Chapter 4

"Sir, Dr. Howard is here." The maid gently knocked on the study door.

Mr. Gray nodded to her, put his glasses back on, got up and went out to meet Dr. Howard.

"Hello, Dr. Howard."

"Hello, Mr. Housekeeper." Although Dr. Howard's hair is all white, he still maintains a youthful vigor, "Is the Earl still unwilling to go out for activities?"

"Yes, I'm sorry, doctor, we should have followed the doctor's orders."

"You know, at his age, it's hard to follow other people's advice. Besides, making him feel comfortable is the most important thing, isn't it?" The doctor smiled understandingly, "Okay, now let's do it for him A new check."

"Hello Earl, how do you feel today?"

"I think I'm pretty good, but my legs seem to want to be special." The earl sat on the sofa, no, it's better to say that he sank into the sofa rather than sitting.As much as he tried to be playful and energetic, the husky, frail voice gave him away.

"If you are willing to go out to bask in the sun often, maybe the rheumatic condition of your legs will be better." Dr. Howard took out his stethoscope to measure the heartbeat of the Earl. A minute later, the doctor said again: "Then what about the legs? Is there any other discomfort?"

"Actually, there is no comfort. Doctor, you know I am too old, and my body and mind have begun to decay, and perhaps the mind has already begun."

"Oh, my lord, please don't say such words, maintaining a good mood will make you feel much more comfortable." Doctor Howard turned to listen to the earl's lungs, but the earl breathed like a huge ship Honk in general.

The old butler was watching the doctor's examination, paying close attention to his every expression, and then learned from the doctor's expression that the earl's condition was very unsatisfactory.Mr. Gray was very sad, and even had the urge to cry.

The doctor then checked other parts of the Earl's body, then packed up his tools, and said with a smile: "Dear Lord Earl, your condition is much better than last time, please keep it up."

"Oh, really? So I can probably live to be 100 years old." The earl laughed wheezingly.

"Thank you for your hard work, please let me take you out." Mr. Butler said politely.

"It's work."

"Now, you can tell the Earl's situation without any scruples, Doctor Howard." The butler led the doctor into the study.

"Hey, the situation is not ideal. The earl is getting old, and it may be related to his lifestyle when he was young. Many problems have gradually accumulated until now and are deeply rooted." Dr. Howard frowned and sighed, "The rest The days may not be many."

Mr. Butler was stunned in pain in the study room. The doctor had already left. He couldn't remember how he sent Dr. Howard away, but at this moment when he finally realized where he was doing, he felt like a knife was twisting his heart.Divorce is always difficult.

This man is dying, his body is slowly decaying, his soul is dying.Perhaps in a few months, or even a few weeks, there will be no Earl Wallace in the world.He has no wife or heir, his estate will be auctioned off, and no one close to him will hold a grand funeral for him.Perhaps in less than a year, no one will remember that this person once existed in this world.

Ge □□jia clenched his hands, he was a little confused, and the overly humid air made him feel a little suffocated.He felt that his life had suddenly lost its purpose. What he longed for once was to be a real gentleman. Later, he wanted to live an ordinary life, and he even wanted his loved ones to live a life without worries. It cost his life.But now, the man he loved and hated was about to grow old and even die.He didn't know what kind of mood he was in. He once gave everything to that man for love, but that man couldn't tolerate his existence.But now everything is a thing of the past.Time never stops for anyone, he is not the original him, and Earl Wallace is going to die.What he had to admit was that he still felt sorry for this man.

Would it have been better if we had never met, and he would have been a slum boy, a noble earl.
