Chapter 261 - Back To Youth
Chapter 261: Back To Youth
In the morning…
Zola stretched herself fully. It was the most comfortable sleep she had in a long while.
She felt completely rejuvenated as if even the air had become fresher.
Zola went to the restroom. She was about to turn on the tap when she saw herself in the mirror.
Zola was clearly stunned. She rubbed her eyes and looked into the mirror again.
She stared blankly at both the familiar and strange face in the mirror.
Who’s the person in the mirror?
Me?
No, the person was too young. She was at most in her thirties.
Zola pinched her own cheek. The person in the mirror did the same action.
Am I dreaming?
But then why would it hurt?
Zola splashed some water onto her face.
She lifted her head again… It was still the same young face.
“Ah…”
Still in her pajamas, Zola charged out of her room.
She saw Rasfa having breakfast in the living room. “Dad…”
When Rasfa turned his head around, Zola was bewildered once again.
Did I return to ten years ago??
“Zola, good morning. How’s your sleep last night?”
“Dad… you’ve become younger. Am I dreaming?”
“Haha… Enjoy your youth.”
“Dad, do you know what happened to us? You know, right?” Zola urged.
“The red wine yesterday was a gift from Chen.”
Zola was startled, her face full of disbelief.
“You mean, we’ve become younger because of Chen’s red wine?”
“Bingo,” Rasfa nodded. “What, can you still not accept it? If you really can’t, you can go and find Chen. Perhaps he has a way to reverse the effect.”
Zola could not believe the fact, but obviously she would not want to return to her original appearance.
“But all the people in my company will notice my change, right?”
“Why? Just rest at home for a few days and then go to work. Tell them that you went for plastic surgery. What can they do?”
Plastic surgery was rather common in America and most people could accept it.
Zola was still drowning in surprise and delight as she kept rubbing her own cheeks.
“By the way, has the person who burnt down Chen’s house been caught?”
“No, but he can’t run away,” Rasfa said confidently.
Every rich man has his unspeakable past.
The same was true for Rasfa. What he had on the surface was far from sufficient to support his current position as one of the most powerful people in Hollywood.
…
Fali did not go to work today. Although she had just bought many things the previous day, she realized that they were actually not enough.
For example, Paul delivered them some more daily necessities just the night before.
Nevertheless, they still needed more things, such as feminine products and dog food.
And also beer. It was an essential beverage for them to adjust their mood and the atmosphere.
Chen Zhao stayed at home to tidy the place up.
Just then, Risfar came with Lora.
Lora was sitting in a wheelchair. Risfar inspected the villa.
“Chen, if you need it, I can provide you with a much better place. This looks not much bigger than your original house.”
“I’m just staying here for a month or two, not forever. Once my new house is ready, we’re moving. My friend just happened to have it available, so I came here.”
“I have one too, and I told you that yesterday.”
“Alright Johnny, you didn’t come here to discuss where I should live, did you? Let me check Lora.” Chen Zhao lowered his head. “Hi Lora, I’m Chen Zhao.”
“Hi, Chen.” Lora was somewhat weak.
To be honest, she did not trust Chen Zhao. She felt that her husband had been deceived.
No hospital could cure cancer.
But Chen Zhao promised that he could cure the tumor in Lora’s brain. She was very suspicious about it.
Of course, she would not display her distrust.
“Okay, now, you should sleep.”
Chen Zhao snapped his fingers. Risfar realized that Lora actually fell asleep.
“Huh? Chen, how did you do that? Since Lora was sick, she has been suffering from insomnia. She could hardly sleep at all.”
“It’s just hypnosis,” Chen Zhao said emotionlessly.
“With just a snap of your fingers?”
Chen Zhao ignored Risfar and began to check Lora’s condition.
Actually, Risfar had already given him Lora’s medical history the day before.
“Chen, how is she?”
Chen Zhao took out the demonic potion that he had prepared earlier and fed it to Lora.
“Now bring Lora to the hospital and have an examination. Feed her this medicine at night.”
“That’s all?”
“What do you think? You want me to open Lora’s head here?”
“Err… It’s just much easier than I thought.”
“I prepared this medicine just for Lora. The portion just now should be able to inhibit the growth of the cancer cells, and the next portion will kill the cancer cells.”
“Do I bring her to the hospital now?”
“Yes. Call me if there’s a problem.”
“Will there be a problem?”
“I don’t think so, but I can’t absolutely guarantee it.”
…
Risfar brought Lora to the hospital, where she underwent various kinds of examinations.
During the process, Risfar felt extremely uneasy and worried.
He was worried that Chen Zhao’s treatment was ineffective and that Lora’s condition was already too severe.
Just then, Dean Perez walked out of the examination room with a report in his hand.
Perez was Lora’s doctor. Risfar had invited him just to treat Lora.
He was indeed an authoritative expert in this area, a judge for brain tumor patients.
If he said that a patient would recover, the patient would very likely recover.
However, if he said that the patient could only live for a certain amount of time, the patient would definitely die before that.
“Mr. Perez, how is it?”
Perez kept his head lowered, ignoring Risfar’s question.
He continued to stare at the report he was holding, frowning deeply. It was obvious he was deep in thought.
Risfar’s heart sank. Was it bad news?
“Mr. Perez, please tell me the truth. How’s Lora? How long does she have left? Let me be prepared.”
“I need to check Ms. Lora again,” Perez finally said.
“Why? Didn’t you just do it?”
