Pursuing Her

Chapter 159 I Do Not Live Just To Please You

Sophie was the one who did the suturing at the end of the surgery. Arius knew that she had been reading up a lot on that and that she was gifted in the procedural skill. Back when she was at Horington, she practiced on animals and participated in a few surgeries. Although those were nothing compared to that highly challenging operation, Sophie still performed splendidly.

Arius’s eyes gleamed with excitement as he watched her.

Dr. Smith is right. She’s a gem. I can totally see why he has always wanted to be her mentor. Her fingers are dexterous and she’s really good.

“Sophie, you should come with me to the medical association after your grandpa gets well.”

Arius was determined on nurturing her talent.

She was the most gifted person he had ever seen.

“We’ll see,” Sophie replied casually without taking her eyes off her hands.

It was her principle to always give all her attention to a patient when she was performing surgery.

She would not allow even the slightest mistake.

After closing up the wound, Sophie put aside the needle driver and looked at her suture work with a satisfied smile.

Seeing that Sophie was someone who derived joy from her work, Arius was confident that one day she would willingly join him.

“Good job. You may leave the rest to them,” he said.

The doctors and nurses came in in scrubs after Arius spoke. When they saw how the surgery was done, they could not help but marvel at the fine work.

When they looked back at Sophie, they could not see any expression on her face because she was still wearing a face mask and surgical cap. All they could see was a pair of cold eyes above the mask.

She walked out with Arius and went on to clean and tidy herself up. When she came back in a new set of clothes, she saw that the director was amazed by how well the surgery was done.
