Jay placed Angeline under the care of a nurse in the lounge before returning to the ophthalmologist's ward.
"What is it, doctor?"
Jay, someone who was perceptive of the most minute detail, realized that Angelina's eye disease was not that simple.
The ophthalmologist looked Jay up and down with a meaningful glance, then asked questions that insinuated something else, "I don’t mean to pry, Mr. Ares, but do you share a close relationship with your wife?"
Jay would fly into a rage if others had the audacity to pry into Jay’s private life.
However, the other party was Angelina's doctor, so Jay was exceptionally friendly toward him.
Jay responded in a solemn tone, "Angeline and I are childhood sweethearts. We are very much in love."
"That's weird." The ophthalmologist was puzzled." Your wife lost her vision because she cries too much.
Her condition is further aggravated by her mental disorder.’’
The ophthalmologist opened up Angeline’s retinal imaging, pointed to her sclera, and said, "The sclera
you normally see tends to be normal. But if you look into her eyelids, the red blood streaks are extremely obvious.”
Blood gradually drained from Jay's face...
"Can her eyes heal?"
Unfortunately, what the ophthalmologist said next dashed Jay's hope completely. "If you can find out why she's crying and remove the cause over an extended period of time, coupled with certain eye drops that I will prescribe to her, then I believe that there's still hope for her to regain her vision."
Jay replied in a rough voice, "Okay, I understand now. Thank you."
He stood up with quivering legs and walked out in a downcast manner.
Angeline's loss of vision stemmed from her love and worry for Baby Robbie.
How could she possibly stop crying if Baby Robbie did not return?
She was at risk of a long-term vision loss.
