Chapter 1009: Chapter 1009 Life-and-Death Speed (3)

On the athletic field, Mu Yunting set his eyes on the girl who had gotten off the plane with him from the departing car, “Don’t worry, I’ll take you to the hospital.”

The girl nodded slightly, “Thank you, Director Mu.”

…

…

Inside the operating room.

Moses’ sternum has already been split open, his heart exposed to the eyes of the doctors; it’s still beating, although it’s clear that it’s with a very subtle force and rhythm.

“Heparin has been injected,” the assistant doctor glanced at the monitor, “Heart rate 36, blood pressure 60 over 43, cardiopulmonary bypass normal…”

Dr. William raised his eyes to glance at the time; nearly twenty minutes have passed, and the next step is the removal of the heart.

Watching as Dr. Charlie took the electrosurgical knife and aimed it at Moses’ heart, Dr. William’s pupils squinted tensely.

The electrosurgical knife quietly pierced into the beating heart.

The left atrium was severed…

Five minutes passed.

Next, the right atrium part had to be removed.

Dr. William turned his face to look in the direction of the entrance.

Less than ten minutes left, can that man make it back in time?

Outside the operating room, Jessica, Helen, and the butler all had their eyes fixed on their watches, while Gan Yuan stood silently in front of the operating room.

Gan Tang slid off the chair and walked to Gan Yuan’s side.

“Mommy, is there still time?”

Turning her face, she gazed deeply into her son’s eyes, and Gan Yuan softly spoke.

“Daddy will definitely make it.”

Her voice was calm and assured.

She trusted that man and believed he would definitely accomplish this task.

At the end of the corridor, Will, in a hospital gown and walking with a crutch, came out of the elevator, looked around, and seeing everyone in front of the operating room, immediately headed over.

“Will?” Helen saw him, raised an eyebrow in confusion, with bandages still wrapped around him, shouldn’t he be resting in bed at this time?

Jessica quickly walked over, supported his arm, and together with Helen, helped him sit down in a chair, frowning as she reprimanded, “Why did you come over?”

“I’m here to take a look.” Will’s gaze fell on the operating room, “What’s the situation now?”

“The operation has started, and Duke is retrieving the heart,” Jessica said softly.

The surgery had begun, yet the heart hadn’t arrived…

Will frowned upon hearing this, “How could that be?”

“The gentleman’s condition was extremely critical; it was the only way to save as much time as possible,” Jessica explained in a low voice.

From everyone’s demeanor, Will could already guess the situation and didn’t ask further. He just reached out his uninjured hand and held Jessica’s hand that was supporting him, within his palm.

Feeling the man’s gesture, Jessica turned her face to look at him.

At the moment their eyes met, she suddenly understood—he was here not only for Moses but for her—he came to accompany her!

Indeed, that was the case.

Despite the doctors repeatedly urging him to rest and the nurses sternly stopping him, Will still rushed to the operating room.

The danger of this surgery speaks for itself, and it could possibly have a bad outcome.

He couldn’t help much, but at least he could offer her some comfort; no matter what the result, at least she wouldn’t have to face it alone.

In his palm, the man’s hand was warm and strong, spreading warmth to her cold hand.

Jessica turned her face to meet his gentle gaze, said nothing, just raised her other hand to cover his hand back.
