Chapter 75: Wishes and Wants

After Dr. Silva spoke with him, Julien came in and sat in a chair beside the bed. "I agree with Lacey. Let's keep her in the castle and do the tests. If it comes back that she has appendicitis, then we'll rush her to the hospital." Then Julien thought of something. "Could you take the samples and run the tests here in our suite?" Julien sighed, shaking his head. “Lacey's been through enough, and she really needs to rest."

Dr. Silva nodded. "Against my better judgement, I'll agree. But if she starts running a fever or has more abdominal pain, we'll rush her to the hospital."

“Agreed,” Julien replied.

“Both of you, please don’t talk about me as if I’m not here,” Lacey said.

Julien nodded, patting her leg. “Sorry, darling.”
