�What�s the matter? You both were being so lovey-dovey yesterday, so why do you want to curse him today?�

�I broke up with him,� Leia declared angrily.

�Again?! You guys have broken up at least four times this month. This isn�t a joke, is it?� Renee asked doubtfully.

�I�m not lying, we really did break up with each other!� Leia shook her head.

�I finally realized that I�ll always be less important to him than his first love. He cares so much more about his first love� In short, he�s unworthy.�

Renee was about to ask Leia about it when a nurse suddenly rushed out of the operating room, her hands covered in blood. Renee�s face went pale, and her eyes grew wide in horror. �No� Something�s wrong!�

�What�s wrong?� Renee immediately rushed over.

�Mr. Everheart couldn�t take the anesthetic and suddenly fell into a coma. It�s an emergency, and we�re trying our best to save him� Miss, please sign this medical crisis notice,� the nurse explained, her

voice shaky.

Only one in ten thousand people could not take anesthesia. They had operated on so many people, but this was the first time something like this had happened, so everyone was panicking.

Renee felt dizzy as she grabbed the nurse arm and demanded hoarsely,� He can�t take the anesthetic? A medical crisis notice? Is this some kind of joke?�

�I�m sorry, Miss Everheart, we didn�t expect this to happen. Please� Please sign this and be mentally prepared��

�Why should I?� Renee sounded hysterical, and her whole body trembled. Clenching her fists, she rushed towards the operating room. �You murderers� I�m going to kill you!�

Leia quickly dropped her. "Ren, calm down. There�s still hope, and I�m sure things will get better. Don�t act recklessly��

�Get better? How?� Renee�s eyes were watery as she said desperately, �It might turn into a death notice if I wait any longer.�

�But�� Tears rolled down Leia�s cheeks. She didn�t know how to comfort Renee. She wouldn�t have come up with such a stupid idea if she knew that there would be such a risk.

Haze frowned and strode forward to stop Renee, then said firmly, �I contacted the best surgeon I know, and he�ll be here soon. He treated my grandpa and did his surgery, so your brother will be in good hands.�

�I don�t trust any doctor but myself now� He was fine. Someone must have wanted to hurt him, and that was why he fell into a coma. The surgery has to stop!� Renee had never heard Quinton say that he couldn�t take anesthesia, so she felt that something had gone wrong during the surgery. It could�ve been the medicine, the skills, the doctor, or the nurse. Quinton was always so strong and healthy, and had survived worse injuries. It was unbelievable that he was dying because of a mere face recovery surgery.

�I get how you feel, but we�re not doctors. We can�t act irrationally now. If you make a scene and delay the treatment, can you bear the consequences?� Haze patiently tried to persuade Renee. He had known her for such a long time, but it was the first time he had seen her so scared and distressed. He yearned to hug her, but didn�t dare to.

They were more than friends, but not a couple� There was nothing he could do.

�I know, but you�ve got to trust me. There must be something wrong with the people in the surgery room. I can�t let them go on, or else my brother�s life will be in danger. I can�t let that happen!�

Renee was barely keeping it together as she leaned on Haze for support. She knew that Haze was being practical and all she had was just an assumption, but she didn�t dare to take any more risks.

�Haze, I�m begging you. Make them stop the surgery�� Renee sobbed as she looked at Haze pleadingly. For the first time, she was being vulnerable in front of him.

"Didn�t you get a good surgeon? I trust you� I�ll only let the doctor you get save my brother!�

Haze felt his heart ache when Renee cried and begged him, so he forwent all his principles. JrNovels.com
