Kevin looked at Eddy and sighed. Then he turned his gaze towards Jayson and asked, "What's the condition of Bob's family?"
Jayson sighed and responded, "At first, their family wasn't doing bad, but after finding out that Bob had this kind of disease, they've been paying for all kinds of medicine in hopes of curing him. Now, their family is suffering from poverty and is currently having a difficult time."
Both Anne and Kevin were silenced. Once a child got sick, his or her parents wouldn't be able to just watch the child die. They had predicted that the situation would be like this already.
Kevin was rich and powerful. Although Eddy was sick, he spared no expense to have his son cured. For ordinary people, it was an unbearable disaster.
"Moreover, you should be well-prepared. Bob's parents are almost fifty years old. It was a miracle they had a kid at such an old age, so they doted on Bob. I've also talked to his parents in private. They said that even if they must sell their blood or kidneys, they're willing to do anything to have their son treated," said Jayson with a frown.
His words left Kevin and Anne at a loss for words. Because Bob's parents were older, they would naturally cherish their son more. However, this was definitely not good news for Kevin and Anne.
"It's useless to talk about it right now. Let's go to the hospital and see the child," Sam suggested as he looked at them.
No matter what kind of plan they prepared, they still couldn't catch up with all the changes happening. If that was the case, then they'd better go to the hospital first to meet the child and his parents.
Kevin exchanged glances with Anne and then they nodded at the same time. They had no choice but to do as Sam suggested.
However, they could imagine that Bob's parents would verbally abuse them the moment they met.
"Eddy, come with me. Aunt Emily will take you out to play, okay?" With a smile on her face, Anne gazed at Eddy with a relaxed look.
Eddy lowered his gaze and bit his lip. His face was full of grievances as he slowly looked at Emily before he lowered his head once more.
Anne knew her child well, and she knew that Eddy wanted to go along with them.
But what would unfold in that meeting. Everything was unpredictable. She was scared that Eddy would be endangered if he accompanied them.
"Emily, please look after Eddy." Anne was worried of her child's safety, so she ignored Eddy's plea and put him in Emily's arms.
Emily nodded in agreement.
Soon, Jayson brought Kevin and the others to the hospital to meet the poor child.
At this time, the child was sitting on the bed and playing with his toys without anyone to accompany him.
