Chapter 417 Operation

"Ms. Tucker, Martin's condition ... I'm afraid surgery isn't possible. His body has been in a vegetative state for so long that it can't endure another major operation."

Craig, now dressed in sterile surgical gear, entered.

After his earlier role in assisting Melody, he felt the need to prove himself, especially after their previous experience.

"I know," Melody replied, her tone steady, though the situation weighed heavily on her.

"That's why I'm only using the electrode this time."

"We are royal physicians. We're trained to handle both a scalpel and a weapon when necessary ... The Stirlands were renowned for their medical expertise, the best in the world. Their reputation was formidable, and it made them arrogant, perhaps too much so.
