Luis, I need to know the real condition of his leg. Can you be honest with me? she asked, her lips pursed in concern. I could find out myself if I really wanted to, but Id prefer to get the most objective assessment from you.
Luis sighed deeply and confessed, Raegan, Ill be honest. He hasnt truly rested even for a day in the past two months. They recommend a two-month recovery, but his condition is worse than what some patients achieve in just a week. Hes suffering from severe insomnia, hardly sleeping at night and getting only three to four hours of rest during the day. The rest of the time, hes working. Think about it, how could his recovery possibly go well?

His tendon recovery is insufficient Luis continued with a lot of medical jargon that Raegan couldnt fully grasp.
In essence, if Mitchel refused to return to Ardlens for surgery and insisted on staying in Aurora, the prognosis was not promising.
As for how dire the situation could be, Luis was vague. He used many technical terms, but skirted around the most critical issues.
What does not too good mean? Raegan pressed. How bad is it, really?
Luis cleared his throat before replying softly, In cases like this, amputation has sometimes been considered
Raegan was stunned into silence, her mind reeling for a full minute.
For a moment, she wondered if Luis was overstating the situation. How could it possibly lead to amputation?
The thought of Mitchel, once so admired, potentially facing such a drastic measure was overwhelming. What would become of him if it came to that? The gravity of the situation weighed heavily on Raegan.
Although she found it hard to believe, Mitchels unnaturally pale complexion made Raegan consider that Luis might not be exaggerating after all. Mitchel had been unconscious in the hospital for several days before. If his recovery continued poorly, amputation seemed a frightening but real possibility.
Raegans fingers clenched tightly, her voice barely above a whisper.
Ill convince him to return.
Luis let out a deep sigh. Its going to be tough. You two really
Luis sighed again, his words trailing off into silence.

Matters of the heart were indeed too complicated. No one was to blame. Fate was cruel, both binding and separating
After ending the call, Raegan stood silently for a long while, lost in thought.
Stefan observed her pale face, the shadows from her eyelashes casting a melancholic look. Unable to bear seeing her this distressed, he urged her to rest. Raegan, listen to me, you need to rest for the baby.
Stefan Raegan suddenly spoke up, her voice resolute. I need to bring him back for treatment.
She looked up at Stefan, her decision clear in her eyes. You need to help me.
Stefan felt a wave of relief mixed with resignation wash over him.
He had debated whether to tell Raegan that Mitchel had been following them this afternoon. Part of him hadnt wanted to disclose it, realizing he wasnt ready to let go of the person he loved.
Declaring he would support her decision, even if it meant blessing her reunion with Mitchel, was contrary to his own desires.
His voice raspy with emotion, Stefan responded, Raegan, its good that youve made your decision. Ill support you, whatever you need.
