Billionaire's Match (by Tangy Candy) novel Chapter 571

The young doctor's body stiffened at his words. "What… what do you mean?"

"Ah," the director said quietly, "Mr. Hunt has a secretory gastric tumor."

They had arrived in a rush, so he could only give her a brief explanation for now.

The young doctor was responsible solely for monitoring him during this trip. The director, as the attending physician, oversaw all medical decisions. She was there as backup in case anything unexpected happened and needed to be aware of Nick's condition.

After reviewing the report, her face paled noticeably.

Seeing her on the verge of tears, the director cleared his throat. "I understand your concern, but this isn't like hospitals abroad."

In foreign hospitals, they were trained to empathize deeply with patients. When confronted with serious illnesses, they sometimes cried more than the patients themselves.

But this wasn't a performance. She truly felt heartache.

Nick was such a good man, so young, and yet… afflicted with this disease.

"What can we do… he just got married. Does his wife know?" she asked, her voice tight with worry.

The director shook his head. "No. It's being kept from her. They have a strong relationship—he doesn't want to worry her."

He exhaled softly, thinking of how fate always seemed to test those who deserved happiness. In this world, the more perfect something seemed, the more inevitable the flaw.

"Can he really keep this from her forever?"
