NovelOnlineChapter 924 In Front of Her, He Can Be Assertive The hall went dead silent, and for a second, Raymond felt like he couldn't hear a thing.
His hands clutched the wheelchair so tight, the veins on the back of his hands were popping out.
Selena's words hit hard because she didn't know Brenda's baby wasn't Raymond's, so her words had a double edge.
She said Max's life was more important than Raymond's baby.
This baby was the one she had once carried, and also the one Brenda was carrying.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtRaymond coughed a few times, awkwardly, not knowing how to respond.
In front of her, he could be tough and unreasonable.
But after she said those words, he lost all his fight.
He pressed his lips together, hearing her ask the vet, "How's Max?" The vet said, "He's responding, the attending doctor is still working hard." Raymond couldn't focus on the rest of the conversation.
The human brain is weird; even though he was trying hard to listen, everything just sounded like noise, and he got a headache. He glanced over at John.
John quickly stepped forward, standing behind him, silently pushing the wheelchair.
Raymond was already weak; he could usually control the wheelchair himself, but now, besides gripping it tightly, he didn't know what to do. Selena didn't feel great either. While talking to the vet, she saw John pushing Raymond away through the reflection in the glass in front of her. She was truly vicious. Knowing that his health had tanked because of her, she still struck back when he said those reckless words.
Knowing that he was just that kind of guy, saying harsh things but never following through.
She lowered her gaze, hearing the vet still talking non-stop.
After a long time, the vet finally said, "This is the current situation, Ms. Fair. It might cost a lot of money." Selena said, "Money's no object, as long as Max is alive." The vet said, "The attending doctor will use the most advanced technology available now. Max has a strong will to live, and it seems there's a big chance to keep him alive." Selena sighed in relief, feeling her strength return, and gratefully grabbed the vet's hand. "Thank you so much." The vet helped her sit down nearby and handed her a tissue.
Selena was so worried that her forehead was covered in sweat. When she first arrived, she was in a state of panic.
Now, Selena seemed to have regained scomposure.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe vet patted her back. Working in this field, and with this hospital being very strict, everyone loved animals very much. They had seen a dog that had half its head cut off by an intruder while protecting its owner. The owner spent a lot of money on treatment, but in the end, the dog still died.
Maybe the owner would have more dogs in the future, but none could replace the one that had moved her so deeply.
For lonely people, the healing power of pets couldn't be measured in words.
The vet said, "Ms. Fair, have a glass of water first. The The surgery is om expected to go on until the early hours." Selena held the water the doctor handed her. But she didn't take even a sip.
The vet sighed and asked, "Did you catch the person who abused Max?" Mentioning Brenda, Selena stiffened, then slowly nodded.
She had done enough to Brenda. Now Brenda had been taken away by Raymond, and it was very likely that Brenda's face could never be restored.
The vet felt relieved. "Good that they have been caught. In today's society, too many people are mentally uh taking out all their life's grievances on animals." Selena didn't listen much, her gaze fixed outside.
Outside, there were only clean steps left; Raymond and John were already gone.
