"We need to change our previous plan."
"Yes. | was just about to tell you that," Jed said. "Your condition is deteriorating very quickly. We need to do the operation as soon as possible." Avery glanced at the balcony and put away the report. "We'll talk about it later tonight." "Okay. Have you eaten yet?" "No. My bodyguard went to buy some food." Jed took out his mobile phone, "I'll call him and ask him to get some for me too." Avery walked toward the balcony and wanted to hear what Elliot was talking to the child about.
She had just reached the door when it was pulled open.
Elliot had ended the video call, so he returned Avery's cell phone.
"What did you tell Layla?” she asked while taking the phone.

His handsome cheeks were slightly red. " Ask your daughter! | have to go up now." "Can't you come over later tonight?" she hesitated and asked.
His face turned a bit redder again. "That would depend on the situation. I'll send you a message later." "Okay." She sent him out of the ward.
After he left, she went back to the hospital bed and sat down.
Jed joked, "That's practically a date in the hospital! I've never seen a patient with such a cheery disposition as yours." "This proves that | trust your medical skills too much. I'm only in the mood to date because I'm confident you can cure me."
"| can breathe a sigh of relief after seeing the improvement in your relationship," Jed sat down on the chair next to her. "You did so much for him, and it would've been unfair for you if he insisted on staying here.
"There's nothing fair or unfair about it. | came to him on my own accord. I'm not going to hate him even though | can't save him." She picked up the water bottle and took a sip.
"Why did you put me under general anesthesia, Jed? It's just a simple checkup. I'll have to be under general anesthesia again if | undergo the operation.
Too much anesthesia was deleterious to the body.
Jed's hands were tied because he had to give her general anesthesia to get the embryo out of her body without her knowing.
"| didn't put you under general anesthesia. The dosage is far less than the amount that's traditionally used! " Jed said awkwardly. "And judging from your condition today, I'm actually considering whether to give you a lower dose during the surgery."
"No, don’t do that! Wouldn't it hurt like hell if you give me too low a dosage? I'm scared of the pain, you know?" she said.
The bodyguard came back with some dinner.

"She's not feeling well, so she left." "What happened to her?" "You're asking me? She's your wife, for goodness sake." Elliot immediately took out his mobile phone and called Ruby.
It did not take long before the call was connected.
"I was told that you weren't feeling well, Ruby. Did something happen?" Ruby smiled gently after hearing Elliot's question and said, "I'm fine. My stomach hurts a little, and it's probably just my period. I'm resting at home right now, so you don’t have to worry about me." "You should get a checkup at the hospital if you're not feeling well," he said.
"Okay, it's not that unbearable, but if it is, I'll go. I'm just sad that | couldn't take care of Dad in the hospital today.
"Don’t worry, Paul and | will take care of him." "Thanks, Elliot! Thank you so much for your trouble," Ruby said gratefully.
After hanging up, Elliot walked to the hospital bed and looked at Gary. "How are you feeling right now?" "Dizzy." Gary frowned. "Why don't you go back and keep Ruby company? | might be able to go home tomorrow."
