Silvia paused and said, âI have time. Iâll pick you up later.â
Noelle chuckled. âThereâs no rush. I havenât had lunch yet. Do you want to eat together?â
âAlright.â
After she hung up, Silvia quickly scooped out all the broth and put it in the refrigerator. Then she washed the pot and drove directly to the hotel.
When she arrived, Noelle was already waiting in the lobby downstairs.
Noelle picked up a medical document and quickly approached her/
At the same time, a man asked her for her number, but she dismissed him with a few sentences.
Once she entered the car, she said, âNowadays, men keep asking for my number over nothing. Theyâre just in it for the looks.â
Silvia raised an eyebrow in amusement. âItâs not just the looks; itâs the boobs too.â
Noelle was dumbstruck. âI havenât seen you in a few years, but Iâve noticed that youâre getting more and more brazen.â
âWhat do you want for lunch?â
Noelle leaned against the car window and smiled. âAnything spicy.â
She was a Louisianian girl, so she only ate spicy food. When they used to study medicine together, the amount of chili she added to her food each time was scary.
âIâve tried a good Louisianian restaurant before. Why donât we go for Louisianian food?â
âOkay. Itâs up to you!â
The two of them went straight to the hospital after lunch. Once they looked through Chrisâs medical report, Noelleâs face became extremely grim.
âSil, there really is just a fifty-percent chance of success. Itâll be extremely risky.â
Silvia nodded. âYes, I know. But without surgery, thereâs less than a ten-percent chance that heâll survive. Heâs just waiting to die.â
âAlright. Iâll do my best.â
âThank you, Noelle!â
Noelle was very busy right now. If Chrisâs issue had not been so important, Silvia would not have bothered her.
âWeâve only been apart for a few years, but youâve already learned to use such pleasantries. Do we really need to thank each other so formally?
Besides, itâs a doctorâs job to save lives.â
Silvia laughed. âYes. Together, weâll make this surgery a success!â
After they left, Chrisâs attending physician entered his ward.
âChris, weâve set the time for your surgery. Itâll be three days from now at 10 a.m. Youâll need to fast a day in advance.â
Chris calmly nodded. âOkay.â
He did not have high hopes.
Seeing his disinterest, the attending physician sighed and said, âYou can prepare for surgery with some peace of mind. The doctor is fifty percent sure that it will be a success.â
The emotions in Chrisâs eyes did not change. He remained serious as he said, âThank you, Dr. Howard.â
Even if there was a fifty percent success rate, there was still a fifty percent failure rate. As such, Chris was not optimistic.
Dr. Howard did not know how to comfort him. He sighed and told Chris to get some rest before leaving.
More than ten minutes later, Katherine walked into the ward with a change of clothes for Chris. Noticing that he was still staring out the window, she said, âWhy donât I send Silvia a message? That way, she can come over and pay you a visit.â
Chris turned to her and said, âIf you have so much free time, you can attend to other artists. I can get a caregiver to take care of me.â
Katherine was speechless.
The ward fell silent once again, and Chris continued to look out the window.
Katherine sighed and pulled a chair next to him to keep him company.
After Silvia sent Noelle back to her hotel, she returned to the mansion.
