Bonnie replied calmly, “Old people all look the same. You’ve mistaken me for someone else.”
Bruce hesitated, then nodded and left.
Once outside, Prisci couldn’t wait to ask about Bonnie’s condition.
Bruce said, “It’s normal for elderly people to have some health issues.”
There was nothing seriously wrong.
Prisci breathed a sigh of relief and thanked Bruce.
She was about to leave, but Wesley stopped her, speaking gently: “Sit down and let the doctor take a look at you too.”
Prisci refused. She didn’t want to owe Wesley any favors.
As for Bonnie, that was Wesley’s responsibility. After all, he was the one who suggested to Larissa to bring Bonnie to Aetherton.
Wesley insisted, gripping her wrist and forcefully cing it on the pulse pillow.
After checking her pulse, Bruce nodded. “Your body has been affected by cold, so it is indeed very difficult to conceive a child…”
Prisci immediately pulled her hand back, her longshes

trembling, her eyes brimming with tears.
“Thank you.”

She thanked the old doctor in a hoarse voice and prepared to
leave.
But Wesley pulled her back by the waist.
Her temper red instantly.
“Do you have to humiliate me like this?”
Frank had personally demanded she divorce Wesley, all because she could no longer bear children.
Being driven out for not being able to have a child was a real humiliation.
But she had wanted a divorce anyway, so she endured that
humiliation.
Yet Wesley insisted on bringing up the past, cutting her heart open again.
She felt miserable inside.
Wesley rubbed his brow and looked at the doctor. “Bruce, could <i>you </i>please say everything at once?”
Bruce chuckled and waved at Prisci. “Youngdy, you’re too impatient. I haven’t finished speaking yet.”
“I said it’s very difficult, not that it’s absolutely impossible.”
Prisci bit her lip. Sarah had said something simr: with proper care, there was still a chance to be a mother.

Wesley’s heart ached, and he lowered his voice: “Bruce is a miracle worker. Let him check you again.”
Prisci looked at the white–bearded doctor across from her and obediently sat back down.
Deep inside, she did long for a child.
Maybe things really could be different.
This time, the pulse diagnosis took a long time.
Prisci went from anxious anticipation at first to silent despair at the end, her face turning pale.
As expected, it still wasn’t possible.
Tears welled up uncontrobly in her eyes.
She hadpletely lost hope.
Wesley was anxious too, but he kept it under control and asked softly, “Bruce?”
The doctor thought for a long while before saying, “It’s just a temporary blockage from cold. A few doses of medicine will clear it up.”
Prisci clenched her fingers, her voice trembling: “Really?”
Was there really hope?
Could she really be a mother?
Wesley’s eyes were also moist. He hugged his wife’s shoulders

tightly. “Prisci, it’s true.”

Prisci covered her mouth and couldn’t help but sob out
loud.
Wesley held her tightly, his heart burning.
They could still have a child.
He could still win her heart back.
The prescription was written, and the doctor still had to see Frank.
Wesley didn’t go; he went to get the medicine himself.
Prisci returned to the hospital room and told Bonnie everything the doctor had said.
Bonnie gripped her hand excitedly, tears in her eyes.
This was wonderful.
If her Ci could be a mother, then she could die in
peace.
Prisci was still worried and anxious. “What if it still doesn’t
work after I finish the medicine? I…”
She was afraid of being disappointed again.
“I trust him.” Bonnie was very firm.

Frank knew exactly what was happening outside. He squinted as Bruce took his pulse. “You prescribed medicine for that old

woman across the hall?”
He was not pleased.
Prisci was capable, but her background wascking,

Back then, Wesley was unremarkable among all his grandchildren, so he didn’t care whom he married. But now that Wesley was the future heir of the Carlton Group, his wife had to be of noble birth.
Even though he had once acknowledged Prisci’s status in the Carlton family, he would be happy to have a different granddaughter–inw if possible.
But then, Wesley suddenly became infatuated with Prisci.
So, by association, he didn’t like the old woman across the hall
either.
Bruce stroked his white beard. “At this age, you should worry less about the younger generation and try to live a few more years.”
Frank snorted coldly. Who knows what he was thinking, but he sighed, “How is that old woman across the hall?”
“She’s worked hard all her life and her health isn’t great. With good care, she might live another three to five years. Without it, maybe just a year or two.”
