“This patient’s heart failure is quite severe. Are you sure a heart transnt surgery is still feasible?”
Neera nodded. “I have also taken the patient’s health into consideration. Although his physical
functions and stamina are not sufficient to withstand a major surgery, it could still be possible within a
short period of time. As long as we can find a matching heart as soon as possible before his condition
worsens and have the most skilled surgeon perform the operation, the sess rate of the surgery is
still quite high.”
George pondered for a moment. “In the field of medicine, you are undoubtedly more specialized.
Whether it’s in terms of knowledge or technical expertise, you are far ahead. Since you have expressed
such confidence, I will do my best to help you find a heart. However, as you know, a heart is unlike
other organs. It is extremely difficult to find one with a highpatibility rate, so there is a chance we
might end up disappointed.”
Upon his quick agreement, Neera’s eyes instantly lit up.
“It’s okay, Mr. Meyer. I am already very grateful that you are willing to help me. Thank you!”
George waved his hand dismissively. “This is nothingpared to you saving my life. It’s just a small
matter.”
He then asked, “However, may I be so bold as to ask about the recipient of this heart? You seem to be
in quite a hurry.”
Neera hesitated for a moment. Ultimately, she chose not to hide anything and told him the truth.
“He is my father-inw, currently in the intensive care unit at the hospital. I must do everything possible
to save him.”
That answer left the two people across from her stunned.
George was the first to react, looking at her in surprise. “You’re already married?”
Neera touched the diamond ring on her right ring finger, smiling as she hummed in confirmation.
Hearing that, George seemed a bit regretful. He murmured an acknowledgment before sighing.
This is from N?velDrama.Org.
“Oh well, I was just thinking that if there was a chance, I could y matchmaker between you and
Leopold. It looks like my grandson is out of luck.”
At hisment, Neera was taken aback. In the next second, she was utterly nonplussed. “What an
imagination you have.”
Leopold, who was at the side, wore a somewhatplex expression. His gaze lingered momentarily
on her diamond ring. As though finding it too dazzling, he shifted his eyes away to the face that
haunted his thoughts day and night.
His previous excitement and joy had vanished without a trace. An overwhelming sense of anguish
swept over him, seeping into his heart.
He felt his breathing turning somewhatbored. It seemed like a weight was pressing on his chest, and
a sense of unease gripped him.
Only one thought remained, ying on a loop in his mind-she’s already married and is someone else’s
wife.
Since the matter had already been settled, Neera didn’t wish to linger any longer. She stood up, ready
to take her leave.
George insisted, “Please stay and have a meal with us. I haven’t had the chance to thank you properly
yet.”

Neera waved her hand with a smile. “It’s okay. I have to get back to the hospital. As for thanks, I can’t
thank you enough for your help.”
Despite her persistence, George didn’t insist any further. “All right, then. I’ll contact you once there’s
any news. Leopold, please see Ms. Garcia out.”
Leopold stood up, his lips pressed into a thin line. He nodded slightly. “Ms. Garcia, let me walk you
out.”
His voice sounded noticeably less spirited than before, carrying a subtle hint of mncholy.
Neera didn’t pay much attention to him, so she didn’t notice anything amiss,
She had barely stepped out the door when she halted and politely said softly, “Mr. Leopold, this is far
enough. You may go back now.”
Leopold looked at her, his eyes filled withplex emotions. It seemed like he had something he
wanted to say.
Noticing that, Neera asked in confusion, “Is something the matter?”
She deliberated briefly, but all she could think of was the minor conflict at the World Medical Alliance
last time. She hesitated for a moment before voluntarily bringing it up.
“Mr. Meyer, ourst encounter at the World Medical Alliance was somewhat unpleasant, but you were
not the main person involved. Therefore, I believe you to be a person of integrity and reliability. My
words earlier were not ttery. Instead, they were a genuine expression of my thoughts without any
falsehood. Since that incident is in the past, I don’t think we should dwell on it anymore. What do you
think?”
A trace of subtle sorrow graced Leopold’s handsome face.
He hummed in agreement. But still, he had that look of having something to say yet was hesitant to
speak.
Neera didn’t quite understand it, but she also had no intention of wasting any more time with him.
“Since we’ve cleared the air, I’ll take my leave now.”
She gave a slight nod of farewell, then turned to leave.
At that moment, Leopold suddenly called out to her, “Ms. Garcia, wait a moment.”
Neera paused in her tracks but did not turn around, merely waiting for him to speak.
Leopold stared at her back, a lump of bitterness lodged in his throat. “May I ask when you got
married?”
Neera found his question somewhat baffling..
She turned to look at him with a peculiar look in her eyes. Nheless, she gave him the courtesy of a
response.
“Not too long ago. Just this month, in fact. What about it?”
In terms of collecting the marriage certificate, it was indeed true that she had only gotten married that
month.
Upon hearing that, Leopold felt even more distressed. But inexplicably, he also felt a sense of relief.
It wasn’t too long ago, and not much time had passed
He didn’t know why that thought popped into his mind either, but it was fleeting.
Thereafter, he shook his head. “It’s nothing. Please be careful on your way back.”
Looking rather perplexed, Neera murmured in acknowledgment and promptly left.
