Suddenly There Are Three (Bailey and Artemis) novel Chapter 504

Chapter 504

Justin's expression was pale as though he had been dealt a devastating blow.

His hands were shaking as he gripped the report and stared at it without a word.

To be exact, his entire being was trembling.

Malignant tumor. I can't believe it is a malignant tumor. That means even if we remove her uterus, the cancerous cells will still spread to her other organs. We cannot remove all her organs, can we?

“No. There must be something wrong. Perhaps we did the test wrongly. Let me run the test again,” Justin muttered under his breath as he fumbled with the buttons on the equipment.

Bailey shook her head lightly and spun on her heels to walk out of the lab.

Outside, Artemis could sense the gravity of the situation when he saw her walking out, her expression pale. Reaching out to support her, he asked solemnly, “Is it bad news?”

Bailey held her forehead and sighed. “It is indeed bad news. The tumor is malignant. Even if the uterus is removed, the cancerous cells will spread elsewhere.”

Artemis' expression turned dark.

Artemis was well aware of the sufferings that Justin faced before finally gaining happiness. As Justin's good friend, Artemis felt sorry for him now that something like this happened.

“What about the anti-cancer medication? There are clinical trials that prove it works, right?”

Bailey shook her head and explained, “There are many types of cancers, and the anti-cancer medication we developed only works on a few types of cancerous cells.”

“What are you guys planning to do?”

“Let's wait and see. Justin is currently struggling to come to terms with the results, so he's redoing the test. We'll have a conversation once he's had a chance to calm down.”

Artemis bobbed his head. “You should go keep Veronique company. I'll wait here for Justin.”

“Mm.”

Olivia was talking on the phone inside her bedroom in the Xuereb residence.

“Really? Did that woman really suffer from uterine cancer with a malignant tumor?”

“Yes, Mrs. Xuereb. Mr. Xuereb couldn't accept it and is currently running tests in the lab, but I'm positive that Ms. Revelle is suffering from uterine cancer.”

Olivia tightened her grip on her phone as a delighted grin appeared on her aged yet still attractive countenance. “Oh, this is karma. I was wondering how I could break them up, but she is now ill. This is great. Malignant tumor, huh? She'll soon die and make way for Lettie.”

After the call ended, Olivia hurriedly called Scarlett.

Scarlett had been giving Olivia the cold shoulder ever since the latter screwed up last time. Now that she received some exciting news, she was eager to share it with Scarlett as soon as possible.

The ringtone rang for a good forty seconds, but no one answered her call.
