That night, Ste slept soundly at Wave Residence, but the folks at the hospital weren''t so lucky; they spent the night tossing and turning. Urs was suffering terribly.


    Early the next morning, a cardiologist sought out Cloudia, "Mrs. Larkin, there are some things we need to discuss. Could you step outside with me?"


    Seeing the grave look on the doctor''s face, Cloudia felt a wave of foreboding. She nced at Urs, lying on the hospital bed, then nodded and followed the doctor into the hallway. Cloudia, her face etched with worry, gazed at the cardiologist, "Is there something wrong with Urs''s health?"


    The doctor nodded solemnly.


    "We''ve been carefully examining her heart condition, and the surgery she requires is quiteplex. I''m afraid we''re not very confident in our ability to handle it."


    Cloudia''s heart lurched at those words.


    "What do you mean you''re not very confident? You''re the experts. If you don''t have confidence, then who does?"


    Cloudia was immediately rmed by the doctor''sck of confidence. The ordeal of Urs''s illness had already been a nightmare for her, tormenting them with the constant fear that Urs might never wake up. Now, hearing the doctor''s words, Cloudia turned pale.


    The doctor continued, "I just want to make sure you understand the risks involved. However, there is one doctor who could significantly increase the sess rate of the surgery if you could persuade him to take the case." "Which doctor?"


    Hope sparked in Cloudia''s eyes at the mention of someone who could potentially save Urs. But when the doctor mentioned the name, her hope plummeted. "Finley Yoder. A young doctor, but exceptionally talented in these matters. He''s handled manyplex surgeries without a single failure."


    Cloudia only caught the name "Finley", her mind nking out on the rest of the doctor''s exnation.


    Why him? The man connected to Ste, whom they had already approached once before.


    "Is there no one other than Finley?" Cloudia asked desperately.


    With the world''s vast medical resources, she couldn''t believe that only Finley had that extent of sess.


    The doctor responded, "I wouldn''t rmend anyone else. Ms. Larkin''s surgery is incrediblyplex, something we''ve never encountered before."


    Given Urs''s prominent position


    the Larkin family, the doctor feltpelled to make the situation clean to avoid any me shouldplications arise.


    Cloudia went silent, feeling weak at the moment.


    Numbly, she nodded, "Okay, I understand."


    The doctor handed her Finley''s contact information, "Here''s his info. We''ve already reached out to him, but he refused. Maybe you can give it a try."


    Left alone, Cloudia leaned against the cold hospital wall, feeling an intense turmoil inside.


    What was she going to do?


    She hadn''t yet figured out how to approach Finley again.


    Then, the leading OB-GYN approached her, "Ms. Larkin''s


    uterine condition is quite precarious. After our analysis, we believe surgery would necessitate the removal of her uterus."
