SWNOVELS Chapter 10
Chapter 10
After Keith gave Henry an emergency treatment, Henry got his life back for now.
Keith asked Vanessa to do the transfer procedure to move Henry to traditional medicine hospital where he worked. He would personally give Henry emergency treatments every day.
Once Vanessa heard that Keith would treat Henry personally, she was so excited that she immediately proceeded to do the billing procedures.
Keith called William to the door of the ward and whispered the truth to William that Vanessa’s father did not have much time left.
Henry was so sick that he could not be cured.
Henry might still live for half a month if it went well, but if it did not go well, he might die in about a week.
William sighed lightly and asked Keith to arrange for Danny to be fitted with cochlear implants as soon as possible.
He looked over at Danny.
Danny, who was 15 years old and already a big boy, stood guard at the hospital bed, his eyes red and completely oblivious to what they were saying.
Keith also looked at Danny. After withdrawing his gaze, he said, “After passing the physical evaluation, he can have the cochlear implants surgery tomorrow. After the implantation, we have to keep debugging and maintaining. He’ll be able to hear the outside world when we turn on the cochlear implants in about a month or so. After that, he needs to have language training.”
“Better yet, let Mr. Sanchez see that Danny can hear,” William said.
After Danny could hear the outside world, he could have simple language training. Even if he could only utter “Dad,” Henry
would feel at ease before he died.
Keith nodded. “Okay, I’ll arrange it as soon as possible. I’ll arrange it immediately after they are transferred to Caritas Private Hospital.”
“Mmm” William nodded his head.
Just in time, Vanessa finished the billing procedures and came over with a few sheets.
Seeing William standing at the door, she said, “It’s noon. How about you guys go
“Let’s go together,” William said.
Vanessa shook her head and said, “I won’t go. I’m not hungry.”
eat something first?”
Seeing her father in such a situation, she had no appetite. Also, she was not very reassured and dared not leave her father in the ward. She was afraid that if she left, her father would be gone.
In that case, she would lose the chance to see her father until his last moment.
“You must eat to stay energetic to care for your Dad and Danny. By the way, we will make Danny have the cochlear implants surgery tomorrow,” William said.
“No, I can’t spend any more of your money,” Vanessa said in a hurry.
William looked at Vanessa and reached out, his thumb lightly wiping the dark eye circles under her eyes from staying up late and worrying. “We’re married. What’s mine is yours. We’ll spend my money first, and we’ll work hard to earn money together in the future.”
“But…”
“No more worries. The sooner Danny gets the cochlear implants, the better. It’s good for Danny and also your Dad.” William’s voice was soft. He glanced in the direction of the hospital bed again to tell Vanessa by his eyes that her father would want to see Danny get cochlear implants, too.
“Okay, we’ll earn money together in the future.” Vanessa agreed with a grit of her teeth.
She wanted to wait for her father’s situation to stabilize a little before trying to continue with more design drawings and work as a tutor for more families. She could sleep less at night if possible. She was still young and had the energy to work hard.
“Come on. Let’s go eat first,” William said.
Seeing Vanessa look at Henry, William instantly understood. He instructed Keith, “Order some food to send here.”
When Keith took out his phone and was about to order food, his phone rang. It was someone from Caritas Private Hospital’s call. They had come to pick up the patients.
He asked them to come to the ward.
Chapter 10
Hanging up the phone, Keith said, “Let’s go to eat working meals at Caritas Private Hospital.”
Caritas Private Hospital was the most famous private hospital in Lantric City and was also Keith’s personal property. Although he was always traveling, Caritas Private Hospital had a good reputation.
That was because he poached many doctors.
Especially those who were good at medicine but were not highly valued in official hospitals and were suppressed by some experienced quacks.
“Okay,” William answered.
Soon, a few medics arrived, carrying a stretcher.
After putting Henry on the stretcher, the group headed downstairs to Caritas Private Hospital.
After arriving at Caritas Private Hospital, Keith made the arrangements in person.
He put Henry in a ward and arranged for a doctor to give Henry an intravenous drip.
He also arranged for a team of otolaryngological department specialists to do a pre–operative examination on Danny.
The hospital canteen brought the meal to Henry’s ward.
Keith talked to Vanessa about Danny’s condition while they were eating.
After the examination that day, the surgery would be done the next morning. One month after the surgery, Danny would be able to hear when the cochlear implants were turned on, and then the debugging would continue. At that time, the hospital, Danny’s family, and Danny himself would cooperate with each other to try to make him adapt sooner.
Vanessa cried with excitement at the prospect of Danny hearing the outside world soon and being able to speak normally like ordinary people. “Thank you, Keith. Thank you.”
“My pleasure. We’re friends, and we should help each other. I’ll handle Danny’s surgery personally.” The more Keith looked at Vanessa, the more he liked Vanessa.
He felt there was nothing wrong with Vanessa except that she was from a poor background.
She was beautiful, kind, affectionate, and grateful….
She was far superior to Tracy.
“Thank you!” Vanessa didn’t know what else to say other than expressing her gratitude.
William helped to serve her dishes. “You should eat more. You need to stay energetic.”
“Okay.” Vanessa watched her father quietly receiving the infusion, and she tried to eat a little more.
She needed to stay energic to take care of her father and brother.
After four o’clock in the afternoon, all of Danny’s examinations were over.
Keith asked Vanessa to accompany Danny to the downstairs lawn to bask in the sun and relax. He also asked Vanessa to tell Danny not to be afraid because the surgery was easy.
Knowing that Vanessa was uneasy about her father, William promised to stay and take care of her father.,
Keith also told her that her father’s condition was stable and would get better.
Vanessa was relieved and took Danny downstairs to get some sun.
The environment of Caritas Private Hospital was very nice, and many people were soaking in the sun at this moment.
The green lawn was neatly manicured, and some children were running and playing around,
There were also children in the same situation as Danny, with cochlear implants, who were babbling and actively learning to talk.
Around five o’clock, when Vanessa was about to take Danny back to the ward, her phone rang. She answered it.
Elena’s cursed voice came from the other end of the line. “Vanessa, are you scared? You don’t dare to come? You’re a coward, a big chicken.”
Vanessa’s mood finally calmed down today. The moment she heard Elena’s voice, her anger surged wildly. As soon as she thought about what happened to her father from yesterday to today and her father almost died, she couldn’t help but want to kill Elena. Her face suddenly sank, and she said coldly, “I have something to do today. We will meet at Ocean Cafe on South Loop Road tomorrow afternoon at five o’clock.”
“Who are you to set the place? We will meet at Coain Cafe tomorrow afternoon at three o’clock.” Elena hung up the phone directly after she finished speaking.
Vanessa’s chest was still heaving.
She must go see Elena once!
“Vanessa, what’s wrong?” Seeing his sister in a bad mood, Danny was full of concern. He asked in sign language.
Phew…
Vanessa exhaled and quickly adjusted her emotions, using sign language to appease Danny. “Nothing, just some work matters. It’s not important. Come on. It’s getting late, and it’s a bit cold. Let’s go back to the ward.”
