Love at first sight novel (Judith Cooper) novel Chapter 1698

Chapter 1698

Serenity supported Mrs. Lewis and brought her to sit on a chair nearby.

“Duncan doesn’t want to meet anybody. If he doesn’t communicate, bottling his emotions and driving himself into a dead end, then how can he recover?” Mrs. Lewis wiped her tears. She apologized to the York brothers, “Zack, Callum, don’t blame Duncan. He refuses to see anyone now. He wouldn’t even meet his brothers when they came and stopped them from entering the ward.

“His sisters–in–law would bring some nutritious stew over. While the stew could enter the ward, his sisters- in–law were not allowed. He thinks everyone he sees pities him. Even if it’s just a word of concern, he’ll think the same.”

Mrs. Lewis’s tears were unstoppable.

Her youngest son had always given her the impression that he was strong.

She did not know what to do about his mental breakdown.

The Lewis family’s elders had visited, but Duncan would not listen to anything. He even refused to meet his best friends, Zachary and Josh. He did not even pick up their calls or reply to their messages.

Duncan had completely locked himself in his pessimistic world.

When could he recover if that continued?

After a moment of silence, Zachary said, “Mrs. Lewis, can Duncan go out in a wheelchair now? You can push him out for a walk when you’re free. He must feel bored after lying on the bed for over ten days. Maybe pushing him out on a stroll and relaxing can improve his mood.

“We can’t let him continue in this breakdown. It’ll ruin the rest of his life. He can only get better if we change his mindset and regain his confidence in life.”

Mrs. Lewis sighed. “He’ll feel excruciating pain even with the slightest movements of his legs. He can sit in a wheelchair, but he’ll think he’s useless when we move him onto the wheelchair because he can’t even

sit on one himself.

“He holds a strong rejection toward sitting in a wheelchair too. He was saying something like being a cripple and having to be wheelchair–bound for the rest of his life.”

Zachary opened his mouth but did not know what to say for a moment.

As Duncan’s best friend, Zachary had already done many things. He would free up time to send messages to Duncan and call him. He wanted to encourage him, but there was no response. Duncan did not reply to

him at all.
