Madam Escaped Again, Sir (Lillian Hawkins and Eric Walker) novel Chapter 207

The nurse looked down at the person. “I’m sorry, Director Lancaster. It was my fault that I didn’t notice that.”

“Enough! Take her hand off her stomach.” Tim shot a frustrated gaze at her.

The nurse then responded with an affirmative hum and placed her hand on Sonia, ready to take Sonia’s paw off her stomach while he coldly watched aside.

Suddenly, the man noticed a red mole on Sonia’s wrist around her pulse, whereupon he appeared to be stunned. “Wait a second!”

The nurse was startled by his reaction as she froze. “W-What’s wrong, Director Lancaster?”

Tim didn’t say a word as he placed the scalpel in his hand aside before grabbing Sonia’s hand from the nurse’s palm to take a closer look at the red mole. Why is there a red mole on her wrist? With furrowed eyebrows, the man tried to rub the red mole with his thumb to see whether it was just some red ink stain. However, he quickly realized that it was never going to fade away, no matter how hard he tried to rub it.

Oh gosh! That means her red mole is genuine. In fact, I can even feel her mole bulging on her skin. At the thought of that, his heart raced a million times faster as he cast a complicated look on Sonia. Suddenly, he was reminded of the girl who saved him many years back and noticed that Sonia’s eyes had resembled his savior. Now that he had discovered her red mole, he found himself wondering whether she was the little girl who had rescued him.

Nonetheless, Tim was soon bewildered by another unanswered question when he thought of the red mole that Tina also had. Thus, he found himself in deep confusion as he wondered which one of the two was his savior. As he placed his hand on his forehead, he was overwhelmed by his puzzlement. After all, he had assumed all along that Tina was the girl who saved him in the past the moment he saw her red mole and her eyes. Nevertheless, now that he had made the shocking discovery, he was no longer sure of his assumption.

Upon noticing his reaction as he tightly held the patient’s wrist, the nurse asked in a bewildered manner. “Are you alright, Director Lancaster?”

“I’m fine.” Tim closed his eyes and took a moment to pull himself together. “Keep the equipment away.”

“Keep the equipment away?” The nurse blinked in confusion. “Are we calling off the surgery now?”

“For the time being.” Tim kept his eyes on Sonia. Deep in his heart, he told himself that he would never do anything to Sonia until he learned the identity of the girl who had saved him back then. After all, if she was the girl, there would be no need for him to seek revenge on her anymore whereas if Tina was the one, he could always rethink his plan and wait for the perfect chance to strike against Sonia.

Not knowing why Tim would suddenly call off the surgery, the nurse silently kept the equipment away as she was extremely timid to further ask her intimidating superior.

“One more thing.” He glared at the nurse with a menacing look when something suddenly crossed his mind. “You will speak nothing of my reaction to this patient. No one should know about it. Is this clear?”

Knowing that Tina would call to check on Sonia later, he was certain that she would learn about Sonia’s recovery. By then, Tina would be sure to ask him why he had resisted when he had the chance to strike and if he chose not to answer, he knew that she would snoop around by herself. Thus, he instructed the nurse to keep the matter a secret in order to avoid arousing Tina’s suspicion.

When the nurse met Tim’s glacial cold eyes, she felt chills all over her body and repeatedly nodded. “Don’t worry, Director Lancaster. I will not say a thing; I promise.”

Upon noticing her fearful expression, Tim satisfactorily curled his lips upward and responded, “Okay, please proceed with the further arrangements for the patient and take her to the single ward.”

In the meantime, three men were standing outside the operation room at different corners of the walkway without minding each other’s business. When they heard the door opening, they quickly rushed to the doctor.

“How is she, Sonia?” Charles stood up and seized Tim’s arm while asking Tim in a desperately concerned manner.

Tim knitted his eyebrows and took the man’s arms off him. “She is fine.”
