The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1273

"You're overthinking. We were never that close, and so many things have happened between us that things can't go back to the way they were," Renee said softly as she gazed into the distance. In the past, she might have had feelings for him, but after all these events, they had started to fade.

The only thing she wanted now was for her family to be safe and healthy—that was all that mattered.

After a while, they heard footsteps, and saw Robert walking towards them dressed in casual clothes and carrying a surgery kit.

"Doctor Cromwell, aren't you going to treat my brother today? Why do you…"

Renee looked at Robert's attire in confusion. He didn't look like someone who was about to perform surgery.

"Miss Everheart, Mr. Baldwin… I'm so sorry, I can't treat him. The dean has arranged for someone else to take over, so you both can talk to the new attending doctor… I have something to do at home, so I'll leave now."

"What?" Renee's eyes grew wide in shock. "Didn't you do a good job with the surgery? You saved him, so why are you giving up now?"

"Haze, what should we do now? Why did Robert leave like that? The medical team will be ruined if he leaves! Quinton is still in the ICU ward… Will he be stuck in a coma forever?" Renee asked Haze anxiously, her gaze desperate and panicked.

Haze sighed. "I'll ask the dean about it."

They both made their way to the dean's office, where he was busy making calls and gathering the most exceptional doctors he knew to form a professional medical team. When he saw Haze and Renee, he smiled broadly at them. "Mr. Baldwin, Miss Everheart, you're here. I want to discuss something with you."
