Chapter 315
Melanie had just arrived at the waiting area when she received a call from Stephen. He sounded anxious. “I was on a business trip and just found out that your grandfather’s surgery is today. How is he now?”
Melanie had been so busy that she had forgotten to contact Stephen lately. She said, Everything is fine for now.”
“Don’t worry. Albert will be fine. He’s a good person.”
Melanie thanked him and said nothing more.

After a moment of silence, Stephen sighed and continued guiltily, “I’m sorry, Mel. I don’t know why, but I’m never by your side when you’re in trouble.”
Melanie held the phone and said, “It’s something I have to deal with by myself anyway.”
“I seem to be a bad friend to you.” Stephen chuckled helplessly. He was handling many projects and had to go on business trips most of the time.
Melanie did not know how she could make him feel better. She just said, “Don’t worry.”
“Before I left, I reminded Xander to look after you. You can look for him if you need any help,” Stephen said before hanging up the call. He seemed to be busy.
Before the call ended, Melanie heard a woman’s voice from Stephen’s end.
Melanie shook her head, thinking she must have misheard.
However, just as she hung up the call, her phone screen lit up. It was a call from Dylan.
Melanie did not hesitate to decline it.
Dylan would only look for her because she needed money.
Melanie sat in the waiting area all morning. The door finally opened when it was one in the afternoon.
Howard walked out of the operating room, looking tired. Melanie had no strength to get herself off the chair. She could only look at Howard in a daze.
However, if anyone looked closer, they could see her forehead was drenched in sweat and her pale hands were gripping the chair tightly.
Melanie was afraid.
As it got closer to the time the surgery was expected to end, her heart hammered faster.
She was afraid of hearing the last thing she wanted to hear when the door opened.
She was scared…
“Hmph! Haven’t you been insisting on me doing this surgery on your grandfather? Why are you so afraid now?”
Howard saw her sitting there with her face looking pale. He took off the mask and stared at her as he said thoughtfully, “The surgery is successful, and your grandfather is fine.”
Chapter 915
Melanie blinked her eyes and looked at Howard as if she had not realized what he had just said.
Howard had no patience to repeat his words. He left after saying that.
Albert was sent to the ICU after the surgery. Dr. Wells told Melanie the surgery was successful, and the blood clot in his brain was removed. The blockage was also cleared, so he just had to recuperate.
As long as his wound was not infected and it recovered fully, he would be fine.
Melanie was busy dealing with all kinds of procedures. She only headed to Dr. Wells‘ office after that.
She wanted to have a word with Howard.
However, Howard was not there.
Dr. Wells said, “Mr. Scott picked Dr. Hel up and just left. Didn’t you see them on the way here?”
Melanie was startled to know Eugene had taken Howard away.
She thought Eugene had left long ago.
However, she did not think much of it. After leaving the office, she called Eugene,
The phone rang for a while before Eugene answered it in his usual lazy voice. It sounded at little sexy. “Yes?”
From his voice, Melanie could tell he was in a good mood.
