Chapter 671

However, finding the person required time and Malorie could not make it till then.

“Unless what?” asked Henrick anxiously.

Although it was the best-case scenario that Malorie did not die, there was no choice if she did. After all,
he had already come up with a backup plan—he would sell Southall Group and pursue his career back
in his hometown.

It was simple to control all those foolish people in his hometown. If Malorie could do it, he could do it
too.

However, Queenie shook her head. Deciding not to tell him, she said, “It’s nothing. There’s no time.”

“In that case, please let my mother pass away more comfortably.” Henrick pretended to wipe his tears.
In reality, when he made the decision to return to his hometown, he had already steeled himself for
Malorie’s death.

In his opinion, Malorie was about to die anyway. It was sufficient to live to such a ripe old age, so her
death was an event to be celebrated—there was no need for him to grieve.

However, he still had to put up a show.

Queenie nodded and said, “We’ll try our best.”

Not daring to look at Carter, she strode into the emergency room.





A rookie doctor was performing an open-heart operation on Malorie. While he sweated profusely, an
assistant wiped his forehead for him.

When the assistant turned around, he saw Queenie entering

His eyes lit up upon spotting what she was holding. He quickly reminded the surgeon, “There’s hope for
the patient! Dr. Mill’s here with a robotic pacemaker!”

“Really?” The surgeon immediately froze.

However, Queenie said coldly, “Her family member said that he can’t afford to pay for the machine, so
you should just continue with the operation. The family member’s already mentally prepared.
Regardless of what the outcome is, he won’t kick up a fuss.”



The surgeon was stunned for a while, but he quickly resumed his actions.

For the operation, the ruptured blood vessels needed to be reattached first before the heart could be
operated on. However, as the surgeon was inexperienced, he spent a long time attaching the vessels.

Despite watching by the side, Queenie did not intervene.

It would not be good if she intervened and had her name recorded in the operative report.

To maintain her perfect track record of having a



hundred percent success rate for her operations, she could not take this risk.

Finally, the blood vessels were reattached.



However, the heart surgery encountered problems shortly after. The vital sign monitors started to beep
loudly.

“Dr. Mill!” The surgeon glanced at Queenie and said, “The patient can’t hang in there anymore…”

Queenie nodded indifferently. “Okay, I’ll make a notice saying that she’s in a critical stage. Just try your
best.”

“Okay.” The surgeon gritted his teeth and nodded.

When Queenie left the emergency room with the notice, the assistant director was talking to Carter
about Zachary.

“Why didn’t you hold Zachary accountable for his previous fiasco and only pursue this matter?”

Carter raised his eyebrow. “Well, it’s to give him a last glimmer of hope. Once he finds another place to
work, we’ll expose his dark past… Isn’t that a better way of handling it?”

True despair was after getting struck down a second time after having a brief illusion of hope.

When Queenie heard their conversation, her hands trembled.



Carter is more ruthless than I imagined. Luckily, Zachary, that fool, did not expose me. Otherwise, I
can’t imagine how Carter will treat me.

However, Queenie was not that afraid. As she was not interested in that insignificant money, she did
not have a dark past like Zachary’s.

However, at that moment…
