Martin followed his wife in the street

[Bassim]

I am wondering if my sentences sound natural. Would you please correct my mistakes?

Martin followed his wife in the street and was furious when he saw her entering a plastic surgeon's office. He had already paid for her five operations and didn't wish to pay for any more.

Martin followed his wife [STRIKE]in[/STRIKE] down/up/along the street and was furious when he saw her entering a plastic surgeon's office. He had already paid for [STRIKE]her[/STRIKE] five operations and didn't [STRIKE]wish[/STRIKE] want to pay for any more.

See above. I'd be more inclined to use "plastic surgeon's clinic" or "plastic surgery clinic" unless the plastic surgeon in question has an office in a different location from the clinic.

Fair point. I just thought that the situation made it pretty clear that he had paid for five operations for his wife (rather than for anyone else) without specifically stating it.

You could use the five operations she'd (already) had.
