Chapter 1159


    “Indeed,” Arabe responded assertively. "Given the current state of medical science, that seems to be


    the case.


    But who knows what advancements the next few decades might bring."


    Tears once again streamed down Celeste''s face. Without hands, without legs, how would her daughter


    y the piano or dance? How could she walk to her loved one or embrace the world?


    If her daughter had to be fed water and spend the rest of her life with a catheter, knowing her


    stubbornness, she would rather die than live like this.


    At that moment, Crystal was wheeled out of the operating room by a nurse. Seeing their daughter


    motionless, lying there on the stretcher with a ghostlyplexion, Celeste and Alger''s brains went


    nk, and their tears flowed unceasingly.


    Arabe watched their departing figures, noticing Romeo''s arrival. She moved toward him, whispering,


    "I''m going to change my clothes first."


    "You''re pale,” Romeo said, concern evident in his voice. This stubborn girl had stood in the operating


    room for a solid eleven hours.


    Without a break, without even a sip of water.


    "Dr. Be.” The female doctor in charge of Carol hurried over. "There''s another patient in critical


    condition that needs your attention."


    Romeo''s eyes darkened. When did his girl be responsible for every patient in this hospital? Was


    she receiving their sry? Had she done them a favor?


    Did she not need food, water, or rest?


    The female doctor was taken aback by Romeo''s imposing demeanor and quickly exined, “It''s a


    patient that Ms. Be knows."


    rk quickly interjected, “Is Carol''s condition worsening?"


    “Let''s let Dr. Be decide first"


    After all, their hospital had formed a team of experts, but none of them had a better idea. In the case of


    Carol''s condition, it was unprecedented not just in their hospital, but globally.


    Only then did Arabe remember, due to the amount of time needed to save Crystal, she had missed


    Carol''s optimal treatment window.


    "I''ll go take a look," she said, striding towards the ICU at the end of the hallway.


    Romeo, still holding breakfast, watched her rush off, his heart aching even more. He hurriedly caught


    up and handed her a warm bottle of milk.


    "Take a few sips first."


    Arabe, not wanting to worry him, drank the contents of the bottle as she walked.


    "Eat something when youe back,’ Romeo instructed.


    “Alright."


    rk followed closely behind Arabe, "I heard from the nurses that eleven hours ago, Crystal couldn''t


    hold on any longer."


    "Yes, but I told her if she died, her parents would tear you limb from limb. She held on to that thought


    and made it this far."


    rk''s eyes reddened further, his quilt towards Crystal deepening.


    "Lalso told her, if she had to go, at least say goodbye to you,’ Arabe said gently. "So, I believe she''ll

    wake up.


    As for whether she can hold on, I can''t guarantee it right now."


    “Be, he said, looking at her with hopeful eyes. "Tell me the truth, what are the chances Crystal will


    pull through?"
