Chapter 1

As a top-tier surgeon, when I announced my resignation and that I would no longer operate, every surgeon in the hospital was thrilled. They even threw a celebration party.

But only the intern my wife brought in—hailed as a once-in-a-century medical genius—came to me looking deeply troubled.

"Dr. Bennett, even though you made a few mistakes in recent surgeries, your skills are still there. We need you. The patients need you too."

His face was full of earnest concern. If I weren't the one involved, I might have actually believed him.

I turned and walked away without expression.

In my previous life, he was an intern who assisted me in surgeries.

But during each operation, my body would suddenly lose control, and Dylan would step in at the critical moment to finish the surgery flawlessly.

After several instances, he became the medical genius everyone praised, while I became a fraud who didn't deserve my reputation.

To prove my true abilities, I took on a surgery for a patient with a world-class rare condition, despite enormous pressure. I spent sleepless nights researching materials, finding similar cases, and developing a surgical plan.

But when I stepped confidently onto the operating table, my body lost control again.

Dylan once more stepped in to complete the surgery perfectly—and his surgical approach was exactly the same as what I had planned.

He became the miracle doctor in everyone's eyes, while I became the quack everyone despised.

Unable to accept this crushing blow, I ended my life with a scalpel.

When I opened my eyes again, I had returned to the day Dylan first arrived at the hospital.
