Chapter 1724

Before long, the attending doctor and nurse walked over.

"I heard that the patient is awake. That's great." The attending doctor was relieved that Renee wasfeeling better. If Renee was still unconscious, he would need to use some risky techniques to save her."Mr. Jovan Hunt was very worried about you, you know. He didn't leave your side for the past threedays, and neither ate nor drank. If you didn't wake up, I'm afraid he would have starved to death beforewe could save you!" The attending doctor joked as he did a basic check-up on Renee.

Jovan scratched his hair in embarrassment and mumbled, "Doctor, stop. I wasn't guarding her... I wasjust too lazy to move, eat, or drink." He didn't want others to see him as a love-struck fool, but hisexcuse seemed to prove just that.

"Look how flustered he is, Ms. Everheart..." The attending doctor glanced at Jovan and teased, "I'veperformed a lot of surgeries and watched many people wait for their loved ones to wake up, but I canvouch that he's the most attentive and loyal one. A small accident happened during the surgery, and hegot so anxious that he almost wanted to die with you. He's a loyal man!"

Awkward, Jovan kept his head hung and kicked the floor. "Don't exaggerate, Doctor."

Renee felt uneasy. Jovan's intense love moved her, but it also stressed her out. It would become a debtif he was too loyal, and she didn't want to owe him anything. "Yes, he's very loyal and passionate, butit's a pity that he's directing those feelings at the wrong person." Renee indifferently added, "I can'treciprocate his feelings, so I don't deserve them."

The atmosphere grew awkward and tense, and the doctor nudged his glasses and hurriedly said,"Okay, we should get back to business. We'll remove your bandages and see how well your eyes haverecovered." "Yeah, we talked so much that we forgot the most important thing." Jovan urged the doctor,

"Remove her bandages now!" "Okay." The doctor had surgical gloves on, and after disinfecting hishands, he slowly removed the bandages around Renee’s eyes.

The darkness Renee had become accustomed to was now giving way to a vague and mist-like ray oflight. It was slightly blurred, making her feel like she was in a dream.

"Ms. Everheart, how do you feel?" The doctor asked Renee tentatively.

"I think... it's blurry. I feel like I’m floating on clouds-it doesn't feel real," Renee answered honestly.

"That's normal. After all, you're using somebody else's eyes, so there'll be a slight resistance. It'll getbetter as you get used to them..." The doctor tried to comfort Renee, "Try to open your eyes slowly toget used to the light." "Okay." Renee nodded obediently and gradually opened her eyes. The first thingshe saw was the doctor's white coat. As she looked further, she saw Jovan, and suddenly, she felt sad.She wished that Stefan could have been the first thing she had seen.
