Revenge of the Hideous Lady (Xyla Quest) -
Chapter 2488
However, even so, Hannah and her family were happy enough.
The next day, Hannah's father and her brother were taken into the operating room together. The surgery lasted for three hours and was a success.
Hannah's father and her brother stayed in the operating room to be observed for a while. Once they were awake, they were brought into a ward together.
The ward they stayed in was an ordinary ward with two beds. They each occupied a single bed.
Hannah sat next to her father and looked after him while Mrs. Roland sat next to Hannah's brother and looked after him.
As Hannah's father and brother had just come out of surgery, they were both very weak. They didn't even have the strength to speak. They could only close their eyes and rest.
Hannah and her mother were very quiet. They silently wiped Hannah's father and her brother's bodies with pieces of cloth.
Although all four of them did not speak a word, they were all happy on the inside. That's because the surgery was a success. This meant Hannah's father could live... Even though they had spent all the money they owned, they were fine as long as Hannah's father could survive. As long as he was alive, they'd still have hope...
After a while, Hannah's father began to speak. He looked guiltily at his wife and children. "I'm truly sorry for getting you involved. I'm a loser. Not only did I fail at managing the company... I can't even manage my own body..."
"I can't believe I fell ill and had to spend so much money..." He added.
He already felt extremely guilty about troubling his wife and daughter because of his family's bankruptcy. Now, he was in such a terrible state physically which made him feel even more guilty. In fact, he thought he wasn't worthy of being a man at all. Hannah gently rubbed her father's shoulder after hearing what he said. "Daddy, don't say that. You're not a burden to us at all. We're all family. We're supposed to go through thick and thin together..."
"Back when you had money, you didn't abandon us. Now that you're in a difficult situation, we naturally won't abandon you either..." Hannah added.
She meant every word she said... Her father was a very good man. Back when he was rich, he did everything he could to provide for the family. He'd give them whatever they asked for, even when it was seemingly impossible. A good man like him deserved to be treated with kindness by the three of them...
Mr. Roland was touched by her words.
Meanwhile, Hannah's brother also
chipped in. "That's right. Everyone in the family should go through thick and thin together... It's alright not to have money. As long as we're alive, we can continue making money. I believe we will be able to start
anew."
Hannah's mother immediately nodded after hearing this...
Hannah's brother continued speaking. "Alright. Let's not talk for now. Daddy and I need to rest. We're all out of energy..."
With that, he directly closed his eyes.
He never thought his father was a
burden. On the contrary, he felt very lucky and thankful that he could save his father. He didn't dare imagine what would happen if he wasn't a compatible kidney donor for his father...
For the rest of the month, Hannah's brother and father stayed in the hospital to recuperate.
Hannah and her mother stayed by their side and never left.

One day, after school, Leon and
Lynette walked out of their classroom as usual. When they walked past Hannah's classroom, Leon subconsciously glanced inside.
He still hadn't seen Hannah.
What happened? Where had she gone?
"Leon, are you looking for Hannah?" Lynette asked.
Leon frowned and didn't say anything.
Lynette took his silence as a form of acknowledgement...
