Coolest Girl in Town

Chapter 434 Of Course I’ll Bear the Consequences!

Later that night, when the entire residential area was dead silent, a specially modified ambulance came to a halt in front of the house. A short while later, the ambulance drove out of the town with a total of four cars escorting it from the front and back.

About one hour later, in the ICU of a private hospital, two men were standing beside a glass coffin. Thomas took one look at the man inside before he dragged Alexander over to the side. “Didn’t I say this before? He’s a comatose patient—he’s not going to wake up. Why are you sending him over?”

“We need your place to conduct a surgery,” Alexander replied calmly.

“A surgery? For the guy in the coffin? What sort of joke is this?” Thomas was utterly dumbfounded and bombarded Alexander with a series of questions. Although Thomas wasn’t the most experienced doctor, he was still one of the most capable specialists in Tissote. Wouldn’t he be able to tell if a man showed any signs of waking up from a coma? Putting such a patient through surgery would only cause greater harm to the patient’s body.

However, even after Thomas finished speaking, Alexander gazed at him with the same stern expression on his face. Elise, who was standing beside them, had an equally serious look.

“You guys aren’t joking after all.” Thomas was certain when he saw their faces. “No way.” He held his arms out to stop them from moving. “I’m a doctor, and I have the duty to protect patients. You guys are fooling around with another man’s life, and I will not agree to this!”

Thomas had just finished speaking when Claude strolled over in a white lab coat. Thomas noticed Claude from the corner of his eye, and he immediately spun around to realize that Claude was the doctor who was going to conduct the surgery. Thomas hastily leaped forward to stop the man. “Hey! What sort of scammer are you? How could you suggest for the patient to undergo surgery when he’s in this state? Do you know that the patient might die if you make any mistakes with the craniotomy? Are you going to bear the consequences?!”

Thomas knew then that it was too late for him to do anything. He calmed himself down and narrowed his eyes to glare at Elise and Alexander resentfully. The couple was seated on a long bench outside the surgical theater, and Alexander pretended
