The Spare Wife by Nadia Gordon
Chapter 643 The Fragile Sean Abigail sat on the edge of the bed, extending her hand toward him.
Previously, Sean always felt that Abigailâs hand was cold, but when he touched it this time, he found that it was warm.
He had looked it up before and knew that it might be due to her weak health.
Now, he was the one who was physically weak... Sean instantly felt terrible. How did he, a grown man, become so weak?
Gently rubbing Abigailâs hand, Sean said, âI used to think your hand was cold, but I find it rather warm now.â
Abigail looked at the disappointment in his eyes and felt uneasy.
âYou will definitely get better, so what are you worried about?â She looked at Sean, her tone calm.
Sean smiled at her. âIâm not worried.â
Whether he was worried or not, Abigail could tell. However, she wasnât the one who was sick, so she couldnât truly understand him.
When Scarlett and Lawrence entered with several bags, Abigail wondered if they were going to empty out the entire hotel.
âWhy are there so many...â Abigail exclaimed.
âI donât know what he likes to eat, so I made a little bit of everything. Eating a bit of each dish is good for the body,â Scarlett said.
She prepared each dish based on its different healing effects, so each dish. had its purpose.
Sean looked at the table full of dishes and immediately said to Scarlett, âThank you, Mrs. Pearson.â
âWhat are you thanking me for? Hurry up and eat. If it doesnât suit your taste, let me know.â Scarlett smiled and handed him a fork and knife.
Abigail also sat at the dining table under Lawrenceâs insistence.
While eating, Abigailâs phone rang.
It was Ronaldo, who she hadnât talked to in a long time.
Abigail stood up with her phone and said to Sean, âIâll take this call first, so you go ahead and eat.â
After she left the ward, Lawrence and Scarlett immediately served Sean, âYou should eat more and replenish your body to get better. When you return to Pendorf after recovering, you should eat well.
Donât worry about maintaining a good figure. The most important 1/3 thing is to have a healthy body, then you can consider your figure,â Lawrence carefully explained to Sean.
Sean couldnât help but chuckle. âIâve never deliberately maintained my figure.â
He used to exercise regularly, so he was in good shape.
âYou havenât deliberately maintained your figure, but your figure is already this good, eh?â Lawrence couldnât help but mutter.
Scarlett couldnât help but say, âLet him eat. Why are we discussing his figure?â
At their age, why were they comparing figures with a youngster?
Abigail had contacted so many people, and Ronaldo was the quickest to respond.
âYou mentioned something about finding a doctor, and Iâve already inquired about it. I know an elderly traditional medicine doctor who is almost eighty years old, but she lives in very poor conditions. If Mr. Graham wants to see her, he may have to endure a difficult time for a while,â Ronaldo warned Abigail in advance.
Abigail was a bit puzzled. âWhat do you mean by a difficult time?â
âWell, she lives in the mountains, on a separate island even. Mr. Graham would have to stay with her on the mountain and help her with various tasks. The old lady refuses to come down, but I assure you, her traditional medicine skills are remarkable, although the lineage has been broken. Let me tell you another secret-she used to be a witch doctor here.â Ronaldo chuckled.
Abigail was skeptical, but she still respected different cultural practices.
âIn that case, Iâll wait until Sean is feeling better and bring him over. It wonât be a problem staying on the mountain, and I can even help with some chores,â Abigail said, hoping that the doctor Ronaldo found would truly be effective.
âAlright, Iâve already spoken to the old lady, and sheâs willing to see Mr. Graham,â Ronaldo said. âOnce you have everything arranged, Iâll fly over in a helicopter to pick you up and take you to her.â
âSay, doesnât she live on a mountain? Is there even a place for you to land?â Abigail was a bit confused. Flying in a helicopter seemed a bit too extravagant, no?
âYes, of course there is. Why wouldnât there be one?â Ronaldo just wanted to show off his newly purchased helicopter.
After Abigail agreed, she couldnât help but ask, âCan the old lady really help? Seanâs condition is quite serious.â
âJust how serious is it?â Ronaldo asked curiously.
After hesitating for a moment, Abigail decided to tell Ronaldo about the situation. She knew that withholding information would only delay Ronaldoâs judgment.
2/3 After listening, Ronaldo couldnât help but click his tongue. âThis is muced quite serious. Iâll ask the old Tady again today. If she canât treat him, then donât come over. If it doesnât work in the country, you can try going abroad.â
âI know. Heâs still in the hospital because of a cold, and we donât know when heâll be discharged,â Abigail said, sighing heavily.
Ronaldo immediately reassured her, saying, âItâs not a big problem. Traditional medicine doctors in our country are still very skilled. As long as you search diligently, youâll find a solution.â
âThank you.â Abigail felt a little better.
Regardless, the fact that he called back so quickly gave her some hope.
After hanging up the phone, Abigail turned and returned to the hospital room.
Sean had already eaten his fill, but with the persuasion of Lawrence and Scarlett, he ate a little more.
âWe found a lady, but we are not sure if she can cure him. If she can, weâll head to Eastbay after heâs discharged.â Abigail sat down and told Lawrence and Scarlett about her plans.
