Billionaire Ex-wife: I Can't Live Without You
Chapter 2184

Seeing Nathan standing there, looking worried, she understood what was on his mind and gently touched his face to comfort him.

“Don’t think too much.

Maybe it’s just a minor illness.

It might not be related to that virus.

”

Although she was nervous and felt a weird sense of unease, she tried to calm Nathan down.

Kyson sat dumbfounded.

The mention of the “virus” felt like a knife to his heart.

His face turned pale, and anxiety gripped him.

The $404 Virus was something Nathan had contracted because of him.

If Colby was affected…

A wave of frustration and guilt washed over Kyson.

He didn’t dare contemplate the consequences.

“I’m sorry,” he murmured, lowering his head as tears welled up in his eyes.

The guilt was almost unbearable.

Lucinda and Nathan fell silent, the weight of the situation pressing down on them.

Kyson swallowed hard.

“If Colby’s poor health and this illness are because of me, I’d never be able to forgive myself.

As the babies‘ godfather, I can’t atone for my sin even in death.

”

Nathan’s expression turned cold.

“Since you know death can’t atone for your sin, you’d better live well and do everything you can to help the two innocent kids.

”

Kyson nodded dejectedly.

The corridor of the hospital was thick with tension and worry.

The three of them waited anxiously, yearning for the results yet fearing the worst.

Half an hour later, the door of the examination room finally opened.

Nathan, Lucinda, and Kyson rushed inside, desperate for answers.

The doctor looked at them, and then at the examination report, and had to break the news.

“The baby is weak, likely due to a congenital condition.

His heart is also not in good shape, exhibiting ventricular premature beats.

Without proper treatment, this could progress into serious myocarditis.

”

The doctor studied the data and continued with a heavy heart, “As Colby grows, these underlying weaknesses will only become more pronounced and potentially more severe.

”

A somber silence enveloped the examination room as everyone absorbed the grim prognosis.

Lucinda’s eyes filled with tears, her heart aching as if it were being squeezed.

She reached out, took Colby gently from the nurse’s arms, and began soothing him.

Colby had no idea he was sick.

His eyelashes fluttered weakly as he looked at Lucinda, flashing an innocent, sweet smile.

Nathan’s hand clenched into a tight fist, his heart heavy with self-blame as he observed the tender interaction between Lucinda and Colby.

Kyson wasn’t faring any better.

He turned to the doctor and asked, “Have you tested Colby’s blood for viruses? Could a viral infection be the root cause of his congenital issues?”

The doctor stood frozen for a moment, a perplexed expression crossing his face before he finally spoke.

“This situation is exceptionally rare among the general population, so we don’t have specific tests for viruses here at the hospital.

You might have to send samples to the military research lab.

”

He turned to Nathan and Lucinda, who were standing nearby.

“Mr.

and Mrs.

Payne, do you know what kind of virus this might be? Your child is so young, and if this weakness is virus-related, it’s possible the mother could be a carrier.
