The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 160

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash 160

Madeleine let out a snort of laughter. 

“I was just giving an example, just kidding.” 

Roderick’s expression darkened. “Not even as an example or a 

joke.” 

This was a serious matter. 

She had already promised to spend the rest of her life with him. 

What’s all this talk about kicking her out. 

No, I’ll have to teach her a lesson tonight. She can’t just say things like that. 

Watching the two of them interact so sweetly, Harold and 

Clarissa exchanged a look, both smiling. 

“So, Maddie, when you talk about ‘building a career,’ what 

exactly do you mean?” 

Madeleine adopted a serious expression, cleared her throat, and sat up straight. 

Chapter 160 

“I’m going to start a company!” 

The room was silent for a moment. 

Madeleine studied each of their faces. 

Obviously, no one was taking her seriously. 

“Hey, why are you all looking at me like that? I’m serious!” 

She even took out her phone. 

“Look, I’ve been learning a lot about it lately, taking notes and 

everything. I even signed up for two online courses to get 

certified.” 

Roderick was a bit stunned. 

Madeleine had been really dedicated lately. Whenever she had 

free time, she would ask Roderick and Gerry a lot of questions 

about business and companies. 

At first, Roderick found it strange, thinking she was genuinely 

interested in Gerry’s job as a special assistant. 

He hadn’t expected her ambition to be so much greater than he 

thought. 

Chapter 160 

“Maddie, you’re not really joking, are you?” 

Harold’s eyes widened. “I remember you used to hate business, 

didn’t you? You used to complain when I was running my 

business.” 

“I was young and foolish back then.” 

Madeleine gave an awkward grin. 

It was more than just being foolish; she had single–handedly 

ruined her family’s company. She was practically a walking 

disaster. 

Just as she said that, the sound of a car pulling in came from 

outside. 

Madeleine turned her head to look through the floor–to–ceiling 

window and saw it was Bradley. 

“Why is he here?” 

“I invited him. To play Poker with Mom and Dad.” 

Bradley seemed quite familiar with Madeleine’s parents. He 

greeted them warmly as he walked in, holding gifts he had 

prepared for them. 

Chapter 160 

“You two look younger every time I see you. Tsk, tsk, I really 

hope I can look this good when I’m your age.” 

Bradley, who was usually carefree and flippant around them, 

was like a completely different person in front of the elders. 

Madeleine thought to herself: He’s putting on an act. 

Clarissa smiled. “Keeping a youthful mindset is more important 

than anything. Of course, the most important thing is to have 

someone you love by your side.” 

She linked arms with Harold, continuing to hit Bradley where it 

hurt. 

“Bradley, when are you going to bring a girlfriend over?” 

Bradley showed no embarrassment from his parents nagging 

me to get married, just smiled and replied, “Soon, soon. Don’t 

you worry.” 

“Alright then, we’ll see if we’re attending your wedding reception 

or Rebecca’s first!” 

Madeleine and Roderick exchanged a look, the same helpless 

expression flashing across both their faces. 

Chapter 160 

As expected… whenever the elders were around, parents 

nagging me to get married and the baby talk were eternal 

topics. 

Luckily, Bradley was an old pro at this. He handled it with ease, 

and knowing the old couple had recently taken a liking to Poker, 

he quickly urged them to play a couple of rounds. 

“You know how to play?” 

Madeleine looked at the three of them and quickly asked 

Roderick, afraid the Poker game wouldn’t happen. 

Roderick raised an eyebrow and nodded smugly. “Of course.” 

Ever since he found out his father–in–law and mother–in–law 

enjoyed playing Poker, Roderick had scoured all sorts of 

materials and studied for two days. 

Winning over his in–laws? A piece of cake. 

Madeleine was annoyed. “How come you all know how to play? 

I’ll go play with Kev then.” 

Just as she was about to turn, Roderick pulled her back with 

one arm, a smile on his face. 

Chapter 160 

“Mom and Dad rarely get to visit. Spend more time with them.” 

“But I don’t know how…” 

“I’ll teach you.” 

Kevin, who had been watching them from the side, came 

scampering over. 

“Dad, Mom, I want to go with you.” 

Roderick looked at him and said seriously, “No, kids can’t be 

around that stuff.” 

“Why not?” 

Roderick said with a straight face, “Because playing poker is 

bad for your health.” 

Instantly, Kevin looked like his world was ending. 

After his dad and mom went upstairs to the game room, he just 

stood there, stunned. 

Only a few words echoed in his mind: Bad for your health! 

Just then, the smartwatch on his wrist buzzed. 

Chapter 160 

Kevin looked down and opened it. It was a voice message from 

his grandpa on Facebook.
