Chapter 617: A Comforting Kiss
Hees in and suddenly says this, which surprises Lorraine. "What did you say?"
"I say, let''s ept Mr. Ryan''s proposal." Afraid that his mother can''t understand what he means,
Thomas adds, "His proposal of paying for Eunice''s treatment."
A few days ago, Lorraine asked Thomas about his opinion. After all, they are family and he is the only
one with whom she can discuss. However, he didn''t say anything, so she thought he was reluctant to
do that.
Knowing about the change of his attitude, she is a little surprised. "But..."
"There is no time for us to hesitate. We need money." After a night, Thomas has figured it out. "Nothing
is more important than my sister''s life. If we want to revive her, we can only ept Mr. Ryan''s help."
Lorraine sighs silently. How can she not understand this? But at the thought of the staggering sum of
money needed for treatment, she hesitates. It isn''t that she doesn''t want her daughter to revive. If
possible, she wishes the injured person would be herself. She just fears how Eunice can deal with the
heavy debt after waking up?
"Thomas, I know that you have been close to your sister since childhood. It also breaks my heart to see
her like this. But the cost of treatment is much more than we can afford, which is at least several
million. Although Ryan can help us now, we have to pay it back in the future. After your sister revives,
what should she do with the debt...?”
"She doesn''t need to do anything," Thomas says without hesitation, looking cool and calm. Compared
to the youth who broke down a few days ago, he has be a quite different person. "I will take
responsibility for all of this. Mom, believe me. I will definitely earn enough money and repay the debt."
When Lorraine hears these words, her eyes suddenly turns red. She covers her face and cries softly. "I
can do nothing. It''s all my fault..."
Thomas walks over and holds his mother in his arms. Looking at Eunice, who lies on the bed with a
venttor, the eighteen-year-old boy bes an adult instantly. It is an awakening, an enlightenment
after experiencing ups and downs in life. "Mom, everything will be all right. With my sister before, and
me now, our family will survive."
...
After persuading Lorraine, Thomas immediately finds Ryan. While taking the money, he gives this man
an IOU.
Ryan doesn''t refuse. He knows that Thomas has a stubborn character, quite simr to his sister. The
young man has a strong sense of responsibility.
"What major did you choose?" Ryan asks him in the end.
Thomas is stunned for a moment and replies truthfully, "Finance."
Ryan raises his eyebrows and suddenlyughs. "That''s beyond my expectation."
"Why?"
"I thought you would choose a major that makes it easier for you to find a job. The financial industry is
stressful and highlypetitive, and there are a lot of rules and regtions. Perhaps you can only be a
low-paid employee for a lifetime."
"I am a science student and sensitive to numbers. Regardless of the future employment prospects, I
hope to choose a major that I am truly interested in." Thomas sounds quite mature.
Ryan nods without saying anything. He takes out his business card from the gilded card case and
hands it to Thomas. "Your sister probably hasn''t told you that I''m a capitalist. Finance falls into the
domain of my work, so if you want to work part-time or have any ideas, you cane to me. If you''re
confident enough, you can also go directly to mypany."

Thomas takes the card with both hands and finds that Ryan has five main titles that most people will
covet. There are even two of his dreampanies on the card, which stuns him...
Thomas is very meticulous. He knows that Ryan isn''t an ordinary person, but only regards him as a
boss or the rich second generation. It shocks him that Ryan has such a strong background...
How can his sister be in love with this man?
In hismon sense, it''s rare for an ordinary girl like his sister to get acquainted with such a man.
"Mr. Ryan, may I take the liberty of asking how you got to know my sister?" Thomas looks up at the tall
man with a serious expression.
Ryan thinks for a moment, his mind travelling back to the past. "That''s a long story, but if you''re
interested, I can go into detail about it another day."
Thomas is fobbed off in this way. He watches as the man turns around and leaves. There are no words
that can be used to describe how he feels now.
The youth gazes until he can''t see the man. Looking down at the thin business card in his palm, he
vows to himself that he will definitely be someone like Ryan.
...
Learning that Eunice is being treated, Lily is relieved. Previously, Eunice wasn''t in a good condition, but
now her vital signs are finally stable. Lily believes that Karl and other foreign experts will definitely
Because they are all outstanding experts in the medical field, with a solid grasp of cutting edge
technologies in medical science. Although they can''t bring the dead back to life, as long as people
remain alive, they can definitely think of the best way to save them.
At the same time, Lily''sser treatment has to be performed. Her wounds have now fully healed, and
the longer the treatment is dyed, the more scars there will be. Therefore, she has to receive the
treatment under the condition that the skin has the ability to repair itself.
The night before the treatment, Rex can''t fall asleep until the second half of the night. Lily is both
excited and nervous. They cuddle each other and remain silent, with the same feelings in their hearts.
The next morning, Lily ns to go to the hospital by herself. Rex is too nervous, and she''s afraid that
he would stop her from receiving the treatment. However, he insists on apanying her, and she can
only agree to his request.
It is only 9:30 a.m. when the car arrives at Karl''s Hospital. Karl has been waiting in his office for a long
time.
Knowing that it won''t be easy for Lily to receive her first treatment, he set aside the entire morning to
make preparations with all his heart.
"You need to go to the treatment roomter. Rex, you can only wait outside. But we have a viewing
screen that allows you to watch the treatment process inside in real time. Normally, this is not allowed,
but considering your feelings, we get it connected. Do you understand?" Karl reminds.
He is warning Rex that no matter what he seester, he needs to be calm.
"Yes," Rex replies in a low voice and then falls silent.
Karl heaves a sigh of relief, because Rex can easily lose hisposure if anything happens to Lily.
"Lily, it''s the first time for you to be inser therapy and you''ll also find it most difficult to endure the pain
today. To be honest, it is quite painful. You will be given an injection of anesthetic in advance, but it is
not nerve block after all and is only 0.5 cm below the skin. So you can still feel the pain clearly. You
should get yourself prepared for that." Karlmunicates thoroughly with her in advance about all the
problems she might face, so that she wouldn''t know nothing in the roomter.
Beforeing, Lily has got fully prepared. "I understand. I''ll be all right. Don''t worry."
Seeing her determined look, Karl feels slightly sad but smiles with relief. "I believe you."
She has always been so strong, so there will definitely be no problem this time.
"Just think that after the treatment, you will look the same as before. All the efforts will not be in vain."
Karl''s words touch Lily''s heart. The reason why she has the courage to do this is that she is desperate
to remove all these ugly scars on her body.
The nursees to take her to the nearby sterile room for changing clothes.
Before she leaves, Rex grabs her wrist. In front of all the people, he directly leans down to kiss her
tender lips which are slightly dry due to nervousness.
