distegarded him like that.
“Yes. That’s her condition. She won’t see anyone except the patient, Adrian answered.
“I’ve asked Mr. Rowland about it, and he said that the Miracle Doctor always wears a hat and a veil during treatments. The only information known about her is that she’s a young wornan. H
“oh? How can they know she’s young it they’ve never seen her.”
“Based on the skin of her hands and the sound of her voler.”
Jordan clwackled. “She’s quite mysterions How much did the Rowland family pay?”
The Rowland family paid 3 million, but when it got to him, the price increased to 5 billion dollars. They were outright scamming him.
He signaled Adrian over and leaned forward to whisper something into his ears. Adrian was shocked but nodded.
“Mr. Ford, I looked into the hospital’s surveillance system. When Ms. Patterson was injected with the sedate, the footage was mysteriously deleted from the
SVET
“I tried to recover it with the help of an expen, but they s were intercepted. A virus was remotely implanted, and it nearly crashed the computer. I suspect that Ms Patterson’s guess is correct.
The person who injected her with sedatives was most likely the sanie person who poisoned Valerie years ago.
However, Jordan.couldn’t understand what the person’s motive would be in humming Valerie when she was just a simple gidi.
That evening, Sabrina sol by the floor–to–ceiling window with her laptop in front of her as she was on a video call,
A man lounged casually on thur sofa. His darkshirt wat embuttoned at the top, revealing a hint of his muscular chest. He held a cigar between his lips, and his handsome, slightly wicked face carried an air of indifférence.
“Briana, it’s been a while. How’s mated life treating you?”
“Why bother asiing when you already law?” Sabrina then arched dis eyebrow and asked, “Why did you poison Valerie Patterson?”
“Do I need a reason to poison someone? I just don’t likelier‘
Smoke swirled as Lester spoke. When he smirked, his bold and attractive demeanor intensified.
“She didn’t do anything to you isn’t poisoning her a little too excessive? The toxin has been in her system for thire year. Even if I defodify her, without continued therapy, she may never be able to have children.”
“Isn’t it better that your ex–husband’s line ends with him?!
Upon hearing his words, Sabrina was left speechless.
“What’s the matter? You can’t bear to see him in pain?” Lester took a deep drag of his clear. “I really don’t get what you see in that man. You have poor taste and judgment”
“Lester”
“I can’t believe you’re getting upset after just a couple of comments.” His eyes darkened as he continued, “You were prepared to live an average lite for him. The least he could do throughout your marriage was refrain from cheating, right?”
He had initially planned to poison Jondan but couldn’t find the opportunity. So, he opted to polson Valerie instead.
Sabrina felt conflicted as she met Lester’s gaze.“Lester..”
“Don’t thank me because I don’t want to hear it. If you’re really moved, please consider me. To be honest, I’m not any worse than him.”
She wondered how the tople got off course. With a yawn, she announced, “Emerxhausted. I’ll go to rest now since I have surgery to perform tomorrow,”
Before Lester could respond, she had already hung up on him. He chucked and put out his cigar as the video call ended.
On the day of the surgery, Sabrina got up early. After dressing really, she called Troy.
“The surgery is ready. The scrubs are in locker 1221m the changing room. Come over straight and wait at the back door of the operating room.”
“Alright.”
Half an hour later, Sabrina arrived at the hospital. As she exited the elevator and walked toward the operating room, she suddenly sensed something and stopped in her tracks.
She tilted her head slightly, and her gaze narrowed. Isered as she was being followed.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes as she quickened her pace and slipped into the stairwell at the comer. Moments later, she saw Jordan’s figure appear in sight.
Jordan had dropped by the hospital to visit Valerie. As he left her room, he noticed a figure that looked remarkably like Sabrina and instinctively followed it, but be
seemed to lose her. He was surprised that the lady was so
This was the opposite of Sabrina’s personality. She was gentle, slow to react, and a little naive. He wondered if he had been mistaken.
“Mr. Ford, I’ve brought Ms. Patterson the chicken pot pie she wanted.” Adrian approached with a bag of food
Jordan planked away indifferently and walked off.
At the same time, sabrina exited from the stairway and dashed to the surgery room. After a quick change, she headed to the backdoor and saw Troy waiting for her.
With a nod of acknowledgment, she entered the room. The patient had already been sedated and was

sabrina performed the surgery as the lead surgeon, with Troy assisting her. The two worked in perfect harmony,
Meanwhile, Jordan returned to Valerie’s ward and handed her the ple. He couldn’t shake the feeling that the familiar figure he had seen wasn’t a mistake
“Jordan, the ple tastes amazing. Do you want to try some? Valette took a bite and found it delicious. So, she wanted to share it with him
