Chapter 1373


    "She told my boss that she was willing to allow my boss to continue her rtionship with you, but my


    boss wouldn''t agree to it," said the bodyguard.


    Elliot''s expression froze. "I''ll warn her not to disturb you again."


    He was saying that to Avery.


    "Okay. You should go back and rest!" Avery could see that he was not feeling very well, and it was


    probably because he had not slept much the previous night.


    Elliot nodded. "Let me know when you are nning to have your surgery."


    "Okay."


    After Elliot and Aaron left, Avery ate a few bites of food and set her utensils down. "Why aren''t you


    eating?" The bodyguard saw that she had not eaten much porridge.


    "I don''t have an appetite." She touched her stomach. "Maybe I''m a little nervous


    because I''m about to go under the knife."


    "It''s fine." Jed gave her some milk. "You''ll be better once the operation is over."


    "Okay. What other tests are going to be done today?" She took a sip of milk.


    Jed exined the different tests that he would have to run on her.


    She frowned slightly as she heard him go through the tests he wanted to run on her." Is it really


    necessary to do another imaging?"


    "The thrombosis has spread, and the tumor has grown," Jed said. "Better to be on the safe side and do


    it again."


    "Fine! The area where the anesthetic was administeredst time still hurts slightly!"


    "In that case, once today''s examination is over, you can rest for another two days before the surgery."


    "I''d much rather have it done as soon as possible! The longer this drags on, the more anxious I''ll feel."


    She put down the cup of milk, feeling somewhat uneasy." Maybe I should write that goodbye letter?"

    Jed was speechless.


    The bodyguard burst outughing." Hahahaha! Do you know why she''s like this, Jed? I lied to Elliotst


    night! I told him that she had written a goodbye letter because the surgery had a high failure rate!


    "Are you making fun of my medical skills?" "I just wanted to see if Elliot cares about my boss."


    "But you scared both Elliot =f”:YNR: Avery."


    His cell phone rang moments after he ended his sentence.


    After looking at the caller ID, he said to Avery and the bodyguard, "I''ll have to take this call."


    He walked outside and answered it.


    "Dr. Hutchinson, I''m already at the hospital. " Ruby was the caller.


    Jed''s heart began beating violently.


    He hesitated and started to panic.


    He asked himself if he genuinely wanted to do it, whether he should do it, and whether he could ept


    the consequences of doing so.


    His phone rang again, and he nced at it to see that it was a call from his girlfriend.


    He muted Ruby and answered his girlfriend''s call.


    The call ended with a beeping.


    Jed took a deep breath and switched back to Ruby''s call. "Miss Gould, will you promise to treat the


    child well if I hand it to you?"
