Chapter 656
Once the results were out, Noah looked at the lab report with a stony face.
Howard was taken aback by his serious demeanor and asked, “Noah, say something. How
are Elliot’s test results?”
Elliot sat quietly on the hospital bed, waiting for Noah to speak.
Noah remained focused on the lab report for a while.
After some time, he finally said indifferently, “The medication I’ve prescribed recently has
been effective in slowing down the virus’s spread. However, I still need to take a scan of
his head.”
“That sounds like good news. Noah, when will you show a bit more emotion on your face?”
Howard commented, shaking his head in exasperation.
Noah did not respond and left to find Yosef to arrange a head scan for Elliot.
As Noah walked away, Howard murmured, “I can’t help but wonder if there’s any girl that
can make you drop this aloof demeanor.”
Just outside the door, Noah heard every word and stopped in his tracks.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFor the past six months, a persistent girl had confessed her feelings to him countless
times. Due to Elliot’s situation, he had not seen her for almost a week.
She had probably given up and returned to Farlem.
Noah’s gaze turned cold, and he quickly readjusted his focus and strode away.
Another half–hour passed, and Noah returned with Elliot’s brain CT scan.
“He lost his sight because, after the blue serum failed, the virus spread rapidly, causing a
tumor to develop in his brain, putting pressure on the central nervous system,” Noah
explained.
“A tumor?” Howard was stunned.
Although he was not well–versed in medical matters, he knew that anything related to
tumors was not a good sign.
He instinctively glanced at Elliot on the hospital bed.
Noah continued, “It’s benign, just a small tumor. We can remove it through surgery, and
with post- operative medication, his eyes should recover.”
Howard breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “Noah, can you please explain everything in one
go next time? You scared the hell out of me.”
Hearing the best–case scenario, Elliot finally smiled and teased, “Seems like doctors enjoy
scaring their patients.”

Noah ignored their banters, standing by the bedside table and organizing Elliot’s medical
records.
Then, he calmly explained the arrangement, “I recommend doing the surgery as soon as
possible. Take him to the general hospital in town tomorrow afternoon. I’ll be there earlier
for preparation, and we’ll conduct the surgery secretly.”
Howard nodded. “Alright.”
It was nearly 10 p.m. when they left the lab.
The snowfall outside intensified, and Noah held an umbrella to shield them from the
snowstorm
while Howard assisted Elliot.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThe three hurried toward the outdoor parking lot.
Suddenly, with a whooshing sound, a snowball flew from the rear, heading straight for the
back of
Elliot’s head.
Sensing it keenly, Noah quickly used the black umbrella in his hand to block it.
“Who’s that? Trying to attack others from behind? Are you asking for trouble?” Howard
spoke with a hint of menace, narrowing his eyes.
A young couple emerged from a black van behind them.
The girl jogged over, bowing in apology. “I’m sorry, we were having a snowball fight and
accidentally hit you. Is this gentleman okay?”
As she spoke, she approached Elliot.
Noah swiftly blocked her line of sight, stating, “He’s fine.”
Howard was far from convinced and scoffed, “This is the entrance to the lab, and you’re
playing games here in the middle of the night? Who are you trying to fool?”
