Once she finished changing, Katelyn returned to the hospital. Neil was still in the room, but Lise was with him now. Holding onto the events from that morning, Lise eyed Hades with irritation.

She asked, “Didn’t Carol already get a check-up earlier? Why are you back?”

Katelyn ignored her completely, refusing to even look her way, and turned her attention to Neil. She carried a medical kit in her hand.

“Your mother asked me to check on your legs,” she explained.

If it had only been for Mabel’s request, Katelyn might not have come. However, she herself also intended to find out what was truly wrong with Neil’s legs.

Neil reclined in his wheelchair. His eyes were devoid of warmth.

“I don’t need it. I’m aware of my condition.”

“This is something your mother requested,” Katelyn replied, her brow furrowing as she spoke softly. “If you didn’t want me to help you, you should’ve talked to your mother.” This update is available on FιndNovel.net

She set the medical kit on the table, fixing her gaze on Neil.

“Do you want my help or not?”

Neil maintained his stern demeanor and responded, “No, I don’t. Your only responsibility now is my Grandma.”

Katelyn tightly clenched her fists and remained silent. If she intended to check Neil’s legs, she needed his permission. However, considering his current stance, there was no room for further discussion. To reach her ive, she might have to ask Mabel to persuade Neil.

As Katelyn pondered her next move, the door to the room abruptly swung open, and Mabel walked in. She had listened to everything from outside the door. How could Neil not take advantage of such a favorable chance for recovery?

Mabel begged earnestly, “Neil, please let Dr. Hades examine your legs. There might still be a glimmer of hope for you to walk again. You’re too young to spend your entire life in a wheelchair.” Her voice brimmed with sadness as she spoke. Neil was her only beloved son. He had once been full of energy, but now he couldn’t even stand up on his own. When Mabel first learned about Neil’s accident, her distress caused her to faint.

Neil scowled.

“Mom, I understand my own condition. I’ve accepted that I’ll be using a wheelchair for the rest of my life.”

Hearing this, Lise looked away. If Neil could recover, she wouldn’t have to endure people’s mockery anymore. Although she always pretended to be deeply in love with Neil, she constantly wondered if she should leave this cripple.

Thereafter, she joined the discussion.

“Neil, don’t say things like that. Do you realize how people are talking about you now? If there’s a chance to get better, why wouldn’t you take it?”

At that moment, Lise glanced toward Katelyn.

She was barely able to suppress her anger, because right now, they needed her help.

“Dr. Hades, is there really a way to heal Neil’s legs?”
