“He has to be discharged.” Hades gave him the ultimatum. “Approve it now.”
“No way!” Wyatt rejected him again. “You have to think about his future. Do you want him to be crippled forever? I’m not trying to blow my horn, but only I can do this operation in Astoria, and I can’t even guarantee that it will be successful.”
“Please let him preserve his last bit of dignity.”
Wyatt understood what Hades was trying to say as he looked into his eyes. He’s right… A man values his dignity more than his life. Satan and I are in an awkward situation now. Why would a man like him want me to perform an operation on him? It’d be alright if the operation turned out to be successful, but what if it failed? After a moment of silence, he asked, “Have you two thought this through?”
“Yes.”
“Alright. I’ll approve it.”
In the afternoon, Hades utilized his private jet to send his brother home. Wyatt and the medical staff escorted Satan to make sure that his legs weren’t moved.
When Jude came to look for Wyatt, he was packing up his stuff. She stepped into his office and asked, “Where are you going?” Why is he packing up his stuff when he’s going to perform a surgery on Satan?
“Satan has been discharged, and I have no more patients here, so I’m going back to the central hospital.”
“He’s been discharged?” Jude saw that Satan was wrapped like a mummy. Even though she didn’t try to find out more about his condition, she knew that he must be badly injured. The fact that Wyatt was transferred to this hospital suggested that the operation was difficult to perform.
“His brother came to fetch him personally. I didn’t agree to it at first, but they insisted on leaving. They left in a private jet just now. I saw them off.” Then, he passed her a note. “He left it for you.” He paused for a moment. “I didn’t read it.”
Jude took the note and saw that it was indeed Satan’s handwriting. ‘Thanks. I hope you’ll be happy.’
