?Chapter 185:
The patriarch of the wealthiest family, renowned for his influence and authority, hushed the room with a mere statement. Eyes darted around in confusion. None could fathom why Connor ced such faith in Tiffany. Surely, favoring one’s own wife had its limits, particrly when a life hung in the bnce. Tiffany’sck of skill was well-known
Neil, unable to restrain his concern, challenged, “Connor, what will you do if Mr. Trenton Warren dies under Tiffany’s care? Money can’t rece a life, you know!”
“Connor, please, think this through,” Chloe implored. “Mr. Trenton Warren’s illness followed Tiffany’s sh with Melinda. You’re feeling guilty and want Mr. Trenton Warren to recover quickly, but this is no time for rash decisions.”
Marissa’s gaze turned icy. Chloe indeed excelled at making false usations. ming Trenton’s illness on her spat with Melinda was just Chloe’s way of sullying Tiffany’s reputation. As expected, Chloe’s insinuations deepened Melinda’s disdain for Marissa, her eyes filled with irreconcble animosity. Aelfric, too, glowered at Marissa with venomous eyes
Connor seethed at Chloe’s veiled usations. Yet, with Trenton’s life teetering on the brink, he knew this was not the moment to confront this hypocrite. Saving Trenton was the immediate concern

He turned to face Aelfric and spoke in an even tone. “The decision rests with Mr. Aelfric Warren.”
Aelfric was astute. While others might have thought Connor was defending Tiffany, Aelfric understood that Connor wouldn’t have offered such amitment if he wasn’tpletely sure of himself. Despitemon perceptions of Tiffany’s inadequacy, Connor’s faith in her painted a different picture. Who really was she?
Perplexed yet pressed for time, Aelfric gave a firm nod. “In that case, I’ll rely on your wife.”
The hall fell silent, shock evident on every face. It was unexpected for Aelfric to entrust Tiffany, often deemed ipetent, with Trenton’s care. Was it a rash decision in a moment of desperation?
“Aelfric?” Melinda and Dennis turned to him in unison
“Unwavering,” Aelfric motioned towards Marissa. “Please proceed, Mrs. Tiffany Daniels.”
With the approval of the family, Marissa crouched next to Trenton and examined him attentively. She then donned gloves and reached out to the doctor. “Please hand me your medical kit.”
The doctor paused, his concern apparent. “Mrs. Daniels, although you are now an outer disciple under Riss’s guidance, your training with Dr. Riss has been brief. Mr. Trenton Warren’s condition is extremely delicate. It’s unwise to take such a risk.”
Marissa shot back sarcastically, “How lucky I am! I’ve been learning from Dr. Riss exactly how to treat Mr. Trenton Warren’s condition.”
Who would possibly believe that? The doctor wondered. “Mrs. Daniels, we have to prioritize the patient’s life. This is serious,” he insisted
Exasperated by his relentless preaching, Marissa turned to Aelfric and said, “If we wait any longer, Mr. Trenton Warren will indeed be gone.”
Aelfric wasted no time andmanded the doctor, “Hand her the medical kit!”
With no room to argue, the doctor reluctantly gave the box to Marissa. She swiftly sifted through its contents and extracted a micro guide wire along with a microcatheter
When the doctor saw her selections, his eyes widened in rm. “Mrs. Daniels, you’re nning to operate using a micro guide wire and a micro catheter? Mr. Trenton Warren’s condition is extremelyplex. Even seasoned surgeons wouldn’t dare undertake such a perilous procedure! You’ve merely scratched the surface with Dr. Riss, and now you’re attempting this? It’s like dancing on the edge of a knife, teetering on a cliff’s edge, and gambling with a life!”
Marissa ignored him and crisply retorted, “You’re distracting. Please, keep your distance.”
Panicked, the doctor turned to Aelfric and pleaded, “Mr. Aelfric Warren, no matter the desperation, we can’t resort to reckless measures!”
