Chapter 3012
"What did the doctor say?" Nicole asked.
Patricia responded, "The doctor said it's fine once the fever subsides. He just needs a good rest after
waking up."
Nicole nodded, pulled up a chair, and sat down, inviting Patricia to do the same.
Patricia took the seat.
After glancing at Ellar, Nicole turned to Patricia and said, "I want to talk to you about your injury."
As Nicole looked at Patricia's face, Patricia instinctively covered it with her hand.
Biting her lip hesitantly, Patricia responded, "Ms. Riddle, at first, I had hoped there might be a way to
restore my face. I was prepared for the possibility it couldn't be healed, but now..."
Patricia looked toward Ellar, still unconscious on the bed, and said with a pained expression, "I don't
want him to do this for me, so I think I want to give up."
"Patricia, there's still a chance of success. Besides, Ellar has already invested so much; it would be a

She understood Patricia's immense pressure, but felt it would indeed be regrettable to give up at this
point.
"If I had known from the start, I wouldn't have let Ellar do this. However, in the past few days, Martin
and Ellar have made significant progress. Seeing Ellar's determination, I decided to give it one more
try."
"Ms. Riddle, I don't deserve his sacrifices, and it's really... too dangerous," Patricia said, her voice
growing softer, revealing her deepest concerns.
Even if Ellar appeared okay at the moment, the continuous drug tests might harm his body in the long
run.
"I get your concerns. Rest assured, I won't let any harm come to him," Nicole reassured, then added,
"He's family, after all."
"But... I shouldn't let him to do this," Patricia said, chewing her lip, troubled by Ellar's sacrifices that she
couldn't repay.
Nicole gently patted Patricia’s hand and comforted her," Don't worry about that right now. What's
important is your treatment."
"I still can't accept it. I don't know how to repay this," Patricia sighed, her inability to accept this with
ease and peace of mind weighing on her.
"You shouldn't feel pressured. I'm not asking for any compensation. I just want to do something for
you," Ellar's voice, slightly hoarse, interjected.
Nicole and Patricia turned toward Ellar, realizing he had woken up.
"Don't move just yet. I'll call the doctor," Patricia said, stopping him as he attempted to get up.
Ellar waved her off, "I'm fine."
"Take it slow," Patricia insisted, helping him sit up and then fetching a pillow for him to lean on.
"I’m not that weak," Ellar said, pulling Patricia toward him." Sit down and listen to me."

Patricia, biting her lip, hesitantly sat down.
"Now that you know, I won't hide it from you. Martin's research is indeed making progress, and now
that Nicole has agreed to help us, you should have confidence. We can't give up now," Ellar urged
Patricia.
Taking a deep breath, Patricia, her eyes somewhat more resolute, responded, "If that's the case, then
I'll do it myself from now on."
"No," Ellar immediately objected, shaking his head. "You should just wait for the final results."
"If you want me to accept the treatment, then I'll do it myself, or else I won't accept it at all," Patricia
declared firmly, refusing to budge.
If this was something that had to be continued, she was ready to bear the consequences herself.
"Patricia..." Ellar tried to persuade her, but Patricia shook her head and turned to Nicole, "Ms. Riddle, is
that okay?"
Understanding Patricia's stance, Nicole thought for a moment before nodding. "Alright."
"Nicole!" Ellar sounded somewhat helpless. The matter was considered settled when Nicole agreed.
Nicole glanced at Ellar, "Your body is indeed too weak. You should rest first."
