The Runaway Groom Chapter 842
Neil’s face contorted with rage. “You devious witch.”
Irene, however, was unmoved—she had seen through Neil’s true nature and she was not interested in being petty
like him!
Dennis, however, almost passed out again from sheer frustration toward his son!
Pointing at him, he snapped, “Don’t you know that I’d be dead if she didn’t insist on operating on me?! She put
everything on the line to save me, but you sued her instead of thanking her?! Who taught you to be such an
ingrate, huh?!”
Neil retorted stubbornly, “She broke regulation—”
“Do you think I’d be alive if she followed regulation?!” Dennis huffed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtIrene simply stood in her corner, watching quietly.
Ray, worried that Dennis would get a stroke again, quickly rubbed his back. “You just woke up—try to stay calm or
it’d hamper your recovery. Just talk things out with him calmly.”
Then, he turned toward Neil and said, “I’m the one who told your father. In my opinion, you made a mistake, which
was why I decided on my own to tell him. Complain to me if you have any grievances—stop taking it out on a
woman.”
Neil’s face twitched. “What, so you are all the good guys, while I’m the villain?!”
“You made a mistake, so own up to it! Quit being so stubborn and blame everything except yourself. And go to
court right now and withdraw the lawsuit, or I’m disowning you!” Dennis snapped, issuing an ultimatum.
Even though Neil was pigheaded, he was still obedient to Dennis.
“Alright, I’ll go. Just calm down, or you’ll affect your health. The only people who really care about you is me and the
family—”
“Whatever. I’m content as long as you don’t give me a heart attack,” Dennis said, waving him off and not willing to
listen!
As Neil left, Dennis was wheeled to his ward while Ray returned to work.
Irene was alone with Dennis in his ward, and he watched her for a long while in silence before asking, “Weren’t you
afraid? You were using an untested prototype on me. You knew you would be in deep trouble if anything went
wrong.”
“I actually wasn’t afraid of anything when I did it,” Irene admitted. “I believe that saving people is my duty, and I
want to do my best whatever it takes… Until your son sued me.”
She paused before continuing, saying, “I hold no grievance against your son, Director Turner… but this incident
made me understand that I might have been too naive—too idealistic. In fact, I might have considered myself much
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmtoo noble to consider the pressure of saving a life, even breaking regulations to do what I had in mind. Now that
I’ve calmed down and thought about it, my obstinance just occurred from the heat of the moment. And wouldn’t it
be a mess if everyone broke regulations?”
Dennis chuckled. “Why does it sound like you regret saving me?”
Irene smiled but shook her head. “I just did everything I could—I don’t even know if I saved you.”
“Then do you understand that this is simply extraordinary to me?” Dennis told her, bluntly and earnestly. “Thank
you for preserving through the pressure, and for using that artificial heart our research center developed. My
recovery will be the best testimony to our success, that all our efforts over the years have finally paid off.”
Irene’s sacrifice saved his life, while he became the first patient in the nation with an artificial heart!
And with Dennis being a precedent, more would come to accept the device, even using it.
That in turn would mean more lives saved.
Someone leaked news about Dennis’s artificial heart transplant as well, and journalists came there for interviews,
interested in getting the latest development in the medical field.
Though Dennis was basically mobbed, he looked spirited.
Relieved, Irene left his ward, but she saw a person walking toward the ward as she turned!
