The Runaway Groom

Chapter 386

Layla saw the stunned expression on Irene’s face.

“Is everything alright?”

She peeked at the CT scan as she spoke, but she did not understand what she was looking at.

As a doctor, however, Irene did–there was a distinct nail–sized object in Layla’s hippocampus. Irene could tell from both position and the imaging that it was no

tumor.

Irene then asked, “What are your headaches like? Do they last for a while, or are they just short episodes on each occasion?”

Layla thought about it. “I don’t know… I think it just happens whenever I try to remember, but I tend not to remember anything, and my head will hurt briefly if I try to focus too hard. There are occasions when it lasts, especially recently–not even medication helps.”

Irene seemed to realize something then, and after another glance at the CT imaging, she said, “Let’s go back now.”

Layla nodded, but asked again, “I thought you look a little serious just now. Did my condition deteriorate?”

Irene shook her head. “No, you don’t have to worry… By the way, you said you had a daughter? Didn’t she come with you?”

“She’s in Minerva–it’s where we live. Mick wouldn’t have returned if not for my condition.” Layla said.
