“That's great. When?"

"We'll let you know when we set a date for it. Just be patient."

After that, the doctor left.

Claudia looked at Jace and said with a laugh, "Dad, just be good and stay here until the surgery, okay?"

Her laughter was so contagious that Jace joined her and Laughed.

“Okay. I'll Listen to you and be good."

"Don't just listen to me, but to the doctor too."

“Okay, okay! I'll Listen to you and the doctor."

Claudia blushed slightly and said, “That'd be great!"

After a good laugh, she took Jace downstairs for a walk. At eleven o'clock, the sky suddenly became dark.

It looked like it was going to rain, so Claudia rushed Jace back to the ward.

Worried that it would be unsafe for his daughter to drive in the rain, Jace asked her to go back home.

Claudia grabbed her things after bidding him farewell and went out of the ward. The elevator she was waiting for opened, and a woman stepped out of it.

Seeing that his daughter left, Jace suddenly looked anxious.

He looked at Elmo and racked his brain for an excuse to send him away.

"EUmo?"

Elmo was about to open the lid of the soup when he heard Jace call him. He turned around with a worried look.

"What's wrong, Sir?"

"I want to eat cantaloupe. Can you buy me one downstairs?"

"Cantaloupe?"

Jace nodded.

"There is a fruit store across the hospital. You can buy it and ask that they peel it before bringing it here."

Jace had no appetite these days. So Elmo thought he just wanted something sweet. He could give him that. With a nod, he said, "Okay.

I'll go downstairs and get it for you now."
