Chapter 1721
Anthony's eyes dulled upon receiving Cabbage's email, and he could practically feel his heart sinking.
'Side effects'? 'More severe'?
Why did this happen?
He had just grown hopeful, anticipating how he would rekindle his relationship with Charmine once he recovered.
Alas, it seemed that there was no chance to be with her.
Charmine had just started walking out of the negative impact he had inflicted. What harm would he cause her if he left her again? Anthony's gaze darkened with bitterness as he recalled how Charmine had once cut him off before.
Amid his thoughts, Anthony's phone rang. Lowering his gaze, he noticed that it was Nial calling.
"What is it?” he spoke upon answering the call.
"Bro, my research with the international professors finally has results!” came Nial's excited response on the other end. "We have a daring proposal, I don't know if you're willing to try it." i
"Is that so?" replied Anthony, his interest piqued. 'Tell me!"
He would not give up on any chance of recovery.
Nial said, "Amnesia is caused by damage inflicted upon the hippocampus. If we have a craniotomy and insert a high- tech man-made hippocampus, your complication may be treated. Nonetheless, this is a very risky surgery, and the chances of failure are as high as eighty percent. If we succeed, the effect will last forever. If we fail, you may end up paralyzed...or even dead."
Anthony clenched his phone tightly and narrowed his eyes.
A failure rate as high as 80-percent, was it?
There was a 20-percent chance of success, regardless.
Anthony looked out the window and at the beautiful bamboo house. He seemed to have made a decision as he answered, "Have it prepared, then. I’ll go tomorrow."
Forget 20-percent; he would still undergo the operation even if the success rate was just one-percent!
Nial nodded. 'Til wait for you then, Bro!"
Anthony hung up and leaned on the sofa with his eyes shut. His face was solemn.
