Chapter 248


    "Alright." Jenna obediently handed her phone to William. "Here you go, William."


    "Thank you, Jenna."


    The screen now showed William.


    "Sherilyn."


    "Dr. William, about Jenna’s surgery..."


    "I was just about to discuss that with you. If all goes well, Jenna''s surgery should be scheduled for a


    month from now, less than two months away."


    William exined, "We''ll set the exact date a week before the surgery, and I''ll notify you


    immediately. Make sure your arrangements are in ce. You''ll being back, right?"


    "Yes! Of course!"


    Sherilyn''s eyes instantly brimmed with tears, "So, in less than two months, Jenna will, she''ll..."


    Overwhelmed, she found herself at a loss for words.


    "Yes."


    William understood her emotions and spoke for her, "In less than two months, Jenna will have her


    surgery, and afterward, she''ll be just like any other kid."


    "Oh my god..." Suddenly, Sherilyn covered her mouth as her vision blurred with tears.


    "Thank you, thank you so much, Dr. William."


    ...


    After wrapping up, Sherilyn left the studio and received a call from Edgar.


    "Hey, Sherilyn?"


    It was a bit noisy on the other end. Edgar raised his voice. "You have a night shoot tonight? Are you


    done? I''m actually passing by the studio and thought I might pick you up."


    It wasn''t exactly a detour for him.


    But since Sherilyn hadn''t epted him yet, he tried to y it cool.


    "You''re at the studio?"


    Sherilyn looked around, standing in ce. "I''m right at the entrance, but I can''t see you. Where are


    you?"


    "I see you. Just stay there."

    "Okay."


    In no time, Edgar''s car pulled up in front of Sherilyn.


    He got out of the car and walked over to her.


    "Edgar!"


    Tonight, Sherilyn was in a particrly good mood. Her professional life had taken a positive turn,


    and Jenna''s surgery was scheduled!


    After so many years, her life was finally blooming with hope.


    Seeing her smiling face, Edgar couldn''t help but smile too. "You seem very happy today?"


    "Yeah, I am!" Sherilyn nced at him. "Edgar, thank you."


    "Thank me? What did I do?"


    "Have you forgotten?" Sherilyn pursed her lips, her smile unfading. "Last time, didn''t you ask


    Derek''s mom to speak to Ms. Hansen on my behalf?"


    "Oh, that."


    Edgar nodded slowly, a bit lost in thought, "But, that didn’t really..."


    "It worked!" Sherilynughed. "Ms. Hansen came to see me tonight! She told me toe back to


    the dancepany tomorrow!"


    "Really?"


    Edgar was genuinely surprised and happy for her, "That''s indeed great news, worth celebrating.


    But..."


    He was unsure, "At the time, Derek said his mom couldn’t convince Ms. Hansen..."


    "Huh?"


    Sherilyn was momentarily puzzled, "You mean, it wasn''t Mrs. Brooks who helped?"


    She shook her head, "But who else could have convinced Ms. Hansen?"


    Indeed.


    Edgar didn''t want to take credit, "Anyway, it wasn''t my doing—I''ll make sure to thank Derek properly


    when I see him."


    "Yeah!"


    Sherilyn nodded with a smile, "Thank him, thank Mrs. Brooks, and thank you too. I couldn''t have


    talked to Derek on my own."


    She earnestly added, "Thank you, Edgar."


    Overjoyed, she turned and pointed in a direction. "Are you hungry? Let me treat you to somete-


    night food, how about it?"
