The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 147

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 147

The four secretaries nodded in unison, their expressions as 

tragic as if they were heading off to war. 

Yvonne’s eyes were a little red. “Chase, we’re not afraid of being 

laid off! 

But if the company really can’t make it, could you… leave us a 

copy of the cafeteria lady’s chili sauce recipe?” 

Sophia clenched her fist. “Yeah! 

And the cactus next to the printer, I’ve worked with it for two 

years. I’ve grown attached to it!” 

Teresa was even more dramatic, pulling a stack of documents 

from her bag: “Ma’am, this is the ‘Proposal for the 

Transformation of the Secretarial Department After Corporate 

Bankruptcy and Restructuring‘ that I wrote overnight. Why don’t 

you show it to the president…” 

Madeleine rubbed her forehead, almost laughing out loud. 

“The company isn’t going bankrupt. I invited you all to dinner to 

thank you for taking care of me during this time.” 

Chapter 147 

As Madeleine spoke, her eyes were sincere and earnest. 

“If it weren’t for you all, I wouldn’t have gotten up to speed with 

the company’s business so quickly.” 

“But the news outside…” 

“Have a little faith in my husband, will you?” 

Madeleine raised an eyebrow, “You know what he’s capable of.” 

The four secretaries nodded vigorously. 

Having followed Mr. Livingston for so many years, of course 

they knew what their boss was capable of. 

As they were talking, they didn’t notice the soft chime of the bell 

on the door as three exquisitely dressed women walked in. 

The short–haired beauty in the lead glanced over, her expression 

faltering slightly. 

It’s her? 

Fiona’s gaze was unconsciously drawn to Madeleine. She was 

dressed beautifully, looking fresh and refined, not quite like the 

other times she had seen her. 

Chapter 147 

In fact, the image of her in a champagne–colored mermaid 

dress at the last gala was still vivid in her mind. 

Back then, Edward had ditched her for nearly twenty minutes to 

go see her. 

The two women with Fiona also noticed the group over there. 

One of them had an exaggerated look on her face. 

“Isn’t that the woman who’s always trying to steal Mr. Carroll? 

Did she know we were coming to eat here beforehand and did 

this on purpose to piss us off?” 

“Don’t tell me she knew you were coming and thought Mr. 

Carroll would be here too… And dressing like that, it’s obvious 

she’s trying to seduce someone.” 

Fiona withdrew her gaze. 

“Don’t talk nonsense. We decided to come to this restaurant at 

the last minute.” 

After speaking, she glanced at her friend beside her, “Besides, 

who says a woman dressing up nicely is trying to seduce a 

man?” 

Chapter 147 

The woman Fiona shot a look at flinched and nodded 

awkwardly. 

“You’re right, Fiona. I shouldn’t have said that.” 

She then glanced inside the restaurant. There were plenty of 

empty tables. 

“Let’s go over there.” 

Far away. Out of sight, out of mind. 

Fiona ignored her and deliberately walked to the table closest 

to Madeleine to sit down. 

Her movements were elegant and natural, and she was very 

polite to the waiter who pulled out her chair. 

Naturally, Madeleine’s attention was drawn to her. 

She recognized her immediately. It was Fiona, the one who was 

always around Edward. 

Madeleine had been looking into Edward recently, and the 

women around him… you couldn’t even count them on ten 

fingers. 

They were all rumored to be involved with him, but there was 

Chapter 147 

never any proof. 

Lately, this Fiona was the one Edward brought out the most. 

Rumor was their families had a close partnership coming up. 

She looks like a real beauty, too. How could she be so blind… 

After complaining internally, Madeleine couldn’t help but touch 

her nose, feeling a bit guilty. 

Don’t even mention it. When she was under the narrative 

control’s influence, she was even blinder than Fiona. 

Pulling her gaze away, Madeleine went back to chatting with 

her secretaries. They were laughing and talking, and the 

atmosphere was great. 

As she was eating, Madeleine heard the sound of high heels 

approaching. 

Then, she caught a glimpse of Fiona. 

She was holding a glass of red wine, smiling as she walked 

toward her. 

“Madeleine? 

What a coincidence.” 

Chapter 147 

Her red lips curved into a slight smile. “I didn’t expect to run into 

you here. When I first saw you, I thought I was mistaken.” 

Madeleine slowly set down her fork, the silverware making a 

crisp sound against the ceramic plate. 

She looked up, pretending she had just noticed her. 

“Fiona, what a coincidence.” 

“You like this restaurant too?” 

Fiona smiled and looked around. “This restaurant is famous, 

but it’s quite niche. If Edward hadn’t brought me here once, I 

wouldn’t even know about it.” 

Madeleine’s expression remained gentle, but a hint of 

amusement flashed in her eyes. 

“So Mr. Carroll likes it here too?”
