Flora’s Guide to a Second Chance at Love and Life

Chapter 317

The vast Emergency Department was jam–packed with injured patients, the smell of blood mixed with the scent of charred flesh fermenting in the humid air. The doctors were completely overwhelmed, and even those with the most basic medical knowledge had volunteered to help out.

Adler had been stationed at the border for years, but this sudden attack had left over a hundred of his men dead from the artillery fire, with only about thirty surviving. Those who survived were all injured, many of them disfigured by the blasts.

In the innermost room of the Emergency Department, Connor and four other leaders stood around Adler, who lay on the bed. His body was almost entirely covered in injuries, with a particularly gruesome wound on his head, bleeding profusely.

Yara was frantically trying to stop the bleeding and treat him. The burns on his body were manageable, but the head wound was another story. Adler had been shot in the head, near the skull, and even a professional neurosurgeon would be hard–pressed to treat him, especially since neurosurgery wasn’t Yara’s specialty.

“Boss, Adler’s been shot in the head, close to the skull. It’s critical, and we need to operate immediately, but I can’t guarantee I can save him…” Yara said, biting her lips

“How likely is it that you can save him?” Connor asked, his gaze fixed on Adler, his dark eyes heavy with worry.

“At most, I have a 30% chance.”

Yara clenched her teeth. “Actually, if we could get my uncle, Master Jules, to come here, Adler would have a fighting chance. But he’s in Europe, and there’s no way he can get here in time.”

“Only 30%…” Jason’s heart sank.

The other leaders were silent. Thirty percent might as well be no chance at all. They were used to the dangers of their line of work, but seeing a brother who had faced death alongside them now lying on the brink was still

gut–wrenching.
