There were several doctors gathered around Lily’s bed to examine her physical condition with various instruments in the ward.
Natan stood next to Casey and cried with joy. It was obvious that Lily’s wake-up made him very excited.
“Doctor Austin is an excellent doctor. He said my daughter would wake up within a week. Lily did wake up in a week. Although it was a few hours late, it doesn’t matter. I will buy a present for Doctor Austin to thank him for saving my daughter.” Natan stared at Casey and said.
Natan’s forehead knotted in a frown at this time. He was staring at Lily who was being examined in the bed. There were mixed feelings in his heart.
At that time, Lily suddenly woke up, which made him extremely excited, so he promised that he would agree with any request of Lily.
Given Lily’s condition, he didn’t think too much. But then he realized it and he suddenly felt regretted, because Lily probably asked him to be with her.
He was a little uneasy. He was afraid that Lily would request him to be with her, and he could not refuse because he had promised that he would accept her any request. If he refused her, it might affect her condition. By that time, it would be too late for him to regret it.
Fortunately, after Lily remained in a stable condition, she didn’t make those requests that Casey thought before, which made Casey feel relieved.
But now the request put forward by Lily still made Casey embarrassed. And the request was only a little better than those requests that Casey thought of.
After a while, the doctors finished examining Lily, and one of them came up and smiled and said to Natan, “Mr. Lowe, your daughter is in a stable condition now, but she is a little malnourished. She needs a nutrition supplement. Then she will be fine. It is a miracle that your daughter could wake up.”
Natan nodded to the doctor and he said, “Thanks to Doctor Austin. Well, since my daughter is in stable condition now, you could go back to take a good rest first. If there is any problem, I will call you again. You have looked after my daughter for so long. I will offer you a generous reward as compensation in a few days and send you to travel for some time.”
These doctors lit up with pleasure immediately when they heard what Natan said. After expressing their gratitude to Natan, they left the ward.
Casey and Natan walked to the bed and stared at Lily lying on it. Natan was happy and he said, “Lily, what do you want to eat? Dad will buy it for you. No matter what you want to eat, I can buy it for you.”
“I want to eat the dragon meat, you go to buy it,” Lily said.
Natan smiled awkwardly and said, “Lily, don’t be joking. I am serious. You just woke up and have to eat something to recover your health.”
“As you like, I want to be alone with Casey. You go to buy something now and you’d better come back tomorrow morning,” Lily said.
Natan turned to look at Casey then nodded thoughtfully and said with a smile, “OK, you can talk first, and I’ll find someone to cook something for you.”
Then he turned to leave the ward to get some delicious food for Lily.
Although it had already passed two o’clock in the morning, it was still easy for Natan to find a chef to cook something for Lily.
After Natan left, Lily looked at Casey and said, “Bring me a mirror.”
“Why do you want the mirror?” Casey asked.
Lily said, “I want to see what I look like now.”
