"I'll just say it straight. When I was examining her, I checked her pulse and found that her body was
severely deficient."
"It's not just because of childhood malnutrition, but also because of the previous miscarriage, which
caused significant damage to her body. Her body has never fully recovered, and the root of the illness
is deep. It might be difficult for her to conceive in the future."
Lucas's words were like a bolt from the blue, dealing Shawn a big blow.
He was stunned for a long while, his mind went blank, and even his fingers hanging by his side didn't
move.
After a while, he forcefully blinked his reddened eyes, suppressing the complexity in his heart.
Then he said, "Don't tell her about this for now."
Recently, she even dreamed about having a baby.
He knew that the baby represented a lifetime of guilt and reluctance in her heart. She even dreamed of
having a baby, but what about now?
If she were to find out about this, she wouldn't be able to bear it.
"Is there really no solution?" After a long silence, Shawn spoke, his voice heavy with concern.
Lucas patted his shoulder and said reassuringly, "There are definitely solutions. One is to have your
nutritionist take good care of her, help her recover, and eliminate the root of the illness. Another is for
you to make more effort. There's a high chance."
"Also, maintaining a good mood and emotions is crucial, so I suggest not telling her for now."
After Lucas finished speaking, he picked up his medical kit and left.
Originally, Anthony had asked him to come and examine Shawn, but unexpectedly, instead of
examining Mr. Lawson, he ended up diagnosing Miss Chase.
Life was truly unpredictable.
As he walked out of the gate, the driver was already waiting.
Lucas walked elegantly towards the car.
Just then, a voice came from behind, "Dr. Gomez..."
The voice sounded familiar.
Although Lucas couldn't recognize the voice, he had just seen her and had an encounter with her, so
he immediately remembered.
He turned around and looked at Lilian with a deep gaze. "Miss Fountain, it's been a while."
"I didn't expect you to remember me. I'm quite flattered." Lilian's words were filled with sarcasm.
Lucas's lips curved with a smile, not showing any hint of annoyance. His voice was calm and
composed. "Miss Fountain, do you have something to say?"
"Of course."
"If it's about the incident when I treated your leg, then there's no need to ask." Lucas's eyes were cold
and calm. "And if it's about something else, there's even less need."
With that, he walked elegantly and raised his leg to get into the car, instructing, "Drive."
Lilian shouted in anger, "Lucas, why? Why don't you tell me the reason? I came just to ask about what
happened back then. Why are you unwilling to say it?"
Lucas calmly looked ahead, not even sparing a glance at Lilian.
Lilian was greatly stimulated. Without thinking, she pressed the button on her wheelchair and crazily
rushed towards Lucas's car.
The driver was frightened, desperately stepping on the brakes.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly enough, and the car stopped just centimeters away from Lilian's
wheelchair.
The driver was so scared that he was drenched in cold sweat, but Lilian extended her arms, blocking
the car in front of her.
She had an attitude of not giving up until she got an answer.
"Lucas, you can sit in the car and not come out, but I must have an answer today."
Lucas gently opened his eyes and said sternly and indifferently, "Move aside."
"If you don't tell me the reason and give me an answer, I absolutely won't go." Lilian's hands were still
extended, and she showed no intention of backing down.
The look in Lucas's eyes grew colder, and his voice became even more apathetic. "I'll say it again.
Move aside."
Lilian remained stubborn. "I know you can be very intimidating when you're angry, but Lucas, you saw
how Shawn treated me just now. As someone who isn't afraid of death, do you think I would be afraid
of your threats?"
"I absolutely won't leave unless you tell me the reason today."
After a few more minutes of stalemate, Lucas glanced at his wristwatch and the dozens of missed calls
on his phone. He relented with a bland expression. "Do you really want to know?"
"Of course I do. I want to know everything." Lilian nodded firmly.
Lucas adjusted his clothes and slowly spoke with a cold tone, "My answer is still the same as before.
Your legs were never treatable back then. Even if you forced an operation, the chances of recovery
were almost zero."
"For a surgery that had almost no chance of success, whether from a doctor's professional perspective
or a friend's perspective, I advised against it. You would suffer in vain."
Unexpectedly, Lilian burst into laughter after hearing this.
"Lucas, you're really hypocritical. After all these years, you're still using the same excuses as before.
Don't think it's lame?"
Lucas's eyes were emotionless. "It's up to you. I've told you, but you don't believe me."
"Nonsense! Back then when I was just injured, my legs were clearly in the best period of recovery, but
you refused to perform surgery on me to avoid failure. You cruelly watched me live in a wheelchair for
so many years."
"What about today? When Norah was lying on the ground like a living dead, why did you save her?
Weren't you afraid that her death would affect your reputation and position?"
"She's different from you," Lucas said.
Ha-ha, different?
She really hated this sentence now.
"What's the difference? If we have to talk about differences, the only one is that you saved her, but not
me."
"All that talk about being unable to save me is complete nonsense. Then why are my legs able to be
cured now?"
"It's different now. Professor Smith's team is leading the research in this field in the country, and with
the rapid development of science and technology, there is indeed a possibility for your treatment."
"I have nothing more to say. This is the last time I'll answer your question. If you dare to stop my car
again, I'm sorry that my driver won't stop."
With that, Lucas gave a cold order. "Start the car."
The driver was a bit afraid. "But that young lady..."
Lilian was still blocking the middle of the road. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Lucas sneered. "Just drive over her. I'll take responsibility if she dies."
The driver clenched his teeth and made up his mind, driving the car directly over her.
"Lucas..." Lilian screamed in fear.
But this time, no one paid attention to her. The car sped over without any intention of slowing down.
Lilian was truly frightened. She immediately pressed the button and desperately retreated.
She had witnessed Lucas's heartlessness and ruthlessness years ago, so she didn't dare to gamble
with her life.
Because she knew that he would really let the car run over her.
But as she tried to avoid it, her wheelchair suddenly malfunctioned and raced forward uncontrollably.
In front of her was a slope, and her wheelchair was completely out of control. What scared her even
more was that there was a steep hill not far away.
She couldn't bear to imagine what would happen if the wheelchair rushed down.
"Help, help!"
"Hurry! Someone, please save me."
She shouted while frantically pressing the button, but the wheelchair continued to rush downward
crazily.
