Chapter 350 It’ll Be Over Before You Know It!
Gilbert frowned, looking at Zachary’s medical report. Bettany mentioned that he fell from the second
floor five years ago, so he suspected that he had an aneurysm. He then said, “Let’s conduct an MRI
scan for
him.
People usually omit the early stage of an aneurysm. It could be seen that the child would sleep
excessively, their skulls might be enlarged, and they might even have seizures.
He had always thought that Zachary was no different from normal children, and he felt that it was his
fault for not realizing it. He was always talking back before Lilly came; Mr. Crawford and Old Mrs.
Crawford were always angry with his attitude. If I really think about it, Zachary always ignores everyone
when they talk with him, and we always think that he’s talking back to us. But it seems like he was
having a slow reaction back then.
Bettany asked worriedly, “Is it severe?”
Gilbert answered, “It’s not the worst case, but it’s affecting him too. But it’s recommended for him to
undergo surgery to clear it as soon as possible.
Josh asked, “Do you mean you have to cut his skull open?”
Gilbert nodded, and he explained to them Zachary’s symptoms and conditions. Bettany informed.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇteveryone about it in their family group chat, where Zachary had to undergo more check-ups and Gilbert
would be arranging for him to be hospitalized. It was hard to reserve a spot in the government hospital,
but luckily Gilbert managed to secure a bed for Zachary the following week. She brought the children
back home by car. Suddenly, Zachary asked inside the car, “Must my skull be opened?”
Bettany was stunned. So he’s been thinking about it all along!
Lilly patted his hand and comforted him by saying, “Zac, it’s alright. It’s just one cut! It’ll be over before
you know it.”
Pablo was speechless after hearing her words. It’s just on cut? Why does it sound so weird when Lilly
says it?
Everyone was discussing Zachary’s conditions throughout the day, and they tried to comfort him and
prepare him for the surgery. But he looked indifferent; they did not know if he listened to what they said
or not.
Meanwhile, Drake was lying on the bed the entire day, and he was displeased as he did not get the
sweet from Lilly!
During the weekend, Gilbert brought Lilly out to Huxley’s house to eat. Josh wanted to tag along, but he
was rejected. He could only see Gilbert’s car drive off at the end of the road.
Drake snorted, “You’re ridiculous! Don’t act like they’re not coming back tonight; why did you have to
see
them off?”
Josh stared at him and replied, “Then why are you here too?”
Drake turned around and walked back to the house, and he said, “I’m just passing by.”
Josh caught up to him, and he asked mockingly, “Drake, don’t you think that whatever you said sounds
familiar?”
Drake wanted to say something, but he suddenly recalled the time when Josh pretended to get water
and passed by Lilly’s room. He still had the footage on his phone! He did not expect himself to use the
same lame excuse as Josh back then! He felt embarrassed, snorted, and went back to the house.
Josh said triumphantly to taunt him, “Lilly had three sweets yesterday. She gave one to Zac to cheer
him
for the checkup. She ate one herself. And did you know who got the last piece? He, he, it’s me! Ha, the
sweetness is so nice!” He seemed so immersed in recalling what happened.
up
Drake suppressed his anger, trying his best not to beat Josh. He said coldly, “It’s just a sweet; who
cares about it?” I don’t give a damn about it! He snorted again and went back to his room.
Josh raised his voice and said, “Yes, it’s just a piece of sweet. I wonder who was the one staring at
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZac’s mouth yesterday. Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!”
Drake slammed the door; Josh was satisfied with his reaction!
Huxley’s relatives had already arrived when Gilbert and Lilly arrived. His house was located in a village
near the city; the village actually looked decent. Most of the villagers actually built their own houses;
Huxley’s house was a two-level house. There were people sitting in the living room as well as at the
entrance. Everyone welcomed them upon their arrival, Lilly’s hands were full of sweets, and her
pockets were full too. Wow, I like it here!
Huxley was surprised to see them coming, and he introduced them to his relatives, most of whom were
his brothers and sisters. “Dr. Gilbert, please have a seat We’re going to eat soon!” Ruby was wearing
an apron, and she gave Lilly a drumstick, as she said. There were a few more children inside the living
room, but most of them were watching animation on their phones. And they were chit-chatting too.
Pablo was standing at the side, and he commented, “Their family seems to be united; it’s just
unfortunate that someone from their family is a villain. But, luckily that someone was just a cousin to
them.” He remembered that the karma spirit possessed Ruby’s cousin-in-law.
Lilly nodded, and she said blurry with biscuits stuffed side her mouth, “Master, look at him!” A white car
pulled over at the entrance, and a man with a spirit on his head got down from the car. He was wearing
a checkered shirt with a golden watch, and he walked in style.
“Wow, everyone is here! Dr. Gilbert is here too! The man passionately greeted Gilbert, and he urged
Ruby by saying, “Is it time to eat now? We should have come over early to help out, but your cousin
was taking so long to get ready! Ruby, ask her to help you out if you need anything now!”
