Chapter 206 The Surgery Starts
Forget it. Since she was his angel, even if she became a devil now, he would still fulfill all her wishes.
This was what he promised her.
Thinking this way, Finn regained his composure and nodded faintly. "Got it. I'll arrange it right away."
After the call ended, he put his phone away and also walked toward the OB-GYN department.
Soon, Sydney received a notice from the nurse that she could enter the operating room.
She stood up and looked at the operating room door in front of her, and was suddenly unable to take a step.
She thought of Davey and his well-behaved appearance. She thought of the way he called her so sweetly, making her feel the cuteness of the child.
She was almost twenty-seven this year. Ordinary women at her age were already mothers.
If she had a conjugal relationship with Julien when she had just gotten married, her child would have been the same age as Davey now. Perhaps their child would be even cuter than Davey.
If she had not experienced what a child was like, she probably would have walked into the operating room without hesitation.
However, now that she experienced it, she suddenly could not bear to let go.
Seeing Sydney holding her stomach and biting her lower lip, hesitating to go in, Luke went to her side and asked, "What's wrong, Darling?"
"Yeah, what's wrong, Sydney?" Hunter was not to be outdone and stood up from the waiting chair, taking a position on her other side.
Sydney took a deep breath. She did not hide the truth and directly said what she was feeling at the moment. "I... I'm having second thoughts about aborting this child."
At those words, Luke and Hunter exchanged a glance.
Luke was the first to speak. "Why are you suddenly having second thoughts?"
Hunter also looked at her.
Sydney lowered her head. "Maybe I just can't bring myself to do it."
"I can understand. After all, it's still a small life, but Sydney, the operation is ready. It's too late for you to regret it. You have to abort the child," Hunter said in a serious tone.
He liked her, but that did not mean he wanted her to carry someone else's child.
Thus, he naturally wanted to see this child disappear.
Luke was the same and nodded in agreement. "That’s right, Darling. Think about what you said before. You don't love this child, and you don't want to give birth to the child of a man you don't know. You don't want your baby to be an illegitimate child without his father's acknowledgment and his mother's love. Instead of letting the child come into the world to suffer, it's better not to give birth to him in the first place.¹'
Sydney's hand on her stomach slowly tightened.
Yes, she already decided.
How could she let this child come into the world to suffer just because Davey was cute?
Thinking that way, Sydney smiled wanly. "You're right. You guys woke me up. I'll go in now."
Hearing that Sydney got back her conviction, both Luke and Hunter breathed a sigh of relief.
"Okay. We'll wait for you outside." Luke patted Sydney's shoulder.
The corners of Sydney's lips pulled. She hummed and entered the operating room.
Not long after she entered, a doctor along with several nurses also went in.
Hunter looked at the doctor in the lead who was wrapped up tightly in a green surgical gown, cap, and mask, and touched his chin suspiciously.
"What's wrong?" Luke could not help but ask when he saw Hunter's appearance.
Hunter's gaze fell on the slowly closing operating room doors. "That doctor looked familiar. I seem to have seen him somewhere before."
Luke was unperturbed. "Maybe you happened to meet that doctor when you came here." RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
"You might be right." Hunter could not remember where he saw the doctor before, so he simply nodded and stopped thinking. He went back to sit on the waiting chair.
Just then, there was the sound of wheels.
Luke and Hunter turned to look and saw Zach pushing Julien over. The two had different expressions.
"Julien, you're here," Hunter greeted him meaningfully.
Julien nodded.
Luke did not hear anything strange and frowned at Julien unhappily. "What are you here for?"
Julien gave him a faint look and ignored him, then asked Hunter, "Did Sydney go in?"
"Yeah, she just entered." Hunter shrugged.
Julien's hands on the wheelchair subconsciously clenched.
Luke saw Julien ignore him and talk to Hunter instead, and was furious. "Julien Flint, I'm talking to you."
Julien frowned and continued to ignore him.
He knew people like Luke very well. The more he paid attention to Luke, the more worked out he would get.
Thus, there was no need to pay attention to him.
Sure enough, when Luke saw Julien ignoring him, he felt powerless like he was punching cotton.
He asked Hunter instead, "Do you know what he's doing here?"
"Isn't it obvious? He came here to see Sydney's surgery." Hunter pointed to the operating room behind him.
Luke gave Julien a side glance. "What does my darling's business have to do with him? What did he come here for? It's not even his child."
Julien frowned.
Hunter coughed twice.
Well, it really was Julien's child.
However, Hunter would not say this out loud. He laughed and said, "Sydney is his ex-wife. It's normal for him to come."
"Normal, my foot. They have nothing to do with each other after the divorce, but he suddenly came to see my darling. He must be harboring malicious intentions," Luke said warily.
Julien continued to ignore him, dropping his eyelids to cover the darkness in his eyes.
Yes, they had no relationship after the divorce. When the child in Sydney's belly was removed, they would have nothing to do with each other anymore.
That was a good thing. Everything would go back to its original point. However, why did his heart feel upset?
Julien clutched his chest, his eyes revealing some confusion.
At the same time, in the operating room.
Sydney was lying on the operating table. A nurse came over with anesthesia and jabbed it into her arm.
Before long, she felt groggy, and her eyelids gradually grew heavy.
Soon, she closed her eyes and fell into a complete slumber.
Finn put on his gloves and came over to look at Sydney on the operating table.
This was his first time looking at her so close.
She was good-looking. She was even more beautiful than Lyra, and her features were more delicate as well.
It was no wonder Lyra was so jealous of her.
"How's the anesthesia?" Finn withdrew his gaze and asked in an icy tone. He picked up a scalpel and wiped it carefully.
The nurse hurriedly replied, "As per your instructions, only 3 milligrams were administered. She'll wake up in about twenty minutes, and her body senses will return then."
Finn hummed, indicating that he heard.
Lyra said to make Sydney's death painful and miserable. In that case, 3 milligrams of anesthesia was undoubtedly the best way.
When she woke up in twenty minutes and her body senses returned, she would feel the pain of the cold surgical tools cutting into her body.
In other words, she would die of pain while alive.
The nurse did not know what Finn was playing at and asked in confusion, "Director James, why are we only administering 3 milligrams? What if the patient wakes up during the operation...?"
"The patient's body is allergic to anesthesia, so 3 milligrams of anesthesia is the maximum she can handle. I'll finish the surgery as soon as possible before she wakes up." Finn interrupted the nurse's words before she could finish.
The nurse did not doubt his words. After all, he was a well-known surgeon both domestically and abroad, as well as the youngest one. She nodded and said, "I see."
"All right. Let's start the surgery," Finn looked at Sydney on the operating table and said coldly.
Not only was his voice cold, but even his eyes were also cold. He looked at Sydney not as if he was looking at a patient, but at an animal that was about to be dissected. There was not the slightest hint of emotion in his eyes.
The nurses at the side could not help but shiver when they saw him.
The surgery began.
The nurse lifted the green surgical cloth on Sydney's abdomen.
Finn saw that Sydney's hand was placed on her stomach, and he frowned. "What were you guys doing when administering the anesthesia? How could you let the patient's hand rest on her stomach?" 2
