I thought of what Lukas had said before outside the emergency room, then I asked tactfully, “You and your father… Do you two not have a good relationship?”

was even more puzzled, so I inquired. “When y couldn’t save him?”
He seemed to be indifferent that day… Otherwise, I wouldn’t be so curious, either.
Nonetheless, he laughed out loud. “If I didn’t stimulate him, what if he passed out and couldn’t wake up? The only reason he’s trying his best to live is that he’s afraid that if he’s gone, my older siblings will forsake me.”
I smiled in relief. “You are lucky. I can see that your father truly loves your mother.”

1 felt a lot of pressure on my shoulders when I heard that. “I know. I will do my best.”
On the day I performed the kidney transplant operation on Cabot, everyone in the Sartre Family stayed outside the operating room except for the eldest son, Paget, who was going to undergo the operation together.
Although I specialized in cardiac surgery, I was proficient in other aspects. Therefore, with the assistance of other specialized doctors. I was confident that there would be no problems.

I didn’t know how to answer him. Was I qualified to quarrel with Stefan?
Chapter 51 The Pervasive Loneliness
Lonesome, I turned on the lights in the living room, and the light shone over, making me look like a lonely wretch. Meanwhile, Lukas was detained‘ by the Sartre Family that night and couldn’t come over.
When the whole world was silent, emptiness and loneliness penetrated my heart.
Seeing Stefan’s suit drying on the balcony. I put it away silently, careful not to make any wrinkle because he was always particular about it
