Chapter 808 Not Your Fault
Jean wasnât feeling well, therefore Neera was hesitant to go to work.
And so, to work from home, she had Neil email her all the necessary documents.
âYou havenât fully recovered,â she said after lunch with Jean and the kids.â You need more rest; get
some sleep.â
Jean was still feeling a little under the weather. He didnât want her to be concerned, so he agreed.
Neera received a phone call from Luigi in the afternoon.
âGerald has been brought to Essley, Nancy. Are you available to come over?â
Neera looked at the clock and said, âSure, give me thirty minutes.â
While she had originally agreed to treat Gerald, she has since returned to Essley to be with Adriana.
She had left the patient in the care of Luigi and Osbert before she left.
Things had taken an unexpected turn on Mr. Hansonâs side, and he had called them back to Essley.
As a result, Luigi had to make arrangements for the patient to be transported to Essley.
A little embarrassed, Luigi explained, âBy the way, we arenât at the research center.â
Neera was about to hang up when she received this unexpected piece of information. She asked in
confusion, âWhere are you then?â
âI had intended to arrange for Gerald to be treated at Mr. Hansonâs research center, but his father strongly protested when he learned that the research center is run by Thoraâs father.â
Neera caught on at once.
âYou can send him to my research center,â she said after a brief pause.
Previously, Aunt Adriana had given her a research center in Essley as a graduation present.
Luigi sighed in relief and quickly agreed, âOkay.â
Neera hung up the phone and returned to some unfinished paperwork before rushing over.
She had no choice but to bring Gerald to Essley. She was too busy, and there was one more thing
on her plate now.
Neera had made a promise and she intended to keep them. Gerald was only partially treated, she couldnât abandon her patient.
When she arrived, she saw Peter and Shana Duncan.
She greeted them at once, then apologized, saying, âIâm sorry, but I had to leave the country
because my aunt was ill, and I needed to stay here for a while.â
This didnât bother Peter at all. He understood the situation. He simply said, âJean has told me about.
it.â
A hint of tenderness in his eyes as he thought of his youngest son. He continued, âGed has become
healthier. He couldnât get out of bed before, but now he can move around and talk to us. Weâre
happy and relieved. We couldnât be more grateful.â
How could they possibly blame her?
âIâm a doctor,â Neera explained with a smile. Itâs my duty to treat him. Iâm happy that he is
healthier.â
Neera entered the ward to check on Gerald after a brief exchange of pleasantries.
Luigi was inside. When he saw her, he filled her in on the childâs condition.
âBefore this, the poison had entered his internal org ans. A small amount of the poison has been removed with your timely treatment and the antidote. If he gets treatment on time, he will fully
recover.
Neera gave a nod. She began the treatment after assessing Geraldâs physical condition.
An hour later, she wiped the sweat from her forehead as she walked out.
Peter and his wife were waiting at the door.
They approached her as soon as she walked out.
Neera knew what they had in mind; therefore, she took the initiative to speak.
âGed has a good chance at recovery, but he still needs to accept a prolonged period of treatment. For the time being, he should stay at the research center. Donât worry; this is my property, and nothing will happen to him. There is a lounge room next to his ward, which is not luxurious but
comfortable. You can rest there.â
Peter and his wife breathed a sigh of relief and expressed their gratitude.
Shana, in particular, was overjoyed, and she grabbed Neeraâs hand. Her eyes had turned red.
âThank you, Neera. I honestly donât know what else to say other than thank you. I appreciate all the
hard work; please continue to take good care of my son.â
