qThe next day, Anthony worked hard to gather all the herbs, equipment, and blood supply that Francesca needed for the surgery.

In the evening, Francesca started operating on Lacy.

Anthony and Layla helped her from aside.

Around three hours later, she wrapped up the surgery.

Anthony wanted to go after her, but Layla stopped him. “Not today. We need to keep an eye on Lacy. Besides, Francesca won't let you follow her.”

“All right. Next time, then.”
