The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 189

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash `189

Was I seeing things? 

“Get in. It’s fine to sit in the passenger seat.” 

Rebecca smiled and nodded. After getting in and buckling her 

seatbelt, she turned her head and noticed Adrian was staring at 

her. 

“What’s wrong, Professor Shaw? Is… something wrong with 

me?” 

“You look… very different today, too.” 

Rebecca heard him, her smile looking a little forced. 

Of course! 

He should think about what kind of event this is. It might be a 

medical seminar, but the organizers specifically said they 

invited a lot of guests from other industries. 

She, Rebecca, was at least somewhat well–known in the 

financial world; she could easily be recognized, you know… 

Chapter 189 

So, before she left the house, Rebecca picked out an outfit that 

was the complete opposite of her usual style. 

As low–key as it gets. 

Adrian looked away and said nothing, simply starting the car 

and heading toward the venue. 

The venue was packed with influential figures and big shots. 

Madeleine followed by Roderick’s side, thinking she was just 

there to watch, but he started pulling her around to meet people 

as soon as they walked in. 

“This is Ethan Allen from Spark Capital. Mr. Allen, hello. This is 

my wife, Madeleine. She’s starting her own business recently, 

please look out for her in the future.” 

“Mr. Sampson, I heard your nephew is taking on office 

renovation projects recently? 

Yes, my wife is setting up a company, so we’ll contact you if we 

need anything.” 

“Linda Gill…” 

Chapter 189 

From the moment they entered, Roderick introduced his 

connections to Madeleine one by one, putting in a good word 

for her both directly and indirectly. 

Having been in the financial world for so many years, Roderick 

knew that introducing his connections so bluntly wasn’t exactly 

a good thing. 

Using up favors is, in essence, a kind of expense. 

But she was the one he loved, so all the favors and expenses 

were worth it. 

After a round of socializing, Madeleine’s face was stiff from 

smiling, and her mouth was dry from talking. 

When there was finally a break from people, she poked 

Roderick in the waist. 

“So you had another reason for bringing me here.” 

Roderick chuckled, “My wife is building her career, I have to 

support her.” 

“Your way of supporting is pretty special, huh?” 

Madeleine said with a grin, “But I like it.” 

Chapter 189 

Truly loving someone isn’t about giving them unconditional 

help, but about lifting them up. 

It’s about putting her in a comfortable position to work hard 

from, bringing her a little closer to success. 

Not long after the two sat down, the seminar began. 

Most of it was obscure technical knowledge that Madeleine 

didn’t understand, so she couldn’t help but let her mind wander. 

Finally, the host announced that they were inviting Adrian to 

speak. 

Madeleine immediately perked up, straightening her back and 

staring at the stage. 

Adrian walked slowly onto the stage, his suit giving off an aura 

of calm and reserved confidence. 

He stood tall and straight like a pine tree, his black suit was 

well–tailored, making his shoulders look even broader. 

His tie was knotted impeccably, its dark, subtle pattern faintly 

visible under the lights, exuding a low–key nobility. 

Looking at his face, his features were sharp: brows like blades, 

Chapter 189 

a high–bridged nose, and a clean, sharp jawline. 

Behind his glasses, his eyes were deep and sharp, as if they 

could see right through a person. 

His thin lips were slightly pursed, giving him a’somewhat 

distant air when he wasn’t smiling, yet it was strangely eye- 

catching. 

“He’s so handsome…” 

Madeleine couldn’t help but sigh. This was a world away from 

the old fossil she had imagined. 

Beside her, Roderick heard her sigh and couldn’t help but frown, 

pinching Madeleine’s fingertips with a hint of jealousy. 

She understood and smiled, leaning close to Roderick’s ear to 

coax him softly, “Not as handsome as you.” 

Only then did Roderick’s brow slowly smooth out. 

After stopping, Adrian adjusted the microphone height with one hand, his long, strong fingers with their distinct knuckles. 

When he spoke, his voice was deep and clear, with a cool, 

metallic quality to it: “Colleagues, it’s an honor to be here today 

Chapter 189 

to share my views…” 

Adrian’s voice was very steady. Probably knowing that not 

everyone in the audience was an expert, he finished the 

technical part with a few brief words and began to analyze the research project’s goals and returns from a business 

perspective. 

Roderick listened very attentively, occasionally leaning over to 

explain the technical terms Adrian mentioned and their 

meanings to Madeleine. 

Madeleine found it strange. 

“Isn’t Professor Shaw a researcher?” 

Roderick chuckled, “He has connections.” 

“Oh…” 

Madeleine’s eyes widened, “No wonder he turned down 

Rebecca’s family’s invitation.” 

Turns out he wasn’t short on money at all. 

“Does Rebecca know about this?”
