“Yes. I have confidence in the current medical knowledge and technology!” said Winnie while grasping
Josiah’s hand.
“Yes. I have confidence in the current medical knowledge and technology!” said Winnie while grasping
Josiah’s hand.As she said that, she was reassuring herself as well as Josiah.Then she let go of
Xavier’s and Josiah’s hands. “All right. I’m going in for the examination now. Go get busy.”While Winnie
was getting examined, Xavier asked Josiah, “Is what you said true? Or are you only saying that to
comfort her?”Frowning, Josiah said, “It’s true! It’s just that I had just been dumped back then and lost
interest in everything. That’s why I didn’t go deeper into the area of artificial eyes. If my ssmates
have been researching it, there should at least be some progress. It’s been several years since they
started.”A sense of hope rose within Xavier. “That’s great. Hurry up and contact this ssmate of
yours, then. I’ll pay it no matter what the price is.”“I know. I will. Winnie’s my friend, too. I’ll do
everything I can to get in touch with my ssmate, but”—Josiah hesitated momentarily—“we’ve
basically lost contact with this ssmate. It’s going to take some effort to find him.”“It’s fine. We have
time. It doesn’t matter as long as you can find him.” To Xavier, it did not matter if it took several years
as long as Winnie did not have to be blind for the rest of her life.At that point, Josiah had calmed down.
“Okay, but the situation might not be ideal. The subject of making artificial eyes is quite popr. If they
actually created one, there should have been some kind of news about it. Even the Alpha radioactive
gas caught the attention of the terrorists. The topic of artificial eyes should attract even more attention.
It shouldn’t be this quiet.”Xavier responded firmly, “I understand what you mean. Even if there are no
artificial eyes created, we’ll make one on our own. So, go ahead and call that old ssmate of yours.
Whether he made no progress or was forced to stop for some reason, we can take over and continue
with the research. It doesn’t matter if it takes ten, twenty, or even thirty years. I’m willing to pay for all of
it even if I go bankrupt.”Josiah’s lips curled to form a bitter smile. “It shouldn’t cause you to go bankrupt,
but that sentence gave me confidence.”Xavier patted Josiah’s shoulder and prompted, “Hurry up and
call him.”“Okay.” Josiah cast the examination room onest nce before turning around to leave.The
examination results were not promising, but Winnie had already expected that.Xavier, too, had slowly
learned to ept the truth.After all, he was determined not to make Winnie’s blindness a permanent
condition. I’ll definitely find a way to make her see again. That day wille. I’m sure of it!After leaving
the hospital, Winnie returned to the quarantine room.Before the surgery, Winnie had only believed the
sess rate was fifty-fifty despite Xavier and the others telling her how high it was.She had known she
could either stay blind or recover, and each possibility had a fifty percent chance.Thus, she did not tell
the Speiser family about it, not until she had a clear answer.After all, there was a possibility of her
seeing again after the surgery.Now that the surgery had failed, she needed to let the family know about
it.Besides, she needed to seek the Speiser family’s help.The moment she entered the quarantine room,
she grabbed her phone and called Wilhelm to tell him everything. Wilhelm stated he would fly over
immediately to see her upon learning about her situation.Meanwhile, Xavier waited patiently for her to
end the call before saying to her, “I just received news that Lisanne and her colleagues have ended
their quarantine. Winnie, we can go home soon.”“That’s great. Get the medical staff to do the final test
on me. I’m tired of the smell and silence here. I want to go home. Let’s go to Lagune Mansion when we
get out. That ce is huge and filled with birds chirping,” Winnie responded with her eyes closed.“Sure.
I’ll go wherever you want to go.”“Can you apany me to visit Granny? I want to hear her
voice.”“Okay. I’ll do everything you say.”“Really? You’ll do everything I say?”“Of course. Since when do
I not do what you say? You’re the one who doesn’t listen to me, but there’s nothing I can do about
it.”“All right. I’ll listen to you. Don’t be sad and don’t go crying secretly.”“I won’t. A grown man like me
has nothing to cry about. Besides, you’ll onlyugh at me if I do.”“I can’t see now.”“But you’ve got a
good sense of hearing.”“You’re right. I’m incredible.”“You arrogant little rascal. Feeling good about
yourself, eh?”The two exchanged friendly banter. It put Winnie in good spirits because she could feel
Xavier was slowly opening up and not as cautious with his words as before.After some time, Lisanne,
who had been released from istion, walked in hastily. “Winnie, how did it go? Was the surgery a
sess?”Nheless, she knew what the answer was before Winnie could even answer. Lisanne
could tell the surgery had failed.Her expression turned grim, and she fell silent for a few seconds before
saying, “We’ve ended our quarantine. Yours should be ending soon.”“Mm. Xavier told me about it,” said
Winnie while extending her hand to Lisanne.It was an action she used often ever since she lost her
vision.Lisanne quickly stepped forward and took Winnie’s hand.Before she could speak, Winnie’s voice
rang out.“You don’t have to rack your brain tofort me. I’m fine apart from being blind temporarily,”
said Winnie.“All right. I won’t say anything, then.” Lisanne, too, felt awful, for she kept feeling that she
could one day end up like Winnie. Taking a deep breath, she said, “It’s very important that we have an
optimistic attitude. I’m going to Rodunst to look for that scientist after this.”Winnie nodded. “Hopefully,
there’ll be good news.”After all, the red markings on their bodies were not gone. No one knew if their
condition would worsen in the future. Moreover, the two children, who were affected and started having
nosebleeds, needed help.Not long after they bade each other farewell, Winnie was released from
istion.Winnie and Xavier could finally go home.Their car was parked directly in front of Lagune
Mansion entrance.Winnie wanted to get out of the car on her own, but Xavier insisted on going down
first to open the door for her.He even wanted to carry her inside but was refused by Winnie.In the end,
they walked in hand in hand.There were two housekeepers standing at the door of the secondary
vi.The prettier one was a new housekeeper.Her eyes were filled with admiration as she gazed at the
couple at the main mansion entrance.However, the emotion in her eyes began to change, and she
asked the other housekeeper beside her, “Is Mrs. Fairchild really blind? How are they still so
affectionate with each other when she’s blind? Surely Mr. Fairchild will be disgusted and hate her as
time passes?”
