qA month had passed in a blink of an eye.
Francesca's injuries had nearly healed completely. Anthony had already been discharged
from the hospital but was still recuperating in his in-house clinic due to the severity of his
injuries.
Francesca had hired a few medical staff to care for him at home and had Kerrie manage
them.
Meanwhile, she kept herself busy at home, the orphanage, and William's house.
After a period of treatment, William's leg had almost fully recovered. The problem in his
lumbar vertebrae had eased significantly. Even though he still couldn't stand on his feet,
they were not as numb as before. He even felt some sensation in them.
However, Francesca's treatment of William had reached a bottleneck stage. She couldn't
find a breakthrough. If I continue treating him with this method, his legs won't make any
more significant improvement. They'll only remain at this stage.
Thus, Francesca planned to halt his treatment temporarily while she searched for a
breakthrough by flipping through medical books.
William asked, “Then, does that mean you won't be coming here as of late?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Yeah, I won't be coming over for a while.” Francesca's gaze was glued to the man's X-ray
films as she spoke, “Let's talk later after I find a new treatment plan. Just rest well at home
and take your medication on time. I'll have Kerrie come over to conduct acupuncture on
you every day to stabilize your condition.”
William stayed silent at her remark. The disappointment was clear as day in his eyes.
“Can the nurse do it properly?” Robin noticed William's disappointment and asked
carefully, “How about we head over to the café every day and you conduct acupuncture
there? That can save a bit of your time.”
“For Prince William's case, it only requires the insertion of needles at two acupoints. It's
simple and doesn't need any advanced skills.” Francesca didn't think deeper about their
suggestion. “Even though Kerrie's medical skills aren't that good, her basic skills are fine.”
“Yes. I'll do my best.” Kerrie nodded. “Please rest assured, Your Highness.”
“Then—”
“All right. The orphanage will reopen today, so I have to rush there.” Francesca checked
the time on her watch. “Stay here for observation, Kerrie. You can leave after you finish
His Highness' acupuncture treatment at six in the evening.”
“Yes, Ms. Felch.”
Francesca left for the front door in a hurry, and Robin wheeled William to see her off.
Kerrie followed behind them and reminded, “Remember to take your medicine, Ms. Felch.”
“Oh, right.”
Francesca's injuries hadn't completely recovered, so she still needed to take her
medication, but she kept forgetting about it. She would only remember to take them at
Kerrie's daily reminder.
She got into the car and fired up the engine while her other hand rifled through her purse
for her pills. She poured out a tablet and swallowed it without any water. After the pill slid
down her throat, she waved goodbye at the trio, then pulled away from the house.
Kerrie watched as Francesca drove away and uttered, “Mr. Lindberg ordered me to take
good care of Ms. Felch and to remind her to take her medication. I'm worried she'll forget
to take it without me by her side.”
“I didn't expect Mr. Lindberg to be so meticulous,” Robin replied.
“Mr. Lindberg doesn't care about other people or things, but he's especially caring toward
Ms. Felch. They have a lovely relationship. They need to video call each other every
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmnight...”
Kerrie continued to blab about how lovely Danrique's and Francesca's relationship was.
Robin caught the forlorn expression on William's face and urgently interrupted Kerrie.
“Okay, Kerrie. We've already prepared your meal. You may have it now and come back
later when it's time for His Highness' acupuncture treatment.”
“All right. Sorry for the trouble.”
Kerrie nodded with a smile.
Robin had a maid lead Kerrie to the dining room and ordered another maid to prepare a
guest room for Kerrie to rest. Once he was done with the arrangements, he wheeled
William back to his room.
On the way back, William was silent. His expression crestfallen.
“After the orphanage's explosion and Mr. Lindberg's visit, Ms. Felch wasn't as friendly to
you as before. It almost seemed as if she was keeping her distance from you.”
Robin finally addressed the elephant in the room after holding it in for so long.
“Yeah.” William nodded. “I thought Francesca would be disappointed with Danrique's
arrogance and unsociable traits. I didn't expect her to continue liking him.”
“I didn't expect Mr. Lindberg to be so meticulous,” Robin replied.
