A Second Chance at Forever (Eleanor and Bernard) novel Chapter 1140

Will got his hand treated lickety-split, so no serious aftermath. He's now in tip-top shape and just needs a bit more R&R before he's sprung from the hospital.

The moment Will saw Liana coming in, he shooed his parents away from his bedside. They got the hint, gave Liana a once-over, and left the two of them to chinwag while they cleared out.

Liana strolled over, sitting in front of Will's hospital bed, "How's the day? Can you move your hand?"

Will nodded, looking at Liana with soft eyes, "My hand will be back to normal, don’t sweat it..."

Liana held Will's hand, gave it a once-over, and seeing he was on the mend, responded, "You will recover, it's just that you might not be able to do surgeries anymore."

Will didn't give a hoot, "After some time at the Laurence Group's pharmaceutical company, I found I'm more into drug development than surgery."

Liana still felt a pang, "You're a helluva surgeon. It's a damn shame you can't operate anymore."

Hearing this, Will’s eyes lit up with a faint smile, "Whether it's being a doctor or developing drugs, it's all about healing people. As long as I can save lives, there's nothing to regret."

The last sentence yanked Liana back to the past. She just froze...

Eighteen-year-old Tyler had said the same thing. Back then, he was leaning against an escalator, hands in his pockets, quietly listening to the Howells debate his career path.
