"Right, right!"
At Natsuki Minamiya's suggestion, Kensei Aiba snapped out of his daze and fumbled for the call button to summon a doctor.
Before long, several people in white coats entered the ward.
The ward housing Councilor Aiba's wife received special attention from the hospital, with staff on standby at all times. When the medical staff arrived, Kensei Aiba hurriedly asked them to examine his wife.
After a moment of surprise, the medical staff split up and got to work.
They did not understand why, but they could hardly ignore Kensei Aiba's request.
"How is this possible?"
Soon... the test results came back, leaving every member of the medical staff stunned. All the patient's vital indicators had miraculously returned to normal levels.
In other words, her terminal illness had been cured!
"Councilor Aiba, could you tell us how your wife's illness was cured?"
The lead doctor grabbed Kensei Aiba's hand, his voice urgent and fervent.
If he could learn how Kensei Aiba's wife had been cured, he would surely be able to conquer many other difficult diseases.
"It was..."
Kensei Aiba was about to explain when he caught Elysia shaking her head out of the corner of his eye. Perceptive as he was, he understood her meaning: she did not want unnecessary trouble.
"Ahem... a mysterious person helped us."
"As for that person's identity, they asked me to keep it confidential. I can't tell you."
"Well... sigh."
Deeply disappointed, the lead doctor shook his head and left the ward with a sigh. Kensei Aiba clearly did not want to talk. How could he dare force him?
"Sister Elysia, this is wonderful! Mom's all right!"
Only after the doctors confirmed it did Asagi Aiba finally feel completely reassured. She looked at Elysia with a delighted expression.
Her eyes shone with gratitude
