Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot

Everyone followed Doctor Bruce to the other side.

Doctor Bruce then spoke, “Although Mrs. Thompson has regained consciousness, her condition is still very critical. As doctors, we can only do our best to save her life, but at the same time, her family needs to be prepared.

With her current condition, her life is still in danger at any moment.”

Sawyer Thompson frowned slightly, “What you mean is, my mother can’t

possibly recover to her previous state?”

“You should be grateful if Mrs. Thompson can survive this ordeal. That in itself would be a miracle!” Doctor Bruce continued, “Didn’t I just say that her life is still in danger? You family members should always be beside her, and notify us immediately if there’s anything wrong.”

Upon hearing this, Sylvia Thompson could hardly restrain her urge to laugh heartily.

Great!

It’s really great!

The faces of the others looked a bit unpleasant.

Jayden Thompson asked, “Is there really no other way?”

Doctor Bruce shook his head.

Capital City Hospital was already the best and largest in Hua Xia, if they couldn’t find a solution, then there would be no hope for Mrs. Thompson.

At that moment, Doctor Bruce continued, “By the way, weren’t you guys trying to contact Doctor Leer? He might be able to help.”

Doctor Leer was the only person in the world who could be compared to Divine Doctor Suen.

It was rumored that Doctor Leer could bring the dead back to life.

If they could get in touch with Doctor Leer and have him treat Mrs.

Thompson, the chance of a successful surgery would increase by 60%.

At present, if they were to operate on Mrs. Thompson, they wouldn’t even be 10% confident.

After all, craniotomy carried a very high risk, and given her age, there was no telling what kind of risks they might encounter during the surgery.

In case of failure…

Borden Thompson was a bit anxious upon hearing this, “We haven’t been able to contact Doctor Leer yet.”

Doctor Leer was very similar to Divine Doctor Suen.

He often disappeared for months, and almost no one could get in touch with him.

Doctor Bruce adjusted his glasses and continued, “But don’t worry, you can observe her for a few more days. If her condition improves, we might consider scheduling a surgery.”

“Thank you, Doctor Bruce,” Sawyer Thompson said.

Doctor Bruce replied, “This is what we doctors should do.”

Although Mrs. Thompson’s condition was critical at the moment, Mandel Thompson had more important matters to handle. After Doctor Bruce left, he looked at Sawyer Thompson, “Dad, there’s something I need to deal with at mil my company. I might need to go to Lin City for a few days. As for grandma, I might not be able to…”

“You go ahead and get busy. I’m here with your grandma,” Sawyer Thompson said.

Sylvia Thompson interjected at this time, “Big brother, don’t worry about it. I’m free, so I can help take care of grandma.”

Mandel Thompson nodded, “Thank you for your help.”

Of course, Sylvia Thompson had to take this opportunity to impress everyone.

She wanted to let everyone know that she was the most filial granddaughter,

“It’s not a problem, taking care of grandma is my duty.”

Elena Williams praised her, “Mrs. Thompson has raised so many grandchildren, but none of them can compare to Sylvia.”

She really liked Sylvia Thompson.

Not only was the young girl outstanding and hardworking, she also knew how to make people feel good. While most people her age were still in high school, Sylvia was already a freshman in college.

If she had known how great having a daughter would be, she should have adopted one back then.

Now, looking back, she somewhat regretted it.

Hearing Elena Williams’ praise, Sylvia Thompson said modestly, “Aunt Elena, you’re too kind. After all, my brothers are boys and it’s a bit inconvenient for them to take care of grandma. It’s different for me, and besides, I don’t have any important matters to attend to.”

See how considerate she was? How could anyone not like her?

Elena Williams felt so satisfied in her heart. She gently nudged Penny Kalafatis’s arm and whispered, “This kid really knows how to win people’s hearts.’

“Yes,” Penny Kalafatis nodded, her face expressionless.

She didn’t have too much of an opinion on Sylvia Thompson.

After all, she wasn’t her own daughter. Commenting too much on others could make her look bad.

Elena Williams continued, “l really wanted a daughter back then, but unfortunately, 1 didn’t have the luck to become a grandmother.”

Her words were filled with regret.

Penny Kalafatis laughed, “We’re pretty much the same, aren’t we? Just look at

my two sons..”
