Chapter 142: Emergency Surgery and Family Confrontation

(Elena Blackwood’s POV)

My mind went blank for a moment as I stared at the patient’s exposed skull. The mechanical drill felt foreign in my trembling right hand.

Hugo’s voice came from above me, steady and reassuring. “Just cut as you normally would. You need to prove that you can do it.”

I pressed my lips together and forced my breathing to steady. The familiar weight of responsibility settled over me like a cloak.

My hands moved with practiced precision as I used the mechanical drill to under the careful pressure.

The blood clot came into view, dark and threatening. I worked methodically to clear it, my focus absolute.

Hugo watched the bloody scene before him, his face growing paler by the minute. I could sense his struggle even without looking up.

His entire body trembled as he fought against his severe mysophobia. The smell of blood filled the surgical

chamber like a metallic fog.

But he remained at my side, his presence unwavering despite the obvious distress it caused him.

A pack nurse noticed his condition and approached quietly. “Professor Ashworth, do you need to rest?

Someone else could take over.”

Hugo maintained his composure with visible effort. His knuckles were white as he gripped the surgical tray.

“I’m fine,” he said firmly, handing me the next instrument without hesitation.

I remained completely focused throughout the procedure. Every fiber of my being concentrated on saving this

patient’s life.

I couldn’t afford to be distracted for even a moment. One wrong move could mean death.

Outside the surgical chamber, Clara Parker’s hysterical crying echoed through the corridor. Her sobs were

raw and desperate.

Jane and another nurse constantly tried to comfort her, but she was inconsolable.

“I just can’t understand how my mate suddenly had a brain hemorrhage when he was perfectly fine!” Clara

wailed.
