The Heart Surgeon’s Last Patient Novel Chapter 323

Night Carved Paths Into Silence by Zyrel Ash ` 323

Chapter 323 

Rosalind had already stepped forward, her smile gentle and 

graceful, her tone naturally intimate, as if that.explosive 

conversation just now had never happened: 

“Adrian, you’re back. I just got here a little while ago. I ran into a 

resident downstairs and we came up together. I hope I’m not 

interrupting by dropping in?” 

Adrian didn’t play along with her social pleasantries, his gaze 

locked firmly on Rosalind. 

His tone was dangerously low, “Answer my question. Who told 

you the address? 

What are you doing here?” 

His reaction, the tension in his voice and his unusual coldness, 

along with Rosalind’s sudden change in demeanor, didn’t 

escape Rebecca’s notice. 

She stood where she was, watching the two of them at the 

door, feeling the glass of water she’d just drunk sitting like a 

cold weight in her stomach.

Adrian walked quickly to Rebecca’s side, instinctively reaching 

out to take her arm. 

His voice softened a bit, laced with urgency, “Rebecca, did 

she…” 

But Rebecca subtly sidestepped, avoiding his hand, and just 

looked up at him. 

Her gaze was almost too calm. Beneath the calm was a raging 

undercurrent. 

“Professor Shaw,” she said softly, using his most formal 

professional title, her tone distant. 

“Rosalind said she’s an old friend of yours and has something 

private to discuss with you.” 

She paused, her gaze lingering for a moment on Rosalind’s 

flawless face before returning to Adrian, her eyes holding a 

scrutiny he had never seen before. 

“I’m going to go.” 

“No!” 

Adrian was adamant, reaching out to grab her, but Rebecca’s 

Chapter 323 

eyes quickly darted away. 

Rebecca avoided Adrian’s outstretched hand, the movement 

light but decisive. 

She took a deep breath, and when she looked up again, the 

raging undercurrent in her eyes seemed to have been forcibly 

suppressed, leaving only a weary calm. 

“Adrian.” 

She softened her tone, but her voice carried an even greater 

se of distance. 

“Tonight, I actually had some things I wanted to tell you.” 

Her gaze swept lightly over Rosalind, the elegant woman who seemed detached from it all, watching the scene with great 

interest. 

“But now, it seems, is not the right time.” 

Rebecca’s lips even managed to form a faint curve, as if in self- 

mockery, or perhaps reassurance. 

“You two talk about your business first. I… I’ll go now.” 

“No!” 

Chapter 323 

Adrian’s voice was more urgent, even tinged with a hint of 

imperceptible panic. 

He tried to grab her again, but Rebecca subtly deflected his 

hand. 

“Just a moment, wait for me to handle this…” 

He looked at her, almost pleading. 

But Rebecca shook her head, no longer looking at him. 

Her gaze fell on the entryway cabinet, where Adrian’s car keys 

lay, tossed there when he’d just gotten back. 

She walked over, her slender fingers picking up the cold set of 

keys and closing them in her palm. 

Then, she turned to Adrian, the faint smile on her face 

becoming clearer, yet somehow jarring. 

“I’ll take your car home.” 

Her tone could even be described as light. 

“You can come get it tomorrow when it’s convenient, or I’ll have 

my assistant bring it back to you.”

“Rebecca!” 

Adrian watched her, his heart pounding in panic, even more so 

than when he’d faced Rosalind’s surprise attack. 

He would rather she screamed and questioned him, not calmly 

smile and push him away like this. 

Rebecca gave him no chance to stop her. 

She gripped her keys and put on her shoes, her movements 

fluid and without hesitation. 

Opening the door, she turned to Rosalind with a slight nod, her 

manners impeccable: 

“Miss Vance, take your time.” 

Then, without a backward glance, she walked into the elevator 

lobby. 

The elevator doors slowly closed, blocking out Adrian’s paling face and Rosalind’s deep, triumphant eyes. 

“Rebecca!” 

Adrian rushed to the elevator doors, only to see the numbers on the display counting down. 

Chapter 323 

He whipped around to look at Rosalind in the room, all his 

anxiety and panic instantly turning to cold fury, his gaze sharp 

enough to pierce right through her. 

The elevator descended, the numbers changing constantly. 

Rebecca got into the driver’s seat. The familiar scent in Adrian’s 

car enveloped her, but it made her feel an inexplicable sense of 

suffocation. 

She didn’t start the car right away, just gripped the steering 

wheel, her fingertips cold. 

mposure and distance she had forced upstairs quickly 

Crumbled in the solitary space. 

Rosalind’s words were like poison–tipped needles, stabbing one 

by one into the most insecure parts of her heart. 

Real identity… a plan made by their parents… no deviations 

allowed… 

She closed her eyes and took a deep breath. 

But Rebecca was, after all, Rebecca. 

After the brief confusion and stinging pain, her natural open-

mindedness and “all–in” attitude slowly took over. 

She snapped her eyes open, looking at herself in the rearview 

mirror.
