Chapter 1163 Can My Daughter Still Wake Up?
Just as he was hesitating, someone suddenly patted him on the shoulder.
Kevin was startled and quickly looked back, only to find that it was an old lady.
Feeling a bit familiar, he thought for a moment and recognized Alivia's mother.
"Hello, Mrs. Clark."
"Hello! Nice to meet you." Romy saw him standing outside and couldn't help but feel strange. Just as she was about
to open the door to welcome him in, she saw Bert in the room.
She was stunned for a moment and then understood. "Mr. Lane, if you have anything to say, just tell me."
Kevin met Romy's aged eyes. Although she was no longer young and didn't have much exposure to the world, she

Kevin admired Alivia a lot. Raising two children on her own today was not easy. Even now, facing such a situation,
she remained composed, accepted Bert's help, and quickly gathered strength to take care of her daughter.
He called her into the reception room next to the ward. "Mrs. Clark, you've been here with Alivia every day, so you
must also take care of yourself and rest. Otherwise, you won't be able to hold up."
Romy waved her hand. "I'm fine. I'm already an old-timer, and I can handle it!"
After that, she immediately asked about Alivia, "Mr. Lane, how's it going with my daughter?"
She knew that as the director of such a big hospital, Kevin must be very busy. Today, he must have something to
say.
However, the words Kevin could say to Bert might not be something he could say to Romy. People have different
capacities to bear hardships. While Bert had experienced life and death and could endure immense suffering, Romy
was different. She had led a simple and straightforward life. If he were to fully disclose the condition to her at this
moment, she would surely not be able to handle it.
With these thoughts in mind, Kevin swallowed the words on his lips and tried to console her. "The experts are
actively working on treatment plans. Although it might take some time, it is to ensure the best possible surgical
success. If there is a chance for treatment, it's a good sign. You don't need to worry too much."
Romy took a disposable paper cup and handed him a cup of warm water. Her facial expression remained
unchanged, but her words surprised him. "Mr. Lane, tell me the truth. Can my daughter still wake up?"
Kevin didn't expect her to ask this suddenly. Romy had always been very cooperative with medical treatment, and
they intentionally created a relatively positive illusion for her. Everyone believed that this elderly woman was
relatively at ease with the situation, but little did they know that all her worries were buried in her heart. She knew
the reality.

Being asked this, Kevin felt a bit embarrassed but still emphasized, "Mrs. Clark, rest assured, there is a solution. If
there is no way, I will definitely tell you."
Romy seemed to want to say something more, her mouth opened, but ultimately, no words came out. After a
moment of silence, she lowered her head and choked out, "Mr. Lane, if Alivia really can't wake up, I hope you can
tell me the truth. I won't give up on treatment. As long as my child has a breath, I will continue with the treatment,
but I don't want to live in my own imagination."
Kevin had faced many families of patients, witnessing deeply moving scenes of desperate pleas for cure or
heartrending cries after losing their loved ones. However, people like Romy, who spoke about reality with such
candidness, were not so common.
His eyes felt a bit warm, and his nose seemed to pinch with a sourness.
He was a doctor, so he had to stay rational and not infect the patient's family with more negative emotions.
Kevin held back his tears and gently patted Romy's shoulder. "All right, I promise you," he said.
