The IVF Secret That Shook a Dynasty novel Chapter 348

Joseph carried her over to the cot and gently laid her down. "Get some sleep. I'll watch him."

Since he was so insistent, Vivica didn't argue further. She shifted on the cot, finding a comfortable position. "Okay, I'm going to sleep then. Thank you."

"Mm-hmm."

With a soft hum, Joseph carefully settled into the bed next to Chaim.

Freed from the worry of watching her son, Vivica quickly drifted into a deep sleep. No matter when, no matter what happened, having Joseph by her side brought her an unparalleled sense of peace and security. His sense of responsibility and dedication wasn't something he boasted about; it was woven into every small action. He was like a silent fortress, providing her with an unshakable haven of stability.

...

The next morning, Chaim's test results came back.

Dr. Warren reviewed the report with them. "The leukemia cells have started multiplying rapidly again, and the fever was a clear sign. We need to start the second round of chemotherapy. On the bright side, a pharmaceutical company in Kiston City has made a breakthrough in this area. When the new drug becomes available, his condition might improve."

"Will the new drug be a complete cure?" Vivica asked anxiously.

"It's hard to say. Every child's case is different. The same medication and treatment can have vastly different effects depending on how the body absorbs it."

The glimmer of hope in Vivica's eyes dimmed at his words.

"Ms. Lynn, please rest assured that we at the hospital will do everything in our power to achieve the best possible outcome and buy more time for a bone marrow transplant."

"Okay. Thank you, Dr. Warren."

When they returned to the room, Chaim was awake, and a nurse was performing his routine checks.

"He didn't have a fever all night, so he seems stable for now," Joseph said. "Are you going to work today?"

She arrived at work and clocked in right on time. As soon as she got to her desk, her colleague Holly came over. "Vivica, the boss was looking for you right after you left yesterday. He didn't say what it was about."

Vivica smiled politely. "It's okay, he called me later. We sorted it out."

"Oh, good," Holly said, then asked with concern, "How's your son doing? Don't you need to take time off to be with him?"

"He's doing better. We have nurses and family with him during the day. I can't keep taking leave and burdening everyone else."

Holly smiled. "It's a special situation. We all understand."

Before they could finish their conversation, Vivica spotted a familiar figure. Zavier had arrived. Their eyes met.

Making a quick decision, Vivica turned and followed him straight into his office.
