“Dr. Dunn, are you sure you don’t want to consider doing the surgery for Mr. Lewis together?”
This was a matter of priority discussion for the previous rescue team.
Richelle Dunn shook her head, “No, with his current physical condition, it’s already a matter of luck if he can hold on through the other surgeries.”
Richelle tried to put herself in the position of a doctor rather than a lover; otherwise, she could only break down and cry outside.
Doctors on both sides of the operating table were familiar with her medical skills.
So, after mentioning it briefly, they didn’t say much more.
Richelle Dunn stood in front of the operating table for a full seven hours, and as she had predicted, the blood in the blood bank was not enough. If it weren’t for her foresight, Roy Lewis would not have made it through the surgery.
After completing her last task, Richelle glanced at the monitor next to her and bent down to gently kiss Roy Lewis’ face, which was covered in blood.
After the kiss, she seemed to have lost all her strength and collapsed to the ground.
The dean, who had been watching from the side, hurriedly called for a stretcher to carry Richelle out.
“Leave him in the ICU overnight. If nothing unexpected happens, he should wake up by tomorrow noon.”
Richelle told the dean before closing her eyes on the stretcher.
The more than seven-hour surgery seemed to drain all her energy.
Even though she usually had no trouble standing at the operating table for more than ten hours, she didn’t feel as tired as she was now.
Richelle Dunn was sent back to the rest room, had a cup of hot milk, lay down for half an hour, and then went to stand guard outside the ICU ward.
Every now and then, the dean would come by to check on her, seeing her exhausted and unable to sit still.
“Dr. Dunn, Mr. Lewis is very lucky, he’ll be alright.”
Richelle Dunn nodded, “I know!”
She had confidence in her professional skills.
Moreover, she knew Roy Lewis’ physical condition very well.
In addition, his will to survive was strong, and his life wasn’t in danger.
She was just afraid he would be left with any sequelae.
Seeing that she couldn’t be persuaded, the dean had to prepare some food for her.
Richelle Dunn sat in the corridor chair, closing her eyes and leaning against the back of the chair.
“Dr. Dunn!”
“Richelle!”
Richelle Dunn opened her eyes and saw Kennedy Green and Nathan Caroule standing in the corridor.
She quickly stood up.
Kennedy Green reached out to hold her shoulder, “Sit down! Why didn’t you sleep for a while in the rest room?”
Richelle first called him uncle, shook her head lightly, and smiled bitterly.
“I couldn’t sleep…”
Nathan handed her a bottle of drink.
Richelle took it, said thank you, and asked.
“When did you get here?”
“We arrived early. When you went into the operating room, Mr. Green and I had just left. When you were carried out on the stretcher with your eyes closed earlier, we didn’t want to disturb you.”
Richelle nodded, opened the bottle cap, drank half a bottle of water, and looked up.
After she finished drinking, Kennedy Green looked at her with an apologetic expression.
“Richelle, sorry, I didn’t expect this to happen…”
Richelle hurriedly comforted him, “Uncle, it’s not your fault. Who could have predicted their intentions?”
Kennedy Green seemed to have aged overnight, having lost his usual spirited look.
Looking at him like this, Richelle felt a pang of heartache.
“Uncle, don’t worry, Roy is fine! He has a good foundation and will pull through.”
For her, Roy was an important lover and the father of her child.
For Kennedy Green, Roy was the nephew he had promised his sister to take good care of.
After sitting for a while, Richelle asked Nathan to take Kennedy Green home.
But Kennedy Green wouldn’t agree.
Richelle then persuaded him, “Uncle, Roy is basically out of danger now. You might as well go home and have a good night’s sleep. When you wake up tomorrow, he might be awake too.”
Nathan also persuaded him, “Mr. Green, if you collapse from exhaustion, won’t you be adding more burden to Master Lewis?”
Kennedy Green himself was entangled in numerous affairs, and each of them was a big deal. If he collapsed here due to exhaustion, it would be a real disaster.
The two of them finally managed to persuade Kennedy Green together.
When Nathan was about to leave, Richelle called out to him again.
“I’ll probably have to stay in the hospital tomorrow. If Denise has time, could she help look after the children at my house?”
Nathan nodded, “Don’t worry about that. Denise and I will take care of everything at home and the children. You take care of yourself, too. Don’t overdo it. There are other doctors watching over Mr. Lewis, and you should go rest for a bit.”
Richelle nodded her head, “Alright, I will.”
Although she agreed, she still sat outside the corridor all night. When she was sleepy, she leaned back against the chair and squinted for a moment, then woke up to check Roy’s various monitoring indicators, confirmed that he was safe, and sat down to rest for a while.
The whole night felt extremely long.
She had always thought that she was saving lives in the operating room as a doctor.
This time, she experienced for the first time the feelings of the loved ones of critically ill patients who spent an anxious night waiting in the corridor!
Moreover, she had confidence in the situation, unlike those uncertain families who were truly suffering from anguish..
