Sir Lloyd was a strong-willed person. If he knew that he could only spend the rest of his life in a hospital bed, he would not be willing to live for half a year.
People were always like this. They couldn't escape death, but they were also afraid of death.
Even so, he was unwilling to admit to this reality. He acted so rationally, but in his heart, he kept persuading himself that there would be a way. Everything would be fine.
Her dark eyes closed slightly. After a long while, he let out a sigh of relief and said, "Don't let my grandfather know about this for the time being. I'll tell him. You have to keep it a secret."
The doctor nodded and agreed. "If this is the request of the family, we will do as you say."

After leaving the office, Huston did not return to the ward immediately. Instead, he went to the dean's office and Kevin was checking Alivia's treatment plan. When Kevin saw him coming in, he could not help but be stunned. "How is it?"
Huston almost threw himself into the sofa. Looking at the ceiling above his head, his eyes hurt a little. "Oh no, there's not much time left."
Kevin's hand, which was flipping through the documents, paused. He had never expected such a result. "What?"
"Yes." As he spoke, his eyes turned red again. He raised his hand to block his line of sight. "That's what you're thinking."
There was a moment of silence in the office. He opened his mouth but could not make a sound. He did not even know what to say to comfort the man.
Huston didn't need comfort, so he didn't say anything. Anyway, it was just a few words that illness and death were normal. Everyone understood it, but when it was really carried out, who could stay out of it in the face of their close relatives?
The only thing he could do was stay by his side and accompany him quietly, waiting for him to accept this reality and cheer himself up.
But there was only one sentence that he had to say. "Huston, you still have wife and child."
No matter how hard and tiring the road of life was, he had already found someone to accompany him. Kevin had to tell him that he was not alone.
