Chapter 1734
At Mount Village.
Chloe was sleeping when the phone beside her rang. It was silent that night, and the ringing of her phone pierced the silence, arousing Chloe awake from her sleep. Taking her phone, she realized that it was a text from Chris.
Why would he send a text this late?
She quickly unlocked her phone, and upon reading Chris’ text, she was dazed for a few seconds.
Chris was going to Roskow with Charmine, and for two to three years at that?
Why so sudden?
Was it because of Anthony's abrupt departure, and it hurt Charmine again?
Anthony was receiving treatment at an island!
Thinking of that, Chloe thought of the email she received yesterday when an international doctor, Doctor Schnarch, sought her advice.
She instantly logged onto her account and sent out an email.
[Doctor Schnarch, how's the artificial hippocampus getting along?]
If the surgery succeeded, Anthony would be able to come back right away. Why would Charmine leave, then?
Chloe received a reply very quickly.
[Only twenty percent chance of success. Even so, there's a big chance of paralysis.]
Chloe narrowed her eyes.
Only 20-percent chance of success? How could that be?
She was still looking forward to Anthony coming back after surgery to reunite with Charmine.
She quickly replied, [The patient didn’t agree to it, did he?] [He agreed. The operation is happening now.]
Chloe's head buzzed at the email response.
Anthony agreed to this dangerous surgery? He would gamble his life for Charmine?
If the surgery failed, Anthony would never wake up again, and Charmine would live with regret for the rest of her life.
No. She must not let this happen!
Chloe jumped out of bed and ran out of the house.
William's car pulled over outside the village. His tall figure exited the car as he then made his way into the village, knowing the place quite well.
Charmine had just cleaned up the bamboo house when she heard knocks on the door. She walked out to open the door and saw William dressed in a suit, standing by the door elegantly. "Ms. Jordan, are you ready?" he spoke.
"Yes."
Charmine then turned and said to Dior, "Let's be off, Ms. Granger.” "Okay." Dior picked up her luggage.
William, however, walked up to her considerately. "Let me have that."
He took Dior’s luggage, along with Charmine's and Chris', saying, 'The car is outside the village."
Charmine nodded and held Chris’ hand. She turned off the lights, and the four of them left together.
When they got to the car, Chris took another look at the village chief's house. He bit his lip before he finally entered the car.
Charmine, meanwhile, sorted out every luggage and came before the car before pausing for a moment to take a glance at the serene village.
She felt conflicted. This place made her sad, but as she was leaving, she felt longingness for this place.
Charmine looked away, but just as she was about to go inside the car, she heard a child’s voice urgently calling out to her.
"Auntie Charmine, hold on!"
Dior, Charmine, Chris, and William stopped in their tracks as they instinctively turned toward the voice.
They saw the tiny figure of Chloe running toward them in her pajamas and slippers, running across the bamboo bridge quickly.
Charmine and Dior exchanged glances, startled at the sight.
A moment later, Chloe ran to the car and said, panting, "Auntie Charmine, where are you going?" Belongs to © n0velDrama.Org.
Charmine reached out to tuck Chloe's hair behind her ear.
