At that moment, the door burst open as Aziel strode in, a look of urgency etched upon his features.

“Ariana, Mr. Anderson's operation has been completed."

With Aziel's words ringing in her ears, Ariana felt her heart race with a mix of nervousness and hope. She quickly slipped her feet into her shoes and raced out of the ward.

As she approached the resuscitation room, she saw the doctor searching for the patient's family.

Ariana rushed over, her heart pounding with fear.

“Doctor,” she breathed, desperation evident in her voice, “I am the family of the patient. How is Theodore now?"

The doctor handed Ariana the medical report, his tone heavy with concern, "The patient has come through the critical period and is now out of harm's way. There are varying levels of injury to the chest, a minor fracture of the ribs, and an intracranial concussion. During this time, it's crucial that he gets plenty of rest."

The doctor paused, his eyes scanning the paper before him.

“However, the injuries to his legs are the most severe. His legs were subjected to a great deal of force.”

Ariana felt her heart drop as she interjected the doctor, “His legs were previously damaged in a car crash and he became disabled. However, a previous doctor had mentioned he still held hope for recovery. Will the prognosis be worse now?"

The doctor trailed off, his confusion deepening as he looked at Ariana's face, filled with despair. He flipped through the medical report in his hand once more, only to confirm that the patient, Theodore Anderson, had suffered a fracture at the ankle previously but was not disabled.

Ariana's voice was laced with a sense of desperation as she asked, “Doctor, is he unable to stand again?"

The doctor shook his head, still looking bewildered. He replied, “Ma'am, are you referring to Theodore Anderson? But, his legs..."

“Doctor! Is my boss alright? Is he out of danger?" Horace interrupted their conversation by appearing out of nowhere and standing between Ariana and the doctor.

There was a thick brace around his neck and tears glistening in his eyes. He seemed to be in distress. Two bulky men dressed in sharp black suits followed closely behind him.

Before Ariana could react, Horace ordered the burly men to lift the doctor and drag him into the office to talk.

“Wait! What are you doing?" the doctor yelped in surprise. He was so flustered that the medical report dropped from his hand and fluttered to the floor.

With great difficulty, Horace bent down and picked up the fallen medical report. He placed it back into the doctor's hand and said earnestly, "I need to talk to you about my boss's previous physical condition. It can help you in treating him later."

Confused, Ariana made a move to follow them, but was abruptly stopped by Horace.

“Boss is awake. You should go and check on him, ma'am."
