Abel Scott, Back from the Dead.

CHAPTER EIGHT

“Abel, how do you propose we fix my daughter's blindness?” Mr Zack Lawrence immediately asked.

“Well a friend of mine, who happens to be a medical doctor, has offered to help us fix Sarah's blindness.”

“I know it's a lot to take in, I know you people have actually tried a lot of doctors, but my intel has assured me that Doctor Philip really knows how to fix Sarah.”

“Your intel?” Mrs Elena Lawrence asked, her eyebrows furrowed in a show of curiosity and bewilderment.

“I meant my friend who is a doctor, he can fix Sarah.”

“I have already booked an appointment at his office  tomorrow morning.” Abel Scott said as he gazed at Mr Zack Lawrence, his father-in-law.

“Very well, Abel, I will permit you to take my daughter for the twentieth hospital check since she got her eyes damaged.”

“Wait a minute, do you actually keep tabs on that, dad?” Sarah Lawrence immediately asked as she stared at her dad's direction even though she was blind.

“Yes, Sarah, I have actually been keeping tabs on a lot of things especially your medical treatment ever since you had this issue.”

“I have also been wanting to ask you, if you happen to get your eyes back would you be able to recognise the man who you were trying to save the night of that incident?”

“I mean would you be able to recognise…”

“Dad, I heard what you said the first time and I think I might be able to recognise his face…if it happens that I see him again.”

“I think what we all should be looking forward to at the moment is getting to see the Doctor that Abel just mentioned, Doctor…”

“Doctor Philip…his name is Doctor Philip.” Abel Scott immediately added as he sat down and took a bite of the sushi he had left earlier.

“In that case I think everything is settled all we need to do now is wait for tomorrow morning.”

“Abel, thanks again for looking out for my daughter in the most possible way you can.” Mr Zack Lawrence said as he stared at Sarah Lawrence.

“She would have done the same for me Mr Zack.” Abel Scott immediately replied.

“What the heck are you yapping about, let me once again remind you that the only reason a poor man like you ever got close to my beautiful daughter is simply because of the misfortune that came upon her as she was discharging her duties as a medical personnel.”

“I wouldn't be surprised if she finally divorces you once she is able to see.” Mrs Elena Lawrence muttered to herself.

Her words were so low that no one heard what she said.

“Abel I really appreciate everything, thanks a million for reaching out to Doctor Philip for my sake.” Sarah Lawrence said as tears dripped down her eyes slowly.

The next morning…

Mr Jackson Alfred sent a convoy to pick Abel Scott, Sarah Lawrence and her mother.

“Mr Jackson Alfred, what is the meaning of this, how do you expect us to ride to Doctor Philip's hospital in a convoy?” Abel Scott immediately asked over the phone as soon as he spotted the convoy in front of the mansion.

“Lord Abel Scott, if you aren't okay with the plan I will immediately call them off.”

“Please do call them off immediately, I think just the black Escalade SUV will be okay for us.” Abel Scott said as he stared out the window, his gaze still on the convoy outside.

“Okay I will call them off immediately.”

In a matter of minutes, Sarah Lawrence and Mrs Elena Lawrence were done and ready to move.

Mr Zack Lawrence opted to stay behind at the mansion as he was still yet to recover completely.

The black Escalade SUV immediately took Abel Scott, Sarah Lawrence and Mrs Elena Lawrence off to Doctor Philip's private hospital.

The hospital was well sophicated, a two storey building with an underground parking lot.

Moments later, Doctor Philip is attending to Sarah while Mrs Elena Lawrence and Abel Scott are seated just behind.

“Well Mrs Sarah…”

“It's Sarah Lawrence, Doctor Philip.” Sarah immediately helped the doctor as he took note of vitals.

“Doctor Philip, we have actually been to a lot of hospitals and I just want to know are there an chances of Sarah being able to see again with those two eyes?” Mrs Elena Lawrence asked, her voice was a bit above whispers.

“You see, Mrs…”

“Mrs Elena Lawrence.” Abel Scott immediately chipped in helping Doctor Philip.

“Okay, Mrs Elena Lawrence, we are the best in this kind of medical issues.”

“If it wasn't possible I really don't think whoever sent you here would have done so and paid the full surgery and treatment f*e in advance.” Doctor Philip said as he adjusted his stethoscope around his neck.

“How much are we talking about here?” Sarah Lawrence immediately asked, her voice was laced with curiosity and bewilderment.

“Some guy named Mr Schmidt, the new CEO of Lotus group dropped off some moments ago and paid the full surgery and treatment f*e of twenty million dollars to have Sarah Lawrence treated immediately.”

“Wait! What he paid twenty million dollars?!”

“Abel, are you aware of this?!” Mrs Elena Lawrence asked as she stared at Abel Scott who didn't look surprised at all.

“Umm…no, I'm actually as surprised as you are, Mrs Elena Lawrence.”

“I really think this Mr Schmidt of a guy is a generous fellow.”

“Don't you think so Mrs Elena?” Abel Scott asked as he stared at Mrs Elena Lawrence who had her jaw dropping in shock and bewilderment.

“Yes, he really is!”

“Unlike you who is poor, broken and still squatting in your in-laws house.”

“I really wished it was the Mr Schmidt that had married Sarah and not you poor and beggarly man.” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as she stared at Abel Scott.

“I bet she wouldn't even believe me when I finally tell her that I'm the Mr Schmidt everyone is talking about.” Abel Scott muttered to himself.

Sarah Lawrence was even more shocked than her mother.

“Mom, after this treatment, I don't care whether it will be successful or not, we really need to find out who this Mr Schmidt is and really thank him in person.”

“He has really done more than enough, from the mansion to dad's hospital bills and now this too.”

“We really need to find out who he really is.”Sarah Lawrence said as she waited for the doctors.

“I totally agree with you, Sarah, but first let's get the surgery done and we can then find a way to find Mr Schmidt, the CEO of Lotus group.” Mrs Elena Lawrence said as Doctor Philip, two other doctors and some nurses immediately walked in.

“Let's get the surgery done.” Doctor Philip said as the nurses helped Sarah Lawrence out of the office to the surgical unit.
