Chapter 788 As Long As You’re Okay

The operation began ten minutes later.

Adriana remained unconscious throughout the procedure.

Neera reasoned that as long as everything went smoothly, there would be no problems. Things

were different, though, because the patient was her beloved Aunt Adriana.

Not being able to calm her worries, she found it difficult to maintain the composure she had shown

when dealing with other patients.

The operation took a little over two hours, but thankfully, it was a success.

The triplets jumped out of their chairs and rushed to her as she exited the operating room.

Chad, in particular, seemed extremely concerned and hurriedly made his

way

forward.

“Was the surgery a success?” he inquired. “How is Adriana doing?

The triplets were looking at her too. They waited expectantly for an answer from Neera as they gazed at her with teary eyes and expressions of mixed emotions.

Neera took off her mask and breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “Don’t worry, the surgery went well.

Aunt Adriana is fine.”

Chad took a few shaky steps backward, as if he’d lost all his strength, and leaned against the wall for

support.

“Are you okay?” Neera inquired, surprised.

Chad, smiling as though he had just escaped a disaster or located a long–lost treasure, said, I’m fine..

Adriana is in good health. That’s incredible.”

After muttering those words, a mature man like him became visibly emotional, his eyes turning red

and attempting to hold back tears.

Adriana woke up in the afternoon.

When she opened her eyes, she noticed that everyone was staring at her, as if they were waiting for her to regain consciousness.

The triplets‘ eyes twinkled at the same time, and they almost all spoke at the same time.

“Grandaunt, the surgery was a success!”

“I know it! I knew you’d make it! No illness can bring you down!”

“You’re incredible! You’ll be fine soon. And we can all live happily ever after!”

Adriana began to smile as she watched their radiant smiles. “Really?” she asked. That’s fantastic

news.”

She turned to Neera and said, “Neera, thank you for everything.”

“Stop saying this kind of stuff,” Neera said, pretending to be irritated. “I don’t want to hear anything about thanking me. Simply stay healthy. You must stay with me until we are old and gray.”

With a sweet grin on her face, Adriana said, “Alright, I promise.”

“Rest up,” Neera urged. “You just had surgery. I’ve arranged for you to be cared for by a nurse. Let the nurse take care of things when I’m not around.

“OK,” Adriana said softly.

Through it all, Chad never left her side, his eyes never leaving her face.

When she noticed his intense gaze, their eyes locked, and silence seemed to hang in the air

between them.

Neera sensed the intimate moment and knew they had something to say.

She removed the triplets and gave them some space.

The arrangement became clear to the triplets when they saw Ulric waiting for them.

“Aren’t

you coming home with us, Mommy? Do you have to go to work?”

“No, I need to see my master today.” Neera replied, shaking her head.

Her “master” was Obadiah.

“Our research in Kingsview has been put on hold since I returned. I need to notify him and check in on him and his wife.”

The triplets felt sorry for her.

“Mommy, you’ve been working so hard. With so much going on, you have to take care of yourself.”

“You don’t have to worry about us. We’ll behave, we promise,” they assured her.

Harvey, being the eldest, was very responsible. He added, “Don’t worry, Mommy. I’ll take care of my

siblings.”

Moved by their maturity, Neera felt a warmth in her heart, wishing she could love them more.

After letting Ulric take the triplets home, she called Obadiah.

Surprised to hear she was in Essley, he invited her over immediately.

Upon her arrival at the research center, many were thrilled to see her.

“Nancy! You’re back! We missed you!”

“I haven’t seen you in a while; you look even more beautiful than before!”

“Nancy, I’ve been using the skincare product you developed. It’s so good! I feel like you’re getting

more impressive!”

Neera chatted briefly with her colleagues before entering Obadiah’s office.

“Mr. Hanson, I’ve brought you some famous Kingsview tea. I hope you enjoy it,” she said respectfully when she met Obadiah.

“It’s good you’ve returned,” he said, delighted to see her. “Come on over here and take a seat!”

He abandoned the formalities. He opened the tea Neera gave him and brewed some tea for themselves.

“Hmm, this tea smells so good. Not bad!” After taking a sip, he praised the tea satisfactorily.

“Hmm, this tea smells so good. Not bad!” After taking a sip, he praised the tea satisfactorily.

“You didn’t give a heads up when you returned; why did you suddenly come back?” he inquired. “Has anything happened here?”

Neera didn’t hide anything from him. She briefly mentioned Aunt Adriana’s predicament.

When he found out Adriana was sick, he consoled her with a few words.

“You can put the research work on hold for the time being. Don’t be worried; take care of your

family matters; I’m not in a hurry.”

Neera smiled and said, “Thank you for your understanding.”

They talked for a while.

She abruptly changed the subject, asking, “Mr. Hanson, may I ask, has Thora returned?”
