Serena arched a brow at him.
She didn't speak, but her expression screamed: Is that a problem?
Suddenly, Douglas remembered what she had said back at the warehouse...
The Ghost Alliance has a Ghost Doctor who snatches people back from the Reaper.
It finally clicked. His eyes widened in absolute shock as he stared at her.
His niece...
Don't tell him she was the Ghost Doctor too?!
How many goddamn secret identities did she have?!
Douglas was completely and utterly dumbfounded.
It took him a long moment to find his voice. “But... but the risks are astronomical. And he's family. I'm worried...”
No matter how brilliant a surgeon was, operating on family was a golden rule no one broke.
Emotions clouded judgment.
Especially since this was her grandfather.
The fatality rate for this procedure was off the charts.
Even knowing she was the Ghost Doctor, he feared the psychological weight would crush her.
She was a genius, yes.
But she was still just a twenty-year-old girl.
“His body can't wait.” Serena met Douglas's gaze, her voice unshakable. “When I operate, there are no risks.”
Looking into her calm, confident eyes, Douglas felt his anxiety melt away.
He was right.
His niece didn't make promises she couldn't keep.
She was Demon.
