“Relax, he isn’t in critical condition yet. The situation will be under control the moment we find out which drug is affecting his lungs.”
“When can you find it?” Jonathan asked immediately.
After he mulled over the situation, Grayson finally decided to suggest the idea that Jonathan had mentioned a few days earlier.
“According to Sebastian’s condition, I suggest consulting Trevor and his daughter.”
“Trevor?” Jonathan’s eyes widened in disbelief. “Didn’t you advise me that it would be better to avoid any contact? You also mentioned that the pharmaceutical group he operates has several ties with foreign dignitaries. It would be wise not to get involved with him.”
Grayson nodded in agreement. “Yes, but there is no other choice. When it comes to pharmaceutics, there is no one more capable in this country than the father-daughter duo.”
In truth, Grayson wanted to add that he initially disapproved because he thought of Sasha, who was currently undergoing a painful operation herself.
Grayson wanted to avoid putting any more strain on the married couple.
Finally, Jonathan relented and agreed to consult Trevor and Roxanne.
After Jonathan left, Grayson called Sasha immediately.
“Ms. Wand, should we send someone to bring Trevor and his daughter here? We can continue our research-”
“It’s alright.” Unexpectedly, Sasha interjected before Grayson could finish his sentence.
She stood in her ward as she cradled her bandage-wrapped cheek. As if in a daze, Sasha gazed off into the distance. Her lips were deathly pale, and there were tears in her bright eyes.
“I want you to bring them there this instant,” Sasha said.
“But-”
“Dr. Wallen, it’s all right. Nothing could be more important than his precious life. All I want is for him to live a healthy and normal life. It is my only wish,” Sasha replied in a firm tone. Despite her steady voice, she was close to bursting into tears.
What else could be more important than his life? If that woman can save his life, I wouldn’t mind if she moves into the Oceanic Estate or spends every single day by his side. I’m content with that.
With that, Sasha ended the call. For a long time, she remained rooted to the spot like a puppet with its strings cut as she gazed out the window.
She did not move from her spot until the nurse called her to the operating theater.
Macy texted Sebastian: Mr. Hayes, I heard that you are recovering soon. Congratulations on your quick recovery! Make sure you cherish your own life, all right?
