Chapter 191

He took them out one by one.

The desserts were shaped like cat paws, transparent pink, particularly crystal clear, and looked very cute.

Looking at these cat paw desserts, it seemed like Nydia was coaxing Jesse.

Vergil saw these dishes and smelled the aroma, unconsciously swallowing saliva, they looked so delicious.

But why was the portion so small, it seemed like they were made for one person each.

And these plates, bowls, and soup bowls used to serve the food were all very particular.

Jesse stared at these dishes but didn’t touch them.

He was struggling whether to eat them or not.

He didn’t feel hungry before, but as soon as he saw these dishes, he suddenly became hungry.

In the end, his appetite overpowered his stubbornness, he picked up his chopsticks, tasted the beer duck, and his appetite increased instantly. He knew it was made by Nydia.

Vergil saw Jesse’s reaction and knew it was delicious.

And that Basa fish, fried to perfection, he didn’t know what seasoning was added, but it looked very delicious.

Suddenly, Jesse turned his head and looked at Vergil next to him. Vergil was stunned and immediately asked, “Boss, do you have any orders?”

“You’re disturbing me while I’m eating.”

Vergil was dumbfounded.

“Boss, I didn’t make a sound.”

“You swallowed your saliva.”

“…” Not only did he not get a share of the food, he couldn’t even swallow his own saliva.

Vergil left the office resentfully.

Jesse rarely had a good appetite, no, the food cooked by Nydia tasted good.

This soup made his stomach feel warm and comfortable when he drank it.

After finishing his meal, he suddenly realized that he might have eaten a little too much. But looking at the crystal-clear cat’s paw, he wanted to try the taste, and took a bite. It had a sour-sweet taste, with both flavors being light and just right for Jesse, who didn’t like sweetness. He unconsciously finished it all.

“Vergil, come and clean up.”

When Vergil saw that there was nothing left, he wanted to cry. Wasn’t Boss going to leave anything behind? Why did he even finish the dessert? Boss didn’t like sweets.

Jesse pretended not to notice his expression and continued with his work. When it was quarter past nine, he was ready to leave.

“Today, we’re going to Vincent’s.”

Vergil was stunned. Going to Dr. Vincent’s hospital? This was one of the few times in recent years that Jesse had taken the initiative to go to the hospital where Vincent was located.

Recently, Boss’ thoughts have become increasingly difficult to understand.

At the hospital, Jesse had already informed Vincent beforehand, so Vincent immediately came out to receive him.

“You’re such a rare guest, come on, let’s go to my office.”

Vincent was a genius doctor who became famous at a young age, especially in surgery. His hands seemed to be made specifically for performing surgeries, and many delicate and precise surgeries could only be performed by him.

“I’ll check your legs first.”

Jesse’s face was tense, his eyes deep, but he did not refuse, and lifted his pants leg for Vincent to examine.

At this time, there were only Vincent and Jesse in the office, and Vergil was waiting outside.

Vincent’s face didn’t look good.

He pressed Jesse’s legs and looked at it very carefully.

“The muscle atrophy is too severe.”

Jesse tightly pursed his lips and remained silent.

He hated seeing his own legs, which were very ugly, with scars climbing up his legs like snakes. Now, due to muscle atrophy, his calf skin was loose and dry, and there were indentations in multiple places.

Vincent sighed. He could actually understand Jesse’s feelings. Back then, Jesse was such an outstanding person, the heir to Pascall Group, envied and admired by many.

But now…

It was inevitable that people would feel emotional.

“To be honest, if you didn’t come to me today, I was planning to find you. We have developed a surgical plan that might be useful for your leg injury.”

Jesse’s eyebrows twitched, showing a hint of joy, but then he suppressed it.

He had experienced too many disappointed moments over the years and didn’t want to hold on to hope again.

The feeling of disappointment was unbearable.

“If this surgery is successful, you will be able to walk normally as long as you do proper rehabilitation. You can even run and jump, as long as it’s not too strenuous.”

“What is the success rate?”
