Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 117 A Successful Surgery

“Okay.”

“Yes, we’ll be sure to learn everything.”

The surgical assistants were extremely excited.

Annalise had already prepared her silver needles. She focused her gaze on the patient, who was lying on the

operating table, and accurately inserted the needle.

She inserted one needle after another.

She inserted the needles with such agility. When she inserted a needle, its tip would tremble as if it was alive. The

surgical assistants did not even dare to blink.

They were even more curious about Annalise’s identity.

Jonathan told them, “This is my little sister. She’s talented, and her medical skills are astonishing. Unfortunately, she

doesn’t have the qualifications to practice medicine. So, keep your mouths shut so she won’t get into trouble.”

“Yes, Professor. Don’t worry. We won’t say a thing,” the assistants promised repeatedly.

Jonathan was not worried that they would tell others. Of course, it was best if they could hide Anna’s identity. But if

they chose not to, it was fine. Being skilled in medicine was not an embarrassing thing, either.

It was just that if her identity was revealed, things would not be as peaceful as they were.

Take him, for example. Didn’t he have to rush over to perform surgery in the middle of the night?

After another twenty minutes, the treatment was over.

Jonathan asked his assistants to push the patient out.

The family members had been waiting outside for almost two hours.

Seeing the lights go out and the door open, Cassandra’s sons rushed up and immediately asked, “Doctor, how is my

mother?”

Ben had stood by the door of the operating theater, too. He immediately said, “Professor Woods had had a tough

surgery. Let him rest first. His assistant will tell you the specific situation.”

Jonathan said, “Send someone to my office. We’ll talk in detail.”

Annalise had requested him to perform this surgery. It was better for him to speak about the patient’s situation in

person.

“Okay, thank you.” Cassandra’s older son, Sean, immediately followed Jonathan.

Annalise also went with Jonathan to his office to take off her scrubs.

Julian spoke with Samuel, and they both followed her.

“Dad, I’ll go too,” said Tony.

But Samuel rebuked him again. “What for? Do you think Professor Woods’s office isn’t crowded enough?”

Tony was speechless.

Abigail gritted her teeth in silence.

At first, when she saw Annalise, not only was Annalise wearing her green scrubs, but she also followed Jonathan.

Abigail also wanted to use this opportunity to enter his office.

Annalise was not related to Jonathan by blood. She did not believe that Annalise could be so close to Jonathan and

she could not.

Her medical skills alone were better than Annalise’s.

Moreover, she was prettier than Annalise, and her clothes were better than hers.

Which man wouldn’t like to see a pretty woman?

But seeing that Tony had been rebuked, she did not dare to mention anything. She could only look at Annalise’s

silhouette in resentment.

Inside Jonathan’s office.

Annalise took off her surgical gown and hung it in the closet.

There were two small closets here. One belonged to her, and the other belonged to John. When the time came, he

would arrange for someone to clean and disinfect these surgical gowns, along with the white coats which the

doctors wore every day.

She took off her scrubs and sat down.

Jonathan poured her a glass of water. This had always been his habit. Every time she finished her surgery, he would

pour her water. Sometimes it was boiled water or tea, and sometimes glucose water.

But before he could hand it to Anna, he saw that Julian had already taken a disposable cup and poured her

some water.

The corners of Jonathan’s lips curled up. He thought to himself, “This kid is not bad. He’s quite smart.” Jonathan

handed the water in his hand to Samuel instead. “Mr. Parks, please have some water.” “Thank you, thank you.”

Samuel immediately thanked him.

Even the patriarch of an aristocratic family like Samuel could not help but be polite to brilliant doctors. Firstly,

Jonathan had just performed surgery as a favor to Annalise. Secondly, who wouldn’t want to rub shoulders with a

famous doctor?

After all, everyone had fallen sick at least once in their lifetime.

The importance of a doctor was only truly appreciated when one fell sick.

A good doctor could even bring someone back from the brink of death.

Seeing that John had poured water for Samuel, Julian also poured a glass for his uncle.

Sean took the glass and asked Jonathan politely, “Professor Woods, how’s my mother?”

Jonathan told him that the patient had a severe cerebral hemorrhage. The next 48 hours of observation would be

extremely crucial. If there was any more bleeding, a second surgery might be required.

After the 48-hour critical period, Cassandra would still have to stay under observation in the hospital. Her

postoperative treatment plan might change at any time, too. The hospital would arrange for specialists to follow up

on the patient’s condition.

“Thank

you, Professor Woods. Thank you. With my mother’s condition, when will she wake up? Or rather, is there a high

possibility of her waking up?” Sean asked again.

Their father died early, and Cassandra had raised them. They had a very close relationship with her.

Cassandra was barely seventy years old, but she suddenly had a cerebral hemorrhage.

When their mother suddenly fell, they felt their world was about to collapse. They immediately thought of Uncle

Kent’s Energizing Pill. They wanted one for their mother.

Uncle Kent asked them to deliver it to the hospital immediately. He contacted someone and brought the Energizing

Pill over.

When Jonathan arrived, however, he said Cassandra could not take the pill because she was unconscious and could

not swallow.

Jonathan wanted to say that the Energizing Pill did have the effect of prolonging life and regulating the body.

However, it was not an immortal pill. It would not cure patients with cerebral hemorrhage. However, after the

surgery, she could ingest it daily to recuperate.

“She has already undergone the surgery. The chances of her waking up are high,” said Jonathan.

He and Annalise had performed the surgery. If Cassandra did not wake up, wouldn’t it be a slap to his face and ruin

his reputation?

“Good, good. That’s good. Will my mother be able to live like a normal person after she wakes up?” Sean asked

again.

Sean remembered that many patients who suffered from cerebral hemorrhage could not speak after undergoing

surgery. Some had crooked mouths, and some were paralyzed.

“It depends on her post-op recovery. If everything goes to plan, she will be the same as before,” Jonathan said.

Thank you so much Professor Woods Sean was so grateful to hear that Cassandra would return to normal. Jonathan

reminded him. There shouldn’t be too many people in the ward. Keep the surroundings quiet Even if the patient

hasn’t woken up, she might still be conscious. Don’t say things that the patient doesn’t like to hear Don’t agitate the

patient.”

“Okay Alright.” Sean promised.

Samuel looked at Jonathan, then at Annalise

He remembered that Annalise was the one who performed acupuncture on him when he was unconscious.

It also meant that Annalise’s medical skills must be excellent.

Samuel wanted to ask if Cassandra would recover faster if Annalise performed acupuncture on her. But he could

not bring himself to ask.

Annalise looked at Samuel’s worried and troubled expression. She took the initiative to say, “Grandpa, don’t worry

too much. The surgery was very successful. I will arrange to follow up with acupuncture treatment. She will

recover.”
