    Chapter 255 She Said Not Him


    "Doctor, how is the situation?"


    "After the rescue, Old Mr. Hansen has managed to recover his life."


    The doctor''s words made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief, especially Lydia, who hurriedly


    made a gesture of gratitude and said, "Thank goodness, thank goodness!"


    But Mark''s expression paused for a moment.


    Luckily, everyone was looking at the doctor, so his unusual expression went unnoticed by most people.


    "However, the current condition of Old Mr. Hansen is still not optimistic. We must perform the valve


    recement surgery as soon as possible. Although the surgery is rtively mature now, the sess

    rate is extremely low due to the severe heart failure."


    The doctor''s words made theplexion of the members of the Hansen family change again.


    Byron''s expression turned serious as he pressed the doctor for more information, asking, "What is the


    sess rate?"


    "Due to the extremely severe heart failure of Old Mr. Hansen, the assessed sess rate is only around


    ten percent."


    Lydia burst into tears once again. "Oh, dear God, please spare my elderly father. I am willing to trade


    thirty years of my own life to give him more than ten years, so he can witness his yet-to-be-born great-


    grandchild and see Byron start a family and build a career."


    However, whether this prayer was entirely sincere or partly put on for show, discerning people could


    see through it clearly.


    Mark furrowed his brow, unsure about what he was thinking.


    "However, if you can get Professor Smith to perform the surgery personally, the sess rate will


    significantly increase. There was a patient with a condition even more severe than Old Mr. Hansen''s


    who, after undergoing valve recement surgery with Professor Smith''s direct involvement, is still


    healthy and alive to this day."


    "Has Professor Smith gone abroad?" Eason chimed in, asking at the right moment.


    "No, he has retired and is not taking on any surgeries anymore," the doctor replied. However, the


    doctor believed that with the financial resources and connections of the Hansen family, they should be


    able to persuade Evan to perform the surgery.


    Then, the doctor left.


    Upon hearing that Osborn''s rescue operation had concluded, Jane hurriedly came over to Byron and


    said, "Byron, I know where Professor Smith lives."


    "That''s great news, Miss Yoris. You are truly a lucky star of our family!"


    Lydia was moved to tears on the spot and almost bowed in gratitude to Jane.


    "Miss Yoris, could you please go with Byron now and find Professor Smith?" Patrick and Ben were not


    as emotionally overwhelmed as Lydia, but they earnestly entrusted Jane with the task.


    "Then, Byron, you go with Miss Yoris to find Professor Smith, and I''ll stay here at the hospital," Mark


    said.


    Despite being aware of Cora''s concerns about not having much contact with Jane, Byron understood


    that she wouldn''t mind much in that situation. So, he nodded and prepared to inform Cora before


    setting off with Jane.


    But Cora suddenly spoke up.


    "Professor Smith is currently in Kinton, and there''s no point in trying to find him."


    Almost in that instant, their gaze turned towards Cora.


    Byron also looked at Cora with a slight frown and asked, "How do you know that Professor Smith is not


    in New York?"


    Before Cora could respond, Jane quickly said, "Dr. Lane, I met with Professor Smith yesterday and had


    some academic discussions with him!"


    Cora didn''t pay much attention to Jane''s almost boastful tone and calmly met Byron''s gaze.


    "Professor Smith was called to Kinton for an emergency symposium on atherosclerosis, so he rushed


    there overnight. Besides, it''s pointless to seek his help because he didn''t perform that surgery back


    then."
