After My Rebirth, I Became the Beloved Sweetheart of the Big Boss!

Chapter 138 Emergency Surgery



On the busy road, Evan was driving to the hotel.

At the intersection, the red light lit up.

He stopped the car and all he thought about was Suzy.

At this moment, his cell phone rang.

It was an unknown number.

Evan furrowed his brows slightly and only picked it up two seconds later.

A cold and anxious voice came from the other end of the line.

“Mr. Hughes, this is Clifford Smith.”

Clifford, Jepson’s father.

Evan knew that logically speaking, since he was engaged to Wendy, he should have called Clifford “uncle”, but…

“Mr. Smith, what’s wrong?” Evan’s eyes flickered slightly.

“My dad has arrived in Somo City. As soon as he got off the plane, he fainted. His cerebral obstruction flared up. Mr. Hughes, I know that you have huge connections here. My dad is in urgent need of surgery. The situation is urgent now. Do you know any reliable doctors? Can I trouble you…”

Evan’s expression changed. Without waiting for him to finish, he immediately said in a deep voice, “Send Grandpa to The First Hospital in Somo City first. I’ll arrange it right away.”

“Okay, thank you.”

The darkest days of Evan’s life were thanks to Mr. Old Smith’s help. Over the years, he had long regarded Mr. Old Smith as his family. After hesitating for two seconds, Evan quickly turned at the intersection and left for the hospital. Then, he dialed Ervin’s number.

When he arrived at the hospital, his phone rang again.

It was Cherry.

“Where are you? Why haven’t you come yet?”

Evan looked at the time. It was already past eight o’clock. As he hurried into the hospital, he said, “I have something urgent to attend to. You should eat first.”

“Ah, what’s the rush? It’s Suzy’s birthday today. You…”

Before Cherry could finish her words, the phone was cut off. Evan looked at the phone and found that it was powered off.

He frowned slightly and then walked into the elevator.

Mr. Old Smith had been pushed into an operating room.

At the door of the ward, apart from Clifford, Jepson, and Fifth Young Master Henric, the others were also rushing over.

Ervin, dressed in a white lab coat, walked out of the operating theater. He glanced at Evan, his expression a little grim.

“Mr. Smith, Mr. Old Smith’s situation is a little urgent. Could you please sign the consent form…”

Clifford quickly signed it. “Mr. Chaplin, sorry to trouble you.”

“Well, I will try my best.”

At the door of the ward, the expressions on everyone’s faces were very serious. Clifford harshly rebuked the butler beside him.

“Why didn’t you stop Dad from boarding the plane when you knew that he was in poor health?”

Mr. Hal looked crestfallen. “Young Master, I have tried persuading him, but he won’t listen!”

Henric followed up with a few curses, then turned to look at Evan and asked in confusion, “Clifford, who is this?”

“Dad… selected him as the fiance for Wendy!”

Henric: !!!

He was shocked.

He looked Evan up and down and asked a series of questions, “Fiancé? Why didn’t I know about that? What’s your name? What do you do?”

Evan didn’t like the look in her eyes. He pursed his lips and replied lightly, “Evan.”

This name.

Henric naturally knew.

A famous businessman in Somo City!

F*ck!

My dear niece! Where were you? Your fiance had arranged it for you. Came and met him.

At this moment, everyone’s focus was still on the old man. Clifford stared at Jepson with a dark expression and asked, “Did you not get through to Kerr’s call?”

“No.” He shook his head.

Henric slandered, “Why did Kerr lose contact at such a critical moment? But I don’t know where he is now, and it will probably be tomorrow before he arrives…”

Although Evan had never interacted with the other members of the Smith family, he had secretly found out that the five Young Masters were all influential figures. Only the Second Young Master, Kerr, was very mysterious. No one knew what he did for a living.

He had some doubts in his heart. There were so many people in the Smith family who were not there, why did Kerr rush over?

Although he was confused, Evan did not ask any more questions. After sitting for a few minutes, he looked at the operating room, got up, and left.

They took the elevator upstairs and Evan pushed Ervin’s office open.

On the sofa, Marian had just returned to the country. She had already heard about what had happened to Mr. Old Smith. When she saw the person who had come, she immediately stood up.

“Evan…”

He glanced at her indifferently and didn’t say anything. Then he found the charger and charged his phone.

“How is Mr. Old Smith?”

Evan replied, “He’s still in surgery.”

“Ervin’s medical skills are so good that he will definitely be fine. Don’t worry.”

“Yes.”

Evan agreed.

After turning on his phone, he did not avoid Marian’s presence and directly dialed Suzy’s number.

The phone rang for a few seconds before it was slowly picked up. Suzy’s unhappy voice came from the other end of the line.

“Where are you? Cherry told me that you have urgent matters to attend to. Did something happen?”

“Yes, a friend of mine suddenly fell ill. I might be there a little later tonight, sorry.”

“Ah? Do you want me to go with you?”

“There’s no need. Just enjoy yourself over there.” Evan paused for a moment before whispering into the phone, “Happy Birthday.”

Off to the side, Marian’s face was expressionless.

But at this moment, she was madly jealous.Nôvel(D)rama.Org's content.

She had never seen Evan speak to anyone in such a gentle tone.

Marian clenched her fists tightly. Today was Suzy’s birthday! How ridiculous! She had known him for many years, but she had never heard him say happy birthdays to her.

After hanging up the phone, Marian looked at him, pursed her lips, and said, “Now that Mr. Old Smith has a sudden illness, he cares about finding Wendy most, doesn’t he? Evan, the Smith family will try their best to find Wendy next.”

Evan frowned slightly and looked at the person in front of him.

“You’re the person Mr. Old Smith values the most. After finding Wendy, he’ll definitely get you engaged. You and Suzy…”

“That’s none of your business.”

With that, Evan walked away.

Two hours later, the operating room door was opened.

The group got up in a hurry. Evan was the first to ask, “Ervin, how is he?”

“The operation was successful. Mr. Old Smith’s life is not in danger. He won’t wake up until tomorrow.”

As soon as he finished speaking, everyone present heaved a sigh of relief.

Clifford said, “Many thanks, Mr. Chaplin. It’s been tough on you.”

“You’re welcome.”

Ervin responded with a smile and then looked at Evan. Their eyes met and Evan immediately understood what he meant. He then strode away with Ervin.

In the corridor, Ervin took off his mask. “I didn’t say in front of them that Mr. Old Smith’s life was saved, but he is already over 80 years old. All his organs are failing. I estimate that he only has half a year left…”

As soon as he finished speaking, Evan’s expression changed. “Half a year?”

“Yes.” Ervin nodded heavily..
