Medical Center.

VIP ward.

"What's going on?"

Adam asked.

"Mrs. Rusebin just had contractions. To ensure the babies stay a few more days, I've lowered the bed's angle to use gravity to delay their birth."

Liz said quickly.

"Very good."

Adam checked and found that both the adult and child's vital signs were stable, which gave them a positive assessment.

"Leave the rest to me, you go and get some rest."

"I can still hold on."

Liz said, her spirits lifted.

"OK".

Seeing this, Adam didn't say anything more. He went out, got a medical book, and came back to sit on the sofa in the ward and started reading.

"Dr. Duncan, would you like some tea?"

The nurse in charge of the ward brought over a cup of brewed tea.

"Thank you, Rita."

Adam thanked him.

"You're welcome."

Nurse Rita left with a smile.

Liz's initial excitement suddenly cooled, and waves of drowsiness swept over her instantly.

"You can have some tea and keep watch for the rest of the night. I'm going to rest in the duty room. Call me if you need anything."

Liz said sourly.

"OK."

Adam, sipping his tea and reading a book, nodded in agreement.

Liz left dejectedly.

She felt that the world was full of hostility towards her.

From childhood to adulthood, it has always been like this.

After starting her internship at the Medical Center, she tried to become good friends with Meredith, George, Cristina, Adam, and the other doctors and nurses.

Despite her heartfelt sincerity, she always received only indifference.

Even though Meredith lived with her, she only had close friendships with Cristina and never told her anything.

George is good, but he's a man after all, which creates a distance.

The scene of Adam confronting her at the beginning is still vivid in my mind. Even now that things have improved, we are still not close.

Alex, who left, was a jerk, but he seemed to be the person she was closest to.

The other doctors and nurses didn't care about her.

She thought and thought, and could only think of it because her appearance and figure were too outstanding.

Women are envious, jealous, and resentful, and therefore unwilling to get close to them.

Just like before, the nurse completely ignored her.

That's a typical example.

Adam, of course, had no idea of the emptiness and loneliness that Liz felt at the top. He drank tea and read a book, and soon it was the middle of the night.

2:30 a. m.

"Ah!"

Mrs. Rusebin suddenly exclaimed.

"What's wrong?"

Adam immediately put down his book and went over.

"My contractions are very painful."

Mrs. Rusebin said in anguish, "I think my water has broken."

Adam glanced at the monitor, then lifted the blanket and saw a patch of blood.

"Take a deep breath."

Adam comforted Mrs. Rusebin while calling for a nurse.

"Contact Dr. Montgomery."

"Call Dr. Stevens."

"Notify the Operating Room to prepare Operating Room number 1."

"Take the list of backup personnel posted at the nurses' station and call everyone."

"..."

Adam issued a series of instructions.

"Ah! What happened?"

Mrs. Rusebin exclaimed.

"Your placenta has ruptured, you can't wait any longer, you need to start giving birth tonight."

Adam reassured him, "But don't worry, everything will be fine. Relax and take a deep breath."

"Tom!"

Mrs. Rusebin exclaimed.

"I know, I've already asked the nurse to call Mr. Russebin."

Adam's hand was held tightly in hers as she reassured him, "He's on his way and will definitely be able to accompany you into the Operating Room."

"Boys!"

Mrs. Rusebin cried out in anguish.

"Don't worry, Mr. Russebin has made all the arrangements."

Adam let her ravage his hands.

If it were Liz or the others, they probably wouldn't have been able to withstand that kind of force. Some of the more willful and pain-sensitive ones might have just grabbed a needle and stuck it into Mrs. Rusebin's body.

"What happened?"

Liz ran over, her clothes disheveled.

"Go and call all the backup personnel."

Adam quickly explained the situation and then gave the instructions.

This surgery was not just a cesarean section, but also three surgeries for three fetuses.

The operation requires four surgical teams (chief surgeon, assistants, and nurses) and two nursing teams.

There are easily more than twenty people.

How can this work without a specific personnel allocation list?

Didi.

Didi.

As pagers rang everywhere, whether one was sound asleep at home or clapping, everyone had to rush to the hospital immediately.

The supervising Dr. Montgomery, also rushed over from home immediately.

Adam's judgment was certainly correct.

So she praised him, and after knowing that all the backup personnel had arrived, she immediately began to change into her surgical gown and prepare to perform the surgery.

Operating Room No. 1.

A group of doctors and nurses formed a team and surrounded the operating table in the center.

There.

Mrs. Rusebin, under local anesthesia, looks at her husband.

After the drape was removed, Dr. Montgomery performed the cesarean section, with Liz assisting.

Adam stood beside Dr. Burke, awaiting the birth of Emily, number 2.

Meredith stood next to Dr. Shepherd, her face covered by a mask, obscuring her expression, but her eyes revealed a great deal.

She originally had no hope of being able to participate in this major celebrity surgery.

She and Dr. Montgomery nearly broke off their relationship over the fight for Dr. Shepherd.

Joining will enrich your resume.

She didn't believe that Dr. Montgomery, her supervisor, would give her such a good opportunity.

But she underestimated Dr. Montgomery's magnanimity.

But this also made her feel a bit uninterested in the benefits of participating in the surgery.

She would rather Dr. Montgomery hadn't let her participate.

That way, at least she would know that she posed a threat to Dr. Montgomery.

Being ignored is definitely the most painful thing.

One by one, the babies were carried out by Dr. Montgomery and gently handed to Liz then handed them over to the corresponding personnel, placed them in incubators, and wheeled out of the Operating Room.

It's Emily's turn, number 2.

Adam stepped forward, took the dirty, ugly, and pitiful baby, placed him in the incubator, listened to him with a stethoscope, and nodded to Dr. Burke.

Dr. Burke nodded as well.

"Go to Operating Room 2."

Adam and the others pushed the incubator away, watched by Mrs. Rusebin with tears in her eyes.

Operating Room 2.

"No matter what the books say, I guarantee you've never seen such a small heart."

"Dr. Burke and Adam said during the cleaning and disinfection process."

"Um."

Adam smiled and nodded.

They were extremely polite.

However, there is little sense of identification with them.

Dr. Burke was taken aback, then shook his head helplessly.

He then realized that most people indeed couldn't match the cold, hard numbers and images in the book with real little hearts.

But the one in front of me can.

After cleaning and disinfection.

With the help of the nurse, the two got dressed.

"Duncan, you'll be the surgeon."

As expected, Dr. Burke gave up his position as the chief surgeon and chose to become a mentor and first assistant.

"Dr. Burke."

Adam skillfully took his place as the surgeon.

"Scalpel".

Adam reached out, the nurse deftly placed the scalpel in his hand.

Damn!

When Adam cut open the baby's left ventricle, Adam eyes narrowed, he cursed under his breath, and looked up at Dr. Burke.

Dr. Burke had obviously seen it too, and shook his head with a sigh.

No matter how well Adam prepared, it was all in vain.

Divine power cannot contend with fate.
