Saying Goodbye to My Troubles (Nydia and Mick)

Chapter 57

While Mick was ruthless, Buck had never wronged her. On the contrary, he had even offered het a way out of awkward situations on several occasions.

She wiped her hands, then said, "Norman, I need to work overtime. I'll leave Bella in your care.

Norman was a little reluctant.

"Ms. Vega, will you come back?"

Nydia nodded, reassuring him, "I'll come visit Bella whenever I have the chance. You need to take good care of her, alright?"

"Okay." He suddenly felt a sense of responsibility and was energized. "I promise to complete the mission!"

Nydia chuckled at his response, grabbed her coat, and left to hail a cab.

Meanwhile, on the second floor, Eddie was standing before a window with a teacup in his hand.

Next to him, Wayne was giving him a report.

"There's news from the hospital. Mr. Wilcher made a call."

Eddie's hand froze briefly, spilling a few drops of tea.

Downstairs, a cab sped away, disappearing into the traffic flow.

Wayne lowered his gaze and added, "Mr. Barton Senior is critically ill. Mr. Houle, you should pay him a visit. Shall I arrange a time?"

Eddie set the teacup down and said, "Yeah."

His tone was calm, making his emotions indiscemible.

Wayne quickly left to make arrangements.

When holding his head.

Nudia arrived at the hospital, she saw Buck squatting on the grou

He looked utterly drained, as if sapped of all his strength. It felt like one more setback was all

it took for him to suffer a mental breakdown.

Mick stood by the open window. The cold wind blew in, lifting the hem of his suit jacket. His stern face carried a hint of irritation, which only made his sharp features even more striking

When he saw Nydia, he sneered coldly. "At least you're not making a scene. That's a smart

move."

Having decided to come and help, Nydia wanted to make the most of her time examining the patient. She didn't want to waste any energy arguing with Mick, so she ignored his comment and headed straight for the operating room. Before she could leave, Buck suddenly stood up and grabbed her arm. "Nydia!"

His eyes were red.

"Call me Dr. Vega."

Buck was taken aback. "You..."

"As a doctor, I will do my best. Beyond that, I cant make you any promises."

That was the first time Mick and Buck had seen Nydia so resolute. Her demeanor radiated a

calm fearlessness, a readiness to face challenges head-on no matter how daunting they may

1. be.

At that moment, everything around her seemed to blur. Only she stood out as if illuminated by her own light, standing tall between heaven and earth.

The doors to the operating room opened, then closed again.

For a long time, Mick stood rooted to the spot, unable to snap out of his daze.

All of a sudden, he felt as though he had never truly known Nydia.

Inside the operating room, Nydia changed into sterile scrubs and reported to the group of specialists.

"You're here," one of them greeted her.

Mr. Barton Senior was already under anesthesia, and another specialist was making an incision into his chest.

With one cut, the faintly beating heart was exposed under the surgical light, casting a heavy atmosphere over the room.

Nydia nodded briefly at the specialist who greeted her, then focused her attention on the operating table.

The other specialists gathered around, searching for the lesion.

However, the area near the heart was incredibly complex, leaving the group of specialists frowning deeply. They then exchanged a quick glance.

One of the senior doctors, Warren Townes, spoke up, "Dr. Vega, you're young and probably haven't performed a major surgery like this. This time, we'll let you take the lead." Nydia was stunned.

She had come to assist, not to be the primary surgeon.

"No, this is a serious matter. I should stick to assisting."

"Don't worry. We'll be here as your backup," Warren reassured her.

"That's right," another doctor chimed in. "The surgery is fully recorded. Are you afraid we'd set you up?"
