Chapter 213: Pre-Auction: Final Part! (1/2)

”S-Son!” Pedro's mom rushed towards him with teary eyes. Dr. Ecar Mahgilom and Pedro could only force out a smile in response as Pedro's mom grabbed his hands. ”How are you feeling son? Does it hurt anywhere? Don't hesitate to tell the doctor if it hurts somewhere, alright?”

Pedro simply closed his hands—holding his mother's hands and said in a weak voice, ”I'm fine, Mom… It just feels a little bit heavy…”

His mother nodded in response with a priceless smile painted on her face. This, in turn, made Pedro avert his gaze from his mother and shift his attention to his grandma—who had dark circles under her eyes. Then, he smiled and said, ”La… Your health… Sleep early…”

”Aish!” His grandma grumbles in response. It seemed like she wanted to hit Pedro but given his current state, his grandma could not help but retract her hand and flick her tongue instead. Then, she sighed heavily and said, ”Brat, you even got time to worry about me despite being in that state! Hurry up and recover fast so that I could get back my goodnight's sleep!”

”I will…” Pedro said in a weak voice. Then, he glanced to his mother and asked, ”Ma… How is dad doing?”

”Your father…” His mother sniffed a couple of times, before saying, ”He's fine! You don't need to worry about him. He had a lot of work in the company but it's nothing compared to the work he had last week. In any case… He'll be here after his office hours. I hope that he'll be able to see you awake. I am sure that he'd be very happy!”

Pedro simply forced out a smile and said in a weak voice, ”That… I can't… I need to log back…”

Pedro's mother and grandma could not help but frown in response. Fortunately, before his grandma could even scold him, Dr. Ecar Mahgilom walked towards Pedro and said, ”The patient is right, Madams! I'll tell you more about the details later, but it is truly best for Patient Pedro to stay in his hibernated mode. His recovery was at its fastest during his sleep. And based on how his body recovers, it might only take him a week or two before we can move him to the VIP ward and start his physical therapy partially. In any case… we need to let patient Pedro recover all his injury first before we proceed to anything else.”

”T-Then, please put him back to sleep, doctor!” She said, worriedly. ”If that would hasten his recovery then we could only wait patiently until he is fully healed!”

”Ma…” Pedro could not help but force a smile in response.

His mother simply patted his hand and said, ”It's alright, son! You don't have to worry about us! What is important is that you recover your health as soon as possible! Okay?!”

Pedro could not help but nod in response. At this moment, his grandma spoke, saying, ”Oi brat… You better recover fast! You need to properly introduce us to your woman! And… I want to see the future generation of this family, so you better not die on me!”

”Maaa!” Pedro's mother cried out of embarrassment to Dr. Ecar Mahgilom. On the other hand, Pedro could not help but avert his gaze from everyone else out of embarrassment.

While his grandma frowned and flicked her tongue in response as she heads out of the intensive care unit. At this moment, Pedro's mother could only glance back towards him with a smile on her face and said, ”Your grandma is right… I also can't wait to have grandchildren-s! So, you better get well fast, son!”

With one last tap on his hands, his mother stood and followed after his grandma—leaving the intensive care unit. She nodded towards Dr. Ecar Mahgilom as if mentally saying, 'Doctor, please take over from here.'

Dr. Ecar Mahgilom could only nod in response—acting as if he had not heard about the 'grandchildren' or 'future generation' part, and simply smiled towards Pedro, before saying, ”Can I know if you would like to log back into the game already?”

Pedro simply nodded in response and said in a week voice, ”Please…”

”Very well…” Dr. Ecar Mahgilom nodded in response and smiled at Pedro. Then, he said, ”Enjoy your recovery!”
