The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 155

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 155

Over here, Roderick saw the elevator move and got up to walk 

over. 

The elevator doors opened, and Madeleine, with a pained 

expression, practically fell onto Roderick. 

“Quick, quick! 

Help me, my legs are like jelly and my feet are killing me. I can’t 

stand up anymore.” 

Roderick’s expression changed slightly. “What’s wrong?” 

Madeleine: “That girl Minerva has way too much stamina…” 

Roderick didn’t say a word and swept Madeleine into his arms. 

She let out a soft cry, instinctively wrapping her arms around his 

neck, her cheek against his firm chest, where she could clearly 

hear his powerful heartbeat. 

“You haven’t danced in years and you still tried to show off?” 

Roderick scolded her in a low voice, but his steps were 

Chapter 155 

exceptionally steady, afraid of jostling her even the slightest bit. 

Madeleine mumbled in his arms, “I was just trying to set an 

example for my cousin…” 

And I didn’t want to lose face. 

In the bathroom, Roderick adjusted the water temperature with 

one hand, while the other still held her securely. 

The warm steam gradually filled the air, fogging up the mirror. 

He tested the water temperature before carefully setting her 

down on the edge of the bathtub. 

“Can you get undressed by yourself?” 

Roderick’s voice was a little hoarse. 

Madeleine blinked, a playful mood suddenly striking her. “What 

if I say I can’t?” 

As soon as the words left her mouth, she saw Roderick’s 

Adam’s apple bob, his eyes filled with desire. 

Madeleine quickly backed off, chuckling. 

“Just kidding, I can do it myself. You should get out now.” 

Chapter 155 

“Mm.” 

Predictably disappointed, Roderick nodded and left. 

He went downstairs, personally warmed up some milk for 

Madeleine, and when he brought it up, he saw Kevin coming out 

of his room, hugging a small pillow. 

Roderick frowned at him. “Not asleep yet?” 

“Dad.” 

Kevin blinked his big eyes. “I want to sleep with you guys.” 

Roderick walked over, took the pillow from his hands, and said 

seriously, “Mom and I have work stuff to talk about.” 

“I’ll just sleep next to you. I won’t bother you.” 

“No, it’s classified.” 

Kevin was speechless. 

Classified? 

Does he think a four–year–old kid is going to eavesdrop and leak 

secrets? 

Chapter 155 

Kevin pouted but was still persistent. 

“Then when can I sleep with Mom and Dad?” 

“Next time.” 

“When is next time?” 

“I’ll tell you when the time comes.” 

In the span of just a few sentences, Roderick had already 

coaxed the child back into his room. 

Kevin wanted to press for a specific time, but he was pushed 

down onto the bed. 

“Be a good boy and sleep. Your mom is very busy, don’t make 

her worry.” 

The moment his mom was mentioned, Kevin instantly became 

more sensible than anyone, shrinking his neck and nodding. 

“Okay, then.” 

Roderick turned and left, finally letting out a sigh of relief. 

Good thing Madeleine was in the shower. If she had heard the kid say he wanted to sleep with them, she would have definitely

agreed. 

After her bath, Madeleine was so tired she didn’t have an ounce 

of strength left in her body. 

She called out. 

“Roderick, can you come blow–dry my hair? I can’t lift my arms.” 

Hearing her call, Roderick went in with the warm milk. 

Madeleine was sitting at the vanity wrapped in a bathrobe, her 

long, wet hair draped over her shoulders, glowing softly under 

the light. 

She was gently dabbing the ends of her hair with a towel, the 

movement clearly a struggle. 

“Drink this first.” 

Madeleine looked annoyed. “I already told you I can’t lift my 

arms. You feed me.” 

After speaking, she looked at Roderick expectantly, and that 

look alone made his heart itch. 

There was nothing he could do. Who could say no when Chase 

gave an order? Roderick could only sigh helplessly, but his eyes 

Chapter 155 

were filled with a doting smile. 

He walked to Madeleine’s side and gently brought the glass of 

milk to her lips. 

“It’s cooled for a bit, it shouldn’t be hot.” 

He murmured, tilting his wrist at the perfect angle so Madeleine 

could sip it without any trouble. 

When she finished the milk, he took the towel from her and 

gently wiped the ends of her hair. 

He plugged in the hairdryer, tested the temperature, and then 

carefully lifted her long hair. 

The warm air brushed through her hair, his fingers weaving 

through it, his movements so gentle it was as if he were 

handling a rare treasure. 

Madeleine was truly exhausted. She felt like she couldn’t even 

hold her head up anymore, leaning back against Roderick. 

Roderick’s movements were gentle, but he didn’t dare to be 

careless, meticulously drying her hair. 

As he ran his fingers through her hair, he lowered his gaze, his

eyes unconsciously landing on the fair nape of her neck.
