The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 99

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 99

Chapter 99 

“It’s not as bad as you’re making it out to be. When the Mosley 

Group went bankrupt, I poached all the talented long–time 

employees. They have good positions now in companies under 

the Livingston Group.” 

He thought for a moment, then continued, “As for your dad, I 

suggested he put a new team together back then, but he felt he 

was too old and didn’t want to fight anymore.” 

Madeleine froze, turning her head to stare at Roderick. 

“Why didn’t you ever tell me this?” 

“You never asked.” 

Roderick raised an eyebrow, only realizing his mistake when he 

saw the gratitude and admiration in Madeleine’s eyes. 

He should have told her sooner! What was all that effort for? 

On the way, Roderick told her more about what happened after 

the Mosley Group went bankrupt. 

Harold Mosley had taken a huge hit back then, partly because 

Chapter 99 

his life’s work was destroyed, and partly because his daughter’s. 

transformation was unbelievable to him. 

Roderick was the one who stayed by the old couple’s side 

during that time, and he also bought back the remaining 

production lines at a high price after the company was 

liquidated. 

Even though the company was gone, the core technology 

wasn’t lost. 

This was also why Harold and Clarissa always felt they had let 

the Livingston family down. 

Madeleine listened in a daze, her mind flashing back to the first 

time she saw her parents after losing her memory, and the 

things they said. 

No wonder they always said she had let Roderick down. 

No wonder… they didn’t want her to hurt him again. 

Madeleine’s nose tingled, and she lowered her head, picking at 

her fingers. Roderick knew this was a habit she’d had since she 

was a child. 

He didn’t say anything, just reached out and held Madeleine’s

small hand. 

“Let’s not talk about this. At least everything is heading in the 

right direction now, isn’t it?” 

Madeleine nodded sullenly and spoke in a muffled voice, “I 

know. I still haven’t figured out what happened, haven’t made 

up for my mistakes, or gotten my revenge. I won’t be defeated.” 

After she spoke, she paused for a moment, her voice tinged 

with tears. 

“I just don’t know what’s wrong with me.” 

What Madeleine really wanted to say was that she didn’t know 

how to thank Roderick. 

To thank him for staying by her side, believing in her, and giving 

everything for her and her family during the time she was least 

like herself. 

But she couldn’t say it. 

She didn’t even dare to look at Roderick right now. 

She was afraid that if their eyes met, her tears would start to 

fall uncontrollably.

Roderick didn’t say anything more. He guided her head to rest 

on his shoulder and thought for a moment about how to cheer 

her up. 

“How about we go change in a bit, and I’ll take you out for 

something good to eat? 

That Spicy Numbing Hot Pot place we always went to as kids is 

still open.” 

Madeleine sniffled. “That’s so high in calories.” 

Roderick: “I’ll work out with you tomorrow after we eat.” 

Working out… 

Madeleine thought of that steamy scene in the gym the other 

day, and her ears grew hot again. One moment she was crying, 

the next she was laughing. 

Madeleine hadn’t eaten much at the dinner party, and after 

going home to change, she was actually hungry. 

“Is it okay for us to just leave the kids at home like this?” 

Roderick thought for a moment. “When we were kids, our 

parents wouldn’t let us eat it. Now that we’re parents, we 

Chapter 99 

should learn a thing or two from them.” 

The Spicy Numbing Hot Pot place Roderick mentioned was one 

they had been eating at for years as kids. Back then, it was just 

a no–frills local diner, and both sets of parents never let them 

go, worried it was unsanitary. 

Going for Spicy Numbing Hot Pot was one of the rare times Madeleine and Roderick worked together seamlessly. 

“You’re not allowed to tell my parents!” 

“You’re not allowed to tell my dad either!” 

“Fine, pinky swear!” 

“A pinky swear isn’t enough. What if you go back on your word? 

Your parents don’t hit you as hard as my dad hits me.” 

“Then what do you suggest?” 

“Let’s write up a contract. We’ll both sign it.” 

Madeleine couldn’t help but laugh thinking about that childhood 

conversation, and she asked casually, “Do you still have that 

contract from back then? 

That’s hilarious.”

“Yeah, I still have it.” 

“Huh?” 

Madeleine froze for a second. Seeing that he didn’t look like he 

was joking, she was left speechless. 

“Ricki, your hoarding habit is acting up again. You’ve been like 

this since you were a kid, can’t bear to throw anything away.”
