My Stand-In Groom Is A Secret Tycoon (Audrey) novel Chapter 59

Despite his reluctance, Dominic didn't stay to make himself humiliated further.

Norman dared not to be arrogant anymore either and sneaked away.

With the two annoying figures gone, Audrey suddenly felt the air around her freshen up.

Just then, a nurse came to get Peter to pay the medical bills.

After he was led away, only Miles and Audrey were left outside the operating room. They looked at each other in silence.

Audrey had many things she wanted to say to Miles, but she didn't know where to start.

Meanwhile, Miles stared at her with a mix of admiration and envy. Inheriting his father's nature, he was awkward with words and often suffered because of it.

Seeing how Audrey silenced those bad people just now, he genuinely admired her. The way she stood up to them reminded him of how his mother would rebuke nosy relatives. 'If only I could be that fierce, my mother wouldn't be bullied,' he murmured inwardly.

Noticing his gaze, Audrey turned to him.

Miles immediately averted his gaze, speaking softly but sincerely. "Thank you for today."

"Don't worry about it," Audrey lowered her eyes slightly, probing subtly. "Are you the only child in your family?"

"I have an elder brother and... an elder sister."

"Then why didn't I seem them in the hospital?"

"My brother has mobility issues, and my sister..." Miles paused for a moment, a flash of hatred in his eyes as he said gravely, "I'd rather she wasn't in our family at all!"

Audrey's expression grew slightly serious. 'So he really hates his sister? In that case, it might be better for me to hold off on revealing my identity for now,' she thought to herself.

During the four-hour surgery, Audrey waited outside the operating room with the Harpers.

When the green light above lit up, the Harpers stepped forward instantly.

The first person to emerge was Grant. The surgery took too long, and even Grant nearly couldn't hold on, his face slightly pale and his forehead covered in sweat.

"Grant, how is my wife?" Peter asked urgently.

Grant took a breath. Knowing what they were concerned about, he slowly said, "The surgery was successful. The patient will be transferred to a regular ward for observation for two days. Once her condition stabilizes, she can be discharged."

Upon hearing this, Peter and Miles both felt relieved, bowing deeply in gratitude to Grant.

Grant gently supported Peter's arm, saying softly, "You don't need to thank me. You should thank Mr. Apple. Without him, this surgery wouldn't have been possible."
