Chapter 273:
Charlotte, who had been silently helping, gasped in shock. “That machine costs fifty million each tit’s used,
and even then, it might not save her!”
“I don’t care! Just use it!”
Khloe’s gaze locked onto Charlotte, her eyes icy with determination, her presence commanding.
Charlotte was momentarily taken aback by the sheer force of Khloe’s presence, but she quickly sprang into
action, joining the staff to prepare the life-support machine for Celeste.
Once activated, the machine pumped blood into Celeste, temporarily taking over the heart's function and
circulating blood outside her body. Her pale complexion began to regain the slightest hint of color.
Khloe kept her focus sharp, her eyes darting between the monitors as sweat trickled down her face. She knew
this was just a temporary fix, not a solution.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWithout hesitation, Khloe started stitching the wound in Celeste’s heart.
The wound was a chaotic mess of blood, but Khloe’s hands remained steady as she expertly avoided the vital
vessels and tissues, carefully stitching the heart’s gaping cut.
Tseemed to stretch on, and the life-support machine had been running for a full hour. The operating room
was eerily quiet, with only Khloe's quiet breaths and the faint sound of the suture needle piercing tissue.
After what seemed like an eternity, the wound on Celeste’s heart was finally stitched shut.
Khloe exhaled, her body sagging with relief as she signaled to Charlotte. “Now, stop the extracorporeal
circulation gradually and give her the medication to kick-start her heart.”
Charlotte nodded, her nerves evident as she followed Khloe’s instructions.
As the circulation slowed to a stop, Celeste’s heartbeat, which had been barely detectable, flatlined completely.
Khloe felt a cold wave of dread wash over her, her face draining of color as she stared at the flat line on the
monitor.

What now? Was there anything else she could try?
The other staff in the lab shared the sdefeated expression, and Charlotte's disappointment was clear.
Seeing Khloe’s grave face, she murmured, “Khloe, you've done all you could, but the surgery’s a failure.”
But before Charlotte could finish, Khloe stunned everyone by doing something unexpected.
Without warning, she ripped out the blood transfusion tube that had been keeping Celeste’s vital signs stable.
The room was filled with stunned silence as everyone struggled to understand why Khloe would do something so
surprising.
“Khloe, what are you doing?” Charlotte asked, her voice laced with panic.
Khloe didn’t answer. Her eyes remained fixed on Celeste, filled with quiet determination. With a decisive motion,
she moved to the medicine cabinet, pulling out several vials, and began mixing the compounds with practiced
precision.
The mixture was her own creation, designed to trigger cellular regeneration and repair, particularly for damaged
heart tissue.

effects were entirely uncertain. It could cause unpredictable immune reactions, allergies, or even severe harm to
other organs. Celeste could collapse and die right after the injection.
What weighed on her even more was the knowledge that using an unapproved drug on a human could ruin her
career and destroy her lab if it cto light.
But what haunted her most was the fear of failing Celeste and living with the guilt forever.
Charlotte quickly realized the compounds were connected to heart repair.
