Chapter 158
“I’m a human, not a robot. Do you know how long I’ve been standing inside? If I don’t come out soon, I’ll be the one who needs to be rescued?” The military doctor was so angry that he felt like he was about to have a heart attack.
“Then why is Marina still doing the surgery? She’s a girl and she can still soldier through, but you can’t?”
“You’ve grown so big for nothing. You’re useless!” Brendon’s tone was filled with disdain.
The military doctor almost couldn’t catch his breath and nearly fainted.
But this guy was right. That girl was so much younger than him.
Moreover, she was the chief surgeon, but she did not look tired at all.
After persevering for more than ten hours, her hands were still so steady.
Meanwhile, he was doing some assistant work at the side and was about to collapse.
Therefore, he couldn’t refute Brendon’s words at all.
“I think when Matthew wakes up, you will be replaced by another personal military doctor.” Brendon still felt that it was not enough, so he added.
The military doctor couldn’t even say a full sentence at this point.
Da mn it!
Did this guy really understand that it wasn’t that he was too useless?
It was that the young lady inside was too unbelievable.
How could someone persist in the surgery for so long without even changing their expression?
Moreover, Matthew’s surgery was very detailed.
She had to be extremely careful and she could not afford to make any mistakes.
This was indeed a huge challenge for a doctor.
However, the young lady inside seemed to be doing it very easily.
The military doctor let out a long sigh. “If she can be Matthew’s new personal military doctor, I have no objections.”
When Brendon heard his words, he looked at him as if he was looking at an idiot.
“What did I say wrong again?” The military doctor felt that his heart, which was already torn apart, could no longer withstand any blows.
“Who do you think Maria is? Do you think she’s the same as you? Making her a military doctor is actually a waste of talent!” Brendon said firmly.
The military doctor was speechless.
At this moment, Marina finally walked out of the room.
“Marina, how is it?” Brendon’s disdain toward the military doctor was replaced by concern.
The military doctor felt that he should give himself a shot of cardiac stimulant.
Otherwise, he was afraid that he would die on the spot.
“Matthew’s condition has stabilized for the time being. Although the surgery was very successful, Matthew is old after all. He has to recuperate well in the

future. It’ll take a month at least or it may take two months for him to recover.”
Marina’s voice was still very clear. She did not look tired at all.
She did not look like she had just performed surgery for more than ten hours.
“That’s good, that’s good.” Brendon heaved a sigh of relief. “If something happens to Matthew this time, I’ll really have to take my own life to confess my
sins.”
“What exactly happened? Why did Matthew suddenly suffer such a serious injury?” Marina asked in a low voice.
Matthew had always been protected by a bunch of agents.
“It’s a long story. Let’s wait until Matthew wakes up.” Brendon sighed.
“Alright,” Marina replied.
Then, she ate something to replenish her strength.
At noon, Matthew finally woke up.
Marina and Brendon entered the room immediately.
“Matthew, you’re awake. Do you feel any discomfort?” Marina checked Matthew’s vitals and found that they were all very stable.
“Was it you, you brat, who informed Marina?” Matthew looked at Marina in front of him and glared at Brendon who was standing at the back.
“You’ve suffered so many injuries previously that the military doctor didn’t know what to do anymore. I could only call Marina over.” Brendon shrank his
neck.
“What did I tell you before? Marina is no longer a soldier, and this matter is very dangerous. How can you involve a civilian in such a dangerous matter?”
Matthew was furious.
“I had no choice,” Brendon mumbled.
“That won’t do either. As soldiers, the most important thing is to protect the civilians. We can give up everything for this!” Matthew said firmly.
Brendon lowered his head. “I understand. I’ll definitely try not to do that again next time.”
Matthew didn’t say a thing.
At first, Marina thought that there was nothing wrong with it, but the more she listened, the more she felt that something was off.
Toward the end, she couldn’t control her expression anymore.
“Enough, you two. Is there a need to put on a show like this in front of me?” Marina rolled her eyes.
“What show? I’m speaking from the bottom of my heart. Have you forgotten what I told you when I recruited you to Team 793?
“The interests of the people are above everything else. How long have you been away? Have you forgotten all this?” Matthew said seriously.
Marina let out a long sigh. “I didn’t forget.”
“It’s good that you didn’t forget. Brendon, hurry up and send our civilian, Marina, out of here. We can’t let her be in danger,” Matthew ordered.
“Matthew, It’s not like you don’t know what Marina’s capable of. You don’t have to worry about her at all.” Brendon was kind of a dummy.
Until now, he still did not understand Matthew’s intentions.
“No matter how skilled she is, she’s still a civilian. Stop talking nonsense with me. Hurry up and send her away!” Matthew glared at him angrily.
This guy might look like a hunk but his head was really empty.
However, it was because of his straightforward personality that he could get so many bad people in Janeborough under control.
“Alright.” Brendon felt that there was something wrong with Matthew today.
However, since Matthew had spoken, as his subordinate, he naturally could not disobey him.
Although he felt that it was a little cruel of Matthew to kick Marina out right after she just saved his life.
However, he still turned to look at Marina.
“Marina, let me send you back first.”
However, Marina stood rooted to the ground.
She looked at Matthew on the bed and let out a long sigh.
“Alright, you’ve just woken up and you can’t waste your energy like this. Just say it. What do you want me to do?”
When Matthew saw Marina’s expression, he knew that this girl had chosen to compromise.
His eyes instantly lit up. “I want you to pick someone up for me!”
Marina was about to speak, but Matthew interrupted her again.
“However, this mission was very confidential. Only soldiers can participate in it.”
This little old man had said so much just to set her up.
