The Heir's Secret Bride

Chapter 224

"Wait..." Before Alexis could finish, Byron's figure disappeared from the staircase.

Alexis looked troubled. She wondered why Byron was so reluctant to marry Lynn.

She thought, "Could it be that he is afraid that Will will mind? It seems that | have to convince Will first.

Back in the study. Byron finished reading the itinerary for tomorrow that Archer had just sent him and thought for

a

moment

Then, he sent a voice message over. "Cancel all plans for tomorrow and the day after. I'm going to take Will to

the resort to

relax

Archer said, "Alright, Mr. Byron. | wish you and Mr. William a happy weekend."

Archer sympathized with himself for not having the weekend off. His hair was already thinning

On the weekend, at Lashton Sanatorium.

Gilbert had been staying here ever since he fell into a coma. The Mcdaniel family had specially hired a top-notch

medical team to take care of him here at all times, hoping that he would recover one day,

However, years had passed, and there was still no sign of him waking up.

Moreover, because Gilbert had been lying on the hospital bed day after day, his face was very haggard and he

was skin and

bones.

Maeve felt a lump in her throat.

After Theo finished checking Gilbert's pulse, Alexis immediately asked, "Dr. Chatterly, how is he? Do you have a

solution?"

Theo placed his hands behind his back and said in a childish voice, "He has merely slept for too long, and his

bodily functions are slowly deteriorating. The more he sleeps, the lower the chances of him waking up. At most,

he only has half a year left." Alexis and Jason, who had been skeptical, looked at each other in shock.

Gilbert's condition was absolutely confidential. Other than the Medaniel family and the medical team, no one

else knew.

Yet, Leo's words were exactly the sas what the doctors had said.

Jason's attitude changed. He asked anxiously, "Can he still wake up?"

*Sure. As long as we stimulate his acupuncture points through acupuncture and massage and gradually awaken

his five senses, he will definitely wake up within a month."

As soon as Theo finished speaking, the doctor beside him sneered. "What an arrogant child. Even Hippocrates

wouldn't dare to say that he could make Mr. Gilbert wake up in a month."

Theo was very calu. "I never lie.

The doctor ignored him and said to Jason and Alexis, "Mr. Jasori Mrs. Mcdaniel, we've used all possible methods

over the years, including acupuncture, but you know the outcome. Are you really going to let this child aness

around?" The doctor thought, 'Can this brat hold the silver needles steadity, or does he know all the acupuncture

points in the human

body? How dare he say much shameless words!"

Jason hesitated.

He was already suspicious of a miracle doctor who was not even live years old.

After what the doctor said, he really couldn't bring himself to le Theo try. He was afraid that Gilbert's condition

would

Worsell

Maeve's eyes were filled with mockery. Then, she went forward and held Theo's small hand. She said calmly,

"Mrs. Mcdaniel, Mr. Jason, this is your family matter. The decision is also in your hands. However, | have

something to say.

"Regarding Mr. Gilbert's treatment plan, it's the best solution that Jaylen and my son have discussed together.

The success rate is at least eighty percent. However, seeing that my son is still young, | can understand why you

don't dare to trust him for the sake of caution. We'll take our leave today

After saying that, Maeve was about to leave with Theo.

Jason had already relented after hearing her words. When he say that Maeve and Theo were about to leave, he

immediately said. "Ms. Chatterly, please wait. | didn't mean to be skeptical of your son's ability. | just considered

it for a while longer."

Alexis stepped forward and grabbed Maeve's arm. "Yes, that's right. Since we invited the two of you here, of

course, we won't question your abilities, let alone Jaylen's. Please rest assured."

After Alexis met Maeve and Theo, she called the Chatterly family to verify it.

Theo was indeed Jaylen's junior. It was said that he was the most talented student among them all. This was

definitely true.

Moreover, Jaylen had cup with the treatment plan with him so there would be even less of a problem.

Maeve frowned and looked a little forced. "Son, what do you think?

Theo immediately gave Maeve a way out. "Mommy, since this is Jaylen's request, let's show him srespect,"

All right, then."

Alexis and Jason heaved a sigh of relief. They no longer doubted Theo's performance.

The first acupuncture session took less than half an hour.

The medical team watched the entire scene from the side. Their dissatisfaction turned into admiration.

His hand is really steady. He inserted the needles accurately. He must have practiced for more than a year."

How old is he? When | was his age, | only knew how to play with mud."

he doctor who first questioned Theo looked skeptical. "Little kid. Mr. Gilbert's physique is weak. Acupuncture

should be one step by step. | don't think it's suitable to undergo intense acupuncture in the first treatment,

right?"

lis physical senses are deteriorating now, A gradual treatment won't have much effect, Theo explained in a

childish voice. My method won't hurt his body, and can even achieve rapid effects."

he doctor thought for a while and his eyes lit up. "How ingenious! Why didn't | dare to do this before?"

e felt that Theo was really fearless.

though the acupuncture took a short time, it required constant concentration, so it was more tiring than usual.

seo yawned a little, and Maeve held him in her arms. Then, she said goodbye to Alexis and Jason. "We'll come

weekend.

When they reached the door, Alexis caught up with them.

Me, although you and Dr. Charterly are unwilling to accept t

remuneration, please accept this item." Alexis

handed over a card. "This is the VIP card of the resort under Modaniel Group. The resort has good scenery and

complete facilities. It's very suitable for children. Maeve was about to refuse when she heard that it was suitable

for children. She hesitated for a few seconds before taking it Thank you

"You're welcome. | should be the one thanking you, Alexis said with a pleasant expression.

No one could imagine how Maeve was tortured by her four years ago.

Maeve pursed her lips and left with Theo.

If it weren't for Gilbert, she would never want to have anything to do with the Mcdaniel family in this lifetime.

It was still early when they cout of the sanatorium. Maeve pulled up the navigation for the resort and drove

over.

Theo was exhausted and slept like a log. He only woke up when they reached the resort.

"Mommy, where are we?" Theo rubbed his eyes and looked out curiously.

"A resort. Maeve smiled and said, "Let's chill out here for two days.

During this period of time, she had been busy with work in the stuand Theo had to go to school during the

day. It had been a long tsince they went out together. There were jacuzzis in the resort, but Theo was

obviously more interested in the arcade on the ground floor of the hotel, so/ they split up.
