After dinner, Eira washed the dishes and helped the kids with their studies.
Caroline watched for a while, feeling relieved by their harmony Then, she went upstairs to her
study and dialed Dr. Deric Dempsey from Grand Cast Hospital.
Deric answered, âMs. Shenton, weâve been waiting for your call.â
Caroline apologized, Tm sorry for the delay. I was unwell and hospitalized.â
Deric reassured her, âYou can always reach out if you feel unwell. Please provide your email, and
Iâll send Ms. Smithâs surgery plan.â
Caroline shared her email, and Deric promptly sent the plan. As she read it on her laptop, the medical
jargon baffled her. She forwarded it to Scott and waited for his call.
When Scott rang, Caroline asked, âHave you reviewed the surgery plan?â
âYes, the craniotomy technology is advanced, and the risk is low. You should go for it.â
Caroline made her decision. âAlright. Iâll schedule it with the doctor.â
âGreat, make sure to eat. I have surgery too.â
âSure, take care. Goodbye.â
Caroline then called Deric and scheduled the surgery for 2:00 p.m. the next day. Deric then
informed Evan.

Deric acknowledged. âOf course, Mr. Jordan.â
Evan glanced at Axel, lying on the bed with his back turned âHow long will you keep this up?â
Axelâs voice sounded weak. âI donât have an appetite.â
Evanâs tone grew serious. âIf youâre on a hunger strike because of your mother, donât even think about
seeing her again. If I can transfer you to a new school once, I can do it again.â
Axelâs hand tightened on his chest, not because of hunger strike but due to his food aversion. However,
he couldnât bear the thought of leaving the school where he shared classes with his siblings and saw
his mother after class.
Gritting his teeth, Axel forced himself upright. Til eat,â he muttered.
âJoy made your favorite beef stew. Finish your meal,â Evan said.
Axel got out of bed and nodded. He then walked downstairs, where the nanny, Joy, served the hot
stew.
Axel felt queasy at the sight of the beef chunks.
Noticing his discomfort, Joy inquired. âAre you feeling unwell, Axel?â
Axel turned away, replying, âIâm fine.â
He picked up a spoon and forced the beef stew into his mouth, battling the nausea that threatened
to overwhelm him.
