An hour after Arcane woke up from his faint, they finally received news about Donald, who had just finished surgery. Marshal went downstairs to the hospital room where Arcane was staying.
"So how is he? What did the doctor say about my father?" asked Arcane, impatient to hear the explanation.
"I'll explain, but you have to be prepared for whatever I say."
That sentence was enough to make Arcane and Julian know that the answer would surely be the worst they had ever heard.
And sure enough, the good news was that Donald had been saved by the doctors. His wounds could be covered up even though he had lost a lot of blood. However, the bad news was that the man had not yet passed the critical stage.
"The doctor estimates that your father could experience this for an unknown period of time. So they can't predict when he will wake up," said Marshal, explaining what the doctor had told him earlier.
