Beyond the Divorce by Third Blossom novel Chapter 452

My head buzzed.

Late-stage liver cancer? My hands turned cold.

I was concerned but never imagined it would be this severe.

How was I going to tell her? I sat there blankly as the doctor talked about the treatment plan.

He finally sighed and shook his head, saying there was little hope.

I was no longer Grace's daughter-in-law, but she was still Ava's grandmother.

She was the last person in the Murphy family who truly cared about Ava, and time was running out.

All I could see was Ava tightly embracing Grace.

After all, we had lived together for many years.

No matter how she treated me, those memories of living together were good.

I didn't even know how I left the doctor's office.

If Grace hadn't seen me come out and called my name, I might have forgotten she was waiting outside.

"Chlo, what did the doctor say?"

She stared at me intently, looking a bit worried.

"He didn't say much.I knew the doctor, so we talked for a while.You'll be fine.He gave you some medicine and advised you to rest more.You should eat better, too."

I reassured her, "I've got the medicine.Let me take you home now."

"No need.I can manage on my own!"

She insisted firmly.

"I'll get the medicine and tell you how to take it."

I held her hand to get the medicine for her.

While sitting in the lobby, I labeled each bottle with instructions on how to use it.

Then I handed them to her.

"Take your medicine on time and get plenty of rest! If you're feeling unwell, you can call me! Of course, when I’m not too busy!"

"Alright!"

There was no trace of her earlier aggressiveness.

Now, she seemed vulnerable.

"And Ava..."

She could not stop worrying about Ava.

I thought about it and realized it was probably time to bring Ava back.Her words were proving true—she was running out of time.

"She'll be back soon!" I said calmly.

"Let's go, I'll take you home!"
