Chapter 74 I Trust What I See
“Can I Dickson couldn’t help butask.
“Of course! You’re still young, and you have plenty of choices.â€
Dickson wanted to continue studying, but he wasafraidof going to school,
Back then, everyone called him the brother of a convict.
Understanding his worries, Sierra said, “You don’t have to go to school. You can study at home, and if there’s anything you don’t understand, you can ask me. If possible, you can take the SAT next year!â€
By then, he couldleaveMaviston. No one there would know about his past.
Sierra’s words lit up a spark of hope in Dickson’s eyes. He hadn’t realized his life could still go this way.
After thinking for a moment, he said. “Then I’ll study on myown! That way, I cantakecare of Grandma too.â€
He had a solid academic foundation, so self–study shouldn’t be a problem.Plus,if he struggled, he could always ask Sierra.
Over the past few days, he had talked a lot with Lily and learned just how tough Sierra’s life had been. Even though she wasn’t much older than him, shehadalready endured so muchhardship.
“Alright!†Sierra laughed heartily. “With you staying with Grandma, I’ll feel more at easeâ€
She had school and lab work, leaving little time to be with Lily. With Dickson around, they could take care of each other, and she would have one less worry.
“Sierra, can you tell me how Daphne died?†Dickson had been holding onto this question for a long time. He knew her death wasn’t as simpleasit seemed.
Sierra looked at him and said, “Just a little longer. I’ll tell you when the time is right.â€
“Sierra!†Dickson grew anxious. “You…â€
“Don’t worry. I’ll tellyousoon. It won’t be long.â€
Kason wouldn’t be able to hold back formuchlonger either.
Dickson was still young and impulsive. She didn’t want him to get into trouble.
It wasn’t worth risking his life overscumlike that. He deserved a betterfuture.â€
Seeing her insist, Dickson didn’t press further. Then, something suddenly came to mind. “Oh, right! Sierra, Grandma has been chatting with Dr. Zahn a lot these past few days. I think she might be trying to set you up with him.â€
“What?†Sierra was stunned, then quickly understood. She knew exactly why Lily was doingthis.
Lilywasworried she wouldn’t be around much longer and wanted to entrust Sierra to someone reliable.
Sierra felt both helpless andtouched.
Even in her condition, Lily still thought about her futureinsteadof herself.
“Goril
I’ll go talktoDr.ZahnTM
Sierra patted Dickson’s shoulder, signalinghimto go rest. “I pick you up tomorrow when you’re discharged andtakeyou
home.â€
Dickson watched Sierra’s figure fade into thedistance, hiseyesbrimming with tears. Hestillhad afamily.
After his mother died, he thought he was alone, that he no longerhada home. But now, someone was telling him they would

That felt wonderful
Sierra kunched on Oscar’s office door. Seeing her, Oscar was a little surprised. Thinking she was here to ask about Lily and Dickson’s conditions, he quickly said, “Ms Xander, your grandma’s condition has stabilized a lot since taking the medications you brought. Her cellular degeneration has slowed down significantly. As for Dickson, his injuries have mostly healed, but I’d still recommend taking him toca therapist after dischargeâ€
Dickson had been transferred to his care, and from the previous doctor, he had learned what had happened to the boy t made him just as furious.
“Thank you, Dr. Zahn. I really appreciate all your help Sierra said gratefully
The reason she hadn’t switched doctors all this time was that Oscar was extremely patient and treated his patients well.
So even though he was young, she had never considered changing doctors.
“I came because I heard my grandma has been causing you some trouble these past few days, Sierra said helplessly. “She’s old and worries about metoomuch, so… I’m really sorry. I’ll talk to her about it
Oscar was momentarily stunned, then coughed lightly. “It’sfine. She hasn’t caused me any troubleâ€
Then, after a brief pause, he looked atSierraand couldn’t help but say, “If possible, I’d like to be friends with you.â€
Sierra gavehimasurprised look.Doeshe mean what I think he does?
Oscar was a young man. She didn’t believe he was unaware of what was online.
Her past had been a hot topic on the internet. There was no way he hadn’t heard about it.
As if reading her mind, Oscarsaidwarmly, “I trust what I see for myself. You’re not who the internetclaimsyou to be
