Chapter 379 She Needs a Kidney Transplant

Fanny wept beside Scarlet’s hospital bed for what felt like an eternity. She cried until she felt a little exhausted. Finally, Joseph and Christopher assisted her with an examination together.

The examination was thorough, mainly consisting of routine check–ups. However, the doctor’s demeanor upon receiving the results was far from reassuring.

“Dr. Craig, what’s the matter with Fanny?” Joseph, having spent some time at Mercy Hospital, was acquainted with many colleagues, though most were more senior in both title and expertise.

Henry, with a rank higher than Joseph’s, studied the report with a solemn expression. “Let’s conduct another round of detailed checks, focusing primarily on the kidneys.”

Joseph was taken aback and instinctively reached for the report. Sure enough, among the various indicators, there was an abnormality concerning the kidneys..

Upon exiting Henry’s office, Joseph wore an uneasy expression and it immediately drew the attention of Christopher and Fanny.

“Joseph, what’s going on?” Fanny asked with reddened eyes.

Joseph shook his head and said, “We still got to do one more round of checks, Fanny. I’ll stick with you.”

He figured it best to keep her in the dark until they had more info. Telling her now would just pile on the

worry.

Christopher glanced at Joseph’s face and tried to figure out what to say.

After they finished up with the last checkup and Fanny was exhausted, Joseph decided. “I’ll hang around for the results, but you, Fanny, head on home and get some rest.”

Fanny hesitated, sensing there was more to it than what Joseph let on..

Christopher caught Joseph’s eye and suggested, “Come on, Fanny. Let’s walk you home.”

Fanny shot Joseph a look before finally heading out.

Once they were out of the hospital, Fanny couldn’t shake the feeling of dread. “Christopher, do you think I got something serious?”

Christopher rushed to reassure her, “No way, Fanny. You’ll be fine, trust
