Chapter 331
Chapter 331:
Meanwhile, Katelyn’s surgery was scheduled.
Bernice kept her family updated, and feeling the pressure, Moss reluctantly paid Katelyn a visit.
It was more out of duty than desire, as he didn’t have any real affection for her.
His loyalty, or perhaps his obligation, lay with the Harris family, not Katelyn herself.
But even if it was all just a formality, Moss had to go through the motions.
Fortunately, the surgery went smoothly. The tumor was successfully removed, and Katelyn would soon start her chemotherapy.
Surprisingly, Katelyn was in high spirits.
The whole ordeal had given her a new perspective on life. She’d realized something crucial—life was about being healthy and happy, not getting caught up in petty squabbles that led nowhere.
Yelena felt a wave of relief wash over her as she visited and reviewed the surgery report. Everything had gone smoothly with the tumor removal.
She knew Katelyn would be fine in no time.
She had full trust in Donovan. After all, he was a leading expert in his field—with a track record that spoke for itself.
His surgeries were as close to flawless as one could hope for, and that gave Yelena a sense of calm.
Katelyn, observing how much Yelena genuinely cared about her well-being, felt a warm tug at her heart. It struck her then how wrong she’d been about Yelena. How could she have ever pegged this niece of hers as some clueless girl?
A wave of regret washed over Katelyn as she thought back to the times she’d worked against Yelena. Yelena was the one who found Katelyn the right doctor and kept a quiet watch over her condition. She did it all behind the scenes, never seeking attention or trying to win Katelyn’s favor.

Through it all, Yelena had stayed composed and calm, something so rare and valuable.
Looking at her now, Katelyn realized that Yelena was grounded, genuine, and far from the pretentious person she’d once believed her to be.
It seemed that, looking back, she had been completely mistaken about Yelena.
It became clear that people really needed time to understand one another before they could see each other’s true qualities.
Katelyn silently vowed to do better by Yelena from this point forward.
Later, after her visit with Katelyn, Yelena found herself thinking about Austin. He was at a hospital nearby, and she had no idea how he was holding up now.
Something urged her to go check on him, though she wasn’t sure what exactly.
When she knocked on the door and entered, she found Austin on the phone.
She paused, unsure whether she should leave or stay.
But the moment Austin saw her, a flicker of surprise passed through his eyes, and then his expression softened.
Though Austin was still on the phone, he waved at Yelena as she entered.
He quickly wrapped up the call with Domenic and hung up.
There was a brief moment of awkwardness before Yelena spoke up. “Did I interrupt something p>
Austin flashed a smile and shook his head. “No, just Domenic asking me a few things. Honestly, I was getting a bit bored anyway p>
Yelena gave a small nod. “So, what’s the situation now? Do you still need to pretend to be sick p>
Austin leaned back, looking more at ease. “No, Leonel’s holding a board meeting right now. I’m about to surprise him. I’ve been stuck in this bed pretending to be sick for days, and it’s driving me crazy!” He laughed, shaking his head. “It hasn’t been easy p>
Leonel, ever the cautious man, would have suspected something if Austin hadn’t played his part well.
