Chapter 1526
Chapter 1526
At the sight of the weak Tail, Joanne felt as if her heart had been pierced, with tears welling up in her eyes.
"Tail," she uttered.
Nervousness, worry, anxiety, regret... She had mixed emotions.
The next second, she left Edwin's arms and rushed to pick Tail up from the floor.
Due to little strength, the moment Joanne took Tail up, she staggered and then fell down hard on the floor, making
a dull and loud sound.
When Edwin saw them fall, a wave of sadness came over him.
The image in which Tail had scolded him actively came to mind. But now, Tail was frail, totally different from her

"Call a doctor! Now!" Joanne shouted at Edwin, embracing Tail tight.
With a dark face, Edwin called Lucas at once and then took Tail from Joanne's arms.
As soon as he hugged Tail, he found her body hot all over.
She was running a fever.
And... She was quite light and skinny. Her bones were against his arms.
Night arrived quietly.
Joanne cared for Tail near her bed.
Edwin had assembled a whole medical team to treat Tail.
The doctor checked the thermometer and frowned.
"How's my daughter?" Joanne asked anxiously.
The doctor answered, "Mrs. Atherton, Miss Tail has a high fever. I’m afraid it’s serious."
A high fever? Serious? Joanne was so perturbed that she replied tremblingly, "Find a way to reduce the fever.
Please."
Looking at her anxious expression, Edwin also got very worried. He said to the doctor grimly, "No matter what
treatment you use, you must cure her. Otherwise, you'll be fired!"
The atmosphere in the ward was extremely tense. The doctor wiped off his cold sweat and asked Joanne in a
quivering voice, "We can't find Miss Tail’s medical records. Could you tell me what disease she has suffered from
before and which drugs she is allergic to? She has lower disease resistance than ordinary children."
Joanne answered immediately with red eyes, "Not long after she was born, she was diagnosed with leukemia. Later,
her bone marrow was replaced, and her resistance has become low since then..."
"I see," the doctor said understandingly. "Mr. Atherton, Mrs. Atherton, don't worry. I'll give Miss Tail an injection to

Choked, Joanne nodded. Now she was like a person in the dark who saw a glimmer of light. "Thank you."
"Mama..." Tail in a coma suddenly muttered.
Her cute and pretty face wrinkled, and she was waving her hands wildly. "Let go of my mama. Don't go..."
Hearing Tail's words, Joanne became sadder. She took Tail's hand and pressed it against her face. "Mama is here.
Don't be afraid. Don't be afraid."
"Mama, don't leave me..." Tail said.
Tail's voice trailed away, but her eyebrows became more and more furrowed. She was in agony.
Joanne's self-blame and guilt peaked at the moment. She divided the hair on Tail's forehead, which was wet
because of the high fever. She said, "I promise you that I will never leave you again..."
"I will behave myself and protect you... Drive the bad man away..." Tail murmured.
"Okay." Joanne kissed Tail's hand, shaking with worry and sorrow.
Edwin stood aside, but he didn't know how to interact with Joanne and Tail.
He was upset...
