Chapter 1691

The angle of the bullet's entry meant it didn't pierce the heart chamber directly; instead, it became

enshrouded by the heart muscle. With every thud of Sean's heart, the bullet inside shifted ever so

slightly.

Since taking the bullet, Sean had maintained an air of indifference, going about his life as if nothing had

changed. To everyone else, he was the same formidable figure they had always feared.

But sometimes, he'd suffer from chest tightness, a racing heartbeat, dizziness, a feeling of suffocation.

Over the past few months, a team of top-notch doctors had been brainstorming solutions, but none

could guarantee a 100% success rate in removing the bullet.

Because the bullet, aside from causing Sean discomfort, wasn't life-threatening and didn't disrupt his

daily routine, some doctors suggested forgoing surgery and simply managing the symptoms with

medication.

As time went on, Sean's discomfort grew more frequent and pronounced; conservative treatment was

no longer cutting it.

That was one reason he hadn't gone home. The thought of his family witnessing his sudden death. The

heartache it would cause his parents, his siblings.

“There is another option.” one doctor mentioned, “I've heard about this Dr. Bell, who's operated on

many influential people. They say even the toughest cases are kids’ play for her. It's rumored that she's

quicker to save a life than the Grim Reaper is to take one. If we can replace her, there might be a chance.”

“Dr. Bell.” Steward had heard the name before.

sent people to replace this miracle doctor long ago, but Dr. Bell was as elusive as a ghost, and they hadn't

been able to track her down.

Now, with Sean unconscious, mobilizing a massive search felt like replaceing a needle in a haystack.

Then, the image of that young girl from the night before popped into his mind. Did she really know

medicine? Could she operate on Sean?

Her calm demeanor, those eyes brimming with confidence, it made one want to believe. But that

thought lasted only a second before he felt like he was losing his mind. He must be desperate to even

consider the words of a girl barely out of her teens!

“Keep Sean on the meds to ease his pain for now. When he wakes up, I'll discuss it with him.”

They had no better plan; they had to wait.

The next morning, as dawn was breaking, Sean's eyelids fluttered open. Remembering the symptoms

that the young girl had pinpointed the night before, a smile crept across his face.

She really was a unique young lady. She had even guessed the timing and symptoms.

“Sean, you're awake.”

Steward thought his eyes were deceiving him. Not only was Sean awake, but he was also smiling, a

baffling and unsettling sight in the dim morning light.

“Get in touch with her,” Sean said abruptly.

Steward was bewildered and took a moment to comprehend, “You mean that young girl, you want her

to treat you?”

Sean clarified, “To perform the surgery.”

“Letting a girl we barely know and have had conflicts with operate on you?” Steward felt Sean was out

of his mind, resorting to desperate measures, even considering a girl to perform surgery,

“Sean, we don't even know who she is.”

Recalling the girl's confident demeanor, Sean replied with a relaxed assurance, “Do as I say.”

He couldn't believe that she'd boldly make such claims if she wasn't competent. She must be sure of

herself. Sean's directive left Steward with no choice but to reluctantly make the call.
