Layla turned to Ivy. "lvy, go home! You've already wasted a lot of tstaying by my side."
"I can always get a tutor afterward, Layla. | want to stay with you."
"I'm better now," Layla said and glanced at Robert. "Robert, take Ivy back. The two of you need to go back to school."
"Let us stay with you for a few more days!" Robert said.
"I'm fine. Besides, | have Mom, Dad, and Hayden with me."
"Fine!" Robert said in resignation. "But we are stilling to Bridgedale with you because | want to see Uncle Eric."
Layla did not argue further.
The four boarded a private jet and arrived at Bridgedale ten hours later.
Once they arrived at Avery's house, she grabbed Layla by the arm and studied her up and down.

"Mom, I'm really fine. | felt weak at first, but they drippedfor three days in a row, so I'm much better now," Layla said. "How is
Eric doing, Mom?"
Knowing that Layla would ask about Eric, Avery had already prepared her answer ahead of time. "He needs a new heart and lungs,
and we are searching for donors that match him."
Layla paled. "Is it that bad?"
"It's not as bad as you think it is. Once we find a matching donor, we can perform the surgery, and if everything goes well, it won't
affect his life in the future."
"It's not that easy to find a donor, right? Maybe you can use mine..."
"Layla, we need to findans that match." Avery took Layla's hands. "We will try our best to save Eric and ensure that he survives
with a healthy body. You used to say that | am the greatest doctor. Can you place your trust inone more time?"
"But you can't operate on him... That's not your specialty." Tears filled Layla's eyes.
"There are more brilliant doctors in this world than you can count on apart from me. Though heart and lung operations aren't my
specialties, | am confident, so you have to be as well."
Layla nodded. "I believe in you, Mom, and | believe in Eric as well."
"Alright. Let's eat! | had the servant make sof your favorite food." Avery led Layla to the dining room and signaled for the
others to take their seats. "You must all be tired after the past few days. Get srest after eating."
The servant started serving the food.
"Mom, Layla told Ivy andto go home," Robert said.
"I've already been discharged so you don't have to waste your twith me," Layla said. "If you want to stick around to go
sightseeing or something, | don't care, but Ivy has to go back to school."
Layla only said so because she knew Ivy valued her academic achievements.
"lI want to stay with you!" Robert did not dare make any jokes as Layla had not fully recovered yet
"I know that, but I'm safe now, and we have plenty of tto see each other in the future." Layla seemed to have grown more

"Since your sister insisted, you two should go back!" Avery said.
"Alright! Mom, can we visit Uncle Eric?" Robert asked.
Avery shook her head. "He is in the ICU right now, and visitors are not allowed."
The air grew thick with tension at Avery's words.
"I've been in the ICU before, so there is no need to be worried. Medical technology has be so advanced that anyone can walk
out of the ICU alive and well unless you are an old person, and all yourans are failing you," Mike chirped gleefully.
"I've stayed in the ICU before, too," Elliot said. "What Mike said is true."
"Layla, don't worry. Eric has the latest treatment available, so he will definitely survive," said Chad.
Layla kept her head bowed. "Let's just eat!"
After dinner, Elliot pulled Robert aside.
