The Patient Needs an Amputation
Liam was utterly dumbfounded. He had only intended to scare the people a little, and he hadn’t expected
himself to accidentally shove an 80-year-old lady onto the ground. Things just got a lot more
complicated! He hastily spoke up before someone called the cops. “Hey! C-Calm down! I didn’t do it on
purpose. It was an accident…”
“Stop bullsh*tting us!” Trina’s brother shouted. “An accident? Look at the state my grandmother’s in! How
dare you say it was an accident? It looks more like you were beating my grandmother on purpose!”
His words made Liam nervous. “Y-You need evidence to back your words up! How could you say that I
hit her on purpose? Furthermore, it was those women who were hitting me earlier… I was just defending
myself!”
“There are surveillance cameras everywhere, so we have tons of evidence. Did you say that the
women were hitting you? Hmph! How much damage could an 80-year-old lady do to you? You, on the
other hand, are a young and strong man. How dare you call this self-defense when you hurt my
grandmother so badly?!” Trina’s brother howled.
Liam was left speechless. It would’ve been easier for him to speak up for himself if he had hit a young
person, but he couldn’t say much since he had struck an old lady. At that moment, the doors to the
operating theatre opened before a doctor’s shout came from inside. “Can I know where Tate’s family
members are?”
Jonah and his family rushed over immediately. “I’m his father. What is it?”
“The patient is in critical condition, and he needs to get an amputation in order to survive. This surgery
requires a signature from the family members. You guys can discuss and decide whether to allow him to
get an amputation or not.”
All three of them—Jonah, Chloe, and Minerva—were stunned. “I-Isn’t there any way to avoid an
amputation?” Chloe asked in a shaky voice. “My son is only 19, and the rest of his life would be over if
he…”
“I’m sorry. Judging by his present condition, I’m afraid we won’t be able to save his life if he doesn’t get
an amputation!” the doctor explained.
“Then… I’d like to request a transfer! I’ll find him a better hospital. We need to keep both his legs no
matter what!” Jonah cried.
The doctor glanced at Jonah. “No problem! But let me just give you some advice. Based on his current
condition, I don’t think there are many doctors in Eastcliff who can help him. If you guys are thinking of
leaving Eastcliff and seeking help in Eastshire, I’d advise you guys not to do so. He won’t be able to
survive the trip in his current state!”
Jonah’s expression fell as he took a deep breath. “J-Just now, you said that there weren’t many people
who could save my son, right? Then… who are the ones you think might be able to save him?”
“What my dad means is, are there any doctors who can save Tate without amputating his legs?” Minerva
added.
The doctor frowned. “I know of two people who might be able to help. Dr. York is one of them, but he’s
usually at Wayne Group, so he’s never on duty at the hospital. The other person is Mr. Harrison from
Carlson Group! If you guys are looking for someone to help Tate, I’d suggest you guys to go to Mr.
Harrison.”
Once the doctor finished his sentence, all of Tate’s family members exchanged dumbfounded gazes.
They didn’t know who Dr. York was, but they knew who Mr. Harrison was. In the past, they had an
extremely unpleasant fight with the Harrisons. Mr. Harrison despised Tate the most among all of them.
Would he offer a helping hand in such a situation?
“Wh-Why don’t we… We could ask Dr. York…” Chloe muttered in an unsteady tone. Jonah nodded. He
knew that Mr. Harrison would never agree, so they had no choice but to ask for Dr. York’s help.
“Doctor, could you give us Dr. York’s contact number?” Jonah uttered in a quiet voice.
The doctor shot him a glare. “Are you crazy? Why would I have Dr. York’s contact number? Do you think
I’m on par with someone as great as him?”
