| couldn't tell if it was my parents watching overfrom the heavens, but somehow, in my past life, Max

uncovered the truth about my untimely demise. In this life, Max tookunder his wing as a student and saved

my life.

After wolfing down the chicken soup, I glanced at the clock and realized | was running late for work. In a dash, |

slipped into my shoes, grabbed my bag, and bolted for the elevator. For sreason, | felt unusually full. It

seemed Max had already left for work. After arriving at the hospital, a nurse said, "Dr. Floyd, Dr. Hilton asked you

to prep for surgery. You'll be assisting him in half an hour."

Eating a full breakfast was his way of making sure | was ready to stand by his side during surgery, remembering

how | nearly fainted from hunger the last twe were in for hours.

"Got it," | replied.

"Oh, and Dr. Hilton said to remind you to eat breakfast so we don't have a repeat of last time's mishap." the

nurse added with a sympathetic look, oblivious to the fact that I relished the moments spent beside him at the

operating table. | replied, "It's fine."

"This surgery is for a criminal. | heard he assaulted a woman last night. Mr. Collins had him in custody when they

got into a car crash. It was on Mr. Collins' way back to the station that he found the guy had lost a lot of blood

and suffered multiple fractures, and another officer lost his life because of it. What a shame. Since he's a major

suspect, we have no choice but to operate and see if we can save him. However, even if we do, he'll likely

becparalyzed. Plus, his tongue was gone, and it looked deliberate. Dr. Hilton believes it was an intentional

act."

My smile instantly faded. "The criminal, Daniel?"

The nurse nodded. "Yeah, did Dr. Hilton tell you?"

When | received confirmation, my face must have turned paler. | didn't need a mirror to know. In this life, Daniel

couldn't escape the fate of being bedridden. Justice never spares the wicked.

But someone had cut off his tongue. Someone orchestrated this! Did Kate do that? But Kate was supposed to be

with Claude the night before.

The nurse reminded me, "Dr. Floyd, it's tfor surgery."

Without further thought, | changed into my surgical gear, went through the disinfection routine, and entered the

OR to find Max deep in review of the patient's case.

Noting my entrance, he seemed unperturbed by the events of the previous night and briefed me, "He has

multiple fractures. One of the ribs has punctured his heart. | need you to operate with me. I've seen your record.

You've been in numerous cardiac surgeries with

your mentor, so the heart surgery is

yours. I'll handle the rest."

| froze, looking at Daniel's face. His cheekbone shattered, his face a mess of blood, unrecognizable from before.

Max said, "Claire, remember you are a doctor."

| was a doctor, yet also the woman this bad guy attempted to assault last night. And the woman he had wronged

and led to a tragic end in my past life. How could | get past this hurdle?

"He has to live to expose the mastermind behind him. He's harmed more than one woman. If he lives, the real

perpetrator would be scared," Max's words were forto hear.

The nurses and anesthesiologists in

the room nodded in agreement, looking at me, "Right, Dr. Floyd We have to do everything we can to save him,

for the sake of those innocent women."

| lowered my gaze to the location of his heart, knowing he deserved death. But without catching the mastermind,

countless Daniels would emerge. Who would harmnext might be someone | didn't know or even more

dangerous.

"I understand, Dr. Hilton." | looked at Max with determination, whispering a "Thank you." But with the mask on,

he might not have heard me. He was ready to begin, and so was I.
