    Chapter 1059


    “Yesterday, I noticed your brother''s eyes were all red and puffy. Things must not be going well. But they


    didn''t tell me.’ The elderly woman on the other end of the phone chuckled, her tone light and carefree


    as if she had epted her fate. "A while back, I saw a girl who looked just like you."


    She''d had a re-up of her illness at the time and couldn''t take a good look.


    By the time she woke up and asked her caregiver, she was told the girl was just a passerby who had


    helped her.


    The girl looked exactly like Louisa when she was young.


    “Mom, are you missing me? Keh and I were just thinking of visiting you.


    Are you still in Dawnstar?" Louisa asked, concern etching her voice.


    “Yeah, I moved to Lidaria this month. They say there''s a brilliant doctor here who''s saved a lot of lives.


    Maybe he can help with my condition, though I don''t have much hope."


    The elderly woman had grown weary from her long battle with the illness, the light in her eyes dimming.


    "Mom, you can''t think like that." Louisa''s voice was strained, "Tomorrow I''ll ask my brother. If the


    doctors there can''t help, maybe someone from our family can"


    “Our family? Do we have a doctor?" The elderly woman sounded surprised, thenughed, "Oh, you


    mean rk. How''s he doing? Is he busy with work?"


    "Mom, rk''s a forensic scientist, I was talking about.” Louisa stopped, torn between wanting to share


    her thoughts and fearing the impact on her mother''s health. But she couldn''t resist mentioning Be,


    whose medical skills had saved so many people. She was sure Be could help!


    “Let''s do this, tomorrow we''ll head to Lidaria. We''ll arrive the day after and then we can talk. Prepare


    yourself.


    “What kind of doctor is so mysterious that you and Keh need to make a special trip? I might not be


    in Lidaria for long, I might need to move again."


    "No, we haven''t seen you in a long time. You''ve been unconscious, and my brother''s been taking you


    around looking for treatment. Keh has been saying he wants to visit you. That''s settled, we''lle


    tomorrow."


    “Louisa, you really don''t need to go to all this trouble."


    At her words, Louisa''s eyes filled with tears. She covered her mouth to keep from sobbing, struggling to


    keep her emotions in check.


    Keh noticed her on the balcony, talking on the phone. He quickly grabbed a robe to drape over her.


    It was December, and the wind outside was so cold it hurt.


    Seeing his wife on the verge of tears, Keh rushed to her side, rubbing her back and guiding her


    inside.


    “Alright Mom, we''ll leave it at that for now. Have your lunch and take a nap, Keh and I will leave


    tomorrow and be there the day after. If you''re not feeling better by then, I''m going to have a word with


    my brother!" Louisa managed tough at her own joke.


    The elderly womanughed along, “Alright, I''ll be waiting. You kids are so thoughtful."


    After hanging up, Louisa quickly messaged her brother on WhatsApp to ask about their mother''s


    condition, and then shared the news with Keh.


    Things didn''t seem promising.


    “Why don''t we bring Be with us?" Keh suggested.

    It would be a good opportunity for them to formally meet, and Be could also help with the diagnosis.


    "We''ll just have to see if Be has the time. We''ll ask her tomorrow”
