"What about the other option?" Gerald asked.

"Although the tumor is still small at the moment and doesn't seem to pose an immediate threat, there's always a risk of rupture. So, the second treatment option would be surgery to remove the patient's tumor.

"This is a surgical method and carries certain risks, but in the long run, it's safer for the patient. It depends on the family's decision," the doctor explained the second treatment suggestion, which essentially meant hospitalization.

"This isn't something I can decide alone. I need to discuss it with my family." Gerald realized that making a decision about surgery would be complicated. That was why he did not make the decision for Stan.

"Well, discuss it with your family first. Let us know when you've made a decision. For now, we'll transfer the patient to the Neurosurgery Department in the hospital. The family needs to complete the admission procedures and make the payment."

The doctor replied as he handed Gerald the hospital admission form.

Gerald took the form and handed it directly to Luke. "You're the employer, and this accident happened at your place. You should handle the payment."

Luke raised an eyebrow and said, "Fine. Anyway, Mr. Muller must've been given a scare by those two thieves. Later, I'll have the police hold those two accountable. They'll cover all the medical expenses."

His words made Gerald's expression change.

Why did Luke keep mentioning Jacob and Harold in front of him?

Did he know something?

That could not be. They never contacted each other while working for Abel so as to not raise any suspicion. If one of them got into trouble, they would deal with it separately and would not implicate each other.

Luke took Stan’s identification card from Luca. She found it before she left the house.

When Luke was ready to go pay, he turned around and said to Gerald, "But I wonder if those two made it out alive."
