Chapter 734 The Professor

It took almost two hours for James to come out of the operating room. Benjamin walked up quickly and asked

anxiously, “How’s my wife, Dr. James?”

“I’ll be frank with you, Mr. Hutton. Mrs. Hutton’s condition is not particularly good, and the brain tumor is

deteriorating much faster than we thought. At this rate, I’m afraid she’ll reach the last stage soon. I think it’s best

that you prepare yourself,” said James with a serious expression.

Benjamin felt his hands and feet become cold in an instant. “James, is there no other way? You promised me that

you would save my mother. Have you forgotten about that?” Amelia asked with a frown.

James said apologetically, “Amelia, I’ve tried my best to come up with a plan to operate on your mother, but I’m

really sorry. I don’t have any options now. I’ve tried my best to contact my mentor. As long as there is news from

his side, I will fly him to Chanaea at once. If my mentor and I join forces, there may be a way.”

Amelia nodded in despair.

Eleanor was pushed into the ward. James followed in and checked on her again. Then, he asked Benjamin to take

good care of her before shooting Amelia a look.

Amelia said, “I’m going out for a while, Mr. Hutton. Please take care of Mom.”

Benjamin nodded.

Amelia followed James out, and the two of them went to James’ office.

“What is it, James? Is there something wrong with my mom?” Amelia froze, and there was an imperceptible

nervousness in her voice.

James looked at her and pondered for a moment. “Let me be honest with you, Amelia. If there is no cure for your

mother, she will only be able to live for half a year at most. Of course, this is the worst outcome. But your mother’s

lifespan may also be extended indefinitely because of her active treatment, so this is really hard to say.”

Amelia’s hands slowly clenched into fists as she bit her lip.

“James, I have always believed in your medical skills. I don’t think you should have told me this.”

 

James flashed her a bitter smile and spread his hands. “Amelia, I’m just a doctor, not a god. I can’t do anything

about incurable diseases.”

“Back then, you were able to pull me back from the gates of hell, so you should be able to do the same to my

mother, right?” Amelia asked expectantly.

James avoided her eyes and said in disappointment, “I’m sorry.”

As if she was drained of all her strength, Amelia sighed deeply and said, “Is there really no other way? She was still

healthy just half a year ago. She shouldn’t have gotten a malignant brain tumor. She’s such a good person, and she

has never done anything bad in her life. Why is God so cruel to her?”

James couldn’t bear it. He thought for a while and comforted her, “Hold yourself together, Amelia. Life and death

are beyond our control, and what I just said is the worst possible outcome. Medical technology is very advanced

now, so there will be a solution.” Everyone knew that as long as malignant brain tumors reached the middle and

late stages, the chance of being cured was really slim. Just like leukemia, although there were successful cases,

they were really few.

Amelia raised her hand to wipe away the tears that had fallen unintentionally. “Thank you for the hard work,

James.” After saying that, she turned around and walked out.

As she went back into the ward, she heard Benjamin talking to Eleanor in a gentle voice.

“Eleanor, I’ve agreed to let you go back to Tayhaven with Amelia. So, can you wake up and talk to me now?”

Of course, Eleanor, who was on the bed, did not answer.

Benjamin continued, “I was wrong, Eleanor. I made you sad for more than twenty years. But as long as you wake

up, I can promise you anything, even if it means acknowledging Amelia Winters as my daughter.”

Eleanor remained silent.

While Benjamin was still mumbling, Amelia gave him a complicated look, then turned around and silently walked out

of the ward.

As soon as she got out of the ward, she saw Oscar striding toward her. The sourness she had suppressed rose from

within her again.

Oscar walked up to her and looked into her red eyes.

“What’s wrong?” Oscar asked softly.

Amelia wrapped her arms around his waist and said in a child-like voice, “I’m just a little tired.” She was exhausted,

both physically and mentally.

Oscar took her to the bench and sat down. He gently stroked her hair and asked, “Tell me, why are you unhappy?”

Amelia shook her head. “I’m not unhappy. I just feel that I’m a little useless. Even if I’m rich, I can’t do anything

when my loved ones are sick.”

“Did something happen to Mom again?”

“James said the worst possible outcome for her is that she could only live for six months at most.”

“You said it was the worst outcome, no? A person’s will to survive is much stronger than what is medically

determined. I believe that Mom will be strong enough to continue living for you.”

“Really?”

Oscar nodded.

Amelia’s lips curved slightly. “Thank you, Oscar.”

“I’m your husband. There’s no need for you to thank me.”

Amelia bobbed her head in appreciation.

“Don’t think too much. I’ll talk to James later to see if I can discuss a plan for Mom’s operation. I think as long as I

have the money, I can hire a lot of highly skilled doctors. She will be fine.”

Amelia merely nodded without saying anything.

The couple sat on the bench for nearly an hour. Oscar stroked her hair and said, “You should go in. Maybe Mom will

wake up in a while.”

Amelia nestled in his arms and shook her head gloomily. She didn’t want to go in for the time being.

“Then should we go home?”

Again, Amelia shook her head. She said in a low voice, “Stay with me for a while. I don’t feel so good. I can’t face

my mom, who was fine half a year ago and yet became so haggard in a few days. James told me that she can only

live for half a year at most, but I don’t want to believe it. Oscar, sometimes I really hope that this is just a dream.”

After a pause, she continued, “I didn’t want anything to do with the Hutton family before, but she is one of the few

elders who truly loves me. She treats me better than my adoptive parents, and it hurts to see her in a coma. Maybe

this is the mother-daughter connection that others often say.”

“Don’t worry. I will ask the best doctors to treat her,” Oscar said.

As he promised, Oscar used his personal connections to look for James’ mentor, who was in the deep mountains

and forests all over the world. In the end, they found a bearded man on an unknown mountain in Anglandur. The

mentor was crazy about medicine and had been living in that deep mountain for two to three months to find the

medicinal herbs he wanted.

“We’ve finally found you, Professor. Please come to Chanaea with us. There is a patient who needs your help,” the

bodyguard in the lead said in fluent Erihalese.

“Who are you?” the mentor asked cautiously.

“Forgive me, Professor. We are bodyguards sent by Oscar Clinton. He and James have been good friends for many

years. I think you should know him. His mother-in-law has a malignant brain tumor, so we would like to invite you

back to treat her,” said the bodyguard.

“I see. Okay, I’ll go to Chanaea with you. But can I take a shower, shave my beard, and change my clothes before I

go? I’m afraid I’ll scare them looking like this,” the mentor said.

“Of course, Professor. This way, please.”

The group of people invited the mentor to a small town a hundred kilometers away from there. They found a hotel

for the mentor to wash up before they rushed to the airport overnight. They waited for nearly an hour to board the

plane, and they didn’t arrive in Tayhaven until the next day.

“Professor, do you need something to fill your stomach first?”

“Sure, thank you. I’m a little hungry now.” Perhaps it was because he had been moving about yesterday and didn’t

have a good meal. He was starving at that moment.

After the meal, the bodyguards brought him to the hospital.

James had been waiting there with Amelia and Oscar.

“I’m sorry, James. I’ve been staying in the mountains for a while, and the signal is not good there, so I didn’t receive

your call.”

“I’m used to it, but it’s fine as long as you come back safe and sound. Now, let’s skip the pleasantries. I have a

patient who is in a serious condition right now. It may be necessary for us, the master and the apprentice, to join

hands for this case. I hope we can create another medical miracle.”

The mentor nodded.

Amelia said, “Thank you for taking time out of your busy schedule to come here, Professor. You can rest assured

that as long as you can cure my mother, we will not treat you badly in terms of remuneration.”

“There’s no need for you to be so polite, Amelia. We have met a few times before. I came here because of you all.

As for the remuneration, I don’t care about it. I’m old and I’m not short of money. What I yearn for is to take down

some diseases that are difficult to defeat,” said the mentor like a loving elder.

He was obsessed with medicine and not so obsessed with money.

“I’m counting on you, Professor.”

The mentor nodded in response.

They took the elevator upstairs and entered the ward. Benjamin turned his head and furrowed his eyebrows. “Who

is this?”

“This is James’ mentor, who works at a hospital in Anglandur and is an all-around expert invited by many hospitals.

He is also a professor at a university in Anglandur. His medical skills are known worldwide. With him and James

working together, Mom will be fine,” Amelia said seriously.

Benjamin’s eyes lit up. He quickly stepped forward and said, “Hello, the name’s Hutton. I’m glad to meet you. I

heard about you from my friend who worked in this hospital and tried to call you. It’s a pity that my calls couldn’t

get through, but it is a blessing to the Hutton family now that you can take the time to come here. As long as you

can heal my wife, the remuneration is not a problem.”

The mentor nodded and said in poor Chanaean, “Don’t worry, Mr. Hutton. As doctors, we will try our best to treat

the patient. But I have to check the patient and understand all the conditions before I can come up with the right

treatment.”

Benjamin nodded in response, a trace of joy on his face.
