Chapter 479

….

Keira, standing nearby, was slightly startled when she heard this.

Why her?

She wasn’t skilled in surgery at all!

Because of her research on medication, she knew a bit about medical science…

As she was thinking, Austin also asked the same question. “Isn’t Nora someone who researches medication? Why can she save my sister?”

The dean said, “Miss Gill is bleeding internally. Currently, we’re gambling our luck and trying to guess where the bleeding point is. Suturing the wound carries a great psychological risk, and everyone’s very nervous! At this point, the only person who could keep her hand absolutely steady is probably Nora.”

After saying this, he explained, “As far as I know, Nora’s hands are incredibly steady. Back when she was abroad, she participated in a surgery where the lead surgeon was too shaky to operate, and it was Nora who stepped in and completed the procedure. Her mindset and state are naturally cut out for surgery!”

Keira didn’t know what to say.

So that was the reason.

Her hands didn’t shake simply because it came from turning screws in Oceanion!

After leaving the Olsen family, she worked several jobs.

She first worked as a courier and eventually grew into creating her own courier company.

As a chef, she ultimately took over her master’s restaurant.

She even cleaned at a horse track and dabbled in the computer industry…

Back then, she desperately needed money and was too young to meet the legal age for temporary work, so she could only work for a couple of hours in different places, essentially getting paid by the hour.

She was paid little for doing lots of work.

She worked harder than others, striving to keep a stable job. She had to perform better than the rest so that her boss would realize her excellence and would continue to secretly employ her, an underage worker.

This led her to be the best she could be in each industry according to her understanding at the time.

Even in the unskilled job of turning screws, she earned the title of “Senior Fitter” in the factory!

It was all thanks to her steady hands!

So, upon hearing this, she immediately stood up. “My hands are very steady. I’ll do it.”

At her words, several people turned to look at her.

The dean instantly frowned. “Well…”

Lady Gill stared at her.

Austin immediately said, “Keira, don’t mess around! That’s my sister!”

Keira ignored him and walked straight to the dean, “My hands are very steady, and I’ve been involved in several surgeries. Just tell me what to do, I can handle it.”

The dean sized her up and after a long pause finally said, “Young lady, what you think of as steady hands is actually different from what we in the medical field define as steady hands. That…”

Before he could finish, Keira walked straight to the operating room door and said, “Stop wasting time, hurry up, isn’t the person about to not make it?”

The dean: ?

Lady Gill frowned. “Miss Olsen…”

Keira looked at her. “Lady Gill, you don’t trust me?”

Lady Gill bit her lip.

After a moment, she turned to the dean and issued a direct command. “Let her have a try!”

The dean was dumbfounded. “Lady Gill…”

Lady Gill turned back to Austin. “Contact Nora immediately and see if she has time to perform surgery on your sister!”

Austin replied, “Yes!”

Seeing that she had said nothing further, the dean then proceeded to lead Keira into the operating room.

As they entered, the dean couldn’t help but whisper to Keira. “Miss Olsen, isn’t it? Volunteering at this time is unwise! Normally, people’s hands don’t shake, but seeing a bloody scene and performing micro-operations is an extreme test! Many veteran surgeons can’t do it. You can still back out now…”

Keira had no intention of wasting words with him and went straight to the sterilization room and changing area, having a nurse help her change into the scrubs.

She then walked to the operating table and looked at the lead surgeon.

The lead surgeon’s face was covered in sweat; he was extraordinarily tense.

The data showing on various instruments indicated that Nara’s condition was far from stable. Any further delay would certainly result in her death!

At that moment, a delicate, slender hand reached over, taking over the surgical procedure, followed by a woman’s calm voice. “What needs to be done? You direct, I’ll do it.”

…

Outside the operating room.

Lady Gill and Austin were pacing back and forth.

Austin couldn’t help but look in the direction of the operating room and complained softly, “Mom, how could you let Keira mess around like this? How could she possibly save my sister?! If something happens to my sister…”

Lady Gill was frustrated and also felt some apprehension for not having stopped the action earlier.

She didn’t know what had come over her, but after meeting Keira’s gaze, she had impulsively felt that Keira could do it!

Now she was extremely anxious…

Lady Gill turned to Matias. “Do you know if Miss Olsen is skilled in medicine?”

Matias, who had been staring blankly at the operating room, heard this and tightened his jaw. He shook his head but then added, “I believe she must have her reasons for doing this! Keira never acts out of line!”

Austin couldn’t help but curse angrily, “You believe? What good is your belief?! Why didn’t you say something earlier!”

He then looked anxiously at Lady Gill, “Mom, what is she doing? If my sister dies because she’s not treated properly, I won’t let Keira off!”

“Shut up!”

Lady Gill scolded, “Didn’t you hear what the doctor said? Your sister is in a life-or-death situation, they can’t handle it at all! Even if something really happens…it has nothing to do with Miss Olsen! Don’t you dare escalate the feud between the Gill family and the Olsen family!”

Austin, furious, paced back and forth, looking toward the operating room again. He suddenly kicked the wall. “She must have done it on purpose. She’s murdering my sister to deprive me of the chance to be forgiven by my sister!”

As he said this, he slowly squatted down.

Then he covered his head. “She knows Nara is my sister, so she’s deliberately doing this to me, just to make me feel guilty and to make sure that I won’t forgive myself! Keira is such a terrifying woman, how could she be so ruthless?!”

Lady Gill looked at Austin, knowing he had entered a dead end.

She didn’t speak any more.

Matias also swallowed nervously; at the moment of life and death for his sister, he was too distressed to bother explaining Keira’s character to Austin…

All three were nervously staring at the operating room.

Time passed, and finally, the doors of the operating room opened, and they tensed up immediately.
