Chapter 265 Guilty Consciences of Group Misdeeds
Just as Sammy’s true capability was revealed, Neera was busy performing surgery on Zuniga’s husband. Although the tumor was benign, its location near the heart made the procedure quite delicate. However, Neera had a unique approach to dealing with such cases.
The surgery lasted for a lengthy four hours and didn’t conclude until after 2 pm. Neera wiped the sweat off her forehead as she emerged from the emergency room, only to be met by the visibly anxious. Zuniga.
“Ms. Garcia, did the surgery go well? How’s my husband? Is he…” Zuniga’s voice trembled with concern.
Neera smiled reassuringly, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. “Don’t worry, the surgery was successful. The tumor has been removed, and your husband is fine now.”
Overwhelmed with relief, Zuniga burst into tears and fervently thanked Neera, who had become their family’s savior. Marsh, accompanying his mother, also expressed heartfelt gratitude.
Neera patted their shoulders and then excused herself to change clothes. After standing focused for four hours, she felt a bit weary now that the tension had eased. She decided to take a break in Isabella’s office.
“Here, have some water to refresh yourself. I’ve also got some food for you–still warm–so enjoy it while it’s hot.”
Isabella handed Neera a water glass and took out the food she had kept in a thermos, taking care of every detail.
Neera smiled and sat down, eating a bit. However, her appetite was not substantial, and she put down her spoon after a few bites, reminded of something.
“About that patient you mentioned, the one with the heart condition, is it quite severe? Have his family members agreed to the surgery?”
“They’ve agreed,” Isabella replied. “Although there’s only a 40% chance of success, his family doesn’t want to give up. They’ve made the decision. Of course, I’ve told them everything they need to know, and they’re mentally prepared. I was going to talk to you about this, but you looked so tired that I didn’t want to trouble you.”
Holding the water glass, feeling the warmth in her palms, Neera’s exhaustion seemed to lessen.
“It’s okay. Today’s surgery wasn’t too challenging, so it was relatively easy. When is his surgery scheduled? The sooner, the better.”
Isabella understood Neera’s determination and didn’t hold back. “It’s set for next Wednesday. Can you manage?”
After considering her schedule for that period, Neera nodded. “No problem.”
A while later, she left to go home. Upon arrival, she went next door to fetch the triplets.
At that moment, Sammy was busy discussing their company’s system security with Jean, presenting at new system he had developed.

lan, standing by, listened with wide–eyed amazement, unable to contain his curiosity. “Sammy, who’s your master?”
Sammy grinned mischievously, waving a finger in the air. “That’s a secret!”
Jean, however, didn’t pry.
Someone who regarded top–tier hackers like Shadow as beneath notice must either be ranked first or deliberately conceal their true capabilities. After all, there’s always someone better, and some formidable experts shun the limelight, never displaying their full potential.
The conversation flowed on, and then the doorbell rang. Richard quickly went to answer it.
Upon hearing Neera’s voice, the triplets jumped up from their spot on the floor, acting as if they had been caught in the act of mischief. Sammy, in particular, nearly lost his balance. Jean swiftly reached out and caught him just in time.
Neera entered, finding the triplets and their three adorable pets rolling around on the carpet, clearly enjoying themselves. Meanwhile, Jean was seated on the couch, engrossed in reading documents.
This scene brought an inexplicable sense of contentment as if time had momentarily frozen in a tranquil
moment.
