Spencer was treating Lina while Magus watched from the side. Having been through a lot, he had become much more composed.
He didn't speak. He just stood quietly to the side, watching and waiting.
Anthony was the same.
Anthony finally spoke when Spencer withdrew his hand, asking, “How is it?”
Spencer glanced at Anthony. “It's pretty much as I assessed earlier. She has a major depressive disorder. In addition, she has been overworking for a long period, and she also has other concurrent illnesses.”
“Then, is there a cure?” Anthony asked.
“What do you think?”
“I'm not a doctor, so how would I know?” Anthony said.
Spencer stood up. “Others may not have it, but I do.”
Magus' eyes lit up considerably after he heard that. It was as if he was a lost traveler who had suddenly found directions and had his hopes rekindled.
Upon hearing that, Anthony also breathed a sigh of relief. “How long will it take?”
“Her physical ailments can be quickly cured as long as she takes her medicine on time. But when it comes to matters of her mental illnesses...” As Spencer spoke, he looked up at Magus. “They require a different kind of healing.”
“How should we treat it?” asked Magus.
After a moment of thought, Spencer said, “Actually, it's not difficult. Just don't let her worry, get angry, or be scared. Try your best to keep her happy.”
“That's it?” Magus asked, seemingly in disbelief.
“What does she like?” Spencer asked.
Speaking of that, Magus was taken aback. Over the years, they had experienced so much that they had long lost their original selves. As for Lina, she had been plagued by illness for a long time, so he had never heard her mention what she wanted or what she liked.
So, when confronted with that question, Magus found himself momentarily at a loss for an answer.
Upon seeing that, Spencer furrowed his brows. “You don't even know what she likes?”
“I...”
A faint smile played at the corners of Spencer's mouth. “And yet, you claim to love her?”
Magus pursed his lips, only now realizing how thoroughly he had neglected Lina. Spencer is right. How can I still dare to say I love her after all this?
Magus looked at Lina, his eyes filled with regret and heartache.
“If you don't know what she likes, her condition will be a tough problem to fix. Let's talk about it when you figure it out!” With that, Spencer got up and left.
Magus looked on, his brows furrowed in deep thought, yet he didn't know what to say.
He knew, whether as a lover or a family member, he was far from competent. Therefore, he had nothing to say about Spencer's indifference.
Spencer wos treoting Lino while Mogus wotched from the side. Hoving been through o lot, he hod become much more composed.
He didn't speok. He just stood quietly to the side, wotching ond woiting.
Anthony wos the some.
Anthony finolly spoke when Spencer withdrew his hond, osking, “How is it?”
Spencer glonced ot Anthony. “It's pretty much os I ossessed eorlier. She hos o mojor depressive disorder. In oddition, she hos been overworking for o long period, ond she olso hos other concurrent illnesses.”
“Then, is there o cure?” Anthony osked.
“Whot do you think?”
“I'm not o doctor, so how would I know?” Anthony soid.
Spencer stood up. “Others moy not hove it, but I do.”
Mogus' eyes lit up considerobly ofter he heord thot. It wos os if he wos o lost troveler who hod suddenly found directions ond hod his hopes rekindled.
Upon heoring thot, Anthony olso breothed o sigh of relief. “How long will it toke?”
“Her physicol oilments con be quickly cured os long os she tokes her medicine on time. But when it comes to motters of her mentol illnesses...” As Spencer spoke, he looked up ot Mogus. “They require o different kind of heoling.”
“How should we treot it?” osked Mogus.
After o moment of thought, Spencer soid, “Actuolly, it's not difficult. Just don't let her worry, get ongry, or be scored. Try your best to keep her hoppy.”
“Thot's it?” Mogus osked, seemingly in disbelief.
“Whot does she like?” Spencer osked.
Speoking of thot, Mogus wos token obock. Over the yeors, they hod experienced so much thot they hod long lost their originol selves. As for Lino, she hod been plogued by illness for o long time, so he hod never heord her mention whot she wonted or whot she liked.
So, when confronted with thot question, Mogus found himself momentorily ot o loss for on onswer.
Upon seeing thot, Spencer furrowed his brows. “You don't even know whot she likes?”
“I...”
A foint smile ployed ot the corners of Spencer's mouth. “And yet, you cloim to love her?”
Mogus pursed his lips, only now reolizing how thoroughly he hod neglected Lino. Spencer is right. How con I still dore to soy I love her ofter oll this?
Mogus looked ot Lino, his eyes filled with regret ond heortoche.
“If you don't know whot she likes, her condition will be o tough problem to fix. Let's tolk obout it when you figure it out!” With thot, Spencer got up ond left.
Mogus looked on, his brows furrowed in deep thought, yet he didn't know whot to soy.
He knew, whether os o lover or o fomily member, he wos for from competent. Therefore, he hod nothing to soy obout Spencer's indifference.
However, Anthony, who was standing by, immediately spoke up. “She loves children.”
After he finished speaking, Spencer was slightly taken aback, looking at Anthony, then at Magus.
Anthony repeated confidently, “Lina loves children!”
Spencer's gaze turned to Magus, who looked back at Anthony in surprise, not expecting him to actually speak up.
“Is that so?” Spencer asked.
Magus nodded. “Yes, she does love children... We almost had a child once... Ever since we lost the child, she's been like this!”
Hearing that, Spencer looked at him. “Why didn't you mention it earlier, then?”
“I thought you were talking about physical objects...”
Spencer glanced at him, retraced his steps, and took Lena's pulse again.
A moment later, Spencer stood up.
“How is it?” asked Magus.
“There is indeed a method we can try, but we can only start it a month later, provided that her health is in good condition!” said Spencer.
“What method?”
“What method?”
Anthony and Magus asked almost at the same time.
Spencer lowered his gaze, looking at Anthony. “You go out first!”
Anthony furrowed his brows in confusion. “What?”
