Chapter 2066 Discharged From The Hospital
The lack of vitality in his demeanor made Elisa feel like she was a stranger. It has been quite some time, yet there is
no sign of improvement in Rachel’s condition. Even when I asked the attending physician, the answers received
were quite vague.
“We cannot be certain about when exactly she will wake up. I cannot provide you conclusion. All I can say is, let’s
leave it to fate. She might wake up tomorrow, or she might never wake up
with a precise in this lifetime… Having family members by her side, talking to her, can to some extent stimulate her
will to live,” the attending physician said.
In Elisa’s view, those words would be better left unsaid. Does this mean that he cannot do anything and can only
leave it to fate? But I am an atheist who does not believe in heaven or fate. Now, it seems like I cannot even trust
conventional medicine. In truth, I never really trusted conventional medicine. The prescribed conventional

completely cured, there would not be as many people continually buying medicine.
Elisa had always found conventional medicine unreliable.
Usually, she could turn a blind eye, but when it came to Rachel, she absolutely could not.
Hence, Elisa made a shocking decision there and then.
She wanted to take Rachel back and create a sterile environment at home to maintain Rachel’s vital signs.
However, she wanted to switch all of Rachel’s medications to alternative medicine.
For Elisa, creating a sterile environment at home was not a difficult task.
Yet, the challenge lay in the prejudices of those around her.
This prejudice was not against Elisa, but against alternative medicine.
For instance, when the attending physician heard Elisa’s decision, he stared with disapproval written all over his
face. However, he managed to maintain a polite tone when he urged. “I would advise Ms. Benett against doing this.
After all, reality and ideas are often at odds.”
They probably thought that Elisa had completely lost her mind.
However, Elisa stood firm on her decision. She had faith in herself, and she also had faith in Rachel.
Helplessly, the attending physician could only continuously call Rachel’s family, as well as Vincent, who had been by
her side all this time.
The attending physician probably wanted them to persuade Elisa not to treat the patient’s life as a child’s play.
However, after hearing the ins and outs of the situation, Rachel’s family and Vincent unanimously chose to trust
Elisa.
That was especially the case for Rachel’s mother. Ever since she learned of this terrible news, she had not had a
good night’s sleep for a long time. Dark circles hung under her eyes, almost larger than her eyes
themselves.
In fact, her complexion was terrible due to the sleepless nights.

Elisa vaguely remembered that Rachel’s mother, Catherine Stevenson, was a beautiful woman who could sing
opera.
Right then, Catherine held Elisa’s hand firmly and said, “Liz, I know that Rachel has always trusted you. I trust Rach,
so I also trust you. Whatever you are thinking, as long as it is for Rach’s good, feel free to do it. Even if the outcome
is not as expected, I will not blame you, after all…” Her gaze fell on Rachel, her voice tinged with sadness. “After all,
the worst outcome is her lying here motionless, isn’t it? There can’t be anything worse. So, dear child, go ahead
without worry. We will sign this document.”
Elisa gripped Catherine’s hand in return, feeling a silent surge of strength passing between them.
“If anyone can save Rachel, I believe it has to be you.” Vincent also stood up to express his own stance.
