NovelEnglishAvery went back to the hotel and opened her contact list to find one of her classmates back when she was in grad school. If she wasn't mistaken, this classmate of hers had beca rather famous neurosurgeon. However, they had not been in touch for years so she wasn't sure if he would be willing to call the way to Ylore to treat her.

Jed Hutchinson, right? | heard from Wesley that you've beca great neurosurgeon. Are you still working in a hospital?" Avery asked in a gentle voice.
"Yes. Wesley talked to you about me? What an honor!" "Jed, | need your help with something. Do you have time?" Avery asked carefully "I'm a bit busy this week. Just tellwhat you need and | can make tfor it," Jed chuckled and said, "Of course, I'm going to help if you need a favor." Avery described her test results to Jed and said, "The medical resources here in Ylore aren't that developed, so | want a doctor | know to operate on me. Don't worry about the pay. So long as you are willing to chere, nyour price and I'll double it." Jed was flattered. "We used to be classmates, so there’s no need for us to talk about money! | will apply for leave next week and go find you. Let's set up a treatment plan together. Forget about paying me, once your surgery is done successfully, just treatto dinner or something." "How could | possibly take your kindness for granted?" Avery said shyly, "Let's just discuss this once you are here." "Sure. Get srest in the next couple of days and I'll try my best to get there as soon as | can.” "Yeah." Once the discussion was over, Avery sighed a breath of relief.
She had managed to discover her condition early on, so apart from headaches, she had not shown any other symptoms.
She took a sip of water and called Wesley, wondering how Shea was recovering and how Adrian was doing. She had not been in touch with them since what happened to Elliot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmWesley picked up immediately. "How is he, Avery? Did they find anything about Elliot?" "I'm fine... Elliot... He's probably alive,” she hesitated for a moment ?al;XKT: said, "They didn’t find a body and Gary's words were a bit vague. Of course, even if Elliot is not dead, he's probably not doing so well." "So long as he's alive, that's enough. Even if he's ill, we can treat him. He will cback once he gets better," Wesley consoled, "Don't worry about Shea. She is recovering well but still under observation in the hospital because she is still too weak." "Okay. What about Adrian? How is he doing?" "I hired a teacher for him to teach him things every single day. | check on him every night and he seems to be doing great. " Wesley had refrained from sending Avery any message in fear that he might disturb her.
"What about Cole? Has he clooking for trouble?” "No. He's probably back in Aryadelle by now, since there's no point for him to stay here any longer; besides, news of Elliot's death is all over Aryadelle so even if he is plotting something, he would wait until he is back!" Avery was relieved. "You've done good, Wesley! | don't how much longer it would take forto go find you. If Shea gets discharged and you want to take them back to Aryadelle..." "It's too early for her to get discharged. | will wait until she fully recovers.” "Sure." "Are you still in Ylore? Are you in any danger?" "No. Gary might not be a good person, but he would not lay a finger onwhen | haven't done anything to him in person.” "Good to hear. Don't worry about Shea and Adrian. Take good care of yourself." "Okay." After hanging up, Avery took the test results out again. She felt a bit tired, but couldn't seem to fall asleep.
Jed would be arriving at Ylore the next week.
