Chapter 599 Successful Surgery The surgery lasted a full three hours, and at almost one o'clock in the afternoon, the lights in the operating room finally went out.
Thomas, wearing surgical attire, emerged from the operating room. He was slightly trembling, showing signs of fatigue.
Scott immediately went to support his grandfather. Although he often bantered with his grandfather on ordinary days, he cared more about the old man than anyone else at crucial moments.
“Grandpa, you should rest for a while!” “I am still strong. No problem!” Thomas sat down, panting yet with a smiling face.
Audrey was deeply worried. If she hadn’t seen Thomas being too tired just now, she would have immediately inquired about the situation.
Now, all she could do was stand patiently on the side, waiting for Thomas to catch his breath before providing them with answers.
Thomas had been a doctor for so many years, so how could he not understand what his patients were feeling? After resting for a while, Thomas turned to Audrey and slowly said, ” Don’t worry. Your father’s surgery was very successful. Not only did we save his life, but we also cleared the blood clots in his brain!” Upon hearing this, Audrey was so excited that she almost jumped up. She turned around and grabbed Catherine's hand, eagerly asking, “Did you hear that? Dad is going to be okay!” Catherine nodded calmly, showing no excessive excitement. She had brought Thomas here only to save Korbin’s life; what happened afterward was not her concern.
Unnoticed by everyone, Liana, who had been silently Bing in the corner, slipped away after hearing this news.
In the hallway, Liana trembled, unsure of what to do. If Catherine and the others found out that she was the cause of her father’s condition, they would not spare her.
She had now realized one thing-she currently lacked the power to defeat Catherine. She could only wait patiently for an opportunity, a chance to bring Catherine down.

But Catherine would surely cafter her if her father woke up and revealed the truth.
Without the ability to fight back, how could she confront Catherine? After all the effort and grievances she had endured, she couldn't bear to give up now. No, she absolutely could not give up.
If her father could sleep once, then let him sleep a second time. As long as he kept his life, that would be enough.
Korbin was wheeled out of the operating room and transferred to the intensive care unit.
Having just undergone surgery, he wouldn't wake up so quickly; he needed to be observed for another three days.
For a long tto come, he would need to stay in the intensive care unit, gradually recovering.
Audrey was overjoyed with this outcome, She had never thought that her father would have a chance to get better, and all of this was closely tied to Catherine.
From Rhys, she had learned how powerful Mr. Theo was and understood that the more skilled a person was, the harder they were to approach.
Who would bother with them if it weren't for Catherine's influence? Audrey felt sorry for Catherine. She had been treated poorly since childhood, and yet she repaid it with kindness in the end.
“Kathy, you guys go back. The surgery is over now, and I'll take care of things here. I've asked Kim to helpreschedule sof my acting commitments. For the next while, Ill fully focus on caring for Dad.” Catherine hadn't been raised by her parents since childhood, and after finally returning to the Swanns, she still faced unfair treatment. Audrey believed that she didn’t owe anything to her parents.
Audrey, however, was different. Her parents had raised her, and now, she couldn't rest easy to entrust her father to Rachael's care, so naturally, she had to take tout to care for her father.
Catherine had no objections. She had already arranged for caregivers; if Audrey insisted, she could stay.
She had no obligation to Korbin and wouldn't sacrifice her tto care for him. Saving Korbin’s life was the kindest thing she had ever done in her life.
“Let's go!” Catherine told Branden, and they all left the hospital together.
With the critical surgery over, the rest could be handled by Rhys and the hospital staff, and Thomas did not need to stay. He left with Catherine and the others.
Seeing Catherine’s group leaving, Liana felt secretly triumphant.
She had been worried that with Catherine around, she wouldn't find a suitable opportunity. To her surprise, Catherine didn’t care about Korbin at all.
Now that they were gone, she could carry out her plans. After leaving the hospital, Catherine had Branden take her to the Swann Corporation.
Since going to Loxton, she had entrusted the Swann Corporation to a professional manager. Now that she was back, it was a good tto check on things.
Initially, she wanted to send Thomas to the Duncans’ old mansion to catch up with Karl. Unexpectedly, Thomas disagreed and insisted on following her.
“Cassie, takewith you. | promise not to disturb your work!” Seeing his determination, Catherine agreed.

She took Branden'’s car keys and personally drove. As soon as she pressed the accelerator, the high- performance car sped away.
Scott, who had never been in such a fast car, turned pale with fright. ” Catherine, can you drive a bit slower?” “You're still so green!”
: . , Upon hearing his grandfather's teasing, Scott turned around, ready to mock him. Unexpesgedly, grandfther rémained calm, steadily sitting in the back seat without even blinking. It was as if the high-speed racing car did not affect him. Seeing his grandson glance over, Thomas calmly said, “When | used to race, your father was still in school.” This remark left Scott completely at a loss for words.
If he retorted, it would be the sas insulting his own father. Hi m grandfather was too cunning .Scott could not say anything and obediently sat in the seat. Catherine drove the car to its top speed, then stopped by a park.
She pushed open the car door and stepped out, with Thomas following suit.
Just as Scott was about to move, Thomas stopped him with a stern look. “Sit still!” Rarely did his grandfather look so serious, and Scott was startled, obediently sitting back down.
Catherine leaned against the side of a corridor, waiting for Thomas to walk over slowly.
Supporting himself with a cane, Thomas panted as he reached Catherine’s side.
Just as he stopped, he laughed and pretended to scold Catherine, saying, ” Girl, how can you walk that fast with your long legs? Don’t bully the old man! Catherine raised an eyebrow and looked at him. “Mr. Theo, just say what you have to say.”
Seeing her like this, Thomas, with his straightforward nature didn't bther concealing anything .He burst into laughter .Haha, you're indeed sharp.
Nothing can escape your notice!”
