At eight o'clock that evening, Catherine received the news that the plane Thomas was on had landed at Casier.
After exchanging a few words with Karl, she decided to go to the hospital.
Branden personally drove, and the two set off together.
Standing at the entrance of the old mansion, Karl, watching their figures coming and going together, asked in a low voice, "How much longer until Catherine graduates?" The butler responded quietly, "Sir, Miss Swann has another three and a half years to graduate from Styre University." Karl's brows furrowed instantly when he heard that. "Is it still that long? When will my great-grandchild finally arrive then?" Knowing Karl was anxious, Simon comforted and said, “If they can't marry yet, let's have an engagement ceremony. Even though the families have verbally agreed, we haven't held a formal banquet yet, right?" "Good point!" Karl, satisfied, nodded at Simon. "You're quite smart. When Branden comes back later, tell him to find me!" In the corridor outside the operating room, Catherine spotted Audrey, but to her surprise, Triston was accompanying her.
Their intimate behavior suggested a close relationship.
It seemed that the two staying in Casier had made rapid progress in their relationship! Sensing movement beside them, both of them turned their heads. When Audrey saw Catherine, she immediately jumped B, from Triston.
Seeing this, Triston felt awkward, even sensing Branden mocking him on the side.
He had said he was a dreamboat to all women before. But now Audrey had pushed him away in public. It was like a slap in the face.
Feeling displeased, Triston grabbed Audrey's arm and declared to Catherine with a raised chin, "Catherine, I solemnly tell you, I am now pursuing your sister and will soon becyour brother-in-law!" Before Catherine could respond, Audrey exploded and kicked Triston. "Are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about?" Triston gazed affectionately at Audrey and said, "Audrey, I'm serious. Today, Catherine is here as well. Let's clear things up!" "Clear what? If you dare repeat such nonsense, I'll beat you up!" Blushing, Audrey looked at Catherine and changed the topic. "Kathy, why are you here at night? Is there something going on?" "Mr. Theo is here!" Catherine had just finished speaking when footsteps approached from behind.
Paxton appeared with Thomas, and accompanying Thomas was Scott.
Knowing that his grandfather was there to see Catherine, Scott even sacrificed his precious tto make a deal with him, exchanging it for the opportunity to accompany him to see Catherine.
"Catherine, I missed you so much!" Scott reached out to hug her, but before he could reach, Branden stretched out a leg, causing him to fall flat on his face.
Thomas, standing by, didn't mind. His grandson was mischievous and sometimes needed to be disciplined appropriately.
Scott lay on the ground, ready to explode. "How dare you schagainst me! Do you want to die?" he shouted inwardly.
However, when he turned around and met Branden's ice-cold gaze, Scott shrank his neck, quickly retreating. He couldn't afford to provoke Branden.
Scott looked up with a pitiful expression and gazed at Catherine." Catherine, it hurts!" "Stand up!" Catherine coldly uttered two words, and Scott immediately stood up, assuming a military posture.
Thomas approached Catherine, standing in front of her with a smile. "It's only you who can manage this rascal!" Upon hearing that Thomas had arrived, Rhys rushed to the scene and stood at the operating room door. "Mr.
Theo, it's really you. Long tno see." Rhys had the privilege of meeting Thomas at a previous academic symposium, and that had left him a deep impression.
Having only heard briefly from Catherine, Rhys hadn't expected her to bring Thomas over so quickly. This level of influence was not something an ordinary person could possess.
"Mr. Parry, please providewith Korbin's medical records. After reviewing them, I plan to see the patient and make a decision based on the condition." "Sure, I'll arrange it right away." After Rhys left, Thomas resumed a serious expression and looked at Catherine. "Rest assured. I'm here." He knew better than anyone what Catherine had been through and understood her attitude toward Korbin.
Catherine politely responded, "Thank you, Mr. Theo!" Soon, Rhys brought Korbin's medical information.
Finally, Thomas understood why Rhys had said their hospital wasn't confident about this surgery.
The operation was extremely risky, mainly because Korbin's body was too weak to withstand such a powerful procedure.
To save Korbin's life, the blood clots in his brain needed to be cleared. Many of these clots were connected to sensitive nerves, and mishandling them could lead to Korbin not even being able to get off the operating table.
This was why the hospital hesitated to proceed with the surgery; they didn't dare to offend the Swanns due to Korbin's special status.

Holding the information, Thomas said to Catherine, “The situation is
not optimistic. Letgo back and think! tonight. If can cup with a plan by 8 a.m. tomorrow, we'll proceed with the surgery immediately!" Twas running out. One more second of delay would put Korbin in more danger. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel

Catherine agreed, nodding. "Okay." Paxton took the initiative and respectfully invited Thomas, saying, Cwith me!" But as soon as he om finished speaking, Scott immediately rejected. He said, " No, I don't want to stay in a hotel." Scott looked at Catherine with pleading eyes. "Catherine, can ❘ stay with you?" As
long as he could live under the sroof as Catherine, he would be happier than anything else. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
To increase his chances of staying with Catherine, Scott turned to ask his
grandfather for permission.
The two engaged in a series of gestures that were incomprehensible to
outsiders.
To live under the sroof as Catherine, Scott reluctantly entered into an unequal
treaty with his grandfather.
After he agreed, Thomas said slowly," Cassie, I don't want to stay in a hotel
either. I want to be with you guys."
Catherine looked up at Branden.
Today, she would most likely stayat the Duncans' old mansion. Since it was the Duncans'place, she couldn't make the decision herself and waited for Branden"s
opinion.
Seeing Catherine look up at him, Branden understood her meaning and instructed Paxton beside him," Abrange a car to take Mr. Theo and the others to
the old mansion."
Excited at the mention of going to the old mansion, Thomas asked Cassie do you guys mean the Duncan's old mansion ?I mean, where Karl lives." "Yes."
Catherine nodded slightly.

Thomas seemed thrilled. "Great! I
haven't seen Karl in a long time. Perfect, I'll go meet him tonight" "Mr. Theo, do you know Karp? Thomas
joked and said, "Of course, I know him. Back in the day, we even
competed for the sgirl." Seeing that they were acquainted, Catherine had no more reservations and led them to the Duncans' old mansion together. Visit Popsnovel.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
