Chapter 780 Was the Surgery Successful?
However, since Craig was Dermot's friend and Margaret hadn't given up on Dermot yet, she didn't want to make things too awkward. So she nodded at Craig as a greeting.
But Craig couldn't be bothered with her; he also disdained Margaret.
Margaret was truly infuriated by it.
"Do all you people from Moris City act so arrogant?" First, there was Evelyn, and now there's Craig."
Dermot, without saying, was even more arrogant. Margaret knew that well.
Craig, who was sitting on the bench outside the operating room, sneered as soon as he heard it, "Maybe it's not that we're arrogant, but that you're insecure。"
"Craig!" Margaret was enraged. "I'm letting it slide because you're Dermot's friend, but don't push it."
"Ms. Martin, what you said sounds strange. Am I pushing it? I haven't done anything." Craig spread his hands, looking innocent.
Definitely, Craig did nothing, but it was his attitude that made Margaret infuriated.
Margaret snorted coldly and sat on the bench opposite him, deciding not to continue the conversation with Craig, or she would be driven mad by him sooner or later.
However, even though she stopped talking, Craig continued, "Ms. Martin, you must be very worried right now. After all, if Dermot's surgery is successful, your lies will be exposed."
Outsiders didn't know Dermot's situation, but Craig knew it very well.
Dermot's affection for Evelyn wasn't some so-called psychological issue; it was genuine affection from the heart.
And he could also perceive that Dermot's previous affection for Evelyn had become somewhat strange, likely influenced by psychological issues.
But that's a different matter. At the very least, Dermot genuinely liked Evelyn, and the psychological issues only exaggerated the affection.
"Lies? Dermot had psychological issues before; who can say for sure that his liking for Evelyn wasn't because of that?" Margaret wasn't afraid of anything. Even if Dermot regained his memory, he had no reason to blame her.
Craig sneered, "It seems Ms. Martin is quite stubborn."
"Not as much as you, chasing Ruby all the way to Colombia, only for Ruby to not even look at you," Margaret retorted sarcastically.
Craig's expression changed instantly, and asked, "You've been investigating me?"
"I've investigated everyone related to Dermot. Your story just happens to be more interesting." Margaret didn't deny it. mainly because she didn't take him seriously.
Even if the Irvine Group merged with Dermot's former Doyle Group, it would still be a mid-level family in Colombia, not worth mentioning to the Martin family.
Craig gritted his teeth, seemingly thinking of something, and sneered, "Ms. Martin, I don't think your situation is better. If the Martin family valued you so much, you wouldn't have been a psychologist for so many years."
He continued, "Now you see a chance for Dermot to take over the Doyle family, so you decided to take a gamble. If you win, you can use him to control the Martin family. If you lose, it doesn't affect you much; you can go back to being a psychologist, which was your previous job anyway."
Margaret's face turned ugly, but she didn't deny it because it was the truth.
They didn't continue arguing and fell into silence. It wasn't until the afternoon, after a full six-hour surgery, that the door to the operating room opened, and a nurse came out.
"Is Dermot's family here?" the nurse called out at the door.
Craig and Margaret stepped forward together, anxiously asking, "Was the surgery successful?"
