A Journey from Bitterness to Truth (Matilda and Yvan) novel Chapter 764

Matilda was caught off guard at the mention of Yvan. It hadn't crossed her mind.

But Logan had thought of him. Given that Yvan had once been on death's doorstep with a ruptured kidney in Australia and had made a miraculous recovery, it suggested someone with exceptional medical skills must've been at his side. Now, with R7CKY facing a similar peril, perhaps... perhaps Yvan could lend a hand.

In that moment, Logan cast aside any past grievances with Yvan, his only thought to save his mentor. He turned to Matilda, pleading, "Mom, please, call Yvan. He has to know someone who can fix this."

Gritting her teeth, Matilda's mind raced back to a time when she and Chloe had been under attack at the Plum Resort, guarded by a man with a sniper rifle, his face brimming with determination.

She clenched her fists. She couldn't just abandon R7CKY! Finally, she relented, "Okay."

Yvan's heart raced when he saw "Matilda" flashing on his phone screen late at night. He hesitated for a few seconds before answering, disbelief in his voice, "Matilda?"

Her initiating the call was like a potent shot of adrenaline to Yvan's heart. "What's up?" he asked.

Holding the phone tightly, Matilda's words came slowly but with resolve, "Yvan, sorry for calling so late, but... I might need your help."

In that moment, Yvan's mind raced with thoughts of heroics.

Matilda quickly but calmly explained the situation. Yvan's expression darkened as he listened, then decisively said, "Alright, I'll call someone. Send me your address, we'll try to make it within an hour."

After all, there was some distance between Sea City and Whty City.

After Matilda thanked him, Yvan smiled faintly at the phone before the call ended.

Staring at his phone screen, Yvan quickly dialed Lance, who was irked at being woken up, "Do you know you just interrupted my beauty sleep?"

"Five hundred thousand."

"I'm not that kind of person..."

"Eight hundred thousand."

"I'm in!" Lance was immediately getting dressed and gathering his medical kit. Holding the phone between his shoulder and cheek while putting on gloves, he instructed Yvan, "Send me the address. I'll head out now."

Both men hit the road in their sports cars, flooring the gas pedal. What was normally a journey of over an hour was completed in just under sixty minutes. When they arrived, Logan rushed to open the door, with Ventus keeping watch over R7CKY. As the door swung open, Lance and Yvan stood side by side.

"How bad is it?" Yvan didn't beat around the bush with Matilda. Ensuring the safety of the injured was the priority. Stepping inside, the strong smell of blood hit him. He frowned, "Looks like severe blood loss, huh?"
