Chapter 1456

"But where's Dr. Wagner? There's only half an hour left until the surgery, but he's not here yet. How unprofessional!"

Francine tutted disapprovingly as she glanced at her watch. Brain surgeon or not, how dare he neglect the heir of Hunt Enterprise?

"Let's wait a little while longer. Dr. Wagner usually arrives right on time, and besides, he only agreed to do this surgery because of his friendship with Mr. Hunt."

"Hmph! Let's see how great he is then! He'd better cure my son, or it's over for him." Francine huffed as she sat in the corridor, forcing herself to be patient. 1

Meanwhile, Seraphina stood in an isolated area, wiping away her tears as her gaze turned cold. She fished out her phone and called an unregistered number. "Turns out they don't care about me at all, so I don't have to hesitate. Do it-

I'll bear the consequences!"

After a while, it was time for the surgery.

Anxious from the wait, Francine demanded, "What's the matter? Isn't he going to start the surgery now? He's supposedly the best brain surgeon around, but he's nowhere to be found."

"Hmm... Did something go wrong?" Elijah immediately called Owen's assistant. A panicked voice was heard on the other end of the line, and Elijah's eyes grew wide in shock.

"What's going on, Elijah? Where is he?" Francine asked quickly.

Taking a deep breath, Elijah turned to Francine and said hesitantly, "Dr. Wagner's assistant said... they've gotten into a car accident, and Dr. Wagner is in critical condition."

"What?" Francine gasped in horror. "What bad luck that it happened right before the surgery! Is this just an excuse because he doesn't want to do the surgery?"

"I don't think so." Elijah shook his head and added seriously, "Dr. Wagner always follows the contract; he wouldn't say yes if he didn't want to do it."

"What should we do now? Should we get Stef out?" Francine was secretly relieved that the surgery couldn't be carried out. "I'm glad because it's less risky, but Stef may get mad." 1

"Has the surgery started?" Seraphina walked over from the other end of the corridor, her eyes watery. "I'm sorry, Madam Francine. I couldn't control my emotions earlier, but now I realize that this surgery is necessary because he can't be living a life o lies, and I wouldn't be comfortable accepting love that's meant for someone else. I know I should be more open-minded..." "Something happened to the surgeon." Francine sighed, looking agitated. "I'm afraid the surgery can't be carried out."
