    Outside, the elder Gardners were beyond apprehensive when not a sound came from inside Benedict’s


    room five hours into the surgery, and with each passing time, Olivia’s expression grew increasingly


    grim. “What’s taking her so long? Can Nicole actually do it?” she said, grumbling with balled fists.


    Coltonforted his aunt after hearing her skepticism. “She’s already been inside for five whole hours.


    Sess or not, there’s nothing we can do but put our faith in her now.”


    Olivia chewed on her lips but said nothing in the end.


    The surgery inside went rather smoothly until Nicole was about to remove the tumor, for it suddenly hit


    her that Benjamin was bleeding out. In fact, blood was practically gushing like a never-ending stream.


    Julia noticed the problem as well, so she moved to Nicole’s side and asked while holding back the


    quiver and nervousness in her voice, “What do we do now, Nicole?”


    Nicole was pretty frustrated as well, for she knew this couldn’t have possibly happened since she had


    done a detailed examination on Benedict.


    It wasn’t the time for doubt, so she collected herself and whispered to Julia, “Get the antihemorrhagic


    agent and these drugs ready. We can only resort to extreme lengths to keep him alive now.”


    Despite her hesitation, Julia still saw to it immediately after receiving Nicole’s orders, for she knew this


    wasn’t the time to hesitate. She had toply unconditionally with the operating surgeon.


    Compared to the Gardners’ anxiousness, Pierre wasposed. Nicole must be snowed under right


    now, he thought, and the old man will definitely bleed out!


    He grinned confidently. It turned out that he had tampered with the anesthetic aftering here,


    adding an agent that would prevent the blood from clotting. Better yet, this agent would be flushed out


    of the human body after twelve hours.


    Nicole is probably witnessing an intense bleed-out after operating on Old Mr. Benedict, and soon


    enough, she’ll have no choice but to pronounce the old man dead! Ha! What easy sess! Not only


    will someone else be taking the me for Old Mr. Benedict’s death, but I can also overthrow her. What


    a win-win situation!


    After Julia was done blending the drugs, Nicole injected them into Benedict’s system.


    Thanks to the strong dosage, the blood clotted in seconds.


    However, the initial eight-hour surgery took Nicole sixteen hours due to the mishap, which was double


    the time she had estimated.


    Once she finished stitching Benedict up, she nearly copsed to the floor from sixteen hours of full


    concentration. Fortunately, she could finally rx when all of Benedict’s vitals were normal.


    Despite not being the operating surgeon, Julia was also well spent after the sixteen-hour surgery.


    The twodies practically supported each other out of the room.


    Outside, the Gardners instantly stood on their feet andtched their gazes on Nicole as soon as she


    came out.


    With that, Nicole pulled a ghastly smile, collected herself, and said in a low voice, “Old Mr. Benedict is


    okay now.”


    Richard had arrived sometime during the surgery, and he hurriedly helped Julia up when he saw her


    wobbly legs.


    Julia shook her head in response, indicating she was fine. “I’m just the assistant. Nicole has it worse


    than me.”


    Meanwhile, Richard helped her to the couch to rest, looking at her with an aching heart.


    Nicole leaned against the wall, but having stood for hours and being mentally exhausted had her on the


    verge of cking out.


    With that, Colton helped her to the couch as well.


    Nicole thought she could gradually feel her legs again after resting for a while. Then, she turned to


    Richard, having trust issues now after experiencing Benedict’s unforeseen mishap.
