed he didn’t expect her to propose a divorce. “No, I won’t agree to that
Dorothy was stunned
Why? Could it be.]
Meanwhile, he continued, “Grandma wouldn’t say yes anyway.“1]
Then he closed the door
Dorothy stood in place for a long time, stifling. She couldn’t help but laugh at how ridiculous her speculation was
For a fleeting moment, she had actually thought she was the reason he didn’t agree to a divorce
But it was simply because he thought Aliyah wouldn’t approve it]
Little did he know she had already had Aliyah’s permission]
Dwayne didn’t step into the bedroom again that night. Early the next morning, when the maid, Emma Walsh, came to work, he was already nowhere to be seen.
Dorothy had breakfast as usual. After Emma cleaned the rooms and came out, she asked, “Mrs, Lambert, why are so many things missing?
Dorothy’s hand in mid air froze slightly
Even Emma noticed this.[]
fut Dwayne was completely oblivious]
Obviously, he didn’t care about her at all
She forced a smile. “It was just old things that I didn’t need anymore, so I tossed them away.”
Emma didn’t ask anything again.[]
At noon. Weston called her, saying there was a major surgery and the patient was in critical condition. Since the doctor skilled in craniotomy was on a business trip, she was the only one who could perform.]
She rushed to the hospital, changed into the scrubs, entered the operating room, and saw all the attending physicians as well as Sonia
The entire operating room was filled with a thick smell of blood.[]
Other doctors approached the patient to check his wounds. Unlike them, Sonia didn’t even dare to come closer to him. She had been frowning and retching,
“You’re here, Dr. Acosta.” The anesthesiologist walked toward Dorothy. “The patient fell from a scaffold on a construction site and has just been sent here. He’s now unconscious.
Upon seeing the patient. Dorothy couldn’t help but gasp
With a twenty centimeter steel bar piercing the patient’s skull through his eye, it was simply a miracle that he was still alive
Fighting back nausea, Sonia said, “Dr, Acosta, are you sure you can do this? The patient may die at the slightest mistake.”
“Who else but me? You?“]
Dorothy’s reply made Sonia’s expression darken.]
Ignoring her, Dorothy put on her gloves and said to the other doctors, “We’ll start with decompressive craniectomy and try to clear the hematoma as much as possible.“]
The anesthesiologist and assistants were ready]
