Chapter 274

I didn't join Xander for lunch as I already had an appointment with Lisa. She said Keith had come to their hospital as a visiting professor and that she had already spoken to him. She wanted me to meet him to discuss the details of Ellie's treatment. "I'll bring Brandon with me," I said. After all, it was about his sister, so it would be best if he heard everything firsthand. Plus, he should be the one to decide whether or not to go ahead with the surgery. Lisa hesitated for a moment, and I sensed that something was off. "What's wrong? Is it inconvenient?" "You should come alone. Besides, time is short. We'll only have a short break to quickly discuss the situation," she explained. So, I went to the hospital alone with Ellie's medical records. Lisa was waiting for me, and after glancing at the records, she led me to the lecture hall. On the way, she explained, "Keith is very busy. After his lecture, he has other commitments, so you might only have four or five minutes to talk."
