Semua Bab Who's the Substitute Now?: Bab 331 - Bab 340

Natasha continued toward the operating room, paying no mind to Joshua. As she reached for the door handle, someone stopped her."Excuse me, miss. We're in the middle of surgery. You can't enter," Adam Callahan, one of the doctors, informed her.Natasha raised an eyebrow. "Wasn't Dr. Drake done with the surgery already?"Adam looked uncomfortable. His voice was barely above a whisper, "Yes, but Mr. Grayson just ordered Dr. Drake to resume the rescue…"Even though he understood that Philip's situation was hopeless, disobeying Joshua's orders could have serious repercussions.Despite being aware that further attempts to save Philip were futile, reluctantly, Drake went along with it.Natasha could sense Adam's hesitation and raised an eyebrow. "Do you honestly think Dr. Drake can change anything at this point?"Her sharp gaze seemed to cut through Adam's thoughts."It's all Mr. Grayson's call, and we can't go against it. Please, miss, let's not make things difficult," Adam said ner

Joshua shook his head. "You need to leave.""Joshua! Do you even know what you're saying?" Natasha's tone was becoming increasingly urgent.Taking a brief moment to assess Philip's condition, Natasha noted his faint breaths, signifying his precarious state.Joshua, dressed in black and holding the resuscitation equipment, spoke firmly, "I can't let you attempt to save Grandpa."He emphasized, "This is an operating room, not a playground."Only now did he realize the folly of his recent decision.When Natasha mentioned she could create drugs, Joshua naturally placed great trust in her. After all, she served as the assistant to a renowned international pharmaceutical doctor.However, the idea of her attempting to save a life… Joshua couldn't bring himself to buy into it. After all, even the internationally acclaimed doctor he had hired couldn't revive Philip. How could someone like Natasha, whose expertise lay solely in pharmaceuticals, possibly succeed?In the immediate afterm

"Who gave you the authority to mess with Mr. Grayson Senior's medication like that? You could end up killing him!" Drake was furious."You don't know anything about medicine. What are you doing here? Get out!"Joshua's eyes flickered at Drake's anger. He looked at Natasha.Natasha remained unfazed by the accusation. "Just because it's not available in stores, does that mean nobody has it? Can't I make it myself?""You? You made it yourself?" Drake was taken aback. He struggled to comprehend Natasha's reply.Even Joshua couldn't help but give Natasha a second look. He wondered when Natasha became so capable."How is that possible? Are you making things up? Why would you say something so absurd?" Drake scoffed.Who could possibly develop a treatment for such a severe heart condition? If it were true, Drake knew major pharmaceutical companies would have jumped on it already.Furthermore, if she had developed this medication, wouldn't she be wealthy by now? Why bother trying to win

"But Josh, you know nothing about medicine, after all. Staying here won't help Natasha at all."Besides, even though we've changed into surgical gowns, we're not doctors, so we shouldn't be here. It goes against medical protocol," Natalie said, convincing in her argument.Joshua nodded in agreement. "Let's get out of here, then."The operation room door opened, and they exited.Natalie leaned in close to Joshua, inadvertently exposing her sweaty neck. She had just hurried over, so her neck was glistening with perspiration.The droplets of sweat clustered on her neck, and she was certain Joshua couldn't miss them.If Joshua could notice the sweat on Natasha's forehead, there was no reason he couldn't notice the sweat on her neck.As expected, Joshua noticed Natalie's neck, which was covered in glistening beads of sweat. It contrasted against her snow-white skin and reflected bright light under the sunlight.He lowered his head and glanced at the white handkerchief in his hand.

After filling the syringe, Natasha injected the medication into Philip's body without a moment of hesitation.Once everything was done, she took a deep breath and set the syringe aside.Now, all she needed to do was quietly await the outcome.Standing in place, she gazed at Philip's pale face, inevitably recalling her days in the Grayson family.Though Philip had shown neither excessive concern nor treated her as a stranger, she had found his attitude rather comfortable and tactful.If it weren't for the incident at the last banquet, Natasha would have been fond of Philip's character.The injected medication took effect almost immediately.Natasha narrowed her eyes as she observed the adjacent ECG, noticing the rhythm beginning to stabilize.Shortly later, the ECG returned to a completely normal trend; Natasha couldn't help but smile softly.She did it. Not only had she saved Philip, but she had also accomplished the fluid resuscitation, a process she had never done before!N
