Chapter 1132
Jay then asked, “Well, can I visit him?’ “I wouldn’t encourage it—he should avoid unnecessary contact for the time being. Moreover, we will move him directly to the clean room,” the doctor said.
“Alright. How long would he be staying in the clean room?”
“Around three to five days. He can leave once his surgical wounds heal enough.”
“Is this going to be the last surgery?”
“In terms of major ones, yes. Now, it depends on the patient’s acceptance of his new face, though that requires delicacy,” the doctor explained.
“Thank you doctor.” Jay was awash with gratitude.
“It’s our responsibility,” the doctor said before sending them off.
Zoe reluctantly followed Jay.
It took her so much to muster her courage to come all the way here, but she never found out who Jay came to visit every day!
She was still sulking in the car from frustration, utterly upset.
Jay began, “Zoe…”
“Don’t talk to me!” she snapped.
Jay pursed his lips but tried to assure her nonetheless.” You’d be surprised to see him.”
“But I didn’t get to see him! Who on earth would my own husband worry so much for?!”
Jay flashed a begrudging smile. “You’ll know when the time comes.”
“When?”
“Didn’t the doctor say three to five days?”
Zoe was speechless.
