The Runaway Groom
Chapter 953

Stan was slightly relieved to hear the doctor's words and walked up to ask, "Are you saying that treating it will be easy?"

"Relatively speaking, blindness caused by external factors should be easier to treat than blindness caused by illness," the doctor explained. "However, we need to find out what's actually causing his blindness first, to decide if it's treatable.”

The cause was certainly very important in treatment, though Stan became weary from the doctor's response.

He thought then that everything the doctor said was pointless!

Still, the doctor glanced at Stan and said, "Please keep it down. I'd rather not be disturbed while I examine the patient."

Stan slid a peek at Isaac to see that the latter was pursing his lips and glowering.

Stan promptly turned silent—another word, and Isaac would really get mad!

The doctor opened Isaac's eye just then and held his flashlight in front of his pupils, asking, "Can you see this light?"

Isaac could somewhat see it, but it was very faint.

"Do you feel any pain?" the doctor asked.

"No," Isaac replied.

"My guess is that it's a retinal rupture,” the doctor said. "But I suggest a trip to the hospital for further confirmation. That said, if it's caused by a concussion, it would not be that hard to treat it."

Isaac was relieved inwardly. "Understood."

While the doctor packed up his briefcase, Isaac told Stan, "Escort the doctor out of here."

Stan did not move, since he was convinced the doctor was right. "Aren't you going to the hospital?"

And once they performed further examinations, they could determine the cause and treat it. After all, it might get more serious if they had to delay it!

However, Isaac did not bother to explain himself. “Just go.”

Stan finally turned to the doctor then. "This way, please.”

Once they left and closed the door, Isaac called Zachary into his study. Being blind was inconvenient, and he had to make a few calls.

Right now, he must confirm if James was really captured, and the priority was to save James if that was the case.

After Zachary came in, he said, "Open the top right drawer on my desk. There's a brown notebook—take it out, and call the sixth number from the top on the first page.”

Zachary did as he said, finding the notebook and calling the number as Isaac instructed, with the phone on his desk.

Once the call was answered, he passed the speaker to Isaac.

It beeped a few times before someone picked up, and a man spoke with a Dunesian accent. "Jefferson."

"A friend of mine was abducted in Dunesia. I need to find him." "Alright, I'll look. Do you know who the captors were?"

"No," Isaac replied. "That's why I'm asking you."

"Haha!" The man laughed for a while. "Guess I have to help since it's you asking. Anyway, come by and visit when you're free."

"The check is on me," Isaac replied.

Hanging up, Isaac then turned back to Zachary. "Second page, first number.”

Zachary repeated the routine, and the call was answered quickly again. However, Zachary did not hear what the other end was saying, but Isaac's expression turned grim and dark.

"Yeah. Make it fast," he eventually said flatly and clearly.

"Okay," the person on the other end replied.

Isaac then hung up and told Zachary, "Send the location where you found me to this email address.”

"Okay," Zachary replied.

As he opened the laptop, he asked, "Do you think James will be alright?"

Isaac was silent, reluctant to speak.

Zachary pouted. "Fine. I misspoke again, huh?"
