A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 387

A long time had passed before the doors of the operating theater finally swung open. Summer jumped out of Mark's arms at once, ran up there and grabbed the doctor’s arm. Anxiety and fear filled her.

She was afraid to hear the outcome she dreaded to hear. She was scared to hear the worst news.

Mark watched and took her fears and hesitations all i n. He stood up, strode forward, and put his arm around her and drew her into his embrace. Just when he was about to speak, Summer spoke with a somewhat trembling voice. "How is my daughter, doctor?"

She looked calm on the outside, but the tremble coming from her body gave her emotion away. So he held her tightly and supported her silently.

The warmth of his embrace calmed her. She was less anxious. At least her legs had stopped shaking.

The doctor then looked at the man beside Summer. "M r. Valentine-"

"Just tell me." Mark interrupted the doctor, his voice low and cold. His shapely hand involuntarily tightened the grip on Summer's shoulder. The blue veins on the back of his hand revealed his truest

emotions.

"The surgery was successful. The child is out of danger and will be transferred to the general ward. Don't worry, Mr. Valentine."

Summer felt like she was pulled back from hell and came back to life, warmth returning to her hands and feet upon hearing the doctor's words.

The stiff muscles on Mark’s face and body eased up. H e held out a hand. "Thank you, doctor.”

"Don’t mention it. It is my job." The doctor also held out a hand to shake Mark's hand.
