Chapter 337: Conflict (3)_1
Huo Jinnan uttered, "Very well," his gaze turning icy as he looked at Huo Qichang, "Such great authority the Commander Huo truly wields."
He picked up his phone and dialed Qin Shaojin, "Lawyer Qin, please come over, I’ve encountered a bit of a thorny issue here, the patient’s family apparently doesn’t have the right to know the patient’s condition."
As soon as the words had fallen, he hung up the phone, glanced towards Pan Wei, and released his grip, no longer showing any insistence on questioning him.
When Pan Wei heard this, he realized the situation had escalated; he had heard of Lawyer Qin’s reputation. If Qin got involved, he would obviously be at a disadvantage, but he couldn’t afford to provoke Commander Huo and Elder Master Huo either...
Standing there for a moment, he was unsure of what to do, looking with difficulty at the standoff between father and son.
Huo Qichang looked at Huo Jinnan and spoke gravely, "Your mother is inside, still in danger. What exactly do you intend to do now?"
Huo Jinnan let out a disdainful snort and loosened the Windsor knot on his tie, "Trusting once was enough; there are some prices I can’t afford. After losing my brother, I don’t want to lose my mother as well."
Hearing this, Huo Jinxue and Huo Jinbei looked toward Huo Qichang, suddenly understanding why their second brother had grown distant from their father over the years.
Was their eldest brother’s death not as they had been told?
When their eldest brother passed away, they were still young, not understanding anything!
But since then, the second brother had moved out of the Huo family mansion, and from that point, he became distant from their grandfather and father. After a serious illness, their mother rarely returned to the Huo family mansion, only a scarce once or twice throughout the seasons!
Thinking of this, Huo Jinxue could no longer remain calm and burst into tears, "Second brother, I’ll move in with you tomorrow!"
Huo Jinbei comforted Huo Jinxue while looking at Huo Qichang, his manner no longer that of a playboy, "Dad, what’s really wrong with mom? Why can’t we know?"
Huo Qichang stood there, silent, his solid frame shaking slightly before he steadied himself.
He turned his head, glancing in the direction of the elder master.
The elder master closed his eyes, his voice strained with difficulty breathing, "Dr. Pan, tell them."
Pan Wei looked at Huo Jinnan, Huo Jinbei, and Huo Jinxue, "Second Young Master, Third Young Master, Second Miss, Mrs. Huo is experiencing acute rejection. The situation is very dangerous this time, and if there’s no improvement, the only option will be to redo the heart transplant surgery."
Acute rejection?
Redo heart transplant surgery?
How could this happen?
Huo Jinxue swayed slightly, her vision darkening as she nearly fainted.
Huo Jinbei quickly held her, "Xiaoxue!"
Huo Jinxue stared at Pan Wei, "Why would my mother suddenly have acute rejection?"
Pan Wei explained patiently, "The most important treatment after a heart transplant is immunosuppressive therapy, which is a lifelong treatment. Acute rejection is the most common type of rejection and can occur at any stage after the transplant."
Huo Jinnan listened quietly and, after a while, looked at Pan Wei. Remembering how he had gone to register his marriage with Che Huan that day, and his mother had suddenly shown symptoms of acute rejection the night before, he asked, "After a heart transplant, such a condition shouldn’t be agitated, correct?"
Pan Wei nodded, "Yes, stimulation would likely make it easier to trigger."
Huo Jinnan nodded and looked in the direction of the elder master and Huo Qichang, "Why did my mother suddenly come back?"
"..." The elder master remained silent.
Huo Qichang glanced at Che Huan, "If it weren’t for your insistence on marrying Che Huan, this wouldn’t have happened."
