Chapter 3399 Those Eyes Will Soon Belong To Kassy
For Shanks, no matter how skilled the two ophthalmologists were, they could not compare to Luca. The key was their smooth coordination. They were used to working together.
If it were other doctors, they would probably start asking questions once they entered the operating room, making it impossible for Shanks to focus and perform the surgery calmly.
Shanks believed this was a groundbreaking procedure, not just another teaching surgery for ophthalmologists.
Abel understood Shanks' concerns, but he still insisted, "They're not just any doctors. They've signed agreements, and they won't interrupt you with questions during the surgery. They'll cooperate fully."
As Luca listened to Abel, she realized what he was really worried about. Besides the risk of the surgery failing, he was not confident in her.
This surgery was important, and Abel was worried she might sabotage it in the operating room.
Shanks furrowed his brows and looked at Luca.
Luca gave him a faint smile. Whether or not she participated in the surgery did not matter much to her. She just felt a little regretful for not being able to witness such a miracle, but other than that, it was not a big issue.
"Mr. Shanks, I hope everything goes smoothly with the surgery." Luca stepped back to make her stance clear.
If Abel did not allow it, she would not board the medical vehicle.
Shanks' eyes grew colder as he turned his gaze to Abel.
Abel, feeling no regret for his decision, gestured toward the medical vehicle. "Go ahead. That person's waiting for you to perform the surgery."
Shanks lowered his voice in a warning. "If anything goes wrong with the surgery, you'll be the one to bear the consequences,"
Abel felt a twinge of doubt.
It would have been best if Luca performed the surgery. However, he was afraid of Luca potentially causing trouble during the procedure.
Abel had to ensure the surgery's success.
"I trust you can handle it." Abel expressed his confidence in him.
Abel did not trust anyone only Shanks. He was the best. If Shanks could not make this surgery work, no one else could.
With that thought in mind, Abel watched Luca as she pursed her lips, her gaze following Shanks as he entered the medical vehicle.
His expression darkened.
Once the two doctors followed Shanks inside and the vehicle doors closed, Luca was about to turn away to get to work when she saw Hera running toward them.
"Darling, you're finally back!" said Hera, her eyes filled with affection.
Luca furrowed her brows. Hera's performance seemed a bit too exaggerated.
She had seen how obsessive Hera could be just to get Luke's contact information, so she knew exactly how she acted when she had feelings for someone.
Luca could clearly see that Hera was just performing for Abel, trying to win him over with her act of love.
Luca did not speak, nor did she have any intention of leaving to get busy anymore. She was more interested in seeing how Hera would try to please Abel.
Abel, perhaps in a good mood that day, raised Hera's chin. In front of everyone, he playfully teased her, "Have you been behaving well these days?"
"Of course." Hera's eyes were full of affection as she deliberately showed her longing and attachment, almost as though she wanted to cling to him.
"Has anyone offended you during this time?" Abel asked, deliberately glancing at Luca.
Hera also glanced at Luca.
She had originally planned to complain about Luca, but remembering the recording in Luca's hands, she could not bring herself to do anything rash. Despite the resentment in her heart, she could only shake her head and answer, "I'm your woman. Who would dare to bully me?"
"You're right." Abel took the opportunity to pull her closer. His eyes were filled with deep affection and obsession when they met hers.
Those eyes would soon belong to Kassy.
His Kassy...
They would reunite soon.
Hera's gaze shifted subtly toward Luca, noticing that Luca was not even looking at her. This confirmed Hera's suspicion. Luca's mind was not on Abel.
Instead, it was on Lucius.
Hera had been preoccupied with one thing for the past few days. She was figuring out how to get Lucius' contact information from Luca.
However, knowing the recording Luca had, she dared not act recklessly.
Her attention shifted back to Abel. "Darling, they say you've been busy these days. What have you been up to? You left me here for so long that I was getting bored out of my mind."
Abel smiled but did not answer the question. His eyes remained fixed on the medical vehicle in the distance.
It was only then that Hera noticed everyone's gaze was on that vehicle.
It had been parked there since she arrived, but since it was not a luxury car, she had not thought much of it. Now, she was starting to get curious. "Darling?"
"Yes?" Abel's gaze did not stray from the vehicle.
"What kind of car is that? Why is everyone staring at it? Is there something special about it?" asked Hera. She had memorized all the luxury car brands to impress men and was certain this was not one of those high-end cars, but she did not know what it was.
"Of course," Abel tightened his hold on her.
Hera's curiosity grew. Unaware of the danger the car might bring her in the future, she asked, "What kind of car is it?"
"This car? It's a life-saving vehicle." Abel suddenly remarked.
"Huh? Is it really that incredible?" Hera's curiosity piqued.
"It's a medical vehicle, and inside, a great transplant surgery is being performed," added Abel.
Hera's face showed surprise and confusion. "Surgery? Can surgery really be done here?"
Although Hera did not understand medicine, she knew that surgery would typically take place in a hospital, where the environment was sterile to ensure the highest chance of survival and reduce postoperative infection risks.
"As long as there's a great doctor, nothing is impossible." Abel smiled. It was as though he had already foreseen the success of the surgery.
Luca remained silent as she listened to their conversation.
Hera asked with some confusion, "A great doctor? Are you referring to Shanks?"
"Of course, it's him. Who else could it be?" Abel gave her face a playful kiss.
In the near future, she, too, would be sent onto this vehicle for surgery to remove her eyes.
Hera was even more surprised. Everyone praised Shanks' medical skills, but for someone so capable, he could not even treat her own inflammation, which eventually had to be treated at a hospital.
Therefore, she had never believed Shanks was all that great of a doctor.
Hera did not know what to say. She could not question Shanks' medical skills in front of Abel, so she could only respond with a smile.
At the same time, she was curious. If Shanks was the one performing the surgery, who was the one receiving it?
Then, Hera remembered that there was someone staying in one of the rooms in the house.
She had asked Gerald about it before. Gerald told her that the person staying inside was recovering here. Could it be that
person?
Hera looked around for Gerald but could not find him.
She felt puzzled. Most people were already here, so where could Gerald have gone?
"Who are you looking for?" Abel noticed her small movements.
"Nothing." Hera smiled as she tucked a loose strand of hair behind her ear.
