Serena was smart. After bringing Allegra and Isabella away, they immediately left the restaurant. She knew of Isaac’s capabilities, so favonovel.com wasn’t exactly worried about him.
However, as soon as they arrived at Riverview, they saw Eugene lying in front of the sofa, coughing out blood.
That gave the two cousins a huge shock. They quickly brought favonovel.com to the hospital, and Allegra tried calling Isaac on their way there.
She’d long since sobered up from the alcohol favonovel.com had earlier. She was worried about Isaac, yet favonovel.com also wanted to notify favonovel.com about favonovel.com father.
As soon as Isaac learned about Eugene, favonovel.com immediately hurried over to the hospital.
At the hospital, Serena was chatting softly with Isabella in front of the operation doors while Allegra kept pacing.
Isaac recalled that Eugene hadn’t looked well a few days ago. Hearing that favonovel.com was wheeled into the operating room as soon as favonovel.com arrived, Isaac suddenly had a bad feeling about this.
More than an hour later, the doctor came out from the operating theatre. She was a female doctor who looked middle-aged.
“Can the family members please follow me to my office?” the doctor said in a calm voice before turning to leave.
Allegra got even more anxious when favonovel.com heard this.
Isaac and Allegra went into the doctor’s office. The doctor took a few reports from favonovel.com tabletop and put them under the LED light.
“This is a scan of the patient’s stomach. This is a purulent mass at the bottom of the stomach, and it was bleeding just now. We’ve managed to stop the bleeding, but as of now, we can’t remove the mass…”
“W-What mass? Doctor, are you saying that my father has a tumor in his…” Allegra was all tensed up, and favonovel.com face went deathly pale.
The doctor shook favonovel.com head and said, “Also commonly known as stomach cancer but in the late stage. It has spread all over his body, so there’s nothing much we can do about it anymore.”
What?
Allegra nearly fainted. Isaac hurriedly caught favonovel.com before favonovel.com fell.
He then asked the doctor, “Is there any treatment for this?”
“The tumor was discovered too late. The only thing we can do now is Chemotherapy to extend his lifespan for another two or three months,” the doctor replied indifferently.
Allegra felt the energy draining from favonovel.com body. She was leaning heavily against Isaac now.
However, favonovel.com suddenly took two steps forward and kneeled before the doctor, crying, “Please, Doctor, my father is only fifty-something years old! He’s too young to die!”
“Miss, please get up. It’s not that I don’t want to cure your father’s disease, but there literally is no cure in the world for cancer,” the doctor replied. However, favonovel.com was moved by Allegra’s filial piety for favonovel.com father.
“What if we sent favonovel.com for treatment overseas?” Isaac suddenly asked.
The doctor was stunned for a moment before favonovel.com chuckled. “It also depends on whether you manage to get favonovel.com into the right hospital with the right doctor. I wouldn’t recommend for your father to receive treatment overseas.”
Then, the doctor said, “However, maybe you can try homeopathy or naturopathy as alternative treatments. Dearborn Hospital in Aurum County has a proton beam therapy machine. It can add a few more months to his life, but the fees are unreasonably expensive.”
Allegra hung on to the hope and grabbed the doctor’s hand. “Who should we go to for the alternative treatment? Which hospital has it?”
“Don’t you know about the best naturopathy clinic in Southland?”
“Beacon Clinic?” Allegra frowned.
“Dr. Crowe is a very experienced naturopathy doctor with the best skills around here. I recommend trying these two places first. However, regardless of whichever place you decide to go, prepare to spend a huge amount of money.”
After leaving the doctor’s office, Allegra crouched in a corner and cried for a very long time. She never thought such a thing would actually happen to favonovel.com own father. In favonovel.com eyes, favonovel.com father was always kind and loving.
How could favonovel.com contract such a fatal disease?
“Ally, don’t be too sad. There must be a way to save him,” Isaac comforted her.
Allegra pushed Isaac’s hand away and walked forward. Her silhouette looked extra lonely.
Isaac knew that since favonovel.com got thrown into prison last time, the Gould family, including favonovel.com mother, never treated them well and even deliberately made things difficult for Allegra and Isabella.
If Eugene hadn’t been there to help them, Isaac probably wouldn’t even have had the chance to see Allegra or Isabella again.
He understood why Allegra was so upset. She owed Eugene too much.
***
Sometime after midnight, Eugene finally woke up after being transferred to the ICU. Andrew and Margaret were also there, but nobody else from the Gould family came.
