Dr. Ray, still clutching a pen and a notebook, gave As a slight nod as he walked past and entered the patient''s room. He nced at the monitor, where the vital signs were showing a steady improvement from just two hours ago. It was astonishing to him how quickly the patient was bouncing back.


    After the surgery, Dr. Ray had been worried about the critical recovery period, but now it seemed like there was nothing to worry about. Jotting down thetest data, he turned to As and said, "You can breathe a little easier now. Mr. Davis is on the mend. I bet it won''t be long before he wakes up."


    As felt a wave of relief wash over him and nodded, "Thanks for everything."


    Dr. Ray waved off the gratitude with a smile, saying, "We really have your friend to thank. Without her, we might not have pulled it off."


    As couldn''t help but feel a chill at the thought of what might have happened if he hadn''t reached out to Miss Mira the night before. If not for her remarkable skills, Mr. Nick might not be resting in that hospital bed right now. Remembering her request, he added, "Please keepst night''s events under wraps."


    Dr. Ray nodded, fully aware of the Davis family''s influence at the hospital, and reassured him, "Don''t worry, nothing will get out."


    As thanked him and added, "Also, let''s keep my friend''s involvement a secret, even from our young master."


    Picking up on the seriousness of the situation, Dr. Ray held back his curiosity about Mirabe''s skills and simply replied, "Understood."


    "Thank you," As said.


    After checking on Nick again, Dr. Ray left the room and headed to the hospital''s records department. This area was dedicated to archiving recordings of significant surgeries. Although he couldn''t delve into details about the mysterious young woman, Dr. Ray was eager to review the footage from the previous night''s surgery. Reviving someone teetering on the brink with just a few acupuncture needles was a marvel worth investigating.


    When he got to the records department, he asked everyone else to step out, keeping only the head of the department to retrieve and send him the video ofst night''s operation.


    "About that surgery video fromst night... I can''t find it, Dr. Ray. Are you sure about the timing?" the head asked, scrolling through the files without sess.


    "It was early this morning, around 1 or 2 a.m.," Dr. Ray rified.


    The head shook his head again, "Still nothing. Did we even have a major operation overnight?"


    Dr. Ray knew the operation had been kept under wraps, so he didn''t push further. Standing beside theputer, he was baffled, "Could you double-check? How could it not be there?"


    "It''s really not here," the head confirmed after another search.


    Realizing why the recording was missing, Dr. Ray didn''t ask him to search any further. With a twinge of disappointment, he left the department.


    The head watched him leave, curiosity piqued.

    Meanwhile, after hanging up with As, Mirabe got a call from her senior, Jessie. Jessie had noticed Mirabe''s absence from school and the sick leave she had taken, so she called to check if she was okay.
