Chapter 113 The Patient With Heart Disease

Mendes' eyes suddenly lit up. He put the iPad aside, leaned forward towards Rachel's ear and whispered, "Rachel, I want to tell you something. I saw Lucas kiss a girl."

The smile on Rachel's face suddenly faded away. She was stunned with what she heard and then turned to Mendes. "Did you see who it was that he kissed?"

"A beautiful girl."

Mendes rolled his fingers as he tried to describe the girl with his hands. "She has such big lovely eyes! She is fair-skinned, and they kissed each other on the corridor! And then she hugged him tightly!"

Rachel's face became a little blushed, and she quickly reached out and covered his lips. "Okay, I understand now. But, you can't tell anyone else about this, okay?"

"Why?" Mendes asked in an almost muffled voice since she had her hand on his lips.

Rachel didn't know how to explain it to a kid, but she felt annoyed by Lucas' thoughtlessness. 'How could he do it in front of a kid?' she thought.

"If someone else finds out, they will laugh at Lucas. It needs to be kept a secret. So, don't tell anyone else, understand?"

Mendes nodded. "It's our secret?"

"Yes, you're right."

"Okay!" He suddenly clenched his fist and looked excited all of a sudden. "Our secret! And no one else can be told."

The excitement in Mendes' face made Rachel feel a little awkward.

The boy was so excited as if he had found something extremely valuable.

'So, Lucas has a girlfriend?' Rachel wondered to herself.

Mendes suddenly leaned to her as she thought about it some more. "Will you kiss someone too?"

Rachel felt a rush of blood to her ears and chee

ime before he spoke again.

"Where is she, anyway?

And is it okay with her if you play and make a mess there?"

he asked in a playful tone of voice. Mendes scratched his head.

"She is out working now," he replied back to Jack.

Meanwhile, back at the operating room. Everybody was relieved after the suturing. The patient's situation was temporarily stable.

A nurse raised a clean cloth immediately and wiped off the sweat on Kevin's forehead. She then turned to look at Rachel and checked if her forehead was sweaty as well.

But to her surprise, Rachel's forehead was completely clear. There was no sweat there at all. Everyone was so tense and nervous in the operating room that nobody dared to even breathe. But not Rachel, she looked like she had everything under control.

Not only Kevin's forehead but also his back was already sweaty. Everyone was so busy with what they were doing that no one noticed the look in Rachel's eyes. The nurse glanced at Rachel's eyes and noticed that it was calm an uncomplicated unlike Kevin's.

Rachel bent slightly forward and focused on cleaning the wound of the patient. Her young eyes were expressive and reflected her confidence.

"The patient needs to be brought to the ICU to be observed for the next twelve hours. We can't take any chances, we almost lost her there," Rachel said in a serious tone.

Kevin felt completely exhausted. He panted as if he had just fought a fierce battle.

He had never encountered such a dangerous situation. He had less experience than Rachel when it came to dangerous situations and it easily made him feel anxious.
