Chapter 893

Calvin looked at the man in front of him and asked, “Is that really the case? I believe that she wouldn’t have stood idly by even if I hadn’t been the one to rescue her and Zeki first.”

This was because Rosalie was that kind of person.

She always had a deep sense of justice since childhood. Why would Rosalie choose to become a lawyer if it weren’t for that? Even after experiencing the ups and downs of life, she ultimately chose to continue her career as a lawyer.

What drew him to her extended beyond their childhood experiences. More than anything, it was also Rosalie’s unwavering sense of justice and her composed, graceful demeanor.

These qualities were incredibly precious in a world where he was accustomed to the games and deception of prominent families.

Calvin ought to have fallen in love with Fiona when she was pretending to be Rosalie if it was solely due to his childhood fixation.

“That’s enough!” Jonathan suddenly exclaimed, “What difference does it make even if she saves you?

You are only a childhood friend to her.”

“Yes. I’m just a childhood friend. However, how could I have mistakenly thought that the person I was looking for was not her if it weren’t for your interference back then? Clearly, I could have found her sooner. If everything had started anew, do you think she would have still chosen…”

Before Calvin could finish his sentence, Jonathan rushed forward and directly grabbed the collar of his clothes. “Calvin, there’s no such thing as starting anew in this world! From the beginning to the end, the one she’s loved has always been me!”

“But does she know how despicable you are? Jonathan, I lost to you, but only because I wasn’t as despicable as you,” Calvin retorted without backing down.

Just then, the door of the consulting room swung open, and Levi walked out with a tired face.

Both men rushed to Levi and asked, “Mr. Sabatini, how’s Rosalie?”

“It’s like this for the time being. The situation is very bad. Her hand is in such a terrible state that I can’t use a needle knife on it anymore. Surgery is the only option, but I can’t guarantee the outcome,” Levi stated directly.

“Are there any other doctors who can treat her hand?” Jonathan inquired.

“I’m afraid there aren’t any here in the country. As for overseas, the world is vast, and it’s hard to say.

However, it will only deteriorate further if we don’t operate on her hand within a week. By then, she may lose the opportunity for surgery altogether,” Levi explained.

Jonathan’s expression darkened in an instant.

Calvin’s body swayed without a trace of blood on his face.

“Mr. Sabatini, how confident are you?” Calvin’s voice trembled as he asked.

“10 percent,” Levi answered.

In an instant, both men’s hearts sank. A 10 percent chance was what they called a slim chance of survival.

Jonathan first arranged for Rosalie to be admitted to the finest private hospital in the city, while the 09:16 current conservative treatment plan was based on Levi’s proposal.

However, Jonathan was still hesitating on whether to proceed with surgery or not. At the very least, he wanted to wait for Rosalie to wake up before making a choice.

When Rosalie woke up, she saw Jonathan sitting by her bedside. The first thing she did was to ask, “How’s Zeki? Has he woken up? Did Yvette give him the antidote?”

Her barrage of questions was all directed at the child, with not a single one inquiring about her own condition.

Right now, her entire attention was on the child.

“Zeki’s fine. He already had his stomach lavaged. Even though Yvette kept claiming there was no antidote, the police discovered that she had purchased sleeping pills at the pharmacy beforehand, which aligns with the doctor’s speculation,” Jonathan explained.

“Sleeping pills?” Rosalie was stunned. “Did Zeki consume a large amount? How long will it take for him to wake up?”

Jonathan uttered, “The dosage wasn’t excessive, so he should wake up by tomorrow. I’ll have the doctor conduct a more detailed examination by then. Don’t worry. The doctor said it won’t be a problem.”

Rosalie let out a sigh of relief and then started to become aware of her unfamiliar surroundings. The room was filled with various medical devices, some of which had wires attached to her fingertips.

“Is this… a hospital?” Rosalie asked.

Jonathan answered, “Yes. You’ll be staying here for a few days. Some of the equipment here can closely monitor the condition of your hands.”

He then relayed the diagnosis from Levi to Rosalie.

When Rosalie heard that there was only a 10 percent chance of success, she let out a bitter smile. “I’m aware of Mr. Sabatini’s medical skills. If it were another doctor, they might not even offer that 10 percent chance.”

“Do you wish to proceed with the surgery? If you do undergo surgery, there might be unforeseen complications down the line, even if it’s successful. On the other hand, if you choose conservative treatment, there’s a possibility you could regain basic functionality in a few of your fingers,” Jonathan said the last half of the sentence with difficulty.

Jonathan could not make her hands function like those of a normal person, despite having an abundance of wealth. In fact, he might have to helplessly watch her hands remain still and never move again.

Rosalie looked down and fixed her gaze on her hands. At this moment, her hands were wrapped with gauze, and she could not move at all. “I’ll still choose to do surgery, even if there’s just a 10 percent chance. I still want to try it! Otherwise, I’ll regret it in the future.”

Jonathan was silent for a while before he finally responded, “Okay!”

His reply was laden with a multitude of emotions.

“I’ll find another world-renowned doctor for you if the surgery isn’t a hoarse voice, as he gently held Rosalie’s hands.

Successful,” Jonathan uttered in He would become her hands if her hands truly could not move again. Jonathan would provide whatever she wanted with his own two hands.

“Jon, it’s okay. I have the strength to endure this, and I’ve long been mentally prepared in case my hands can’t be saved,” she comforted, noticing the worry on his face.

He gazed at her intently. “You’ve been mentally prepared for a long time? So, you’ve known for a while that the condition of your hand was dire, but you never told me, is that it?”

She choked and said, “I…”

Jonathan muttered, “Rosie, I don’t want to be in the dark about something even Calvin knows. I don’t want you to keep things from me, even if you’re worried about me being concerned or guilty.”

His eyes seemed to see through her thoughts at that moment.

“I’m sorry.” Rosalie bit her lip slightly and instinctively attempted to raise her hand to touch his cheek.

However, she realized that her hand was wrapped with gauze and connected to some monitoring wires when she slightly moved her hand.

“I don’t know how Calvin knows about my hand, but I never mentioned it to him. Maybe he found out from Mr. Sabatini…”

Rosalie wanted to explain, but he suddenly leaned over and kissed her lips abruptly.
