Charlotte went to the hospital to check on the patient. When the patient’s family members found out that she was the surgeon, they almost knelt down to show their gratitude.
Charlotte and the accompanying medical staff hurriedly stopped and helped the family member up, saying, “What are you doing? Saving lives and helping the wounded is our responsibility.”
“If it weren’t for you, my son would have lost his life long ago. It is you who gave him hope of survival. I am truly grateful to you,” the elderly mother of the patient wept, more tears of joy mixed with the relief of surviving a disaster.
They, as doctors, have seen life and death, and it is a great blessing to be able to save a life from the hands of death.
The patient, who underwent surgery, is now out of danger with no apparent sequelae. It is fortunate in the midst of misfortune.
Charlotte supported the old woman, comforted her for a few moments, gave some instructions, and then left the ward with the medical staff.
When she returned to the office, she suddenly received a phone call from her father, Gustavo Sutton.
After hesitating for a while, I answered the call.
Charlotte, can you come back with Jaxson for a while?”
Charlotte vaguely guessed something, her face not looking very good,“Just say it if you have something.”
‘Did you say that? Can’t you go home for a while even if there’s nothing wrong? You must come back in the afternoon.”
Before Charlotte could refuse, the other party hung up the phone.
Jaxson was in a meeting at the company when he also received a text message from Caroline:“Jaxson, Collin has already arrived at the kindergarten. Thank you, if it weren’t for you, Collin wouldn’t be able to go to school yet.”
He glanced over, tapped the screen with his fingertips, and replied with two words, “It’s fine.”
When I opened WhatsApp, my gaze suddenly fixed on Charlotte’s chat box.
He just noticed that the last message she sent was on the 8th of last month.
She asked him if he would come over on the weekend.
He didn’t reply.
Until now, she has not sent him another message.
