Chapter 451

Boom!

Joanna's vision darkened, and she almost lost her balance.

The doctor paused before continuing. "It's still early now. The chances of recovery are still relatively high. Hurry up and discuss with Mr. Everett to confirm the treatment plan."

"Alright, I understand." Joanna lost all her strength, and she could not function well. She almost missed what the doctor said

next.

After leaving the doctor's office, Joanna sat helplessly on a chair in the corridor.

She could not recover for a long time.

After more than twenty minutes, Joanna's chaotic heart finally calmed down a little. She took out her phone with trembling hands and dialed Bruce's number. Beep, beep, beep.

Bruce was still in a meeting. When he saw it was Joanna calling, his eyes darkened, and he said to everyone. "I'm sorry. I'm going to take a call."

After speaking, he picked up the phone and walked straight out of the office. "Hello."

"Bruce..." Joanna's voice was trembling.

Bruce took a deep breath and asked gently. "What's wrong?"

Joanna gasped and said nothing, tears rolling down her cheeks.

"What's wrong? Why aren't you saying anything?" Bruce asked gently.

Joanna tried to calm herself down and said sadly, "Bruce, come to the hospital now!"

"What happened?"

Joanna didn't say anything and just sobbed silently.

Bruce's heart skipped a beat. He had a bad feeling. Tm in a meeting now. I'll go over immediately after the meeting."

"Okay!"

In the conference room.

Some shareholders started complaining again. "Why did Mr. Everett go out again?"

"Whose call is so important? He left us here again."

A short and chubby shareholder teased resentfully, "Stop complaining. Who asked him to be the shareholder who owns most of the shares? We can only listen to him." "Sigh. This is bad."

As they were talking, Bruce returned. His expression was much gloomier.

"I'm sorry, where was the discussion just now?" Bruce sat back on the main seat and asked with a frown.

The secretary quickly reminded him, "Oh, we were just talking about financing!"

"Yes, that's right. Everyone can continue to voice out their opinions."

"Mr. Everett, this is how I see financing..."

A few higher-ups expressed their opinions one after another.

Bruce, on the other hand, was distracted.

The meeting that was supposed to last three hours ended half an hour earlier.

"Let's stop here for today's meeting. If anyone has any different opinions, you can go back and write a proposal and submit

1. it.

"Goodbye, everyone."

As soon as the meeting ended, Bruce left the company and rushed to the hospital.

"What's the matter with Mr. Everett? He was late, and now he's in a hurry to end the meeting." "Who knows? Mr. Everett has always been going his way. Nobody dares to say anything." "That's right. Mr. Everet is no different from a ruthless king! It's infuriating to work with him."

Chapter 431

"Alright, let's go!"

Some shareholders were not happy with Bruce to start with Now, they were even more resentful.

Half an hour later.

Bruce rushed to the children's hospital.

At the door of the ward, Joanna was waiting for him. "Jesanna, what's wrong?"

Joanna's eyes were bloodshot. When she saw Bruce, her tears flowed uncontrollably. "Bruce, the test results for Lilia are out." Looking at Joanna's sorrowful expression, Bruce's heart turned cold. He tried his best to comfort her. "Tell me! I'm listening."

"The doctor said that Lilia's leukemia has relapsed. She might have to undergo another chemotherapy and bone marrow transplant."

After saying that, Joanna could not help buit cry.

When Bruce heard this, he took a few consecutive deep breaths.

"Don't cry. What did the doctor say?"

Joama's thin shoulders trembled as she sobbed. She could not say a word.

Bruce took a step forward and held her tightly in his arms. "Don't be so worried. Medicine is so advanced now. There won't be any problems.

"If Lilia's illness could be cured last time, it will be cured this time."

When Joanna heard this, she cried even harder. The leukemia her daughter had last time almost killed her!

The second relapse was even more dangerous.

"Isn't it just another bone marrow transplant? I can do it!" Bruce comforted her gently.

"Bruce..." Joanna's eyes were filled with tears as she leaned into his arms.

Although she hated Bruce to the core, she was extremely grateful for it.

He was also a very qualified father.

"Don't cry. Our daughter will be fine."

"I'm here. I'll protect you guys."

Joanna sobbed so hard that she didn't know what to say. She just leaned into his arms and cried.

Why was God so unfair?

Why did her daughter suffer so much?

"Let's go in and take a look at Lilia."

"Alright."

In the ward.

Lilia was still lying on the hospital bed, surrounded by Barbie dolls and cute plush toys. It didn't look like a ward but like a princess's castle.

"My baby Lilial" Bruce pushed open the door and entered.

When Lilia saw her daddy, her eyes instantly lit up. She said sweetly, "Daddy, Lilia misses you so much!"

"Yes, Daddy misses baby Lilia too." Bruce came to the bed and gently bent down to hug his daughter.

"Haha!" Lila laughed and hugged his daddy's neck tightly.

Bruce rubbed his daughter's neck. His face was filled with a gentle and loving smile, but his eyes were extremely red.

"Mommy, Daddy is so handsome today."

"Yes, he is."

Suddenly, Lilia saw her mommy's red eyes, and her face turned pale. "Mommy, are you crying? Why are your eyes so red?" "Mommy... Mommy didn't cry!" Joanna forced a smile. Unfortunately, she couldn't hold back her sobs at all.

Joanna quickly turned her head away. She did not want her daughter to see her cry. She was even more worried that her daughter would be afraid when she knew her illness had relapsed.

Lilia looked at Bruce and asked innocently, "Daddy, why is Mommy crying? Did Daddy make Mommy angry again?"

Chapter 451

"Maybe because Daddy is too handsome. Mommy cried with joy." Bruce's heart felt like being cut by a knife, but le still joked gently.

"Haha!" Lilia was instantly amused.

Soon, the treatment plan for Lilia was finalized.

The first step was to receive chemotherapy. Once her condition was under control, they could proceed with a bone marrow transplant.

Because of the chemotherapy, Lilia's long hair had to be shaved again.

On the day of shaving. Davian and Irvin also came to the hospital.

When the two little guys learned that their sister was having chemotherapy again, they cried so much. When they arrived at the hospital, the two little guys dared not cry anymore.

"Lilia, we're here to see you."

"Brothers, I miss you guys so much."

"We missed you too!" Davian and Irvin came to the bed with forced smiles and looked at their sister with heartache.

Bruce took a deep breath and looked at his daughter with a smile. "Baby Lilia, we're going to play a game today!"

"What game?"

"Let's shave our heads and play the little elf, okay?" Bruce tried his best to speak in a humorous tone.

When Lilia heard this, her big eyes instantly dimmed, and the smile on her face disappeared. She said nothing.

She had been sick since she was young and had undergone many surgeries, big and small. Before the last chemotherapy, her

hair had been shaved off.

"Daddy, Mommy, am I going to have surgery again?"

Lilia's voice was soft. Her timid appearance made Bruce and Joanna's hearts ache even more.

Bruce gently stroked his daughter's hair. "My baby, the doctor wants to perform a small surgery on Lilia! After the surgery. Lilia will recover very quickly."

Lilia closed her eyes and said, "Daddy, Mommy, Lilia doesn't want to shave. Without hair, I can't play the role of a little princess." As Lilia spoke, her tears fell, and her small hands tightly protected the ponytail on her head.

Davian held his sister's hand tightly. "Lilia, I'll shave my head with you!"

Irvin said, "Yes, I will shave my head with you. After shaving, the three of us will be bald together."

Bruce also squatted down gently and looked at Lilia with a smile. "Daddy will also shave my head with you, okay? When the time comes, we'll grow hair together. Let's see whose hair grows first."
