When Her "Death" Couldn't Break Him Novel

Chapter 910 A Chance To Restore Your Eyesight

When Nathaniel woke up, he moved his hand slightly and realized someone had been holding onto him all this time.

Immediately, Cecilia opened her eyes. “Nathaniel, are you awake?”

Upon hearing her voice, Nathaniel tightened his grip on her hand.

“Yes. It feels like I’ve slept for a long time.”

Cecilia moved toward him, her now free hand embracing him. “You were almost dead. It wasn’t just falling asleep.”

He had injured an artery. Cecilia could still vividly remember the particularly horrifying sight of blood.

When she embraced Nathaniel, his body stiffened.

He slowly raised his hand, gently patting Cecilia’s back. “It’s okay, aren’t I better now?”

Cecilia held him even tighter. As she buried her entire face into his chest, her tears soaked his clothes.

His heart clenched. “Don’t cry.”

Cecilia took a deep breath. “I wasn’t crying.”

“Are you hungry now?” After posing the question, Cecilia lifted her gaze to meet his. “Right, you just woke up. We should have Zachary check on you.”

Before Nathaniel could even refuse, Cecilia quickly rose from the bed. She walked to the door and instructed the bodyguards, “Call Dr. Sinclair over.”

That day, Zachary also stayed at the hospital, making it convenient for him to check on Nathaniel’s condition at any time.

Upon learning that Nathaniel had awakened, he hurried over immediately.

While Zachary was examining Nathaniel, Cecilia and the others stood waiting outside.

“Fortunately, the bleeding has completely stopped,” Zachary stated.

Nathaniel was somewhat taken aback. “You performed the surgery on me?”

Zachary sat down and replied, “Nathaniel, do you doubt my abilities? Let me tell you, I’ve uncovered something important. This can be the root cause of your blindness and your frequent memory loss.”

Nathaniel instantly grew tense.

“What is it?”

“After your car accident back then, didn’t you get shards of glass lodged in your skull? This time, while I was stitching up the same area, I carefully examined your brain CT and discovered a piece of glass pressing against your optical nerve.”

bleeding, so I had to prioritize stopping the bleeding. Moreover, I wasn’t quite sure about the exact location of the fragment, so I didn’t dare to remove it recklessly,” he confessed.

Nathaniel’s eyes narrowed slightly. “So you’re saying, if that shard is removed, there’s a chance my sight can be restored?”

“Indeed, there’s a ninety per cent chance. After all, your eyes weren’t injured. You shouldn’t be blind in the first place,” Zachary responded.

In a way, Nathaniel’s injury turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

Had it not been for the injury to his brain, and had it not been for Zachary performing the surgery, he might have remained unaware of the matter.

“Don’t tell anyone about this matter yet.”

“Understood.”

Zachary was aware that such matters held no guarantees. If he told others prematurely and then his eyes didn’t recover, wouldn’t it all be a false celebration?

Moreover, if there was indeed a chance for his eyesight to recover, his rivals would undoubtedly try to sabotage him before it could happen.

Wasn’t it just like that with Ethan this time? He seized the opportunity to kill Nathaniel when he was blind.

The door to the ward swung open once more. Zachary informed Cecilia that Nathaniel was now out of danger.

Cecilia felt relieved.

When she returned to the ward once again, Nathaniel patted the spot next to him and said, “Come, sit beside me.”

Cecilia approached and took a seat next to him.

Nathaniel was close enough to hold her. He couldn’t help but ask, “Who is more important to you right now, me or Calvin? Also, when you compare me to Nicholas, who do you feel more drawn to, him or me?”
