Chapter 476 Conrad’s Spectacular Acting Skills

“Are you crazy, Yvonne? You’re not even in contact with that b*stard anymore. So, what does he have to do with you even if he’s dead?” Yvonne was talking to herself aloud.

She eventually placed her phone down and closed her eyes as she had her facial mask on. But after that little facial session, she still felt anxious. So, she couldn’t help but call the number again. Beep beep…

The phone rang a few times before the other party answered. Yvonne immediately asked, “Hello, was it you who called me just now?”

“Oh, it was my colleague who called. May I ask if you are the family of the phone owner? Please come to the hospital to pay the hospital fees.” “Hospital?”

“Yes. The patient fainted on the road and was taken to the hospital. The situation is bleak and needs further examination. But you’d better come over and pay the medical…”

“Doctor, the patient’s situation is very unpromising. Look, here are the test results. There are signs of cancer cells spreading.” “Cancer cells? Let me see.”

Yvonne was conversing with the doctor when another woman’s voice rang out on the phone. When she heard the other party say ‘cancer cells spreading’, her heart pounded in fear. How can this be?

“Hello, are you his family? Please hurry up and come to the hospital. The patient’s condition is in dire straits,” the doctor continued to say to Yvonne. Yvonne was frozen in place before she replied, “Okay, I’ll be there right away.”

Then, she hung up the phone and went to wash her face before quickly changing her clothes. She didn’t hesitate as she drove straight to the hospital.

It took half an hour to reach there, and Yvonne’s mind kept recalling the doctor’s words. As the doctor’s words echoed in her mind, the uneasiness within her swelled with each passing second.

The moment she arrived at the hospital, she inquired about the situation at the front desk and went to the ER. However, when she had just run to the corridor, she heard a commotion originating from the ER.

“Sir, your situation is very severe. Please cooperate with the treatment.”

“Yes, he’s right. You have liver cancer, and it has spread. You won’t have much time left if you don’t get treated in time.” “I know you must be worried about money, but is money as important as your body?”

A few medical staff tried to stop Conrad, but he pushed them away. “Let go! I told you, I’m fine. What do you mean I have liver cancer?”

“We did a CT scan on you, and it shows clearly that you do.” The doctor tugged on his arm. “You need to get treatment as soon as possible.”

Suddenly, he pushed the doctor against the wall and held onto the doctor’s neck with his hand. “I repeat, I am not sick. And, if this thing gets out, I’ll drag the hospital’s name to the mud!”

Everyone was stunned, and nobody dared to make a sound after hearing that threat.

Only then did he let go of the doctor’s neck. He let out a derisive snort as he walked in the direction of the elevator.

There, he saw Yvonne, who was standing by the doors of the elevator.

This caught him by surprise as he halted in his steps momentarily. Regardless, he continued walking toward her with furrowed brows.

Yvonne had just heard the entire conversation, and it was only then that she discovered that he was ill. But…

Is he acting?

Yvonne still had some doubts about the matter.

She thought that Conrad would talk to her when he laid his gaze on her. Instead, he stopped at the elevator entrance to press the elevator button, faced the other way, and didn’t say a word.

During the whole time, it was as though he didn’t see Yvonne, who was just standing at the side.

If it weren’t for the slight pause in his steps earlier, she would have believed that he hadn’t seen her. Although they were in close proximity, it felt like there was a chasm between them.

Even though she hadn’t seen him for half a year, her heart still pounded now that he was right before her.

Even the thought of him having cancer caused a burst of pain deep inside her heart.

Ding!

The elevator door opened when it reached their floor.

Conrad immediately entered the elevator. He didn’t even hesitate to press the close button, so the doors closed after him, and he left, just like that.

From the beginning to the end, he didn’t even glance at Yvonne; it was as if she didn’t exist.

At this time, a paramedic came over. “Are you the wife of the gentleman just now?”

“Huh? Oh, yes, I am.” Yvonne returned to her senses and asked anxiously, “What’s wrong with him? Why was he so emotional just now?”

The doctor standing before her was the same doctor Conrad had just choked. He pointed to the CT report in his hand and said, “The patient has advanced liver cancer and now needs treatment, but I see that the patient was agitated just now. It’s probably because he couldn’t accept reality. As the patient’s family member, you must persuade him to cooperate with the treatment. He must fight for that sliver of chance that the treatment takes, and he lives a long life. Otherwise, I’m afraid that he doesn’t have long to live.”
