Attracted By My Ex-wife

"Doctor, I have given you enough money. Besides, you have promised me and I have recorded the conversation. If you don't do it now, I will sue you and your career will come to an end in no time. I don't think you would want that." Selma served the cold threat matter-of-factly as she inspected her nails.

The doctor gulped and nodded. He had no other choice but to comply with her since he was well aware that Selma's threats were anything but empty. AN Group had the power to destroy a person's life in seconds without a second thought.

Although he felt pity for the cute little girl, he had to do this if he wanted to keep his job.

He walked into the operating room and turned his gaze towards Sally who smiled at him and said conspiratorially, "Doctor, I know Grandma is making a mistake again, but it doesn't matter. Mom will come and rescue me."

Grandma?

The doctor was taken aback. He subconsciously turned his head to look at the old lady, but couldn't see anything through the door. He was surprised that such a lovely girl was Selma's granddaughter.

He shook his head in disbelief.

Was Selma crazy, doing such a cruel thing like removing the heart of such a lovely girl, who was actually her own blood? She was really a heartless woman.

"Your name is Sally, right?" he asked her with a faux friendly smile.

Sally nodded. "Yes." Looking at him quizzically, she asked, "Doctor, why do you keep such dangerous things? Mom always forbids me from playing with knives. She says that if I play with them then I will get hurt.

Although I know Mom will come, but I'm still a little scared." The Doctor remained silent as she babbled on. "Is Mom here? My mother's name is Anne. She is very beautiful. People say that she is a beauty." Her eyes shone with pride and fondness for her mother.

While speaking about Anne, Sally felt a little disgruntled. Her eyes started welling up. "Last time, mom came fast but this time she is late."

The doctor sighed and looked at his assistant, silently asking for help but the latter looked back at him helplessly.

The little girl was so cute that no one could or should think of hurting her.

Moreover, what he was about to do was immoral!

The assistant whispered in a pleading tone, "Doctor, we'd better not move forward with it. Look at her..." A lovely child would always make people soft. The female doctor shook her head and put the knife aside, not willing to take part in the heinous crime.

The doctor sighed, aggravated. He did not want to hurt this girl either but then if he didn't...

"Stop hesitating and finish the operation if you still want to stay in A City. Otherwise, all of us will be doomed," he said coldly.

Everyone looked at each other. They knew that they couldn't offend the woman outside, but this cute child...

The door of the operating room closed, and the two words "In Surgery" appeared on the display panel above the door.

Outside, Selma sat on a chair and stared at the glowing words on the display.

There was no sound of crying coming from inside. Had the anesthesia begun to work?

Tears of guilt slowly rolled down her cheeks. She buried her face in her hands.
