Chapter 313

Albert’s surgery was arranged on Friday morning.

Melanie got to the hospital at midnight. She could not fall asleep all night and decided to accompany

her grandfather.

Howard had repeatedly reminded her not to have high hopes for the surgery. He told her Albert’s

condition was terrible, and the risks this surgery posed to Albert were higher.

Melanie knew about this. However, she also knew Albert would not want to live the rest of his life

bedridden. Thus, she chose to have him undergo the surgery.

When she arrived at the ward, Albert was still sleeping. Melanie did not want to disturb him and waited

outside.

When it was six in the morning, Albert woke up. His surgery was arranged before everyone else’s for

that day.

Albert had to keep his stomach empty and could not drink water because of the anesthetic. Melanie

calmly wet her grandfather’s lips with a cotton bud.

Albert stared at her with his hazy eyes. Melanie smiled and said, “Don’t worry. Dr. Hel is a professional.

You just have to nap, and everything will be fine.”

Albert opened his mouth and used all his might to utter, “Don’t… be afraid.”

Melanie froze. Her long eyelashes drooped, and they hid her emotions.

She squeezed Albert’s hand lightly before taking out the charm from her necklace.

“Look, I brought the charm you gave me.” Melanie took off the charm and placed it before Albert. Her

eyes were red, yet she endured her emotions as she spoke. She did not want to let

Albert know her worries.

She was not sure if Albert noticed her emotions. He rubbed his fingers on the charm and muttered

something with his lips slightly parted.

When Xander called, Albert had just gone into the operating room.

The surgery would usually take five to six hours. Melanie had followed them to the waiting area outside

the operating room.

She picked up the call, yet her eyes were still fixed on the red light above the operating room.

Xander’s deep voice came through the other end of the call. “Has your grandfather gone into the

operating room?”

He knew Melanie had gone to the hospital at midnight and wanted to accompany her. However, he was

busy with his work and could not leave.

“He just went in,” said Melanie.

Xander froze. He could not comfort Melanie with words. After pondering, he asked Melanie, ” You said

your grandfather could eat ordinary food. Maybe we can make some chicken noodle soup for him? Do

you want me to ask Aunt Fiona if she could make some?”

Melanie would have forgotten about this if Xander had not reminded her.

She thought for a while before saying, “I’ll pay Aunt Fiona later. Please ask her to do me this favor.

Thank you.”

Xander told her something else, and Melanie was distracted until they hung up the call. Xander was

called away to deal with some work stuff.

Messages popped up in the WhatsApp group. They were all from Reny and the others, asking Melanie

about Albert.

After replying a few, Melanie stopped using her phone.

However, her heart hammered when her gaze fell on the operating room again.

It felt as if she was in a room with no air.

Melanie did not want to leave, afraid the doctor might look for her.

However, the nurse called Melanie on her phone and asked her to pack Albert’s stuff. She said Albert

would be sent to the ICU after his surgery.

Unexpectedly, she bumped into Stella upstairs.

She had just packed Albert’s stuff and asked the nurse in the nurse’s station about the surgery.

Unfortunately, she encountered Stella standing by the nurse’s station gloomily. She seemed to be

registering something.

It was an inpatient building, and most people here were hospitalized.
