Chapter 523 “Bella, get your ass to the hospital! No tfor chitchat, hurry!!!” It was Caden on the line.
Caden was always a chill dude, so for him to be in such a tizzy, she didn’t need to think twice, something bad must've happened to Granny! In no time, a roaring sports car zoomed off from the other side of the villa.
Louisa, who had just gotten up for a drink, heard the noise and glanced out the window, catching sight of a red Ferrari disappearing into the distance What the hell was Bella up to this late at night? Something must've gone down.

A place that would normally take half an hour to reach, she managed to get there in just ten. The car screeched to a halt at the hospital entrance, giving the waiting nurse quite a fright.
Arabella’s car had nearly mowed her down! Catching her breath, she hurried over, “Ms. Bella, thank God you're here! Dr. Caden hadwait for you, your granny’s condition is critical, we've missed the golden window for treatment!” Arabella froze for a second, then quickened her pace towards room 301.
“Ms. Bella, wait for me,” the nurse couldn't keep up with her.
Like a whirlwind, Arabella reached room 301, only to find it empty.
“Ms. Bella, the operating room! Please quickly change into the surgical gown,” Another nurse reminded.
Arabella changed into the sterile gown in a flash, and as she entered the operating room, all the monitors were screaming one thing: Granny was on the brink! “A ruptured heart caused by a heart attack! Quick!” Caden’s voice snapped her back to reality A ruptured heart caused by a heart attack was the most severe complication of myocardial infarction The condition was extremely dangerous, with a mortality rate of 100% within a short time. Many people died on the spot before they can even be taken to the hospital.
Luckily, granny was in the ward when it happened, and the nurse on duty noticed and rushed her to surgery Before Arabella arrived, Caden had already opened Granny’s chest. He quickly cannulated the femoral artery, and opened the pericardium, but bad news struck: there were large clots in the pericardium.

“Damn, sudden ventricular fibrillation!” a doctor cried out.
Arabella reacted instantly, “Defibrillate.” Not long after, the doctors breathed a sigh of relief, “Defibrillation successful, heart rhythm restored, blood pressure back to 70mmhg “I'll deal with the clots!” Arabella took over.
Last time, a doctor had seen her deal with adhesion and clots, so he knew that she was a whiz at it, so they let her handle it.
After Arabella finished, she instructed someone to cannulate a vein to establish extracorporeal circulation, but soon, more bad news c “Damn, blood pressure is dropping again!” a doctor reported.
Arabella kept her cool, “Block the ascending aorta, infuse cardioplegia to soften the heartbeat!” “Blockage successful, cardioplegia infused.” “Externally palpate the ascending aorta.” Upon Arabella’s command, a doctor palpated the ascending aorta, “Palpation complete, no obvious thickening or intramural hematoma” The possibility of a ruptured ascending aorta was ruled out.
Arabella glanced at the slightly thickened aortic arch, “No signs of aortic dissection, ruling out aortic rupture, initiate cerebral hypothermia” She did this to prevent cerebral ischemia from causing brain damage to Granny
