ward.

Mrs. Cooper?

Seeing that familiar face, Adam couldn't help shouting, Why are you here?

Mrs. Cooper?

The middle-aged woman lying on the hospital bed looked at Adam in surprise: Do you know Mary Cooper?

You're not Mrs. Cooper.

Adam came to his senses at this moment, nodded and said, I and Mrs. Cooper's children are all good friends, you and Mrs. Cooper?

I'm Mary's cousin Beatty.

The middle-aged woman who looked exactly like Sheldon's mother forced a smile.

Evidently illness was tormenting her.

Adam immediately took a look at the medical records.

Beatty Fors, 45 years old, was hospitalized due to dyspnea. Malignant tumors were found in the lungs, and the cancer cells had metastasized to the bronchi and chest cavity.

Mrs. Forsi...

Ms. Forsi!

Beatis interrupted: Since you know Mary, you can be considered a friend. If you tell me the truth, can I still be saved?

this.

Adam hesitated.

be honest.

Beatis turned pale and trembled.

Adam pondered, and when he was about to speak, someone came in, and Beatis immediately waved his hand and winked, signaling Adam to stop talking.

Mom, I don't want to eat the garbage in the restaurant, the food here is terrible, I'm starving to death.

A tall and beautiful girl walked in coquettishly.

What caught Adam's eyes was that this young girl was supposed to be a mixed-race beauty, and she was more inclined towards Eastern women in appearance.

This was the first time he had seen a beauty with such a face since he traveled through time, and he felt quite cordial.

However, when she thought that her mother had terminal cancer and didn't have much time left, she was also the aunt of Sheldon and Missy, and her heart was a little heavy.

That's right!

The cancer has reached this point, and there is no cure. At most, it is just to remove the tumor that can be removed as much as possible, relieve the symptoms, and buy as much time as possible.

But in the current situation of Beatis, the time he can buy is really limited, and there is a risk of leaving suddenly at any time.

Parting from life to death is the most heart-breaking.

I'll let the nurse buy it.

Beatis forced a smile and said, Doctor, this is my daughter Emilia.

Just call me Adam.

Adam said.

Okay, Adam.

Beatty nodded.

Mom, do you know him?

The mixed-race girl Emilia lay beside Beatis, looking at Adam curiously.

Emilia, remember when I told you that you have an aunt who looks like me?

Beatis touched her daughter's shoulder and said lovingly.

Have it?

The girl Emilia tilted her head and thought for a while, then called out, Oh, it's that cousin you never got along with since childhood, right?

right.

Beatis smiled weakly and said, She's just a fool, she was fooled by a gangster on a motorcycle, and she's stayed in that little place in Galvester ever since, so you haven't seen her, come on It's been twenty years, and I don't know how she is doing?

Mr. Cooper is dead.

Adam introduced: They had three children, a boy and a pair of twins. The eldest son George Jr. is a business genius. He opened a tire doctor's tire shop, and now he has opened three chain stores.

My second son, Sheldon, is my classmate and good friend. He is a super genius. He went to high school at the age of 9, went to college at the age of 11, and got his doctorate at the age of 15. Now he is studying for his second doctorate at Caltech. .

The youngest daughter, Missy, is also very bright and is now studying at the Wharton School of Business.

Mrs. Cooper works in the church herself, you know, and she's a devout believer in God, so she's doing pretty well.

Very good, very good.

Beatty murmured, She's better than me...

Wow! I actually have such a powerful cousin?

The girl Emilia exclaimed.

The Wharton School of Business is in Philadelphia, not far from here. I'll call Missy and ask her to come over. Can you meet?

Adam tentatively suggested.

is it okay?

Teenage girl Emilia is intrigued.

Will it be too much trouble?

Beatis hesitated, but his eyes were filled with joy.

Obviously, she also knew that her situation was not good, and she wanted to arrange a way out for her daughter who was still in high school.

She is a single mother, and the only ones she can rely on are relatives and friends.

Her first choice was her friend, her daughter's aunt Su, but her daughter and Su didn't get along very well.

It's not that Su doesn't love her daughter, it's that their tempers don't match well.

She had no choice before, she could only ask Su.

But now she suddenly discovered that she actually had a better choice.

Although it is said that she and her cousin have been dirty since they were young, it was decades ago, and it feels as far away as the previous life.

The children of the cousin's family are all so excellent, and the cousin is a devout believer in God. After all, she is a relative. If she can entrust her daughter to the cousin to raise her, she will be able to leave with more peace of mind.

Won't.

Adam laughed and said: Missy will definitely like Emilia very much, and Emilia will also like Missy very much, she is a very cool person.

real?

Beatty looked expectantly.

Ok.

Adam nodded: Because of Sheldon's particularity since she was a child, Mrs. Cooper focused most of her attention on Sheldon, which made Missy very much wish to have a younger sister who could play with her.

Doctor Duncan.

While talking, Dr. Burke came to make rounds, and Christina and the others followed suit.

You know each other?

right.

Adam nodded and said, Ms. Forsi is the cousin of an elder of mine.

Oh.

Dr. Burke nodded: In this case, you should be in charge of Ms. Forsi.

OK.

Adam did his part.

Then, Doctor Duncan, tell me about Ms. Forsi's situation.

Doctor Burke beckoned.

Doctors!

Beattis raised her voice and said to her daughter, Emilia, go eat something first.

Mom, I'm not a kid anymore.

The girl Emilia said coquettishly, I want to listen.

obedient!

Beatis scowled.

Ok.

The girl Emilia pouted and got up, and walked outside.

Lina, take Emilia over there and give her something she likes to eat.

Adam called the nurse.

Yes, Dr. Duncan.

Nurse Lina agreed with a smile.

After Emilia leaves.

Now tell me.

Beatis said with a heavy face.

...Now we can only remove these tumors as much as possible to alleviate the disease, but we can't cure it.

Adam introduced.

Ms. Forsi, do you have any comments?

Dr. Burke looked at Beatis.

How long will I live after surgery?

Beatty's face paled.

It depends on the effect of the surgery and your own physique.

Dr. Burke pondered: Ideally, it can be a year.

What's the worst?

Beatis asked.

Death is possible at any time.

Dr. Burke could only tell the truth.

Is the operation risky?

Beatis looked at Adam: Before the operation, can I meet Mary and the others?

I'll contact them immediately.

Adam pulled out his phone.

Seeing this, Dr. Burke explained to Adam, and took Christina and the others to check other wards.

Sheldon's mother, Mary, was shocked when she received the call, and said without saying a word that she and her mother would come over immediately.

Adam helped her and Sheldon's grandmother book the nearest flight.

As for Missy, she is also coming this way from Philadelphia.
