CHAPTER 2302

In the orthopedics department of a hospital in Merchant City.

"Mr.Landry, according to the x-ray, the laceration on your brother's hand is extremely deep and has

penetrated down to the bone.If you look here, you'll see a jagged edge of the wound...

"My suggestion is to let him undergo surgery immediately, and hopefully, he'll be able to recover soon."

A twinge of pain shot through Jim's heart as he listened to the doctor's explanation, clutching the x-ray

film of Sean's hands.

"Will he be able to regain the function of his hands after the surgery? Well, I mean..."

He fell silent for a moment before finally finishing his sentence.

"Will he be able to use his hands for work again?"

The doctor paused for a moment, then asked out of curiosity, "Mr.Landry, may I know what your brother

works as?"

Jim furrowed his brows, glancing at the x-ray in his hand.

"He's a driver and car mechanic."

A glimmer of surprise flashed through the doctor's eyes.

"Pardon me, Mr.Landry.Your brother is a driver and car mechanic?"

The shocked look on the doctor's face made Jim a little uneasy. This belongs to : ©.

"What's wrong with that?"

The doctor broke out into an awkward smile, sensing the irritation in Jim's tone.

"No, there's nothing wrong with that.I was just surprised why your brother would do manual labor like

this...

"Nevertheless, since he's a mechanic, his injury won't affect his work much in the future.He'll be able to

regain function of his hands quite well, provided that he doesn't engage in too much work that requires

fine motor skills of his hands and fingers."

Jim finally let out a sigh of relief, then thanked the doctor and returned to the ward.

Inside the room, Sean's hands were wrapped in thick layers of bandages, making them look like

gigantic bear paws.

At this moment, he was leaning against the headboard, watching television.

The channel was playing news of Jim and Bonnie's wedding, and even though Sean was staring

straight at the screen, his gaze seemed to penetrate past the TV and fixate on somewhere far, far

away.

Jim let out a sigh when he saw this, then turned off the TV.It took a few minutes for Sean to realize that

the image EDm'AnMI audio from the television had disappeared.

He snapped back to reality, then forced out a smile and asked in a hoarse voice, "So what did the

doctor say? Do I really have to go through surgery?"

"Yes."

Jim put down the film, sat on the edge of Sean's bed, and began peeling an orange.

"The doctor said that your wound has penetrated your bone, and if they don't attach the severed blood

vessels and tissue back together, you might lose both your hands."

He lifted his head to stare at Sean's face.

"You suffered this injury because of me, and I should be obliged to take care of you until you get better,

but...

"I'm sure you know the situation I'm in right now.Bonnie is still in her coma, and she doesn't have much

time left, so I'm sorry, but I can only stay with you until you come out of surgery."

He let out a sigh and continued, "In six days, after I've settled everything with Bonnie, I promise I'll

return to take good care of you, at least until you recover fully."

There was a glimmer of sadness in Sean's bloodshot eyes when he heard this.He bit his lip and was

silent for a long time before finally lifting his head to meet Jim's gaze.

"Bonnie...Is she really going to die?"

Jim let out a bitter chuckle and closed his eyes.

"Initially, she'd have more time to live.”

"According to Mother, Christopher might be able to come up with an antidote for her.I'm not sure how

much you know about Christopher, but even though he's not mentally stable right now..."
