Lucas walked past with a poker face, but his mind was racing. ‘Everyone in Seacrity’s high society knows about Winona’s pregnancy. I wonder if something went wrong, he thought.

Yulia, who had followed the ambulance, also spotted Lucas. She felt a bit awkward, thinking about Winona’s current status. “After all, Winona is the result of Nellie’s affair. She’s just a bastard child. I don’t know what kind of karma our Carter family has to end up with her, she thought.

In the VIP ward, a group of doctors were conducting a more detailed examination at Zachary’s bedside.

As the attending physician, Harold was, of course, present. After a thorough examination, the doctors exchanged glances. Harold, looking at the still-weak Zachary with multiple external injuries, said, “Mr. Chambers, the blood clot in your brain has dissipated. Apart from the external injuries, there are no major issues. With some rest and regular medication changes, you should be able to leave the hospital in about a week.”

Zachary was weak but his mind was clear. He vividly remembered the incident. The car he was in had experienced brake failure mid-journey. The driver had already found a safe spot to aim for, and even if they crashed, it wouldn’t have been too serious. But suddenly, a large truck came barreling towards them like a madman, and then everything went black.

‘As an experienced driver, I know I shouldn’t have such minor injuries. This doesn’t add up. Could it be that fate itself saved me?’ Zachary thought.

He touched the bandage on his head and looked up at Harold, speaking sincerely. “Dr. Anderson, Seacrity Hospital truly lives up to its reputation as the best hospital in the city. You are an outstanding doctor. Thank you so much for pulling me back from the brink of death”

Harold and the other doctors behind himn suddenly had odd expressions on their faces. Harold’s face turned a bit red, as he was the one who had been put in an awkward position. Zachary noticed their silence and wondered if he had said something wrong. After a moment, one of the doctors, a man in his early thirties, spoke up, “Mr. Chambers, are you aware that your surgery wasn’t performed by Dr. Anderson?”

Zachary was taken aback and shook his head. T’m sorry, I just woke up. I’m not quite sure what happened.”
