The Billionaire's True Heiress From Fake Jewel to Real Crown novel Chapter 1737

"Do you actually want your spine fixed or not?"

Claire ignored his question and fired one back.

Lucas couldn't possibly say he didn't want to get better and stand again.

He forced out the words. "I do."

Nobody wanted to live like a pathetic dog.

During the time he had been bedridden, he had endured far too much mockery.

The Charles family descendants were already fractured. As the favored grandson, many of his siblings, aunts, and uncles envied him deeply.

Lucas knew perfectly well that most of them were praying for his death.

The more they wanted him dead, the more determined he was to live and thrive, just to spite them!

"Dr. Claire, whatever treatment you have, no matter what it is, I will push through it!"

"To stand again, I'll pay any price!"

After returning to Solenia, Claire and Tandy didn't bother hiding their identities anymore.

Although they hadn't formally introduced themselves to Lucas, he had heard others addressing them.

Besides, even if no one mentioned it, the government contacts must have explained everything clearly to his grandfather.

Whatever the Patriarch thought, he had to grit his teeth and accept it for now.

After all, they had his precious grandson.

"As long as you're committed."

Claire and Tandy already had seamless teamwork, but preparing for Lucas's surgery would take a few days.

A patient's willingness was one thing, but getting all the specialized medications ready was another.

Claire never fought a battle she wasn't sure she could win.

So, she preferred to delay the surgery and focus on conditioning Lucas's body first.

"Your prolonged fasting has caused severe malnutrition. We'll spend three months nursing you back to health, and then we'll review your vitals."

"Once your stats are stable, we'll proceed with the surgery."

Claire laid out the plan plainly.
