Chapter 6 Jenny’s Pride

“I never joke,” she said with a proud smile. Clearly, she was very confident.

If she hadn’t divorced Alec, she would probably still be living her retirement life, so she wouldn’t have had a chance to save Faye. Perhaps it was fate telling her that Faye deserved to live.

After a brief discussion about Faye’s condition, she and Alec left the room. Only then did the smiles on their faces fade away, their solemn expressions returning.

“She should have had an operation earlier.”

“I know,” he admitted, nodding, “but I only just got wind of you.”

“I’m not the only one in this country who can perform this operation.”

Jenny stared at him, unable to comprehend why Alec insisted on having her perform the surgery.

“Yes, others can do it too,” replied Alec. He was silent for a moment before he continued, “but I do not dare to take the risk.”

Jenny’s reputation as an internationally renowned neurosurgeon was unrivaled; therefore, Alec preferred to wait until he found Jenny before letting Faye take the slightest risk.

Jenny understood what he meant, and her heart sank a little. For his lover, Alec was willing to exhaust any possible means.
