Don't Mess with the Girl with Candy novel Chapter 299

"Are you deaf?" Juniper asked when no one moved after her instructions. Her expression turned cold. "Anesthesiologist in position. Final tool check. Disinfect the scalp..."

The doctors all looked to Dr. Landon, waiting for his command. After all, he was the top surgeon in the hospital.

Dr. Landon glanced at the patient, whose head was now shaved, and finally relented. This wasn't the time to argue with a child. "Prepare for surgery," he sighed.

Instantly, the operating room sprang to life.

Juniper pulled on her gloves, her eyes fixed on the unconscious form of Saskia, and a familiar ache filled her chest. "I'm here now," she whispered. "There won't be any accidents."

She wouldn't let Saskia die like her grandfather had, fading away before she could reach him.

"Supine position..."

After confirming the local anesthetic had taken effect, Juniper picked up a scalpel to make the first incision. She made small hash marks every three to five centimeters to ensure perfect alignment during closure.

As the blade touched skin, every doctor in the room held their breath. Wait a minute... She actually knew what she's doing. Her scalpel work was incredibly precise, even more so than that of surgeons with decades of clinical experience.

Dr. Landon watched her technique with a deep frown. It was truly extraordinary. But she looked so young, how could she possibly...

"Help me," Juniper said, putting down the scalpel and glancing at the mesmerized doctor. "Place your fingers on the incision."

This step required an assistant to gently retract the scalp.

"Right," Dr. Landon stepped forward, his movements now focused.

Juniper then used scalp clips and sharp dissection to raise the skin flap down to its base. To prevent vascular occlusion, she quickly covered it with saline-soaked gauze and moved on to the second step: the craniotomy.

The only sound in the OR was the steady beep of the heart monitor. Every doctor's eyes were glued to Juniper's hands. Her incisions were exact, her placement flawless, her control unwavering. The patient's vitals remained perfectly stable. This girl had more than just a few tricks up her sleeve.

"Cotton pads..." After cutting the bone flap, Juniper began the dural incision.
