Chapter 639: Chapter 639

What was keeping her busy?

Wasn’t she supposed to call him after her grandpa’s surgery and lunch?

What time was it now?

Did she go for a nap?

Remembering how Rosemary had endured such a long flight to Dawnstar and immediately plunged herself into saving lives, Romeo didn’t bother her further. But his mind was filled with thoughts of her.

Rosemary’s focus was unyielding. What was originally a 10-hour operation, she completed in just six hours. The patient’s blood loss during the entire procedure was only about 500 milliliters, and his liver was without blood supply for two hours.

Everyone at the hospital was completely astounded!

In this operation, led by Rosemary, three doctors successfully repaired the arteries, hepatic veins, portal veins, inferior vena cava, and other blood vessels. The liver retention reached 98%, and the liver function was normal.

Not only Dr. Brade and another surgeon were amazed and thrilled, but all the doctors in the observation room also cheered! They were all deeply impressed and benefited greatly from observing such a lengthy operation.

When Rosemary came out of the operating room, the woman rushed up to ask about her father’s condition. Upon hearing that his liver function could be completely preserved and the operation was successful, she broke down in tears and knelt before Rosemary.

Rosemary tried to help her up, but she was crying her eyes out. She was insistent on expressing her gratitude to Rosemary.

The other doctors in the observation room surrounded Rosemary, inquiring about her background, praising her medical skills, and asking about her future plans.

Seeing his niece being surrounded by so many people, Bard couldn’t help but say,

"Would you all mind stepping aside? My niece needs to change her clothes. She’s been operating for such a long time, and she’s tired."

Everyone turned to look at the man standing on the other side of the crowd. He was a formidable figure that no one in the country didn’t recognize.

"Mr. Bard."

"Mr. Bard, she’s your niece?"

"The genes of the Griffith family are really good. Everyone in your family is so outstanding and excellent."

Rosemary nodded at her uncle, who had helped her out of the crowd, and went to the changing room to remove her surgical gown and sterilize herself.

The woman from Dawnstar who had been kneeling on the ground, with the help of others, stood up and looked at Bard in disbelief.

Bard noticed her gaze and looked back, also somewhat surprised.

Janice?

One of the group directors. They often met, but their positions were different. At yesterday’s board meeting, only she and a few other old directors voted against.

Janice asked Bard in disbelief if the woman earlier was his niece. His real niece? She had never heard him mention it before.

Bard told her that she was indeed his niece whom he had recently found. He asked her not to spread the word.

Janice nodded repeatedly, tears streaming down her face again. She told Bard that without Rosemary, her father would have been long gone. She couldn’t believe that this miracle-working doctor was Bard’s own niece. What a coincidence.

Bard gave her a few comforting words. He was surprised to hear that she had information about the inner workings of the company. She promised to email him the details that night.

Bard didn’t expect this unexpected gain. It was all thanks to Rosemary.

Seeing that his beloved niece had come out, Bard told Janice that his niece hadn’t eaten anything since noon and had even performed two surgeries.

Upon hearing this, Janice felt guilty. She thanked Rosemary again and promised to meet Bard that evening.

Rosemary was a bit confused. Did they know each other?

It wasn’t until her uncle introduced Janice that she understood their relationship.

Seeing that the sky outside was already dark, probably around seven or eight o’clock, Bard suggested,

"Let’s go out for dinner, and I’ll show you the night view of Dawnstar."

"Alright."

Rosemary was indeed hungry, but more than that, she was tired. She got into the car and quickly drifted off to sleep.

Seeing her so exhausted, Bard remembered what Sampson had once said about the tough times she had gone through. His heart ached for her.

After an indeterminate amount of time, Rosemary was awakened by Bard’s soft voice. She looked around to find that they had arrived at a beautiful hilltop restaurant overlooking the night sky of Dawnstar.

The restaurant manager personally opened the car door for her. Rosemary responded briefly.

Bard looked at her with a hint of admiration in his eyes,

"I didn’t expect your French to be so good."

It was even better than Serena’s.

When Serena had a whim to learn French, he had hired a top-notch language tutor for her. But surprisingly, her pronunciation wasn’t as good as Rose’s.

Seemed like his niece had many virtues waiting to be discovered.

Rosemary looked at the night view below and suddenly remembered her promise to call Romeo after dinner.

Was he still waiting?

"Uncle Bard, you go in first. I need to make a call."

"Alright." Without asking any more questions, Bard handed the car keys to the parking attendant and went in.

Rosemary took out her mobile phone from her backpack, only to find several missed calls: from her parents, friends, subordinates, and also Romeo.

She called Romeo back first. He picked up almost immediately.

"Are you awake?"

"How did you know I was sleeping?" Rosemary thought he knew about her nap in the car, but she soon realized he was referring to her afternoon nap.

When he found out she hadn’t eaten since noon and had performed two surgeries, Romeo said sympathetically,

"After you eat and get home to rest, I’ll call you."

Eating something was the most important thing now.

Rosemary heard the automated voice in the cabin on his end and immediately guessed what was happening,

"Are you on a plane? Coming to Dawnstar?"

Private planes allow phone calls.

Romeo didn’t expect her to guess so quickly. Fearing she might get angry, he quickly explained,

"I just happen to have some business in Dawnstar."

He was not shirking his responsibilities.

"Oh." Rosemary chuckled with interest. She knew this guy couldn’t resist following her.

"Alright, when you get here, take me around if you have the time."

Romeo couldn’t believe what he was hearing, his eyes lighting up with happiness,

"Alright, I’ll take you around. Go eat first."

"Sure."

After hanging up the call, Rosemary noticed the restaurant manager still waiting for her not far away, his face bearing a respectful and polite smile.

"Ms. Rose, this is the first time I’ve seen Mr. Bard bring a lady to dine here. Mr. Bard is a rare gentleman—handsome, gentle, and loyal."

Rosemary cut him off before he could finish,

"I’m his niece."

The restaurant manager was taken aback for a few seconds before quickly correcting himself,

"He’s also a great uncle! I dare say, he’s the best uncle in the world, bar none."

"Oh, so isn’t Mr. Sampson good?"

Caught off guard, the manager quickly replied,

"No, no, no, Mr. Sampson is also very good."

"Enough. Just show me the way."

"Okay."
