Chapter 809 The Eighty Percent Probability (Part One)


    Diana had no idea that because of Joshua''s vague exnation when he told the servants to bring a


    bathtub and clothes for her, everybody jumped to the conclusion that Carlson had slept with her. Due to


    her obliviousness, Diana casually left after taking a bath and changing her clothes.


    "Why did the girl leave?" Everybody else was confused as they thought that the girl who had slept with


    Carlson should stay with him. They couldn''t understand why she just left.


    "Maybe, it''s because Prince Carlson refuses to take responsibility with what he did. She may not have


    any other choice but to leave. She must be so upset," someone presumed in a low voice, instantly


    putting Carlson in a very unforgivable position.


    "Oh my god! I didn''t expect that such a good-looking man like Prince Carlson would be like this. He has


    ruined such a decent girl''s reputation. How could he sleep with a virgin and refuse to take responsibility


    for that?" Immediately, all of the people became extremely dissatisfied with Carlson''s behaviors. They


    all believed that the prince tricked the girl into doing a momentous act but refused to marry her. Hence,


    he needed to have some ountability. Since the girl ran away by herself on horseback at full speed,


    she must have been extremely hurt.


    The people in the Birch Pass were open-minded. Most of the women in there were strong-willed and


    assertive. Moreover, they hated unfaithful men very much. Therefore, they were quite disappointed with


    what they thought Carlson did.


    However, Diana didn''t know that the servants in the general''s mansion at the Birch Pass had a bad


    impression on Carlson because of her. It was a big deal because it would cause a lot of trouble for


    Carlson in the future.


    Meanwhile, after vigorously chasing Harper and Matthew for several hours, Shawn finally caught up


    with them. Fortunately, he managed to do so before it got dark. "How can the two of you run so fast? I


    whipped my horse so hard that I felt pity for the poor animal. But still, I couldn''t catch up with you until


    now," he sighed.


    Lifting the curtain of the carriage, Harper said, "Shawn, you made it just in time. I have something to


    discuss with you."


    Shawn was a little surprised to hear that. He responded, "You have something to discuss with me? I''m


    surprised. I wonder what kind of thing is making you this cautious and serious. Even I''m curious about


    it."


    "Come inside the carriage. Let''s talk on the way," Harper said while gesturing for him to enter the


    vehicle.


    After hesitating for a moment, Shawn got off his horse and handed the reins to his deputy general.


    Then, he approached the carriage and got on it. He sat face to face with the couple. Thest time that


    Harper talked to him in a serious manner, she had asked him to take in and reorganize the Northern


    Expeditionary Army in the North Domain. He wondered what she was about to talk with him this time.


    Would she want him to take in and reorganize the army in the South Domain as well? Or would she


    want him to help in plotting against someone?


    "What''s the matter? Why are you so serious?" Shawn asked. He was a little nervous. After all, nothing


    could make Harper this serious other than very important issues.


    "Here''s the thing. I acquired a few medicinal herbs from the Labyrinth Swamp which are very rare. I''m


    aware that you younger sister''s heart disease has been getting worse recently. What I want to say is


    that I''m eighty percent sure that I can cure her. But before you get your hopes up, I have to tell you that


    there are risks. The operation that I need to perform on her is very critical. If I make a single mistake or


    if the procedurepletely fails, your younger sister will die. So, I''mying it all out on you—the risks


    and the sess rate of the operation so you can consider this situation carefully. If you think it''s worth


    a try, I''m willing to cure her," Harper mindfully and hastily said when she noticed the nervous


    expression on Shawn''s face.


    "Eighty percent sure?" Shawn asked in disbelief. His younger sister, Wendy had been born with


    congenital heart disease. Over the years, they had taken her to a lot of well-known physicians. All of


    them said the same thing—it was impossible to permanently cure her. Even Harper had said those


    exact words in the past. But now she was telling him that there was a way to possibly cure his younger


    sister, but the sess rate was only eighty percent.


    "Yes, only eighty percent of sess rate. Although there''s a high probability that I''llpletely cure


    her, there''s also a chance of failure. So, I''m giving you the choice. It''s up to you whether or not you''re


    going to let me heal her," Harper said slowly.


    Upon hearing that, Shawn became silent for a long time. His family had always regarded Wendy''s heart


    disease as a wound in their hearts. If she could be cured, it would certainly be the most wonderful news


    toe into their lives. It wasparable to a miracle that they had always hoped, but never expected


    toe into their reality. However, if something were to happen to her during the operation, like Harper


    had warned him, she''d disappear from the world forever. If they refused the treatment, she would just


    continue her current state—alive, but barely living. Moreover, if they didn''t do anything, she would just


    die in a few years. It was like waiting for the final chord to be cut, a grim reality that their family had


    been facing every single day of their lives.

    "Please cure her!" Shawn suddenly eximed with so much conviction right about when Harper


    thought that he had given up. "If you sessfully cure her, we''ll be extremely lucky to have her back in


    our lives, for real this time. If not, we won''t me you. I guess, if that were to happen, fate had decided


    it. Your Highness, please cure my sister."


    Matthew gave him a sincere and understanding smile. He had expected that Shawn would choose to


    cure his younger sister. In fact, Shawn had never been an indecisive man. Since Harper had said that


    she was eighty percent sure that the treatment would seed, it also meant the probability of failure


    was very low, so Shawn would likely choose to take the risk. That was not only because of the high


    sess rate, but because he did trust Harper.


    "Don''t you need to discuss this with your family first? Or, don''t you want to discuss it with your younger


    sister? They might not be on board with the idea. You don''t have to give an answer right away. I''ll be


    staying in the imperial capital for quite a long time. You can even make your choice until I''m about to


    leave the imperial capital," Harper suggested.


    "Thank you for your concern. But I''ve already decided. Her disease cannot be allowed to go on any


    longer. If she refuses to be treated now, she won''t be able to live for many years. Since you''re eighty


    percent sure, why don''t we give it a try? You don''t need to be pressured too much. I know it''s a very


    delicate situation since a person''s life is at stake but please go ahead and treat her with confidence. If


    anything goes wrong, I will take full responsibility," Shawn firmly stated.


    "Such being the case, I''ll begin to prepare for the treatment as soon as I get back," Harper said with a


    smile. She breathed a sigh of relief when she saw how determined Shawn was. Now that he had made


    those bold derations, the only thing Harper needed to focus on was to try her best to cure Wendy.
