?Chapter 690:


    Dani’s eyes swept over the team she’d gathered. Her tone was firm and cold.


    “Run the checks again.”


    She moved to the foot of Cedric’s bed, silently observing as the team carried out their examinations.


    Once they confirmed there were no issues, Dani’s voice cut through the silence.


    “Run a blood test.”


    The team exchanged surprised nces before the attending doctor stepped forward.


    “Everything appears stable. The body asionally produces subconscious reactions that can skew the data. There’s no need for frequent blood tests—they could end up harming the patient.”


    Typically, at this point, family members would ease up and trust the doctor’s judgment.


    The medical staff in the room were also preparing to hand over their shifts. However, Dani wasn’t about to back down.


    “I want to double-check, just to be sure,” she insisted.


    Linden leaned against the corner, raising an eyebrow, his gaze lingering on Dani with a quiet intensity.


    With little choice but to obey, the attending doctor reluctantly carried out a routine blood test.


    By the time the results were due, most of the doctors had retired for the night, leaving just the attending doctor and Dani waiting.


    Linden strolled over with a smile and told Dani,

    “Why don’t you let my mentor take a break? He’s been through a lot today. I’ll stay here and keep youpany.”


    Dani nodded at Ryan, signaling for him to escort the attending doctor to the lounge as she waited for the results.


    Linden slid into the seat next to Dani, shing a confident smile. He had carefully styled his hair, manicured his nails, and chosen an outfit that made him look younger.


    “You and Mr. Phillips seem to have a wonderful rtionship,” he remarked.


    Dani remained silent, her attention focused elsewhere.


    Not one to be discouraged, Linden continued,


    “Couples often get anxious and flustered when facing challenges. It’s impressive how calm andposed you are.”


    Dani took a slow sip of her water, her expression unchanged.


    “I don’t have the luxury of panic.”


    Linden chuckled, sensing an opportunity to change the subject.


    “I’ve heard your business is doing exceptionally well.”


    Finishing her ss, Dani set it down with deliberate calmness.


    “It’s not about sess. I’m busy because I’m surrounded by people with hidden motives. With my partner in aa, I can’t afford to drop my guard. If I don’t stay vignt, those who mean to take advantage will win.”


    Linden was briefly taken aback by her words. But before he could respond, Cedric’s report arrived, showing a chaotic mess of blood indicators.


    Linden observed Dani’sposed expression. She exuded calm and logic, her brilliance shining through in that moment.


    Linden watched as she took the report and knocked on the dean’s office door. That night, the entire medical team gathered to consult on Cedric’s condition.
