Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 1157

Even if they never saw each other again, it was still better than exhausting the love between them through endless suffering.

But Ethan couldn't do it. He simply couldn't bring himself to deny Charlotte even the smallest shred of false hope.

More messages from Charlotte soon arrived, all filled with concern as she continued asking about his situation.

Ethan didn't dare say too much. After replying with a few perfunctory answers, he adopted Noah's tone, telling her to rest well and take care of her health before hurriedly logging off.

He knew that continuing the conversation wouldn't ease her longing. And he feared that if they talked any longer, he wouldn't be able to endure it either.

The light from the phone screen went dark.

He lifted his gaze and caught sight of himself in the mirror, shirtless from the waist up. The scars across his lower abdomen were mottled and twisted, ugly beyond words.

Even after so much time had passed, Ethan could still feel waves of pain when his slender fingers brushed across them.

Being a bad person was difficult enough.

So why was becoming a good person just as hard?

…

Early the next morning, Winnie arrived at Cloud Palace with her medical team.

When the Hunt family heard that Winnie's team had developed a targeted drug specifically for Nick's illness, everyone was shocked.

According to Winnie, the medicine had been developed using a new type of cellular extract derived from her mother's patented technology. It had only recently been completed. Current trials showed no side effects, and testing indicated that for stomach-related diseases like Nick's, it could reverse the progression of the illness and completely cure it.

"You're saying this medicine can cure Nick's condition?"

Hearing that, Arista stared uneasily at the small bottle of blue pills on the table.

Although Winnie and the medical professionals accompanying her sounded completely confident, even the hospital had been helpless against Nick's illness. How could a pharmaceutical research team suddenly produce an effective cure?
