Chapter 656
Once the results were out, Noah looked at the lab report with a stony face.
Howard was taken aback by his serious demeanor and asked, “Noah, say something. How are Elliot’s test results?”
Elliot sat quietly on the hospital bed, waiting for Noah to speak.
Noah remained focused on the lab report for a while.
After some time, he finally said indifferently, “The medication I’ve prescribed recently has been effective in slowing down the virus’s spread. However, I still need to take a scan of his head.”
“That sounds like good news. Noah, when will you show a bit more emotion on your face?” Howard commented, shaking his head in exasperation.
Noah did not respond and left to find Yosef to arrange a head scan for Elliot.
As Noah walked away, Howard murmured, “I can’t help but wonder if there’s any girl that can make you drop this aloof demeanor.”
Just outside the door, Noah heard every word and stopped in his tracks.
For the past six months, a persistent girl had confessed her feelings to him countless times. Due to Elliot’s situation, he had not seen her for almost a week.
She had probably given up and returned to Farlem.
Noah’s gaze turned cold, and he quickly readjusted his focus and strode away.
Another half–hour passed, and Noah returned with Elliot’s brain CT scan.
“He lost his sight because, after the blue serum failed, the virus spread rapidly, causing a tumor to develop in his brain, putting pressure on the central nervous system,” Noah explained.
“A tumor?” Howard was stunned.
Although he was not well–versed in medical matters, he knew that anything related to tumors was not a good sign.
He instinctively glanced at Elliot on the hospital bed.
Noah continued, “It’s benign, just a small tumor. We can remove it through surgery, and with post- operative medication, his eyes should recover.”
Howard breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “Noah, can you please explain everything in one go next time? You scared the hell out of me.”
Hearing the best–case scenario, Elliot finally smiled and teased, “Seems like doctors enjoy scaring their patients.”

Noah ignored their banters, standing by the bedside table and organizing Elliot’s medical records.
Then, he calmly explained the arrangement, “I recommend doing the surgery as soon as possible. Take him to the general hospital in town tomorrow afternoon. I’ll be there earlier for preparation, and we’ll conduct the surgery secretly.”
Howard nodded. “Alright.”
It was nearly 10 p.m. when they left the lab.
The snowfall outside intensified, and Noah held an umbrella to shield them from the snowstorm
while Howard assisted Elliot.
The three hurried toward the outdoor parking lot.

The novel is too abusive it spoils the joy of reading it. I hate the punishment part between sheena and Eliot....
