The Billionaire's Forbidden Longing

Chapter 2 An Eighteen-Year-Old Medical Genius?

James nodded and hustled Alexander to the hospital. A gunshot wound was no joke.

At HealWell Hospital, the top surgeon checked out Alexander's wound and was blown away. "Who did this? This surgery is almost perfect." "A stranger!" Alexander was just as curious. That girl, so young, yet so calm and collected.

The stitches were flawless, the arterial bleeding was expertly handled, and the internal stitching was so good one couldn't even see it.

This wound would heal without a scar. Even the chief surgeon doubted he could do it this well.

"Is there a problem?" James asked, worried. Bringing Alexander back from that place had been nerve-wracking.

The chief surgeon, though, was full of admiration and even more curious about who had such mad skills.

"The surgery went great, and the healing looks good. A few days in the hospital, and he should be good to go home and rest," the chief surgeon replied.

James let out a sigh of relief, even more curious about the stranger who saved Alexander.

The chief surgeon looked a bit bummed. As the top surgeon in Avalon City, he didn't have skills this advanced. Who could this person be?

After the doctor left, Alexander turned to James. "Go find out who it was!"

James nodded and went off to investigate.

Early the next morning, James showed up at the hospital. Seeing Alexander working in the ward, he rushed over. "Mr. Carter, what are you doing? You need to rest!"

He'd been shot in the chest. Could he at least act like a patient?

Alexander's injury hadn't been reported to his father, Aiden Carter in Skycrest yet. If he found out, James feared he'd get chewed out.
