The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 159

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 159

“That’s good. The ‘family harmony brings success‘ belief is true, and good health is the most important thing.“. 

Madeleine didn’t follow them in right away, stopping in her 

tracks. As their voices faded into the distance, she realized she 

was smiling. 

This warm and peaceful family scene made her feel incredibly happy. 

It was clear Roderick knew her parents‘ preferences well. 

The nuts, snacks, and fruits on the living room table were all 

their favorites. 

Madeleine felt a bit ashamed, admitting that even as their daughter, she wasn’t this thoughtful. 

Harold, still thinking about his daughter’s comment about being fat, smiled and offered Madeleine a piece of fruit on a fork. 

“Here, sweetie, have some fruit. You’re not chubby at all.” 

Clarissa chimed in, “You shouldn’t have body anxiety. Being 

Chapter 159 

healthy is what’s most important.” 

As she spoke, Clarissa smiled and glanced between Madeleine 

and Roderick. 

“It seems to me you two have been getting along well lately?” 

“We’re doing great.” 

Madeleine didn’t catch the hidden meaning and wiped her 

mouth with a napkin. 

Clarissa’s smile widened as she nodded. “Good, that’s good. It’s 

about time Kev had a little sister.” 

“Cough… cough, cough, cough.” 

The fruit in her mouth hadn’t been fully swallowed, and 

Madeleine choked, coughing repeatedly. 

Roderick, who hadn’t been sitting next to her, quietly moved 

over, sat down, and silently patted her back to help her catch 

her breath. 

Madeleine’s eyes darted around. 

What was with today? First, it was Kirsten hinting about 

postpartum recovery meals, and now her own mother was 

Chapter 159 

suggesting a little sister. 

Madeleine’s face flushed red. 

Could it be they knew about last night with Roderick… 

Madeleine immediately shook her head at the thought. 

That’s impossible! 

She quickly swallowed the fruit, took a sip of water, and said 

seriously: 

“Mom, don’t be ridiculous. We don’t have any plans for that right 

now.” 

Beside her, Roderick’s expression was a bit complicated. 

She didn’t even ask my opinion… 

How did it become “we“? 

Whatever. As long as my wife is willing to like and love me now, 

that’s enough. What more could I ask for? 

“I’m a career woman now. My work, my career, that’s what’s 

most important to me.” 

Chapter 159 

Nearby, Minerva raised her small hands and clapped excitedly. 

Way to go. She wanted to be a career–driven woman just like 

Madeleine in the future. 

But to Madeleine’s parents, her words just sounded like the kid 

was joking again. 

“A career?” 

Harold asked doubtfully, “Aren’t you just doing odd jobs at the 

company? You call doing odd jobs a career?” 

Madeleine: … 

She suppressed a twitch at the corner of her mouth and looked 

at her father, annoyed. 

“Dad, can’t you have a little more faith in your precious 

daughter? I was a top student my whole life. I can’t just stay 

home and take care of the family now.” 

Roderick didn’t dare to make a sound on the side. 

Taking care of the family… Madeleine? 

He couldn’t even imagine it.

“Then what is it you want to do? Right, I heard from Mina that 

you’ve started dancing again recently.” 

As Clarissa spoke, she started to feel distressed, grabbing 

Madeleine’s hand and patting it. 

“Even though you have foundational skills from childhood, Mom 

is really worried about you. You’ve already had a child, why push 

yourself so hard?” 

From Harold and Clarissa’s perspective, it wasn’t that they 

didn’t trust Madeleine. 

It was just that after the dark times of the past few years, they 

were already very content with this peaceful life. 

In their minds, nothing was more important than Madeleine 

living a healthy, happy, and peaceful life with Roderick and 

Kevin. 

“Oh, Mom~” 

Madeleine wasn’t angry at her parents‘ disapproval, she just 

sighed and said, “Have you forgotten how you used to raise 

me?” 

“You’re the ones who said a girl should have her own 

Chapter 159 

personality and be ambitious.” 

She pouted and shot a sideways glance at Roderick beside her. 

“What if one day ‘someone‘ decides I’m just a good–for–nothing freeloader and kicks me to the curb?” 

After she said that, the atmosphere between them changed for 

some reason. 

The look Harold and Clarissa gave Roderick seemed to turn a 

little colder. 

The mood in the room grew heavy. 

And the “someone” she was hinting at was now staring at 

Madeleine with wide eyes, as if facing a major threat. 

He’d been up since early this morning, organizing a big clean–up 

and preparing his in–laws‘ favorite foods. 

All that effort to impress them, and his wife ruined it all with 

one little lie! 

Roderick was practically jumping out of his skin, scrambling to 

explain. 

“No, that’s impossible, Maddie, don’t say things like that, how 

Chapter 159 

could I… hey, why would you…” 

A perfectly good alpha male CEO, forced into a stuttering mess.
