Chapter 57 Who Is Abigail’s Husband?
Jeremy hurriedly turned around and saw a doctor with gray hair and glasses striding over. It was Charles Weber, the director of the hospital. Behind him followed several doctors and chiefs in white coats.
Jeremy spoke in a panic. “Dr. Weber, why are you here?”
His tone sounded somewhat weak. “Please don’t be angry. It’s just a minor issue.”
Charles‘ gaze grew cold as he scolded, “Shut up. The life of a patient is no small matter. After so many years as a doctor, do you still need me to teach you this?”
Jeremy’s smile froze instantly. He wanted to say more, but Charles ignored him and walked straight to Adela, personally examining her condition with the group of doctors.
Moments later, Charles‘ expression turned increasingly serious. He said to the doctors behind him, “She was with late–stage hemangioma. The blood vessel has ruptured. Get her to the operating room immediately and prepare for surgery.”
“Yes.” The other doctors agreed and immediately pushed Adela’s wheelchair toward the operating room.

Troy and William bowed to Charles, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.
“You don’t need to thank me,” Charles said to them, then respectfully approached Abigail and said, “We failed in our duty. Thankfully, it wasn’t too late. Otherwise, I wouldn’t know how to explain it to your husband.”
“What? Dr. Weber works for Abigail’s husband?” The Yannis family and Felix were all shocked. They thought, “What kind of identity does Abigail’s husband have? Why does the director from Reginald Hospital show him such respect as if he is facing grave danger?”
Not only were others confused, but Abigail also didn’t understand why Charles respected Marcus so much, even seeming a bit afraid of him.
Abigail felt puzzled inside but didn’t show it on her face. She politely asked, “Dr. Weber, it’s great that you could come. I wonder how certain you are with this surgery?”
Charles replied, “The lady’s condition isn’t very good, but I will personally perform the surgery. I will do my utmost to save her.”
Upon hearing this, William and Troy felt relieved instantly.
William’s eyes brimmed with tears as he excitedly said, “Dr. Weber, you are an expert in this field. We believe in you.”
“I will do my best, but…” Charles spoke halfway, his brow

gradually furrowing as if he encountered some difficulty.
William’s heart sank again, thinking, “No matter what request Dr. Weber makes later, I will agree.”
Charles turned to Jeremy and said, “This surgery is too complicated. If I go in alone, the success rate might only be 50%. I need an assistant, Dr. Hansen.”
Realizing what Charles was implying, Jeremy immediately put on a weary posture. He rubbed his shoulders and said weakly, “Dr. Weber, I’m not trying to shirk my responsibility. I just finished a surgery. I am exhausted.”
“I can’t take on that responsibility if something goes wrong.”
Hearing this, Abigail and the Yannis family fell silent.
Just a moment ago, Jeremy had been pressuring Abigail, clearly showing no signs of fatigue.
He was just taking the chance to get his revenge.
William couldn’t bear to see his wife suffer and finally lowered his head, enduring humiliation as he pleaded, “Dr. Hansen, I’m sorry for what I said before. Please help us.”
Jeremy scoffed disdainfully and said irritably, “I can’t help it. My hands are shaking from exhaustion, and if I accidentally…”
William sensed the threat in Jeremy’s words, and his expression changed instantly.

He dared to make threats in the hospital because he relied on his medical skills.
Aside from Charles, no one else at Reginald Hospital could perform this surgery.
Jeremy smugly looked at Abigail and said, “Ms. Winchester, please reconsider Felix’s conditions. If you agree, we’ll be family. Then, I would be willing to wear myself out.”
“I can handle this surgery, so there’s no need to trouble Dr.
Hansen.”
A sudden male voice interrupted Jeremy’s arrogant threats.
Everyone turned to look in the direction of the voice.
The man was handsome, dressed immaculately in a white shirt with a delicate cufflink at the sleeve. He wore silver–framed glasses, and every gesture exuded a mature masculine charm.
Upon seeing the man, Abigail lit up with joy as she rushed over. “You made it here?”
The man smiled dotingly at Abigail, reaching out to ruffle her hair, his gaze fixed on her as he gently said, “With your command, how could I not come?”
After he graduated from high school so many years ago, this was

After seeing the content of her text, he immediately rushed over and happened to overhear Jeremy’s self–important remarks.
Felix watched the intimate gestures between Abigail and the man, feeling an indescribable bitterness in his heart and a hint of anger.
He coldly questioned, “Abigail, who is he?”
Felix thought, “Who is this man out of nowhere?
Why does he seem so familiar with Abigail?
In the three years I’ve been dating Abigail, why did I never know of his existence?
Could he be the foolish guy who married Abigail impulsively?”
Felix felt increasingly bitter, his expression darkening.
Abigail rolled her eyes, not wanting to pay him any attention.
Charles excitedly walked over and looked at the man beside. Abigail. Without hesitation, he shook the man’s hand, his eyes sparkling. “Osborn Richardson! You’re the cardiovascular expert, Dr. Richardson, right?”
“Dr. Richardson?” Jeremy, who hadn’t been paying much attention to Osborn before, suddenly changed his expression, thinking, “This unassuming young man is actually the renowned
