?Chapter 1419:


    Coming back to the Scotts meant walking through fire again. He hadn’t had a moment to breathe.


    It had all worn him down.


    There wasn’t much to hold on to in a life like that.


    But—


    Eric opened his eyes and looked at Hadley. Now, he had something to hold on to. A reason to stay.


    He had Hadley—and together, they had Joy.


    He wasn’t ready to let go.


    “Hadley.” He pulled himself together, his voice steady again, still carrying that familiar, easy charm. “The doctor mentioned two treatment options earlier. Pick one for me. Whatever you decide, I’ll follow it.”


    “Eric!” Hadley snapped. Her brows were drawn tight, and her eyes were rimmed with red. “Can you be serious for once?”


    Did he really think this was something to decide casually?


    “Alright.” Eric nodded, the smile fading from his face. His expression turned solemn as he looked toward Ferris. “Let’s start with conservative treatment.”


    Ferris understood—Eric was giving him the space to weigh in.


    He gave a brief nod. “That’s what I’d rmend too.”


    Eric turned back to Hadley, his voice softer. “What about you?”


    Hadley frowned, then slowly nodded. “Okay.”


    “Then it’s settled.” Eric faced the doctor. “We’ll leave the details to you.”


    “You’re too kind, Mr. Scott,” the chief physician replied. “We’ll arrange a consultation immediately and finalize the detailed treatment n.”


    Later that night, an emergency consultation was held. And after extensive discussion, the n was confirmed.


    “This is how we’ll proceed…” The chief physician spoke at length, carefully outlining each step of the process. “Mr. Scott, Miss Pearson—if anything is unclear, please ask.”


    Ferris didn’t respond right away. Instead, he turned to Hadley. “Did you follow everything?”


    “Tsk.” Eric let out a low sound of annoyance. “It’s my treatment. I’ll remember it myself.”


    Ferris fell silent. He didn’t reply. He had done all this for his son! Forget it. Ferris had already epted—he owed his son too much to expect anything back.


    The doctor continued. “A few important points to emphasize. First—medication must be taken on time. Second—regr check-ups are critical. We’ll also provide a detailed meal n for your household chef.” He paused before adding, “And most importantly—emotional stability is crucial. Sudden fluctuations can raise blood temperature, increase cirction, and spike blood pressure. Any of these could worsen the clot.”<fne028> Content originallyes from ?ovelFind</fne028>


    Finally, he added, “Episodes like today may happen again. So, Mr. Scott, you should never be left alone. If something urs, help must be avable immediately.”


    Never alone?
