Pursuing Her (Sophie and Tristan)

Chapter 482

“Ms. Tanner, Mr. Tristan's someone important. We can't take any risks,” the others reminded Sophie.

“I understand. Don't worry. I'll take responsibility if anything. Nothing will happen to you guys,” she assured.

Just like that, the surgery began.

Sophie tried to calm down and told herself to treat Tristan like a regular patient instead of her boyfriend.

He's just like all other patients. I just need to do my part as usual.

The other head physicians dared not breathe a word as the operation began.

"Scalpel,” Sophie uttered.

Seeing the determination on her face, a surgeon quickly stepped up and passed her the scalpel like an assistant.

“Don't worry, Ms. Tanner. I'll assist you,” he said. Everyone there was a doctor, so they knew they should not shirk responsibility at a time like that.

They had mentally prepared themselves to bear the responsibility if anything went wrong during Tristan's surgery.

Sophie nodded at the surgeon, who passed her the scalpel, and started removing the bullet.

Compared to the operation she performed on Tristan when they first met, the part where the bullet lodged was trickier to access, so the surgery progressed rather slowly.

Still, the surgeon was relieved when Sophie made the first incision, for he had never witnessed such skilled hands in his life.

The girl before him did not look experienced, but her skills were much better than Arius'.

It was as if that pair of hands were made to hold a scalpel.

Sophie continued the operation with full concentration. Every cut was precise, but her movement was slow and careful because the surgery was complicated.

It was not until two hours later that Sophie finally removed the bullet. After that, she stitched and dressed the wound.

"Well done, Ms. Tanner!”
