Everleigh's suffering for so many years was directly related to him.
Why was she the only one suffering, while he was living in comfort?
Theodore's dispirited steps nearly caused him to fall to the ground.
His heart had all kinds of emotions as he didn't know whether he should be happy or sad.
At that time, Stainley looked at him with deep eyes and said, "You shouldn't have said it."
"Everleigh's life or death is uncertain, but he kept whining. What right does he have?" Christopher answered. At the same time, he hoped that Theodore could understand that from beginning to end, he had always been in Everleigh's heart.
Whether it was seven years ago, or seven years later, he would never have that chance again.
How could Stainley not know his way of doing things and his intention in it? Although he had made it clear last time, he still didn't feel relieved.
The three men waited at the entrance with complicated feelings.
After Felicia got the news, she went there immediately. Of course, she didn't tell anyone, but she knew very well that the matter wouldn't be hidden for a long time.
"Christopher, how is Everleigh?"
"Why are you here, Felicia?" He asked.
"Can I afford not to come over when such a big thing has happened? Jeez, you can't even protect your own wife," she said angrily.
Someone who couldn't protect his own woman was only a useless person.
Christopher lowered his head and said nothing.
Theodore was silent as well. He prayed in his heart that nothing would happen to Everleigh. At least, he would be given a chance to make things up to her.
The four of them stood at the door and waited for a long time. Finally, the light of the operating room went off, and the door was also opened.
Several of them quickly went up to ask Dr. Harrison.
Dr. Harrison swept his gaze across the crowd and sighed softly. "I did manage to save her life, but..."
"But what?" Theodore asked anxiously with his deep gaze fixed on him.
Dr. Harrison's eyes slightly sank, and he said reluctantly, "But her right hand is heavily injured. I'm afraid... It's impossible for her to hold a scalpel in the future."
His words were like a bolt of lightning, striking all of their heads open.
They all knew how enthusiastic Everleigh was about the field of medicine. If she couldn't perform any operations, it would be more miserable than dying to her.
Christopher's expression was blank. Trembling, he grabbed Dr. Harrison's hand and said in a choked voice, "Dr. Harrison, is there really nothing we can do about it?"
He was silent for a long time before he gently shook his head. "Even I can't find any other way, let alone ordinary people. However... It's not like there's no way out. Perhaps, there's some other way abroad. It's hard to say."
Theodore took a step back. There was panic in his eyes, as if he hadn't heard what he said just then.
"Thank you, Dr. Harrison." Felicia's face was also not very pleased, but she was the only one who was still rational.
He glanced at her, and was very unhappy at her for thanking him. Why should he be thanked for saving his own disciple?
Wouldn't he feel ashamed then?
She frowned slightly. She wondered why she felt that Dr. Harrison was a little unhappy.
At that time, Everleigh was pushed out. The blood stains on her face had been wiped off, and her little pale face was exposed, with no trace of blood at all.
Both of her eyes were tightly shut. If Dr. Harrison had not said that he was able to save her life, they would have thought that she was dead.
"Send her to the ICU and observe her for the whole night," Dr. Harrison said with an aching heart. His turbid eyes were slightly red.
