His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 867

Avery could not slip away and had no choice but to let Mike return to Aryadelle with the twins first.

Adrian's family was not happy with his post-surgery condition, but at least they did not give Avery a hard time about it.

Both parties signed an agreement before the surgery. Avery would treat Adrian's illness, but she could not guarantee that the surgery would be a complete success.

Three days after the surgery, Avery's phone rang at noon.

Once she heard the phone ringing, she quickly wrapped up changing Robert's diaper, then picked up her phone and answered the call.

"Adrian's awake, Doctor Tate. He can hear us this time and he’s responding."

Adrian's father, Nathan, was the one on the other line.

Avery suddenly felt relieved, "I'll head over to the hospital right away."

She hung up the phone, then handed the baby to Mrs. Cooper.

Once she arrived at the hospital, she hurried over to the patient's room.

"He went back to sleep again, Doctor Tate," Nathan said in confusion with furrowed brows. "Is he still weak from the surgery? He isn't just going to be unconscious this whole time, is he? If that's the case, then he was better off before the surgery!" "You've never had major surgery before, have you? The week after a major surgery is when the patient is at their weakest," Avery said sternly.

"I see. Don't get mad, Doctor Tate. I'm not doubting you. I just feel like he's still kind of an idiot." Nathan rubs his hands together. He was clearly unhappy with the post-op results.

Avery's heart tightened in her chest.

"Please step outside for a moment. Let's have a private chat."

Once the two of them stepped out of the room, Avery said, "My last patient had the same illness as Adrian. She was only able to recover to the point of being able to care for herself again until after the second surgery. It also did not happen right away. She slowly recovered with the patience, love and care from her family members. I know you're worried about Adrian, but can you not treat him like an idiot? I can tell you for certain that it's practically impossible that he will turn back into an ordinary person.

When a nurse walked by

The reason why her eyes reddened earlier had nothing to do with the surgery, but that she actually heard Elliot's voice in Nathan.

In her mind, Elliot and the middle-aged man in front of her were gradually overlapping and turning into the same person.

She imagined that Elliot was the one chastising her, which was why she lost control of her emotions for a moment.

Soon after, the nurse walked into the room and handed Avery a glass of water.

"Don't take Mr. White's words to heart, Doctor Tate. He doesn’t really care about his son at all. I should probably say that nobody in that family cares about Adrian. The nurses are the one who take care of him every day. We were the ones who called them over when Adrian woke up." The nurse's words made Avery’s heart sink.

Nathan had continuously told her that he loved this son more than anything.

However, it was clear from his actions today that everything he said before was a lie!
