    Chapter 478


    Taya’s fingers tightened a little bit, but there was no


    expression on her face. “That’s your business, Dr. Simmons. It has nothing to do with me.”


    Jessica revealed a graceful smile. “Since you’ve said that, I


    understand.”


    After she spoke, she turned around elegantly and looked at Ste. “See you in the operating room, Ms.


    Cobb.”


    With that, she hurriedly left the ward in her high heels.


    After she was gone, Harper was so angry that she gritted her teeth. “If not for the fact that I’m worried


    she’ll sabotage your operation, I would have started cursing at her.”


    Ste was also a little angry, but didn’t say much. She just


    took out her mobile phone and kept trying to call Griffon.


    He had already been at the base for a month. No matter what, he would have to get out and check his


    phone at some point, right?


    Despite that, his phone was still turned off. Ste was a little discouraged. She put down the phone and


    looked at Taya.


    “Taya, don’t take it to heart…”


    Like Harper, she had stayed by Taya’s side for the past two months. They had gotten closer, and she


    was no longer as


    formal as before.


    Taya’s tense fingers rxed. She looked at Ste and Harper and smiled. “I should be the one saying


    that to you guys.”


    It didn’t matter whether she took it to heart or not. Griffon no


    longer had anything to do with her.


    Ste and Harper looked at each other. Both of them were familiar with Taya’s personality, so they


    didn’t say anything


    more.


    After exining the preparations that would have to be done before the operation, Ste went out to


    work, while Harper stayed in the ward to take care of Taya.


    Time passed quickly. In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the skin graft surgery.


    Although Jessica regarded Taya as her rival in love, her medical skills were truly excellent. She didn’t


    sabotage the


    surgery in any way.


    In fact, after the operation, she gave Taya some expensive


    medicine that she had brought from abroad in order to relieve Taya of her pain. Taya stayed bedridden


    for another two months. After enduring countless bouts of severe pain, she slowly recovered. On the


    day she was discharged from the hospital, Taya stood in front of the bathroom mirror. She turned


    sideways and nced at her back. Although there would still be some scars, most of the skin had


    healed well, and it wouldn’t look so shocking. She was very satisfied with the result. Turning on the tap,


    she washed her hands and walked out of the bathroom. Harper was packing her things. When she saw


    here out, she asked, “Do you want to take the clothes in the closet?” Taya nced at the rows of


    men’s suits and muttered, “I’ll take them to Ste. She can return them to him.” Harper nodded,


    lowering her head as she continued to pack.


    Taya stared at the clothes for a few seconds, and grabbed


    them one by one.


    When she was taking the clothes to the dean’s office, she


    bumped into Eric again. He had pushed Ste up against the


    wall as they kissed.Content protected by N?v/el(D)rama.Org.


    Taya seemed unfazed. She put down her clothes and asked Ste to help return them before saying,


    “You guys can continue.” The moment the door closed, Ste was extremely embarrassed, but Eric


    was dissatisfied. He grabbed her waist with fierce desire for her. Ste endured the pain. She grabbed


    Eric’s shoulder and muttered, “Eric, I want a pup…” Eric paused. His face went pale as if he was


    reliving a bad memory, which made him lose interest. He pulled away, grabbing a few wet wipes as he


    cleaned his fingers slowly. “Adopt one.” Ste looked at his face calmly and continued to provoke him.


    “I want to have one of my own…”


    A look of guilt shed in Eric’s eyes, but he pretended to


    be unaffected. “It’s better not to have pups. There won’t be


    anyone to bother us.”


    Ste noticed the guilty look in his eyes, and she felt happy. She didn’t say anything more after that.


    After tidying herself up, she brought up the clothes that Taya


    put on the floor earlier. “I’m going to the Knight Manor.”


    Eric sat on the sofa without even looking up. “Come look for


    me at the hotel tonight.”


    Ste agreed before turning around and walking out.


    After leaving, Eric was in a bit of pain. He held his forehead.


    with one hand.


    He couldn’t stop thinking about how he had hired people to


    assault Ste back then, causing her to lose her pup, not to mention personally performing a


    hysterectomy on her.


    That unsightly past had haunted him for the past three years, making him miserable. Even so, Ste


    kept proposing marriage and pups in front of him.


    How was he going to repair Ste’s uterus so that she could bear his pup?


    After Taya and Harper finished packing, they went to the parking lot.


    Before getting into the car, Harper realized that she had left her phone in the ward.


    She hurried back inside while Taya opened the trunk and put


    all the things inside.


    The moment she was done and closed the trunk, a group of men wearing masks suddenly showed up


    in front of her.


    The man in charge was leaning against the car door. He was wearing a gold-copper mask and holding


    a golden knife in his hand while staring at her with his head tilted.


    He was tall and built, dressed in rxed and casual clothing.


    He had thick locks of hair that looked quite messy.


    The moment Taya saw him, she was startled. “Greyson…”
