Katelyn simply stared at him. Her expression made it clear—his casual demeanor hadn’t convinced her.

Vincent recognized her skepticism and added, “Oh, and I also attached a scrambler to their main control satellite.”

This meant that all their communication systems—every walkie-talkie signal—would have collapsed into chaos.

Katelyn couldn’t suppress a gasp as she looked at him with deepening admiration. “Impressive!”

The financial resources required to place a scrambler on the main control satellite were nothing short of terrifying. This wasn’t some minor operation accomplished with pocket change—it required vast wealth and connections.

Vincent merely offered a faint smile at Katelyn’s praise. Yet beneath his casual demeanor, her happiness clearly brought him genuine satisfaction.

The moment was interrupted by a soft groan from the figure lying on the bed.

As the woman on the bed slowly opened her eyes, Katelyn turned to face her. The instant their eyes met, the woman’s body jerked back sharply. Still groggy and weak from the anesthesia, terror flooded her expression as she looked at Katelyn and Vincent.

“Don’t come near me! Help! Ah!” Her screams echoed in the room, her hands clutching at her head in panic. She seemed trapped in a nightmare, her fear causing her to cry out repeatedly.

Seeing her distress, Katelyn quickly tried to soothe her. “Don’t be afraid. We won’t hurt you.”

Katelyn and Vincent paused, carefully maintaining their distance to avoid further alarming her.

The woman’s reaction to their proximity was pure terror, her body shaking uncontrollably. Slowly, she seemed to realize that Katelyn and Vincent meant no harm, and her body began to relax from its tense state.

But then, a strange giggle escaped her lips. “My baby, my sweet baby.” She reached for a pillow on the bed, holding it tenderly as though it were a precious infant.

This scene deeply saddened Katelyn, clueless about the horrors the woman must have endured.

Katelyn and Vincent remained still, silently observing her without making any further moves.

Katelyn understood the shock the woman was experiencing due to the strangeness of the surroundings. She knew the importance of a gentle approach.

She exchanged a meaningful glance with Vincent. Both understood the silent agreement between them; then, they quietly exited the room.

Stepping outside, Katelyn suggested to Vincent, “Let’s allow her some time to acclimate. We’ll proceed with her treatment gradually.” The road to recovery would indeed be lengthy. A resolution wouldn’t be achieved swiftly.

Katelyn was aware of the urgency to perform surgery, but it was crucial that the patient was cooperative to avoid jeopardizing the procedure.
