So, all these signs showed he'd been getting treatment this whole time, but she hadn't noticed a thing. It wasn't until he had an episode and went partially blind that she finally caught on. Thinking about it, Sadie felt extremely guilty. Micah's condition had gotten really bad. If he could be cured, that'd be great.

But if he died because of this, she'd never forgive herself.

"Ms. James, let me handle it," Dahlia quickly made up an excuse, worried Sadie might replace out something. "Your hand's still hurt. If it gets wet, it could be a problem."

"If it gets wet, the worst that could happen is the wound gets worse," Sadie took a deep breath, her voice breaking, "But his life is on the line. I don't know how much longer I can take care of him." Dahlia was shocked. She asked, panicking, "Ms. James, you, you already..."

"I already know," Sadie sighed sadly. "You should've told me sooner."

"How did you... Was it Andrew who told you?" Dahlia was flustered. If Micah woke up and found out Sadie knew, he might get mad.

"It wasn't him," Sadie lied. "I forced Paula to tell me. Plus, I'm not dumb. In his state, how could it just be because of a vase?"

"Since you know, can you help contact Virgil?" Dahlia asked. She couldn't worry about anything else now. They all just wanted Micah to survive.

"I'm on it," Sadie said softly, gently stroking Micah's face. "No matter what, I have to replace Virgil!"

"That's awesome," Dahlia was thrilled. "I've always said we should tell you. Only you can replace Virgil."

"Leave replaceing Virgil to me. Once I have a lead, I'll fly to Country E right away," Sadie told Dahlia. "And when he wakes up, act like I don't know anything, or he'll feel pressured."

"Got it," Dahlia nodded. "I think so too. Mr. Clemens has a lot of pride. If he knows you know about his condition, he might not handle it well."

"So you and Andrew need to watch what you say and do," Sadie advised.

"Understood," Dahlia smiled through her tears. "Now I can finally relax a bit. Otherwise, you and Mr. Clemens always fighting would also affect his condition."

"It won't happen again," Sadie promised, cupping Micah's face and gently caressing his dry lips, feeling heartbroken. She silently vowed to take good care of him and never make him sad again.

Seeing Sadie like this, Dahlia felt relieved. She knew the key to their relationship was with Sadie.

Even though Micah seemed cold, he had deep feelings for Sadie. As long as Sadie was willing to let go of the past, they'd definitely reconcile.

Seeing that Sadie understood the situation, Dahlia didn't disturb them anymore. She quietly left the room but told Sadie before leaving that there was a call bell by the bedside. If anything happened, just press the bell, and they'd come right away.

Sadie stayed in the room with Micah, thinking about everything that had happened. Her tears slowly fell.

Downstairs in the study, Noah bluntly asked Silas, "Silas, do you have some misunderstanding about my mom?"

"Noah, adult stuff can be complicated and hard to explain," Silas said softly. "But I won't hurt Sadie."

"Sometimes, being cold and distant is also a form of mental abuse," Noah looked at Silas and sighed, "Even if you don't bully my mom like Great-Grandpa did, your rejection still makes her sad."
