Chapter 1451
The Untouchable Ex-Wife
Two days later, Renee changed into a surgical gown and walked into the sterile surgery room of the manor with Jovan.
âPlease lie down on the operating table.â The eye surgeon instructed the nurses to help them onto the table after a brief check-up and anesthesia testing.
Renee gave her full cooperation throughout the process, staying quiet the whole time. The image of her in the large surgical gown with her long hair wrapped up in a cap made her look like a little lamb off to the slaughter. She laid down on the operating table, the surgical light above her so bright that she couldnât open her eyes. Halos of light swam in her vision, and she felt as if she was stuck in a nightmare.
âDo you regret it?â She heard Jovanâs indifferent voice nearby. âItâs not too late if you do.â
âNo, I donât.â Renee smiled pathetically. âIâll never regret since Iâll be getting so much money.âBooks Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated For All Books Updatesâ¦
âOkay, then. I promise Iâll reward you generously,â Jovan promised firmly.
After the anesthesiologist finished preparing the anesthetic, he said to Renee and Jovan, âIâll inject the anesthetic into your bodies now. Itâs general anesthesia, and youâll lose consciousness. The time itâll take for you to wake up depends on your physical condition, but it should be around three to six hours after the surgery.â
âOkay.â Renee nodded. âIâm ready.â
Jovan inhaled deeply and murmured, âYou may begin.â
Renee felt something sharp poke her back, and the halo of light in her vision started to grow. Finally, everything went black, and she lost consciousness.
Renee didnât know how long she had been out for, but when she woke up, everything had been plunged into darkness. It felt like she had fallen into an endless abyss, and her body trembled as she whispered, âIs⦠Is there anyone there?â
âYouâre awake, Ms. Everheart. How do you feel? Do your eyes hurt? The doctor said that it might take at least a week for your wounds to heal.â It was a young womanâs voice, but it wasnât Eloise.
âWho are you? Where is Eloise?â Renee asked nervously. She realized now how important sight was;
she felt as defenseless and vulnerable as a newborn.
âIâm Lisa. Ms. Pierce asked me to take care of you since sheâs busy taking care of Mr. Jovan now. You can tell me if you need anything,â Lisa said kindly. Lisa was an honest and simple person, and she felt very moved by Reneeâs action of sacrificing her eyes.
âOh, I seeâ¦â
