Chapter 2000


    “Still resting,” Gordon answered quietly. “He said he only closes up surgeries and leaves the rest to


    others. Thus, I contacted Dr. Wright to be on standby. A female doctor would be more appropriate to


    tend to Ms.


    Felch.”


    “Good.” Danrique nodded. “Cece does not want her face to be seen by anyone. Ry the instruction to


    Helen.”


    “Huh?” Gordon was stunned for a moment but quickly recovered and nodded hastily. “Yes, sir.”


    Gordon informed Helen, and despite her confusion, she did as told. After all, she had epted a


    handsome amount of money from them.


    She asked Gordon and Danrique to leave the room when the surgery was about to begin, but Danrique


    was unwilling to leave. Hence, he had someone put up a screen and sat behind it.


    Soon, the room was cleared, leaving Gordon and two female bodyguards standing behind Danrique,


    awaiting orders.


    Helen prepped everything, and an elderly man with white hair entered the room slowly with the help of


    a young man.


    Danrique caught a fleeting glimpse of the elderly through the carved screen. Despite his advanced


    years, he was sprightly and dressed in traditional garb, exuding a saintly air.


    His appearance resembled that of the quack traditional medicine doctor Danrique had hired in


    Summerbank, casting doubt on whether he was a chatan incapable of performing surgery.


    Helen too had simr doubts.


    She stilled after noticing Dr. Felch and questioned in Ustranasion, “Doctor, this is an extremelyplex


    surgery. Even I''m not confident in my skills. Are you certain that you can pull it off?”


    Another female doctor tranted her question and regarded Dr. Felch with a skeptical look.


    Dr. Felch took no offense and replied lightly, “I''m not entirely certain. I have declined to perform this


    surgery, but you pressured me to do it.”


    “Uh...” The female doctor was aghast.


    Helen pressed the female doctor to trante what he said, and a look of shock came across her face.


    “Goodness, are you kidding? This is a person''s life on the line, not to mention Ms. Felch is Mr.


    Lindberg''s fiancee.”


    The female doctor was about to trante for Helen when Dr. Felch interrupted, “What did you call her?


    Ms. Felch?”


    Dr. Fetch''smand of Ustranasion wasn''t fluent, but he had treated a few foreign patients and


    understood simple words. He had clearly heard Helen addressing the patient as Ms. Felch.


    The female doctor interpreted Dr.


    Felch''s question to Helen.


    “Ah, about that-” Helen was about to answer when she suddenly remembered Gordon telling her not to


    let anyone know Francesca''s name and face, so she backtracked. “Were running out of time. Let''s


    perform the surgery first.”


    She paused before continuing, “Are you sure, Dr. Fetch? If this surgery fails, the consequence will be


    dire.”


    “Dr. Felch, Dr. Wright said-”


    “We have to try. I haven''t performed surgery in years.” Before the female doctor could finish, Dr. Felch


    put on his reading sses, rolled up his sleeves, snapped on a pair of gloves, and lifted a scalpel to


    Oh, my God.”


    The female doctor hurried to the screen to consult Danrique''s opinion.


    “Ms. Felch mentioned that only Dr. Felch could treat her illness. We shouldn''t be too concerned.”

    Gordon opened a text on his phone and showed it to Danrique.


    Danrique said, “I trust Dr. Felch. Give him all reins over the surgery.”
