Chapter 9 The operation is going on.
Nora still remembered that when she called Steward dear after their marriage for the first time, he asked her not to do that for he felt sick of it.
Steward wanted to hug her back, but he did not know why.But this time.Nora left him without any feeling attached.
He was a bit disappointed when she left his body.
Leo was not very far from Nora.he felt very sorry for her. When he saw that Nora took a pen and then signed it firmly, he asked her. “Mrs. Mandel, you haven’t gone through the details in the divorce paper.”
“I don’t care. “Nora smiled.She did not expect anything from Steward.
Leo took the divorce paper and went out.
In the room. Nora and Steward.no longer a couple.did not say anything to each other.
Nora broke the silence by asking.“What time is Ann’s surgery?”
Steward was not used to Nora being so indifferent. Yesterday she was very clingy.
He replied, “At two o’clock this afternoon.”
“Could you give my phone back?”
“Why do you need it?”
Nora did not know why he did not want to give the phone back to her.
“Because I might die on the operating table, I want my friend Mia to take care of me.I hope she will come…”
Mia was Nora’s best friend and she had persuaded Nora not to go out with Steward and was really mad about her being with Steward.
“What are you talking about?“Steward interrupted her, “These are all nonsense.”
Nora did not care what he said to her. She continued, “I want Mia to take care of me.Do you expect to get my parents involved in all this stuff?”
Steward’s chest rose and fell a few times, and he told the bodyguard at the door to return her mobile phone.
Outside the operating room…
Ann was lying on the operating table,holding Steward’s hands,unwilling to let him go.
“Steward, will you wait for me during my surgery?“Ann said.
“Yes,“Steward said with a comforting smile, “I will wait outside and be the first one you can see after your surgery.”
“I do not believe you. The first person I would see must be the doctor or the nurse.”
It seemed like they two were the real couple. Nora stood watching them and wore a cold face.
Steward could not stand her indifference.
He still remembered that the last time he hugged Ann, Nora rushed to separate them.
“Did she want to be strangers to each other after divorce?“Steward thought.
At this time, Leo answered his phone and said in surprise, “Mr.Mandel, Professor James said you could have your eye surgery this afternoon. The sooner, the better!”
Steward did not expect that, and Ann felt very happy for him.
She said, “That’s so great!Soon you can gain your sight and see me. We will both be safe and healthy!”
Steward frowned and bit his lips tight. He had a bad feeling about what was about to happen.
Soon, Nora, Steward and Ann were all sent to the operating rooms.
Nora was lying on the cold operating table.She closed her eyes and put her hands on her belly.
She talked to the baby in her body in silence, “My dear baby,please forgive me.I really hope to hold on to you but I just can’t. It is not your father’s fault. My baby,I am so sorry…”
The tumor she had was malignant and the risk of the operation was very high.So she would spend the last few days with Steward rather than die on the operating table.
Now, she was tired of her life.She will leave the world with her baby.
The operations of Nora, Steward and Ann started at the same time.
Outside the operating room, Leo overheard that Nora donated both her kidney and cornea.He could hardly believe it! She must have donated her cornea to Mr.Mandel!
The doctor walked out of the operating room where Nora was and said, “The situation is critical but we will try our best…”
