Chapter 370
After we showed George everything we brought, the three of us sat on chairs like criminals. waiting for the judge to pronounce their sentence.
George took out the papers and looked through them carefully. He also grabbed the imagery and inspected it against a projector. Then, he put everything back on his desk and looked at us.
He smiled, amused by our anxiousness. He smirked so brightly. His ruby lips parted like at blossoming red peony.
Colin and Felix were both handsome men, but they were attractive in their own ways.
Felix was scholarly while Colin was flirty. And George was simply exuberant.
"So George, can you do it? What's the chance of success?" asked Matthew.
"It's not a complicated case. If I operate on him, I'll say more than 90%. However, I need to conduct a comprehensive checkup on him before surgery."
I almost jumped from my seat and cheered. But Colin pulled me down and continued politely," Mr. George, what will happen if the 10% occurs?"
George glanced at us, surprised. Then, he uttered, "I'm very confident in my own skill. However, I didn't say 100% because oftentimes, this kind of case requires luck and human cooperation."
Then, he threw us a look of bemusement.
"So, do you want to take your chances?" George lifted his chin proudly. "If yes, you'll check in now. We'll perform a check-up and prepare everything. I'm free the morning of the day after
tomorrow."
Colin and I waited for Felix's answer. He was the patient here. Even a skillful doctor had to rely on the cooperation of his patient.
Felix raised his head and answered, "Yes."
Then, we scrambled to get Felix admitted. Colin made several trips between the school and the hospital. Matthew saw that we needed help, so he called Helen to assist us.
I took out time to notify my parents and Felix's parents. They were over the moon and said they would drive here. They would arrive in the afternoon at the latest. Aunt Mel was overjoyed. When she heard that Matthew had helped Felix, she cried and kept saying thanks.
She didn't have to thank anyone. Everyone wanted to help Felix. Besides, he got injured because of me.
It was nearly 3:00 pm when Felix was checked into a single ward. None of us had time for

lunch. That said, we were all very excited. No one made a fuss about hunger.
I was exhausted. I had never been this busy before, so I sat on the chair and rested.
Helen suggested we get food together. But Matthew said no and left with Helen, saying that he had a family gathering at night. He said we should use the time to rest properly. The meal could be saved for another day. It didn't have to be on that day.
Once Felix fell asleep, Colin woke me up, fed me some water, and opened a packet of bread so that I could nourish myself. We leaned against the chair and whispered to each other.
"Felix will be cured tomorrow. Are you happy, Colin?"
