Chapter 623
Anthony was a few meters away from her, but Charmine's determination was palpable. To Charmine, he was not as important as Chris.
He should not be jealous at this time, but he was still upset.
He looked at Charmine. "I have a win-win solution. I'll fix this.”
Leaving such set-in-stone, determined words, Anthony then turned to leave.
Charmine was stunned by the bedside. Her lips curled up bitterly.
How would there be a win-win solution at this stage?
That was impossible.
She turned to look at Chris, lying on the bed. She held his cold, tiny hand, and her grip tightened.
He was just a young child. Why did he have to endure so much pain?
No... She could not let Chris suffer!
She took out her phone and dialed Dr. Weir's phone.
Dr. Weir rushed in within an hour. After checking Chris' pulse, his brows tightened.
Charmine had not seen him with such a serious expression. He did not have this expression when he treated Robert.
A deep sense of uneasiness welled in her. "What is it, Uncle Weir? Is there hope for a cure?"
"Sigh..." Doctor Weir sighed heavily. "Prepare yourself for what I'm about to tell you, Charmine. This child's illness is different from your brother's. Your brother was poisoned, but as long as the poison is ultimately removed from his body, he can recover. However, this child is diagnosed with a natural disease; he was born with weaker immunity. In other terms, if he was born with weaker immunity, there is nothing much we could do due to his frail immune system.
'With that, even for me, I'd need five years to slowly adjust his body, but it's apparent that he won't last that long. I’m afraid that before his body can even adjust to it, he'll..."
Charmine hung onto that last shred of hope, but Dr. Weir's words plummeted her world into darkness.
In other words, there really was no other way. Momo would not live past eight...
That was, unless Anthony and Annabel made another baby...
Doctor Weir patted Charmine's shoulder. "Charmine, you and Anthony aren't meant to be together. Your Grandpa and I had discussed this problem before. Your Grandpa loves you and listens to you. I agreed with him, but now... Sigh. Uncle Weir can introduce better men for you!" 1
Already hopeless, Charmine had zero mood and interest to talk about that. 'Thank you, Uncle Weir, but I’m not planning to get married anytime soon," she spoke. 'Thank you for coming over to check on Momo.”
"If you call me Uncle, you don't have to thank me. Uncle knows you're in a bad mood, so we won't talk about this now. I won't force you. Don't be too worried-I have something that can ease his pain even though I can't cure him. He’ll be able to jump around pain-free soon. I'll get it right away!"
Dr. Weir stood up from the chair right after.
Charmine eyed him in disbelief. "Really? He doesn't have to lay here and have fluids sent to him with these devices?"
