"Umm... Is the person you''re talking about... that scumbag Stefan?" Leia asked carefully.


    Renee smiled bitterly and answered, "Who else could it be?”


    Leia frowned contemtively, wondering if she should tell Renee the truth. Stefan was the most


    suspicious person in this ident because of his history with Quinton, Shirley''s statement, and


    connections. However, Leia didn''t have concrete evidence, so she couldn''t use Stefan of it.


    Besides, it would only make matters worse by hinting at it; if both parties involved got into a fight again,


    they would all suffer great losses.


    But... What if he did something bad again?


    "Ren, you know how shrewd Stefan is. I think you''d better not trust him too much..." Leia said finally,


    hoping Renee would pick up on the hint.


    "Yeah, I know. There are too many obstacles between us. Quinton’s ident is enough for us to be


    enemies forever, so I don''t want to have anything to do with him. I just want to thank him for helping


    with this surgery.” Renee nced at the surgery room worriedly. Although she was exhausted, her


    mind was still alert.


    There was no use thinking about the impossible or overstepping her boundaries. It was best to keep a


    distance from him; being able to see him was already enough for her.


    "That''s not what I meant. I know you won''t get involved with him again. I just want to remind you to be


    on guard against him because he—"


    "Alright, let''s not talk about him. The surgery will be over soon, so we need to be prepared,” Renee


    interrupted Leia abruptly.


    "Okay, I''ll stop.” Leia could not bear to continue when she noticed the sadness in Renee''s eyes. Maybe


    Renee knew what Leia meant, but she didn''t want to face it. For the sake of her friend''s sanity, Leia


    kept silent.


    Soon the door of the surgery room opened, and Owen came out.


    "Doctor Wagner, how was it? Was the surgery sessful?”


    Renee hurried over to him, her eyes watery.


    "Of course!” Owen took off his mask, a smug smile on his face. "I never fail. Even the god of death


    can''t defeat me.”

    "Oh, that''s great..." Renee heaved a sigh of relief, and her legs wobbled.


    Leia immediately rushed over to support Renee and asked Owen, "Was it really sessful? When will


    Quinton wake up?


    "He''ll wake up after the anesthesia subsides, which should be at around seven or eight o''clock tonight,”


    Owen checked his watch and said with all the confidence of a skilled neurosurgeon.


    Leia narrowed her eyes at him. “Okay, but if he doesn''t wake up by then, it''s on you!”
