Chapter 1458
"Good, the surgery can proceed as planned then. Where is he?" Francine asked curiously.
"Oh, he..." Elijah glanced at the surgery room. "He entered the room using a staff card. I think the surgery has already started."
"What? It's already started?" Francine quickly put her palms together and prayed, "God, please protect him, I beg you... As long
as he's safe, I’ll do my best to separate him from Renee!"
Elijah frowned, looking perplexed. "Madam, why do you want to break up the couple after you agreed to the surgery? Didn't you
say that you wouldn't meddle in his life anymore, and you'll let him make his own decisions?"
"I did say that, but a fortune teller told me that they're incompatible, and they'll be in serious trouble if they get together. So, I've
got to be the villain here to keep them safe, " Francine answered honestly. Of course, it was also up to them whether or not they
could overcome the obstacles in their path and be with each other forever.
"Madam, when did you become so superstitious?" Elijah was amused by Francine's reply. When Francine was young, her love
life had been dramatic and exciting, much like Renee and Stefan's love story. Back then, she used to think that everyone was the
master of their own fate, but now, she had decided to turn to God. If Francine didn't want Stefan
and Renee to be together just because a fortune teller said so, Elijah really didn't know what to say.
"I think Madam Francine is right. Think about it-didn't Stefan always get into trouble when he was with Renee? When they were
together, he lost his sight and was on the verge of death, so maybe they really are incompatible.
Separating them might be good, as the fortune teller said. A lot of celebrities believe in fortune tellers now, you know..."
Seraphina blurted out, eagerly trying to ruin any possibility of Stefan and Renee being together.
"We'll talk about it later. Maybe he won't be so obsessed with Renee even if he remembers who she is. We'll just have to see
how the surgery turns out..." Elijah said curtly, forced to say something to keep the crazy woman at bay.
"Yes, you're right. His safety is the most important thing right now." Francine stopped worrying about other things, just wanting
her son to make it through the surgery safely.
Hours passed, but the door to the operating room stayed shut.
Francine asked nervously, "Why isn't it over yet? Did something happen?"
"No, don't worry. This surgery is very difficult since it involves the brain. I'm sure it's going well since it's taking this long." Elijah
tried to comfort Francine, but he wasn't that confident about the outcome since brain surgery was the most complicated surgery.
Even the slightest mistake could cause serious consequences.
After a while, the door to the operating room finally opened...
