Chapter 1720
In fact, operation failure was risky whether an artificial or a natural cornea was used. The risk of failure using artificial ones was more significant than in human corneas because they have only been developed in the past two years. The price was also higher. The doctor suggested she use human corneas, but she refused. "Avery, listen to the doctor. The doctor recommended the natural one." Mike advised her, "Let's put other things aside first; the most important thing is for your eyes to heal." Avery replied calmly: "I could try the artificial cornea first! What if it is a success?" Seeing Avery's insistence, the doctor said, "That's also possible. If the operation using an artificial cornea fails, we can still transplant a human cornea." "That's right," Avery said. "Have a good rest today. We will perform surgery on you tomorrow." "Okay." Avery's heart beat uncontrollably. The two months of blindness had forced her to endure the hardships of being unable to

"Why is he suddenly interested in mechanical engineering?" Avery wondered, "He didn't tell me." "No one knows what your son is thinking. If he doesn't commit any crimes, just let him do whatever he wants." Mike didn't want to control Hayden. "Mike, go and see that professor." Avery was not at ease. "I want to know why Hayden chose to be this professor's student. I want to see how they talk in private." "Let's talk after you have the surgery!" Mike said, "If your surgery is successful, I'll make an appointment with that professor." Avery nodded. After she took a nap, Mike came out of the ward. Lilith and Ben stood outside the ward. He wondered when they would arrive. "Has Avery rested enough?" Lilith asked. "Yes." Mike looked at Ben, "She doesn't want to see you." "I guessed that." Ben had just found Avery's attending doctor and heard about Avery's choice to use an artificial cornea. Although he could understand Avery's choice, he still felt a little regret

" I must at least let Hayden recover his cost and help Hayden make some money before I can leave." Lilith said his plan, "I won't leave here for at least two more years." The expression on Ben's face suddenly became solemn. "Ben, I know you are getting old, and your parents want a grandson quickly. So I don't want you to waste time waiting for me." Lilith explained the matter to him. Ben sighed and said, "My parents started looking forward to having grandchildren when I was in my twenties. After so many years, they have long given up hope.""Oh. I'm being serious with you. If you meet a woman you like, just go ahead." "I'll wait for you for two years." Ben interrupted her, "Lilith, I'm very grateful you confessed to me today about your plans. I'm very sober, don't worry. It's not without reason that I've been single for so many years. I'm very picky." His words amused Lilith. "It's pointless to say this now. The plans don't keep up with the changes." Lilith adjusted

In the cafe outside the hospital, it was ten o'clock in the morning, and there was no one in the cafe. After receiving the approval of the coffee shop owner, Mike started smoking by the window. It's not that he was addicted to smoking, but the waiting process was tedious. It was already very late in the country. Ben really wanted to call Elliot for a chat. Even if they didn't talk about Avery, they could talk about something else. He was afraid of disturbing him. After he divorced Avery, he not only had to be busy with his work, but he also had to take care of the emotions of his two children. There was nothing he could help with. After thinking about it for a while, Ben still called Elliot. [The user you dialed is on a call, please try again later.] Who is Elliot talking to on the phone so late at night? Ben put down his phone and lit another cigarette. When Elliot finished talking on the phone, he would call him back. He knew very well that w

He didn't want to ruin Avery's Alpha Technologies. He seemed to be doing it all the same. He had hired Natalie and acquiesced Natalie to setting such a huge goal. Whether Natalie could accomplish the goal, Avery must have known about it by now. The funny thing is that even if she knew about it, she didn't come to him. Ben redialed his number without thinking. The system prompt that his phone had been turned off sounded. "What are you doing?!" Ben looked at the call that was automatically hung up by the system, "I haven't said a word of what I wanted to say!" If he had known that earlier, he would not have mentioned Natalie. Ben was very tight in his chest, so he came out of the cafe. He walked to the door of the hospital and called Lilith. Avery heard that Lilith had answered Ben's call in the ward and immediately said to Lilith, "Lilith, go accompany him! I just happened to be a little sleepy and was going to sleep." Lilith knew she was lying. Sh

"How old is she?" "33." "Oh...isn't she older than Avery? She seems like an old woman to me." Lilith was very rude because she resented this woman. "Haha..." Ben laughed. "Why are you laughing? Why were you talking with Elliot about this woman?" "She called Elliot for more than an hour. It's late at night in Aryadelle." Ben asked her, "A woman calls a man late at night to report her work. Do you think she is dedicated to her work, or do you think she has other intentions?" "She wants to hook up with Elliot; it's pretty obvious." Lilith said suddenly, "Although I haven't seen the woman you mentioned, I hope the two of them will get together. Avery will be completely free!" Ben was speechless. In the evening, the professor from the School of Mechanical Engineering brought Hayden to the hospital to visit Avery. After the professor and Avery greeted each other politely, Mike immediately took Hayden out of the ward. When the ward door was closed, Avery said to

Avery stilled."Well, that might not be the case. She will recover if the surgery is a success. Men are born to be unfaithful and cruel, especially men who are wealthy," the other person said. "It might not be that bad that Avery divorced him! Maybe true happiness awaits her ahead."Avery turned her heels and headed back to the ward."Doctor, can she go home to rest?" Mike asked."Yes, but you will have to be careful. She can't be moving around independently. She probably can't see all that well right now, so you will need to hire a nurse to look after her," the doctor reminded him. "Remember to get in touch with me the moment she shows any signs of discomfort.""Okay.""Also, we placed three stitches inside her eyes so remember to come back in three months to have them removed.""Okay. Anything else we need to pay attention to?""Keep her eyes clean, make sure her mood remains stable, and no crying," the doctor said. "Bear with it for a while and everything will be much easier

"The ocean here is turquoise. Can you see it? It looks beautiful."Avery struggled to see the world before her.Her eyesight was poorer than when she had just removed the bandage, so she did not respond to Mike's question.She could faintly see blue before her, but she could not see the turquoise Mike was describing.Mike decided to change the subject. "I told Hayden that we are coming here. It is far from his school, so I told him to stay with Lilith on the weekdays, and he can come over on the weekends." "Okay." Avery wanted to rest her eyes. "I think I saw a lounge chair over there.""Yeah, there's one on the balcony. Do you want to lie down for a while?""Yes."Mike helped her to the chair and she closed her eyes, indulging in the new environment.Time flew by, and soon, the summer holidays were coming to an end.It was the first of September and the weather was wonderful. Mike video called Layla in the morning, it would be night in Aryadelle. Layla told him that both
