Chapter 1591
Henry didn’t suffer any serious after-effects, and he had made a good recovery. He should be able to leave the hospital after some more rest and recuperation.
When Stella entered, Henry quickly asked his parents, who were by his bedside, to leave. After glancing at Stella, his parents got up and left.
Stella walked over and sat down in front of Henry’s bed. “How are you today? Can you move your hand?”
Henry nodded and looked at Stella with gentle eyes. “My hand can recover to normal. Don’t worry…”
Stella held Henry’s hand and checked it. Seeing that it had recovered well, she replied, “You can recover, but you probably
won’t be able to perform surgeries in the future.”
Henry didn’t mind. “I’ve been working at the Knight’
pharmaceutical company for a while and I’ve realized that
I’m more interested in the field of medicine than performing
surgeries.”
Stella still felt a bit regretful. “You’re an excellent surgeon. It’s a pity to lose the opportunity to operate.”
At these words, a faint smile appeared in Henry’s eyes. “Being
a doctor, whether it’s developing drugs, performing surgeries, or helping patients with rehabilitation, it’s all about healing and saving lives. As long as we can save people, there is nothing to
regret.”
The last sentence fell into Stella’s ears, pulling her back to the past
as if something had grabbed her, leaving her standing there…
Eric, who was only eighteen years old, once said the same thing.
At that time, he stood with his hands in his pockets, leaning
against the escalator, listening quietly to the Sinclair pack discussing his career direction…
His grandfather said Eric shouldn’t waste his talent and must
become a doctor. Thomas, on the other hand, said Eric was the talent needed in the finance industry and must pursue a career in
finance. The father and son argued fiercely about this, and in the
end, Eric’s grandfather couldn’t convince Thomas and became
very angry.
Eric comforted his grandfather, saying, “No matter what industry
I work in, I can heal and save people. As long as we can save
people, there is nothing to regret.”
It was because Eric promised Thomas that he studied finance
in college. Thomas then decided to let Eric become the heir and
formally enter the Sinclair pack’s business field after graduating from university.
Unfortunately, before Eric could graduate from college, he
committed an unforgivable mistake while still in high school. He violated her and faced the resistance of everyone in the Sinclair pack, losing his qualification as the heir.
If it weren’t for that incident, Eric wouldn’t have inherited his
grandfather’s profession and chosen to become a doctor. Instead,
he would have become an elite in the finance industry, leading the
Sinclair pack to great success in the business world.
Stella comforted herself, saying that Eric’s downfall was his own
doing and had nothing to do with her. When Henry asked her
what was wrong, she gently shook her head, saying, “I’m fine, just
tired. Sometimes I space out.”
Henry stared at Stella’s face, trying to read any signs of change in her expression, but she remained calm as if Eric’s death hadn’t
affected her at all.
After contemplating Stella for a moment, Henry asked, “Stella,
I told you before that once we sent Eric to prison, we could be together again. Now that he’s dead, there’s no longer any
obstacle between us. Can we start over?”
Henry hadn’t forced Stella, but he believed that Eric was the one standing in their way of being together. He wanted to send Eric to prison first, to protect Stella from harm and to be able to restart their relationship. However, he never expected things to escalate
to the point of someone’s death.
Henry felt that it was inappropriate to ask about getting back
together at this time, but his selfishness made him blurt it out.
He had a feeling that something was quietly changing after Enc’s
death, but he couldn’t quite grasp it.
