Chapter 080 Persistence is Key in Pursuing Love!

"Mom, what are you going on about?" Cormac quickly presented her with a fabricated diagnostic report, saying, "The doctor diagnosed it as a gastric ulcer, but a severe one. I stayed for dinner today to urge you to have surgery immediately." Ravenna examined the report, her brows furrowed. "I can't understand all the technical jargon here, but I have enough common sense to know you don't need surgery for a stomach ulcer, right?"

"Wasn't that what your son just said?" Griffon interjected. "An ordinary ulcer, no, but yours is severe and does require surgery."

"That's right, Mom. I might be a psychologist, but I'm still a doctor. I know a thing or two. Don't you trust me?" Cormac appealed to her.

"I trust you, of course," Ravenna conceded. "Alright, we'll do as you say."

"Good. Tomorrow, I'll arrange for your hospital admission, and we'll move forward with the surgery as soon as possible," Cormac announced.

After dinner, Cormac chatted with Ravenna for a while before urging her to get some rest, leaving only himself and his father in a suffocating atmosphere.

Griffon broke the silence. "Did you visit Galatea Hartley?"

"Yes," Cormac replied. "Galatea is very professional in this field. If it weren't for her current recovery, I would have insisted she be the primary doctor for my mom."

"You've only met her a few times, and you trust her this much?"

"The number of encounters may be few, but I am good at judging character. As a doctor, she is absolutely trustworthy."

Griffon scoffed at that. "That girl really is something. A woman filled with lies, who doesn't even dare to reveal her true identity, has managed to completely deceive you all."

"What do you mean?" Cormac was clueless.

"It means you're both too young and naive, conned without even realizing it," Griffon said as he ascended the stairs. "After all, I am your father. Despite any distance between us, I always want what's best for you. It's better to keep your distance from that woman."

Cormac could not grasp what Griffon was implying, but his main concern at the moment was Ravenna's illness. He had no time to ponder over whatever falsehoods Galatea might be concocting.
