“I know that she didn't mean anything else."
The general was an important person to her. Narrowing her eyes, Arielle slid a glance at Nico. She was not about to give up such a good opportunity to get closer to Matthew just because of a woman who was unrequitedly in love with her man.
“Old Mrs. Nighy had a brain hemorrhage. Even though we have managed to stabilize her condition, you have to continue monitoring her health and take good care of her. She would also be required to undergo some physiotherapy," Arielle explained calmly.
Back in Chanaea, even though that was what she had always told her patients' family members, most of them were not able to do as they were told. That was because most of the children of her elderly patients were working adults and had children of their own as well. As such, very few of them actually had the time to accompany their parents to physiotherapy.
“Don't worry. We will definitely do that," Matthew replied.
Arielle nodded and proceeded to state the various complications that Lisa would possibly encounter in the future, as patients who had suffered from brain hemorrhage would not recover completely just after one surgery. Hence, it was essential for her family members to be aware of the situations they might have to tackle next time.
The general was stunned for a moment when he heard that. He had never imagined that his mother, who had always been a proud woman, would have to deal with all those complicated after-effects of the illness one day.
“Dr. Moore, is there really no way for my mother to be cured completely?’* Matthew asked, fixing his intense gaze on Arielle. If she dared to lie to him, he would not let her leave the hospital alive.
Arielle nodded and replied, “I have never encountered any patients with the same condition who had made a complete recovery.’* Taking a pause, she continued, “However, perhaps your mother would be the exception.’*
“Thank you, Dr. Moore,’* Matthew said and took out his name card from his pocket before passing it to the woman. “If you need any help, feel free to look for me.’*
To his surprise, Arielle took over the name card and put it in her pocket casually.
Matthew could not help but feel puzzled at the doctor's actions as almost everyone in the country yearned to have his name card. However, the woman in front of him had merely put it in her pocket without even looking at it. That clearly showed that she was very confident in her own abilities and couldn't care less about his offer to help.
