The Divorced Heiress’s Revenge

The Thompson family was quite surprised to see Arnold. Mila's eyes widened, and she rushed to him. "Why are you here?!"

"Uncle Wyatt is in trouble. I would be here even if I had to crawl, Aunt Mila." Arnold's delicate face was covered in sweat as he raised the corners of his lips slightly.

Mila felt a pang of guilt and lowered her eyes. She had been the one to drive him away, causing a scene with the Larson family and making Arnold feel humiliated in front of the Thompson family. However, seeing the Thompson family in trouble, Arnold had come to help immediately, risking severe punishment from the Larson family. Clearly, his feelings for Asher were sincere.

But-

If his true feelings would drag them both into a pit of no return, she would rather Arnold's interest in Asher be temporary.

"Arnold! How is my father?!" Bella and the rest of the Thompson family gathered around, their eyes full of anxiety.

"My next words may be hard to hear," Arnold said, his complex gaze pausing on Asher's stern face before turning to the others. "Chairman Thompson's condition is not optimistic. My suggestion is to stop all his work and take him overseas for further treatment. He should focus on recovery, and there may still be a chance for improvement."

"Not optimistic... What do you mean by that?" Bella's heart felt like it was collapsing.

The Thompson family was in a panic. Celeste, Amelia, and Sasha were already in tears.

"Chairman Thompson's incontinence is a side effect of the medication."

"Wyatt only took the medication twice. How could the side effects be so severe?!" Mila, gripped by anxiety, was barely standing with Ralph's support.

Arnold hesitated before deciding to reveal everything. "Everyone's body has different levels of tolerance. If it were a young man, he could withstand this dosage. However, given Chairman Thompson's age and condition, he cannot undergo such aggressive treatment. Last time, it was to save his life. After all, lifelong paralysis and being a vegetable were more terrifying. But this time is different. After resuscitation, he should have been treated with conservative methods. Even if they were slow, at least they were gradual. That way, the effects we see today might not have

happened so soon."

Justin looked down dejectedly, his hands hanging powerlessly by his sides before clenching into fists. It was all his fault. If he had not given Chairman Thompson the medication, none of this would have happened.

"Arnold, do you mean my father will eventually...?" Bella's throat tightened, and she felt a thousand steel balls drop into her chest, causing her intense anxiety.

"When the disease progresses to its

later stages, it will affect his

cognitive functions, leading to a decline in cognitive abilities and

intelligence. Even if the muscle net

controlling his bladder function normally, cognitive impairment will prevent conscious control, causing incontinence." Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.

Arnold lowered his eyelids, hiding the gloominess in his eyes. "I obtained Chairman Thompson's medical records from Quentin and fully understood his condition over the years. His stroke has already. reached the middle stages. He has been hiding it from the family and the public, refusing to retire early and struggling to hold on? The early stages had a chance for a cure. But now, we can only use the best instruments and medications to alleviate and slow the disease."

Bella stared unblinkingly at Arnold's lips, her overwhelming sorrow finally breaking through. Large droplets of tears streamed down her face.

In other words, there was no longer any hope for a cure.

The terrible news struck the Thompson family like a thunderbolt. The richest man in Hatchbay, a business overlord, the unstoppable Chairman of KS Group... Was his reign truly ending? At this moment, Justin received a call from Ryan. He quickly turned away to answer in a low voice. "Ryan?"

"Justin, I saw the news. Chairman Thompson's illness is causing quite a stir. It looks serious."

Ryan's tone was full of concern. "Justin, if you need help, tell me right away. You and Bella are more than friends to me. You are family. No matter what, I will do my best to help you." "Thank you, Ryan." Justin's voice was hoarse, bitterness rising in his heart. "If you can, please find any well-known doctors domestically or abroad who can treat strokes. I want to do everything I can to help Chairman Thompson and Bella."

"No matter how small, your matter is of utmost importance to me. I will immediately mobilize all of the Hoffman family's connections to help you find the best doctors."
