The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 137

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 137

Bradley’s face fell as he held back a curse. 

“Not getting in? 

Then we’re leaving.” 

Before the car started, Mathew twisted the knife by saying 

goodbye to Bradley. 

Watching Mathew drive away coolly, Bradley was fuming. 

“What is with this family!” 

He irritably pulled out his phone to call a cab. Just as a driver 

accepted the ride, Kirsten walked over with a smile and said: 

“Dr. Kline, please wait a moment. Sir has arranged a car for you. 

The driver is in the garage right now and will be here shortly.” 

Bradley was silent for two seconds, then canceled the ride he 

had just booked without a word. 

When it comes to messing with people, if Roderick was second, 

no one would dare claim first. 

Chapter 137 

Going to the Livingston manor again, Madeleine was visibly 

nervous. 

Roderick noticed from the rearview mirror and comforted her, 

“Don’t be so nervous. If my dad says something you don’t like, 

just ignore it. We’ll just have a meal and come back.” 

If the old man hadn’t complained on the phone about them not 

eating at home last time, Roderick wouldn’t have even bothered 

to bring his wife and child today. 

“He’s an elder, after all. How can I not listen? Besides… there’s a 

reason your father doesn’t like me.” 

Based on the things she did in the past, who could possibly like 

her? 

Roderick glanced back at her. 

Seeing Kevin looking worried beside her, Roderick didn’t say any 

more. 

Anyway, he just had to protect her with all his heart. No one 

could hurt her. 

Chapter 137 

When they arrived at the family estate, Mathew helped carry in 

the gifts they had prepared for the two of them. 

Most of it was for Mrs. Miller; she was pregnant and needed 

lots of traditional health supplements and everyday items, 

which Madeleine and Kirsten had spent hours carefully picking 

out one by one. 

Madeleine was a little nervous, wondering if Mrs. Miller would 

like them. 

She had been so carefree growing up that she never used to 

care what other people thought of her. 

But this was Roderick’s family, and her family too, so how could 

she not care? 

From the moment they walked in, Roderick held her hand 

tightly, and the warmth from his large palm eased some of 

Madeleine’s anxiety. 

In the small courtyard, Owen had already set out the traditional 

tea set, looking like he’d been eagerly waiting for a long time. 

But when he saw Roderick and the others come in, he 

deliberately sat at the table, putting on a calm front. 

Chapter 137 

“Dad.” 

“Dad.” 

“Hello, Grandpa.” 

The three of them greeted him one by one, and Owen’s tense 

expression finally softened. 

Even so, he only paid attention to Kevin. 

“Kevin, come over to Grandpa.” 

Kevin was very well–behaved, trotting over and throwing himself 

into his grandpa’s arms. 

Like a magician, Owen pulled out a bottle of juice and handed it 

to Kevin. “Look, Grandpa just squeezed this for you himself.” 

“Thank you, Grandpa.” 

Kevin held it with both hands, then turned to glance at 

Madeleine, looking like he wanted to say something but 

hesitated. 

Owen’s smile faded a bit, and with a sigh of resignation, he 

pulled out another bottle from behind him. 

Chapter 137 

With that, the hesitation on Kevin’s face instantly broke into a 

smile, and he happily took the bottle and gave it to Madeleine. 

“Mommy, drink some juice.” 

“Thank you, Maddie.” 

Madeleine smiled, then glanced timidly at Owen. “Thank you, 

Dad.” 

“Ahem… You’re welcome.” 

Owen didn’t meet Madeleine’s eyes, and a thick sense of 

awkwardness hung in the air between them. 

Actually, Madeleine could understand that. 

After all, back when Roderick’s father was still just Owen to her, 

they had a great relationship. 

Back then, Owen had joked about Madeleine becoming his 

daughter–in–law, or if not, his goddaughter. 

If she hadn’t gotten her heart broken later, things between her 

and Owen wouldn’t have become so awkward. 

Madeleine couldn’t help but sigh inwardly again. 

Chapter 137 

Roderick, beside her, sensed her mood and was about to 

comfort her. 

“I didn’t put sugar in your cup. Roderick told me you’re planning 

on getting back into dancing?” 

Owen was busy making tea and didn’t even glance at Madeleine as he spoke. 

His tone was stiff, but you could hear a hint of concern. 

Especially since he remembered Madeleine needed to watch 

her figure for dancing and had specifically left out the sugar. 

Madeleine’s heart warmed, and a smile spread across her face. 

“Yeah, I’ve been practicing when I have free time.” 

“Mm, that’s good.” 

။ 

Owen nodded. “You’ve been dancing for so many years, it 

would be a shame to let it go.” 

It was like a corner of an iceberg had melted; Madeleine felt the 

distance between her and Owen shrink a little.
