Mistaken Match: Marrying the Enigmatic CEO by Ruby Fennimore

Chapter 494
Elizabeth immediately turned around and looked at Adolph before she fell to
her knees and pleaded, “Dad, please let Manuel take a look at Claudette. He
might have a solution!”
Adolph’s face displayed mixed emotions.
While he didn’t believe that a gynecologist could cure his daughter when
even the various specialists he had brought in could not, Claudette’s mother
was the woman he loved the most, and Claudette was his most cherished
daughter. Even if it was a long shot, he secretly wanted to give it a try.
After contemplating for a long time and seeing his tearful youngest
daughter, Adolph finally conceded. He stood up and coldly uttered,
“Emmanuel, I’ll give you a chance for Elizabeth’s sake. Come with me!”
“Yes, sir!”
Emmanuel couldn’t believe that Adolph had actually agreed, considering
how harshly he had treated him before. Adolph didn’t seem like a reasonable
person.
Regardless of what Adolph was thinking, Emmanuel’s sole objective was to
see Claudette again, understand her condition, and even find a way to bring
her back to life.
However, Emmanuel, who hadn’t felt too hopeful right from the start, felt a

sense of despair when he entered the special ward.
Claudette lay there completely clean, with only a white sheet covering her.
There was no one else present besides the two female doctors and nurses
taking care of her.
She was surrounded by cold machines.
Although the bullet hadn’t pierced her heart, it had severely damaged her
cardiac and pulmonary functions. Currently, she was being kept alive by an
artificial heart–lung machine.
It had been over half a month since she was shot, and despite using
machines and nutrient solutions to forcefully keep her alive, her physical
condition had deteriorated significantly. An older person in such a condition
wouldn’t have survived.
In the room, there were only Adolph, Laura, and four female medical staff.
Emmanuel couldn’t care less about anything else as he directly removed the
sheet covering Claudette.
Claudette’s body still possessed graceful curves, but they were no longer
enticing and tender like before. She appeared pale and lifeless, much like
frozen seafood.
Since Emmanuel was a gynecologist, he didn’t have any taboos as he went
on and examined Claudette’s condition.

Adolph didn’t stop him. However, he did exert pressure from behind. “You and
Mackenzie Quillen have to take responsibility for the state Claudette is in.
Until she wakes up, I will remain an enemy of the Quillen family and fight
them to the end. If Claudette dies, we shall become each other’s sworn
-enemies!”
Emmanuel didn’t respond to him and continued to carefully examine
Dedeu Ö.
Claudette’s condition. Suddenly, he discovered that her heart was different
from that of an ordinary person. Not only was it slightly misaligned, but even
its overall structure was different.
He whipped around and blurted out, “General Lenoir, please immediately
freeze Claudette to put her body into a complete hibernation state. I might
have a way to save her!”
Adolph and Laura, both not fully believing him, couldn’t hide their
astonishment.
Emmanuel couldn’t explain too much to them and simply stated firmly, “After
freezing Claudette, please hand her over to me. I will find a way to bring her
back to life within three months!”
Emmanuel’s medical skills were not only taught to him by his father since
childhood but also learned during his studies in the Northern Region. The

people who taught him included the renowned Kolton Stevenson and a
master physician known as the Ghost Doctor.
In Claudette’s current condition, normal medical methods could only barely
sustain her for a period of time before she inevitably died. In order to save
her, Emmanuel had to take her to see the master physician, who might have
a solution.
However, Adolph sneered at him. “What a joke! Why should I believe you?”
Emmanuel immediately replied, “General Lenoir, if you have another way to
revive Claudette, then you don’t have to trust me! But you must trust me if
you don’t have any other options!”
Laura also looked up at Adolph, hoping that he would trust Emmanuel even
though she didn’t dare to say it outright.
Adolph only continued to snort. “If you can save Claudette, do it in the Lenoir
Residence. I’ll provide whatever equipment and medicinal materials you
need, but I won’t allow you to take her away!”
Emmanuel saw the older man’s resolute expression and was momentarily at
-a–loss for what to do.
