The True Heiress's Return

hapter 129

After ending the call with Mitchell, Shakira immediately dialed Jasmin's number. That's when it became clear that what Cody said to Felix at the dinner table wasn't just empty words.

Jasmin was surprised, "Shakira, you don't know yet? I thought Matthew would have given you a heads-up..."

Walter raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "So confident?"

"Of course!" Shakira was ninety percent sure that even if Walter couldn't stand up completely yet, some basic nerve and joint movements had definitely shown significant recovery.

She wanted to check the results of this test, so when Matthew arrived, she could quickly sync with the current treatment progress. Shakira was very confident, taking great care with her medical skills.
