Richelle Dunn handed him a straw-topped cup, which she held to his lips. After he had finished drinking, she posed a question.
“I’ve already called the kids, they roughly know about your situation. I promised them I would call them when you woke up.”
Roy Lewis instinctively asked, “A video call?”
Richelle shook her head, “No, a voice call will do.”
Roy breathed a sigh of relief, “That’s fine. They’re still young. Seeing me in this state would scare them. Let’s make the call later, perhaps before dinner.”
Richelle simply responded, “I know, but I did tell them about your general condition. I don’t want to lie to them.”
Understood this well.
“Tiffany should be fine, but it’s hard to fool Timmy and Timothy, they’ve got sharp minds.”
“Right, those two think more when you try to conceal something from them. Better off just telling them everything.”
Roy fell silent for a moment, then asked,
“Did they cry?”
Richelle didn’t want to lie to him, “Yes, Tiffany cried the hardest, sobbing uncontrollably. But Timmy and Timothy were okay…”
Roy sighed and took her hand again.
“I’m sorry for putting you and the kids through this.”
Richelle was not pleased, “Roy Lewis, I will get angry if you keep saying things like this!”
Although Roy was blind, he could tell from Richelle’s tone that she was already upset.
He pulled Richelle’s hand to his mouth and gently kissed it.
“So, I been unconscious just for one night and a few hours?”
Richelle confirmed, “Yes, you’re strong, you are recovering quickly.”
Roy couldn’t see anything, but he still opened his eyes.
“I heard that I used up all the blood in the blood bank. Luckily you had the foresight to borrow some from outside in advance.”
Richelle affirmed, “I told you before, when I am on the operation table, I am Dr. Dunn. It wouldn’t matter who the patient is, I would make the same judgment and take the same measures.”
Roy nodded, quite proud, he said,
“Yes, our Dr. Dunn is expected to take Master Seaton’s position.”
Richelle used to resist this idea, but for some reason, over the past months, her attitude had gradually changed.
It seemed that her identity as a doctor, compared to her other identities, had become more important to her.
Therefore, just over half a month ago, when Sonia Seaton once again urged her to apply for the Hall of Fame training program, she said, “I’ll think about it.”
This was the third time Sonia had asked her to apply, and she had firmly refused the first two times.
But this time, she said, I’ll think about it.
“Did the master tell you?”
Roy responded affirmatively, “She also mentioned that some people with lower skills than you got the training qualification last year. If you had agreed earlier, you would probably have turned positive by now.”
Richelle casually said, “I don’t care about turning positive or whatever, it’s just that, with that qualification, I can indeed help more people.”
Before Roy could say anything, Richelle added.
“Also, since Timmy has decided to go down this path, I hope that me, as his mommy, can set the right example for him, instead of being fickle and doing as I please.”
Roy gently patted her hand, “It’s okay, my darling, whatever choice you make, it’s right. Your master once asked me about this, she was afraid I would oppose it. But as long as it’s your choice, I don’t mind it even if I have to go through hardships.”
Richelle chuckled when he mentioned this.
“Why does it feel like your interaction with my master is like a daughter-in-law dealing with a difficult mother-in-law?”
After hearing her comparison, Roy also laughed.
“It really is similar, but your master is not a malicious mother-in-law. She just cares about you so much that she’s always worried you’ll end up being dominated and bullied by me, which is why she always appears grumpy in front of me.”
Richelle agreed with his words, “That’s true, my master treats me just as she does with the three kids. If anyone dares to bully them, I would be the first one not to forgive the bully. So, ultimately, you’ve become the bad guy in my master’s eyes.”
Roy sighed, “There’s no helping it, it’s something that can’t be changed, just like how Tiffany’s future boyfriend or husband will always be a bad guy in our eyes!”
On hearing this, Richelle couldn’t hold back her laughter.
“If that’s the case, it’s quite unfortunate for Tiffany’s future beau. Normally, one only needs to deal with a difficult father-in-law, but in our case, he’ll also have to face two potentially difficult uncles. I genuinely feel for him and would like to light a long line of candles for his future.”
Even though one of them was a critical injury patient just freshly out of resuscitation, and their companion was the family member of said patient, anyone overhearing their conversation would simply think they were a happy couple sitting in their courtyard, watching their kids play, chatting casually about family matters.
“What’s the weather like outside?”
After a few lines about their kids, Roy suddenly changed the topic.
Richelle looked outside the window, it was a clear day with a bright blue sky and fluffy white clouds.
“The weather’s really nice, a beautifully sunny day.”
Roy tightened his grip on her hand, “Hmm, when I leave the hospital, let’s go out to sea for a few days..”
