Chapter 1063 Leaving It All To You
Inside the room, Spencer carefully examined Terence's body.
Afterward, Spencer said, “It's a cartilage injury. This is quite common, mostly among athletes, middle-aged or older people. It's not a big issue!”
Upon hearing this, Natasha immediately asked, “Is there a way to treat it?”
“Rest more and move less to reduce the wear and tear on the cartilage. Also, taking some health supplements will provide some relief,” said Spencer.
Natasha memorized his advice and asked, “Is there any other way?”
“Eat nourishing foods like fish stew,” Spencer explained patiently.
Natasha listened, nodding thoughtfully, then asked, “When can we see an improvement?”
“You'll see an improvement in at least a month!”
“Isn't there a faster way?”
Spencer explained, “Surgery is an option, but considering Old Mr. Watson's advanced age, I wouldn't recommend it. After all, any surgery carries a certain level of risk. Moreover, even if we opt for surgery, it's merely a supplement to medication. The medication still needs to be taken. I would suggest he avoid surgery if the medication can manage the condition well.”
Natasha listened on, not doubting Spencer's judgment in the slightest.
As Natasha was still pondering other options, Spencer added, “However, this is just my preliminary assessment. After all, this isn't my area of expertise. If you're still worried, I can recommend an
orthopedist. He is at the top of his field. If you take your grandfather to see him, it should put your mind at ease!”
Natasha nodded and replied, “All right. I'd like to meet him.”
“Great!”
At that moment, Terence, who was standing nearby, chimed in immediately, “No need, this is just an old ailment of mine. It doesn't always act up. Don't go through all that trouble!”
Just as Natasha was about to speak, Spencer interjected from the side, “Old Mr. Watson, as a doctor, I must tell you that if there's something wrong with your health, you should seek medical attention promptly. Otherwise, minor issues may develop into major ones. Early treatment leads to quicker recovery. Not only can it prevent suffering, but it can also put your family at ease. Why wouldn't you want that?”
Spencer knew just how to speak to his patients, and his last sentence did the trick.
Upon hearing his words, Terence turned his gaze towards Natasha. She was standing nearby while holding her mobile phone as if waiting for an answer.
A moment later, Terence declared, “All right! Let's see the doctor!”
His agreement finally put a smile on Natasha's face.
After the examination on Terence, Spencer and Natasha left the room.
In the corridor outside, Spencer called the orthopedist he mentioned earlier.
Spencer finished his call and said, “He will be at the hospital the morning after tomorrow. I'll go with you then!”
Natasha nodded and replied, “Okay. Thanks.”
They walked side by side, and when Spencer heard her words, his eyebrows furrowed in confusion. “Thanks? What for?”
“Grandpa is indeed quite stubborn. After everything you said earlier, I don't have to put in much effort to convince him!” said Natasha.
Spencer nodded and teased, “In that case, you really ought to thank me properly!”
“I will transfer the payment to your card, including compensation for your help these past few days!” Natasha said.
The offer caused Spencer to scrunch his brows again. “Natasha, can't you find another way to express your gratitude?”
“Why resort to other means when money can solve it?” Natasha retorted.
Spencer looked at her, rendered speechless by her retort. “Natasha, can't you put a little emotion into your actions?”
“Even between brothers, accounts should be settled clearly. Besides, I don't like being in debt to anyone!” said Natasha.
“The question is, am I just anyone to you?” Spencer asked.
Natasha pondered his question for a moment and mused out loud, “Isn't it precisely because you're not just anyone that I'm giving you a reward?”
Her reasoning did make quite a lot of sense.
Yet Spencer knew that wasn't the case at all.
He mulled over his options before sighing heavily and wailing, “Natasha, Natasha. Ever since I met you, I feel increasingly worthless!”
“The reward I'm offering is not small at all!” insisted Natasha.
Spencer asked, “Is this even about money?”
“Then what else could it be about?” Natasha asked in return.
Spencer almost choked on his frustration. Natasha remained as argumentative as ever.
“It's no big deal. Since you're so generous, I won't stand on ceremony. As usual, send it to my card!” Spencer said, enunciating each word clearly.
“Or should we top up Thalia's card?” Natasha raised an eyebrow.
The mention of Thalia caused Spencer to narrow his eyes. “You're teasing me, aren't you?”
Natasha gave him a slight smile and drawled, “I'm helping you woo your wife. What could you possibly object to?”
“I'll woo her myself!”
“Fine, I'll be waiting for your good news!” After saying this, Natasha walked away directly without waiting for Spencer to say anything else.
Spencer stood still, watching her retreating figure, a wry smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
Still, he felt relieved to see that Natasha was doing well. He had originally thought that it would take her a long time to overcome her grief, but it seemed that he had underestimated her.
With that thought, he glanced at his wristwatch, knowing that Thalia should be waking up soon. He headed straight to the restaurant to get some food.
After leaving Terence's place, Natasha went straight to visit Kenneth.
However, just as she reached the door, she bumped into someone coming out from inside.
Natasha was slightly taken aback to see Liam and exclaimed, “Old Mr. Hamilton!”
Liam nodded at her in response. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
“Kenneth, uhm, he—”
“Come with me!” Liam suddenly announced.
Watching his retreating figure, Natasha followed with a sense of puzzlement.
Liam promptly took a seat in the living room.
When he saw Natasha standing aside, Liam opened his mouth and ordered, “Sit!”
Natasha quickly sat down.
Just then, Dan emerged from a different part of the house, his arms full of things.
When he reached them, he placed the stack of items on the table.
Natasha watched in silence, believing it had nothing to do with her.
“Is everything here?” Liam asked Dan.
Dan nodded and affirmed, “They're all here.”
At that moment, Liam nodded, seemingly in understanding.
Picking up the topmost document, Liam glanced over it briefly. Then, looking at Natasha, who was sitting by indifferently, he suddenly called out, “Nat.”
Upon hearing her name, Natasha looked up at him. “Yes, Old Mr. Hamilton!”
“Take a look at these!” said Liam as he placed the documents in front of her.
Puzzles, Natasha took the documents from his hand and read them.
That was a project proposal.
Natasha's brows furrowed in confusion when she saw the proposal. She looked up at Liam and asked, “Old Mr. Hamilton, is there something wrong with these proposals?”
“Can you understand their contents?” asked Liam instead.
Natasha nodded. “I can understand them, it's just, I don't understand what you're trying to do here.”
Her response flooded Liam with relief. He looked at her and said softly, “As long as you can understand them, that's good enough. These are some of the company's important ongoing projects, all things that need to be completed. Before, Kenneth was handling them. When he wasn't around, I took over. Now, all these will be handed over to you.”
Upon hearing that, Natasha's eyes widened in surprise. “Me?”
