S2 60. Waiting for Operation
Meanwhile, in another ce, someone also said a prayer sincerely.
“Please God, make the operation sessful. Make the operation.
sessful.”
Philip kept muttering those words. His hands were pressed together, supporting his forehead which felt so heavy. He didn’t care
if Frank and Kara heard. He just wanted his prayer to be answered.
“He must be very restless. It''s been two hours.” Kara blinked in pity.
Frank stroked his wife''s shoulder. “It''ll be finished soon.”
Right after Kara nodded, the operating room door opened. Rony came
out with a tired face.
“Doctor,” Philip rushed over to Rony, “how is Barbara?”
Frank and Kara also got up from their chairs, standing beside Philip. How is it, Rony?”
“The operation went smoothly.”
Kara immediately smiled and nced at Frank. However, Philip still listened carefully.
“Then how is she?” Philip emphasized the question earlier.
“Her condition is stable. However, she is still under anesthesia. W is apanying her inside. We will move her to the
transition room.”
Philip let out a faint sigh. His shoulders could slowly take the weight off. “So, she can recover soon?”
“We were lucky that the knife missed her lungs. So, there was no significant damage. But she will probably have difficulty moving

arm for some time. With proper treatment, she will definitely recover
soon.”
Philip closed his eyes and looked down. His mouth made a faint si whispering gratitude.
“Thank you, Doc. Thank you,” he said after raising his head again. Frank and Kara also thanked Rony.
“Treating patients is my duty. | am the one who should thank you. You handled it swiftly and well. Our job has be easier.”
After a smile, Rony patted Philip''s arm. “Now if you''ll excuse me. | have to change. W will help you move the patient and take
care of other things.”
The three people nodded. When Rony left, they breathed a sigh of relief. Philip''s eyes radiated enthusiasm again.
“Sir, Madam, if you want to go home, just go. | can look after Barbara.
Philip nodded, reassuringly.
Kara was happy to see his smile again. “Are you okay taking care of her by yourself?”
Frank frowned. “What kind of question is that, Kara? He must be happy to be the first person Barbara sees when she wakes
up.”
While Philip rubbed the back of his neck, Karaughed faintly. “Then, let''s see Barbara''s condition first. After that, we''ll go
home.”
“Well then, let''s hurry. Remember, you also have to rest. | don''t want you to get sick,” Frank whispered before kissing his wife''s
temple.
Kara smiled sweetly. Rubbing Frank''s waist, she kissed him back.
Witnessing the warm scene, Philip''s heart tingled. He realized that he should not dy any longer. Barbara had to know that his
heart ached when he saw what happened earlier. His feelings couldn''t be
hidden any longer.

When they arrived home, Frank and Kara immediately checked on Louis. However, finding his room empty, their eyebrows
arched high.
“Where did Louis go? Is he in Emily''s room?” Frank sighed, softly.
“I think so. It might be they couldn''t sleep.”
Frank and Kara moved to another door. When they looked inside, Louis was lying hugging his little sister.
“Mommy? Daddy?” Louis got up and rubbed his eyes. “How is Auntie?” Emily also sat down with a frown. “Was the operation
sessful?”
Kara smiled slightly. From a chair beside the bed, she caressed those thick eye bags.
“The operation went smoothly. But Auntie is still in the hospital. She still needs to be monitored and she should rest so she can
recover
faster.”
Louis breathed a sigh of relief. “Thank God. Our prayers were
answered.”
Emily nodded slightly. “Then what about Philip? Is he still crying?”
“Philip is crying?” Frank raised an eyebrow.
Emily''s lips pursed. “His eyes were teary when he was holding Auntie. earlier. | thought he was crying.”
“Maybe he really wanted to cry, Emily, but held back. He was afraid we would make fun of him. But how could we joke in a critical
situation like that? He might forget that we''re not usual four-year-old children.” Louis shrugged one shoulder.
Karaughed at that statement. “Then what about you, Little Angels?

Why are your faces so pale? Didn''t you sleep well?”
“We couldn''t sleep, Mommy. We were worried about Auntie. We ke praying until our voices were hoarse.” Emily put her hands
together, demonstrating how she had done it. “We only lie down when we are very tired.”
“Now that your prayers have been answered, why don''t you go to sleep? Remember, you have to go to school.” Frank rubbed
Emily and Louis’ heads alternately.
Instead of nodding, the twins frowned.
“Daddy, can we not go to school for one day? We want to apany Auntie.” Louis put on a pitiful look.
“Louis, you can visit Auntie after school. You don’t have to sacrifice your studies.”
“But we won''t be able to concentrate, Mommy,” Emily shook her head slowly. “We''ll definitely keep thinking about Auntie.”
Frank touched his daughter''s nose. “Do you forget? Philip is looking after her. What are you guys worried about?

“Why do you think that, Little Angel? Mommy and Daddy are not hiding anything from you.” Kara shook her head stiffly.
“Then, why were we not allowed to going to the hospital? We''re also not allowed to know what really happened.” Louis’ lips
pursed even

“Mommy and Grandma Susan only said that Auntie had an ide But we doubt that. Could it be that Grandma Mnie is the
cause. Mommy can''t bear to say that one of our grandmothers is a bad person?”
Frank and Kara were stunned to hear Emily''s words. After one blink, Kara sighed in disbelief. “Why do you think so, Little Bee?
Grandma Mnie is your grandmother.”
“That''s because Grandma was crying so hard. We can even hear it
from here.”
“Yes, if we had neighbors, I''m sure they wouldin because Grandma is too noisy.”
While Frank fell silent, Kara forced a smile. “Grandma cried because she was sad. When you two were in the hospital, Mommy
was sad too, right?”
“At first, we thought so too, Mommy. But apparently, this is different. Even though it wasn''t clear, we could hear Grandma
constantly apologizing.” Emily''s eyebrows pressed closer to her forehead.
Louis’ expression was no less serious. “Why did Grandma apologize if she was innocent? It must be because she was sorry. She
has hurt
Auntie.”
Kara grimaced faintly. She realized that the twins were too genius to be lied to. Just as she was thinking about how to express
the truth, Frank suddenly cleared his throat.
“Would you hate Grandma if she was the one who hurt Auntie?”
Emily blinked, while Louis scratched his temple. After a moment of silence, they both shook their heads.
“We cannot hate our own grandmother. That''s not good,” Emily pinned his neck with her shoulders.

Frank smiled proudly at the twins. If he hadn''t juste home from the hospital, he would have hugged them.
“Thank you for your understanding, Kids. I''m d you are not hostile towards Grandma,” he whispered with teary eyes.
“So, was it really Grandma who hurt Auntie?” Louis tilted his head forward.
