Dear Ex Wife Please take me back by The Every Woman

Chapter 186

ATHENA

I make the incision.

It's clean and deep enough to expose the heart's edge, but not enough to cause trauma.

The nurses around me monitor the vitals, their faces masked but tense. No one dares to breathe louder than me.

"Looks good. Let's-" Before I can get the words out of my mouth,

His heart rate spikes violently, pounding too fast and too hard. His blood pressure drops like an elevator cut from its cables.

"Code red! BP is falling! He's seizing!"

"No, no, no!" I tighten my grip on the syringe and step back as his chest rises unnaturally.

He begins to jerk.

I grab the paddles.
