Emelie wasn’t sure what they had been discussing earlier, but both of them suddenly tell silent.

She glanced at William and then shifted her gaze to Samuel, who was seated in the chair next to the bed. She tried to sit up, but with her left hand injured, she couldn’t support

Samuel responded, “The surgery went well. She’s still under anesthesia and hasn’t woken up yet. I’ve asked the nurse to monitor her closely in the room. I’ll be notified as soon as she wakes.”
