章 878: The Surgery (I)

The date for Lianne's surgery was settled.

As per her request, no one other than the family and the Diamond Group knew about it. The latter was primarily due to Zero, of course.

Lianne was the type that did not want to talk about it because in doing so, it made the situation 'real'. It wasn't to say that she avoided facing it, but rather, she did not want to have to constantly answer people's questions, or have them give her advice and concern.

She wanted everyone to act normally, and thus, she could handle the day-to-day things.

Kyle was still worried, however.

He was caught inbetween and not sure whether he would step over the line.

On the one hand, as her mother, he wanted to be there for her. If he could, he would take her pain for her. He wanted her to talk to him, but he also knew that these were things that he wanted.

Not her.

Having to step back was hard.

One thing for sure, however.
