He had vomited blood?
Nora’s eyes narrowed. She hurriedly said, “Okay, I’ll be right there.”
No matter what, saving Ian was more important!
In the hospital.
Joel was panicking outside the operating theater. Ian suddenly vomiting blood caught him off guard. At this moment, his vital signs had already calmed down and he was once again pulled back from death.
However, the attending doctor said, “Mr. Ian was saved this time, but next time, we can’t guarantee anything. He’s still in a coma. We have to think of a way to deal with the brain tumor.”
Joel said directly, “I’ve already called Anti over.”
When the attending doctor heard this, he hesitated. When Joel saw him like this, he could not help but ask, “What’s wrong?”
The attending doctor sighed. “A few days ago, Anti could still perform the surgery and barely save him. But now, Mr. Ian’s body is too weak. Just now, there was blood in his lungs, and we also performed the surgery on him. His body is no longer suitable for surgery. Sigh!”
No longer suitable for surgery…
What did this mean?
Joel grabbed his hand. “What did you say?”
The attending doctor slowly retracted his hand and said, “Mr. Joel, you… should prepare for a funeral!” before slowly retreating and leaving.
Joel stood there and frowned.
He looked at the ICU ward again.
At this moment, footsteps suddenly came from the end of the corridor.
Joel turned back and saw that the elders from the old residence had arrived.
He narrowed his eyes and welcomed them. “Granduncle, why are you here?”
This Granduncle was Ian’s third uncle. He used to be a glorious direct descendant, but ever since he moved to the old residence, he only took the Smiths’ dividend and did not ask about anything else.
Under normal circumstances, they would only appear if something unfair happened to the Smiths.
However, this Granduncle did not get along with Ian.
Back then, Ian refused to marry for the sake of Yvette. In granduncle’s eyes, he had already become an anomaly. Joel knew that granduncle had repeatedly scolded Ian for being selfish and completely disregarding his future generations. He did not even have a direct successor!
Granduncle even said that even if he did not get married, he could just have a child, but Ian had rejected all of them.
Back then, Ian’s methods were iron-blooded. The entire Smith family was exceptionally obedient under his thunderous methods. How could Granduncle be Ian’s match?
He had forcefully sent him back to the old residence and even sent him a message: “Take care of yourself. Don’t be a busybody.”
Granduncle had been furious, but he could not do anything to Ian.
According to what Joel knew, this Granduncle was guarding the ancestral old residence. The fun he had every day was cursing Ian. Every day, he would scold him. It had almost become his daily routine!
Ever since Ian fell ill, Granduncle had felt even more satisfied. Joel heard that he waited at home every day for news of his death.
Nothing good would come of him running here now!
Sure enough, the walking stick in the hands of this 80-year-old man hit him directly. “Unfilial son! Don’t you know why I’m here?”
