Chapter 679

Chapter 679 Who Is the Patient’s Family?
After about three hours, the lights above the operating room were switched off, and a
doctor emerged from the room.
After about three hours, the lights above the operating room were switched off, and a
doctor emerged from the room.
Yelena’s heart skipped a beat after she saw the doctor’s grave expression.
“Who is the patient’s family?”
Before Simone could speak, Yelena couldn’t help but interject, “It’s me.”
As soon as the words left her mouth, she realized it was inappropriate and awkwardly
stepped back.
Simone took a deep breath, stepped forward, and asked, “I’m his mother. How is he
now?”
“The patient is temporarily stable, but I recommend transferring him to another
hospital for treatment. We can’t afford any more delays with his condition.”
Simone’s vision blurred after she heard these words.
This was already the best hospital in Damoria. If they wanted to transfer him
elsewhere, they would have to go abroad.
However, his current physical condition couldn’t withstand such a journey.
Simone nearly cried in despair. At that moment, Yelena walked over to Elspeth with a
pleading look on her face. “Elspeth, can you help me save him?”
At the sight of Yelena like this, Elspeth could only pat her back. “Don’t worry. I’ve
already promised to help you, so I will.”
Yelena nodded as she wiped away the tears in her eyes.
After Hank was transferred to a regular ward, Yelena led Elspeth straight into the
ward.
Simone’s face showed hesitation. “Miss Lynwood, I know you have remarkable
medical skills, but his condition is one that no doctor can currently treat. It’s a
hereditary disease within our family, and the chances of a cure are slim…”

Elspeth understood that Simone had doubts, so she smiled and tried to offer some
comfort.
“Ms. Balkan, although I can’t guarantee that I can cure him, I will do my best to save
him, so please don’t worry.”
Simone nodded. It was indeed the only option at the moment.
Elspeth asked everyone else in the ward to temporarily leave. Only Wesley stayed
behind.
She first examined Hank’s pulse and observed his facial features before taking out a
set of acupuncture tools from her bag.
Wesley, who had studied clinical medicine, was somewhat at a loss with these
traditional medicine practices. “Mrs. Winthrop, are you planning to perform
acupuncture on him?”
“Yes. Help me hold him down, so he doesn’t move suddenly when he wakes up.”
He thought the man was lying motionless and that Elspeth was being overly cautious.
“Mrs. Winthrop, he just had surgery. He shouldn’t wake up so soon.”
“You never know. Just help me hold him down.”
Wesley agreed and carefully held Hank down.
Elspeth applied needles to several key acupoints and watched as Hank’s expression
gradually relaxed. She then removed those needles and inserted others.
After about half an hour, she removed all the needles.
Throughout the process of administering the acupuncture, Hank didn’t make any
movements.
Wesley was about to say that Elspeth was being overly cautious when he suddenly
heard a strange voice.
“Thank you.”
The voice was weak and it came from directly beneath him.
Wesley looked down at the man he was holding and realized that the man had
opened his eyes at some point.
Wesley quickly withdrew his hand as he was startled. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean it that
way. Please don’t misunderstand.”
He didn’t know why he felt the need to explain himself. Despite his actions being
perfectly reasonable, he blushed and his heart raced.
Hank chuckled lightly. “It’s okay. I understand.”
After seeing that Hank didn’t find anything wrong with the situation, Wesley realized
that he had been overly worried.
It was all his own fault. He had stayed up late reading some novels the previous night,
and perhaps those books contained some inappropriate content, his mind was still
preoccupied with those abnormal thoughts…
“Thank you for administering the acupuncture. I feel much better now.”
After collecting all the needles, Elspeth looked at him calmly. “You don’t have to thank
me. Thank Yelena instead. She asked me to come and help you. If it weren’t because
of how much she loved you, I wouldn’t have interfered in your affairs.”
At this, Hank didn’t insist on expressing gratitude further.
“I just administered acupuncture to temporarily relieve your pain. As for long-term
treatment, it will require me to consult my mentor.”
When she had examined his pulse, she had already gained a good understanding of
the severity of his condition.
With such a disease, there was no guarantee of a complete cure even if Sonny came.
However, he was Yelena’s beloved, and if he died, Yelena would have to endure the
pain of losing a lover for the second time.
