Timothy’s eyes darkened as he watched her leave.

Heath swallowed hard before he asked, “Mr. Barett, how do I deal with this document?”

Timothy glanced at him and replied indifferently, “It’s for you. Deal with it on your own.”

Heath was at a loss for words. He felt like he was in a dilemma. It was undeniably a rough day at work

for him.

When Mia arrived home, she recalled Timothy mentioning about getting a new doctor. She was worried

about

Laura’s surgery.

However, the thought of asking him about the surgery slipped her mind when she left the hospital.

She remembered Connor’s acquaintance, who was a doctor. He might be able to offer a piece of

advice.

After all, she was worried about Laura and wished for her speedy recovery after the surgery.

Thus, she gave Connor a call.

“Connor, are you busy now?”

“I’m good. Is there anything wrong?”

“Previously, I mentioned that my friend’s grandmother needs to undergo surgery. And I asked whether

you knew anyone who could do the job, and you said you had someone in mind, right?”

“Yeah, but didn’t you say your friend had found a doctor?”

Mia paused for a while.

“That’s right, but apparently, the doctor isn’t willing to do it anymore. So, we had to look for another

one.”

“I see. Alright, no problem. Tell me the details once I get back.”

“Sure.”

After she hung up, she heaved a sigh of relief. She really hoped that the doctor Connor found would be

willing to perform the surgery.

She waited for him to return from work for the entire night. She even made him some macaroni as

supper.

When Connor came home, the macaroni was the first thing he saw. He beamed with joy instantly.

After he snapped a picture of it, he planned to show it off in the group chat that Mia personally made

supper for him.

He took a seat after he washed his hands.

“Mia, what’s your friend’s grandma’s condition?”

He had to be fully aware of her details before he agreed to perform the surgery.

Mia explained Laura’s condition thoroughly. After all, she used to be her caretaker and knew best about

her

illness.

While Connor busied himself with eating as he listened to her, his expression gradually turned grave.

“This isn’t a simple surgery.”

“Exactly, that’s why we had a hard time finding a suitable doctor. When we finally found one, there was

a sudden change of plans. However, my friend’s grandma couldn’t afford to wait any longer.”

He nodded and answered, “Alright, I should be able to work on it.”

“Really? Do you know someone who can perform this surgery?”

Connor was momentarily stunned when he realized that he nearly blew his cover.

In a haste, he explained, “Yeah! I know a friend who’s an expert in this surgery. Rest assured, your

friend’s grandma will be fine.”

“Alright, I’m relieved.”

Mia was certain that he wouldn’t lie to her.

After a brief pause, she continued, “Connor, is it possible for me to know who your friend is and his

whereabouts? I don’t think my friend’s grandma can wait any longer.”

Connor’s hand came to a halt.

“My friend’s quite busy, so I don’t think he has the luxury to meet you. However, you can pass me the

medical records so I can hand them over to him.

“We’ll set a time for the surgery, and he’ll perform the surgery by then.”

This was the only way he could think of to carry out the surgery for Mia’s friend’s grandmother without

exposing himself.

Mia hesitated. Actually, she already had Laura’s medical records since she used to be her private

caretaker.

But Laura’s name would be found on the medical records. What if Connor found out?
