Marriage Beyond Redemption

Chapter 15 After the Operation

Peyton took a grateful look at Alwyn. Alwyn nodded to her and turned to go through the formalities for her.

The nurse patiently explained to Peyton, “Ms. Schmitt, you need to be treated for a long time. You will take chemotherapy drugs through injections, and needle treatment is needed every time for the injection. So your blood vessels have to bear the damage brought by chemotherapy drugs. In severe cases, there will be drug extravasation, and many chemotherapy drugs are corrosive. In order to prevent it, we suggest you first get an infusion port in your arms.”

“To ensure that the drug can be smoothly injected into the vein and various organs of your body, the access will be placed in the vein in advance, and the advantage is that it can be used for a long time, and it will be safe and convenient for the next chemotherapy, but the

disadvantage is that you can no longer lift heavy objects with this

arm.”

Peyton agreed with the nurse’s advice and had a minor operation before chemotherapy, having an infusion port buried in her arm.

Peyton’s body had antibodies to the anesthetic, so she refused to use the anesthetic. When the scalpel cut her fragile flesh, she just frowned. and said nothing.

The doctor said, “Few girls can bear such pain like you.”

Peyton said helplessly, “No one cares about me. I have to be strong.”

She thought of the emergency treatment of her preterm delivery after she fell into the water a year ago. Even after the injection of anesthetic, she could still feel the clear pain of the scalpel cutting her abdomen

open, and that day she fainted and woke up time and again on the operating table due to the pain.

At the same time, Nolan was waiting outside the delivery room of Helena. Even though Peyton screamed asking to see Nolan, he never showed up.

Since then, Peyton would never utter a word no matter how painful she felt.

The next day after chemotherapy, all kinds of side effects appeared, and Alwyn went through the discharge procedures for Peyton.

During the short journey from the inpatient department to the underground garage, Peyton rested countless times. She felt dizzy and nauseous at the slightest movement, and her strength seemed to have, been emptied.

Alwyn sighed. He squatted down and held Peyton in his arms. Shocked, Peyton hurried to refuse, “Alwyn, please don’t…

Alwyn did not follow her this time, but said in a dignified tone, “You are in poor condition now. If you don’t accept my help, for the sake of your health, I can only call your family. Your only family that can come now is Nolan, right?”
