    Chapter 6


    Dr. Greg was afraid things would getplicated, so he gently advised, “Miss, this operation is


    seriouslyplicated. Even an expert professor with decades of experience like me can’t guarantee


    sess. Considering Phillip’s current condition, aside from thete medical genius Dr. Bell, there’s no


    one else in the world who can guarantee he’ll make it out of the operating room alive. It’s not that we


    don’t want to operate. It’s just that our skills are limited, and we can’t provide help.


    “Administering sedatives andforting the patient is all we can do at the moment until the family


    arrives to sign off, and we can focus on treating him.”


    They were always scared of Mr. McMillian’s influence, and they didn’t dare do everything they could for


    Phillip…


    “Did you mention there would be a reward after a sessful surgery?” Arabe suddenly asked.


    “Uh…” Dr. Greg was a little surprised, but quickly answered, “Of course.”


    It didn’t matter what kind of person Phillip was, as long as he could be saved, the cost was not an


    issue.


    Arabe had made a lot of money for the Murphy family before, but all that money ended up in their


    pockets. Plus, with Grace’s medical expenses, she had nearly exhausted all her savings. If she could


    make some money from a minor surgery, that would be great.


    Dr. Greg saw confidence in Arabe’s beautiful eyes, and her aura was strong. He couldn’t help but


    ask, “Miss, do you really know medicine?”


    Arabe smiled and said, “Handling a scalpel is not a problem.”


    “And how do you n to save him?”


    “Of course, by performing a heart valve recement procedure, but I need Caden as my assistant.”


    “Heh…” Susana was shocked to hear that, “Who do you think you are? Do you know who Caden is? I


    can call him over, but would he be your assistant? If so, I’d chop off my head and let you use it as a


    football.”

    After saying this, she turned to Dr. Greg and said, “Dr. Greg, stop wasting time on her. We’re in a hurry.


    Let’s administer the sedatives andfort the patient now!”


    She ordered a nurse, “Go get the medicine, and tell the security room there’s a madwoman here.”


    The nurse bumped into Caden on her way out and quickly exined the situation.


    Soon, a familiar voice echoed in the ward.


    “Who’s looking for me?”


    Everyone looked up and saw Caden, their faces showing surprise.


    How did the nurse manage to bring Caden in? How could a minor nurse have persuaded such an


    important person toe?


    “Dr. Caden, you’re just in time.” Susana seized the opportunity to embarrass Arabe, “This girl has a


    lot of guts. She wants you to be her assistant.”


    Caden nced at Arabe, who stood there as if none of the attacks around her could hurt her.


    He frowned at Susana, clearly unhappy with her behavior, then asked the others, “What’s going on?”


    Susana quickly exined the situation, tucking a stray lock of hair behind her ear to reveal her pretty


    profile, hoping to make a good impression on Caden. “I’ve never seen a case like this, neither here nor


    abroad.”


    “What are we waiting for then?” Caden, for Arabe’s sake, took on this tough task and said


    emotionlessly, “Get ready for the operation.”


    “Dr. Caden, how can you be as reckless as her?” Susana was taken aback by his decision, “Operating


    now, means the sess rate is less than 10%… This old man is very influential, if something goes


    wrong, we won’t be able to handle the responsibility!”


    Caden’s eyes were emotionless, “If something goes wrong, you don’t need to worry about it.”


    “Dr. Caden…”


    “I will take responsibility.”


    All the doctors were stunned. Was he nning to take this risk with Arabe, the young girl?


    Without saying much to them, Caden nced at Arabe. “Come with me,”


    He was taking her to the operating room.


    As Arabe passed Susana, she smiled and said, “Didn’t you say you would chop off your head and let


    me use it as a football?”


    “You…” Susana was speechless. She had indeed said that, but she never thought Caden would agree


    to be Arabe’s assistant.


    Caden was usually so arrogant, why the sudden change of attitude today? Was he smitten by


    Arabe’s beauty?


    Arabe smiled and replied, “Don’t forget what you said.”


    “Me? What did I say?” Susana suddenly remembered, “Oh, I did say that if you could save Phillip, I


    would kneel down and call you my God, but I doubt you have that ability! Don’t hold us ountable if


    you end up killing the patient!”


    Arabeughed, her beautiful eyes sparkling with confidence, “You want to call me God, but I don’t


    want to ept a believer like you!”


    “You-


    “Don’t forget to kneel.” Arabe said and left with Caden.


    Susana watched her back, feeling like she couldn’t swallow, and said loudly, “If you can save Phillip,


    I’m willing to resign as deputy director!”


    She patted her badge, “Let’s see if you have the ability to win it!”


    Caden heard their “bet,” and casually asked, “Why did you start arguing with her?”


    “She’s too arrogant.”


    Exactly right, she had to know there were always people better than her.


    Phillip was pushed into the operating room by two nurses, leaving only a few doctors in the ward.


    “They’re all crazy!”


    “This old man’s condition is so severe, he can’t be operated on. I think Dr. Caden is too young and


    doesn’t realize the grave consequences of failure! It’s not just a matter of reputation and career!”


    If something went wrong, all their lives could be in danger!


    “Dr. Greg, are we seriously not gonna stop this? This is a life we’re talking about.”


    “How can we let them take such a risk with Phillip’s high status? Dr. Greg, you gotta say something!”


    “Yeah, we should stop them right now. We still got time.”


    The female director seemed more optimistic, “Dr. Cadenes from a lineage of medical geniuses.


    Even though he might not be on par with top-tier experts, his profound medical skills might just pull off


    a miracle.”


    The male director also harbored a glimmer of hope, “Dr. Caden is a widely acknowledged genius


    doctor. With him around, a miracle might just happen.”


    “You guys are all mixing it up. He’s just the assistant to that girl. She’s the one doing the surgery! She’s


    just a kid, how could she possibly know anything about medicine?” Dr. Lauren was all antsy, “Dr. Greg,


    say something!”


    “Dr. Lauren, what are you so worried about? Dr. Caden said if anything goes wrong, he’ll take full


    responsibility.”


    “But the patient is Romeo McMillian’s dear old grandpa. If the surgery fails, Romeo might me us for


    not stopping it.”


    “Then we’ll just say that it was Dr. Caden who insisted on doing the surgery, and we couldn’t stop him.”


    Susana decided, after all, it was Dr. Caden who willingly chose to take the risk with the young girl.


    The young girl had no clue about Phillip’s real identity. If she knew, she would’ve probably freaked out


    and bolted. How would she dare to take on this difficult case?
