Chapter 313

Albert’s surgery was arranged on Friday morning.

Melanie got to the hospital at midnight. She could not fall asleep all night and decided to accompany her grandfather.

Howard had repeatedly reminded her not to have high hopes for the surgery. He told her Albert’s condition was terrible, and the risks this surgery posed to Albert were higher.

Melanie knew about this. However, she also knew Albert would not want to live the rest of his life bedridden. Thus, she chose to have him undergo the surgery.

When she arrived at the ward, Albert was still sleeping. Melanie did not want to disturb him and waited outside.

When it was six in the morning, Albert woke up. His surgery was arranged before everyone else’s for that day.

Albert had to keep his stomach empty and could not drink water because of the anesthetic. Melanie calmly wet her grandfather’s lips with a cotton bud.

Albert stared at her with his hazy eyes. Melanie smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Dr. Hel is a professional. You just have to nap, and everything will be fine.”

Albert opened his mouth and used all his might to utter, “Don’t… be afraid.”
