Clyde kept comforting Natalie, "Don't be afraid. Listen to me and relax. Take deep breaths. It's okay...!"

After a long time, Natalie finally relaxed under Clyde's reassurance. Those horrible memories gradually faded away.

Her heart also calmed down completely, and Clyde felt somewhat relieved when he saw her like this.

Then, the surgery began.

Just as they were about to administer the anesthetic, Natalie asked, "Can you tell me whose corneas are being used?"

At her words, Clyde subconsciously glanced in Cedric's direction, and Cedric was also looking at him!

The two men locked eyes, sparks of tension and resignation flying between them.

Finally, Clyde looked away. "I don't know. They were donated."

"And the person?"

"Deceased."

Natalie fell silent, and Cedric said nothing.

Clyde's straightforward answer indicated his unwillingness to dwell on the issue any further, so what else was there to argue about now?

Perhaps this was the best resolution for all of them!

At that moment, Cedric and Clyde felt Natalie relax upon hearing about the deceased donor.

After the anesthetic was administered and right before Natalie lost consciousness, Clyde suddenly asked, "Nat, if Cedric had offered you his eyes from the start, would you have accepted them?"

The atmosphere in the entire operating room froze at that moment.

Cedric looked at Natalie, his eyes filled with endless pain.

Natalie was taken aback by the question. However, her consciousness was fading, and she didn't answer the question in the end!

But Cedric knew she wouldn't have accepted them. Even if he had proposed such a solution earlier, she wouldn't have accepted them, even if it meant she would stay blind for life.

She resented him so deeply, so how could she allow herself to be tainted by a part of him?
