Chapter 767

Under the surgical lights, Vivian Laurent gave a slight nod.

"Dr. Luna?" someone asked cautiously.

"That's me," she replied curtly, her gaze already shifting to the medical report.

On the operating table, the patient's EKG showed faint blips.

"We're changing the approach." Vivian flipped through the charts rapidly. "Conservative treatment won't work. We need to address all issues in one procedure."

The other doctors exchanged uneasy glances.

"The risks are too high—"

"Staged surgeries carry greater risks." Vivian cut them off. "Trust me."

The scalpel traced a perfect arc in her gloved hand.

"Success!"

The surgical team emerged still reeling from the experience.

"That's the real Dr. Luna..."

"Without Dr. Laurent, the patient would've..."

The live chat exploded with comments.

"Zoe Chamberlain dares call herself Luna?"

"Skill speaks louder than titles!"

Ethan Roscente paced at the corridor's end.

Spotting Vivian, he strode forward in three quick steps.

"Another three-hour stand."

"Worth it." Vivian removed her mask, revealing exhausted yet satisfied eyes.

Ethan frowned. "You need rest."

"Still have the simulation surgery."

"What more do you need to prove?"

She rotated her stiff shoulders. "Promises should be kept."

Glancing at her watch, she added, "But I could eat first."
