Chapter 759
Time went by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was the day of Austin’s surgery.
Grace looked at Austin lying on the operating bed. She held Austin’s hand tightly and kissed it again and again. “Baby, Mommy will wait for you here. In a few days, we can go home.”
Austin’s dark eyes were suddenly filled with tears. It was unknown if it was because she was afraid or something else.
Brian was on the other side of the bed. He kissed Austin’s cheek gently and encouraged her to be strong.
After Brian’s guidance these days, his words seemed to be more useful to Austin.
Austin blinked and tried her best to hold back her tears.
The door of the operating theater slowly closed. Brian made a cheering gesture to Austin.
Grace stood outside the operating theater worriedly. She couldn’t sit still.
Brian stepped forward and wrapped his arms around her body. His deep voice seemed to be able to calm people down. “The surgery will succeed.”
Grace’s heart couldn’t calm down. She felt a little helpless and hugged Brian tightly. She didn’t say a word, but her hands kept exerting strength.
Brian patted her back again and again.
Justin stood not far away. He looked at the two figures hugging outside the operating theater and pursed his lips.
The surgery was very long. Four hours went by. Grace felt as if she had waited for a century.
The door finally opened and a nurse pushed Austin out.
Grace charged forward. “Austin.”
Serena took off her mask and smiled at her. “The surgery was a success.”
Grace’s heart finally settled back into its original place. It was as if all her strength had been sucked out of her. Her body went limp and she fell into Brian’s arms.
She held Brian’s hand tightly. “It’s alright… Austin is finally alright…”
“Although this surgery is long, the wound is small. Stay in the hospital for a few days and observe for a few more days. After the examination, if the indicators are normal, you can return home.” en FindNovel
Grace was so excited that tears fell from her eyes. “Thank you.”
Justin stood outside the ward and looked at the family of three inside.
He was like an isolated island. His entire body was enveloped in a lonely aura.
A text message came to his phone, alerting him that the flight was about to take off in two hours.
He looked deeply at Grace. When he saw the smile on her face, the corners of his lips subconsciously curled up.
Then, as if relieved, he turned around and left.
Justin had just hailed a car and was about to get in when a familiar voice suddenly stopped him.
“Justin.” Grace ran toward him. “You’re going back so soon?”
Justin smiled gently at her. He subconsciously raised his hand and was about to touch the top of her head when he stopped in midair.
“What Austin needs more is her father. I’m relieved that the surgery was
successful,” said Justin.
Grace had mixed feelings. She felt that she owed Justin too much.
She said, “Justin.”
“Hmm?” Justin’s gentle gaze landed on her face.
“I’m sorry. And thank you.”

Justin stared
Suddenly, he pulled her over and hugged her hard. He whispered in, her ear, wait for you guys to come back to the country. Don’t worry about Sharon. I’ll try my best not to let her cause trouble.”
With that, he let go and turned to get into the car.
Grace watched the taxi drive away until it disappeared from her sight. Then, she
slowly turned around and returned to the ward.
