Her Heart Her Terms (Lily and Xavier)

Chapter 424

After Lily had done the examination the other day, Terence had gone to see Marvin too. He'd happened to bump into Xavier then.

Marvin had been very straightforward with his prognosis. Lily's recovery could only be up to the point where she would be able to manage regular daily living with no issues.

During the early days of recovery, she would have trouble gripping onto her cutlery. Upon recovery, she wouldn't be able to use her right hand for fine motor movements, laborious work, or for long hours.

In other words, she would only be able to use her hand for approximately ten minutes when she fed herself.

Xavier's face had dropped after Marvin had explained Lily's condition to him.

In the end, Marvin had added, "She might get a little better if she's lucky."

It had been obvious that Marvin had simply said that to console Xavier.

At that instant, both Xavier's and Terence's faces had fallen.
