Chapter 492
Tears streamed down Vincent's skinny face.
He shifted his gaze to Lionel and twitched his lips. He appeared to have something to say but was
unable to do so because he did not dare to say it in front of his daughter.
Lionel immediately understood what he was trying to say. “Don't worry. I'll keep my promise. I'll take
good care of Victoria and protect her for the rest of my life,” Lionel said as he leaned over and reached
out for Vincent's hand.
As he spoke, he pulled something out of his pocket and showed it to Vincent.
When Vincent saw the words “Marriage Certificate,” he started crying once again.
“Good. Now, I can rest in peace.” With the last bit of his strength, he placed his daughter's hand in
Lionel's and whispered, “I-I'll leave my daughter in your care, b-but you better treat her well, or I-I'll
come back to haunt you.”
As soon as Vincent finished speaking, his arm fell limply, and he gradually closed his eyes.
His controversial life had also come to an end.
Everyone claimed that he was cruel, as he refused to let go of his late friend and caused the Gezmond
family to be destroyed.
Nobody was aware that he was actually the victim.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe was deeply in love with his wife. They had a happy family, but it was destroyed in the end by
Benjamin, who was worse than a monster.
All the goodwill and resentment should now vanish with the passing of everyone from his generation.
Victoria hugged her father's body and burst into tears.
At the same time, Lionel slowly bent his knees to kneel on the carpet and silently vowed in his heart.
Don't worry. I won't let Victoria find out about the feud between our families.
Outside of the bedroom, Bailey's eyes gradually turned red as she heard the crying inside.
Victoria had hated her father ever since the incident seven years ago and had never returned home.
However, when she wanted to make up for lost time after realizing that there was something odd about
what had happened back then and that she might have misunderstood her father, her father had
already passed away.
Could there be anything in this world that was more agonizing and unacceptable than that?
“Don't let your emotions take over,” Artemis reminded.
“Artemis, am I doing the right thing?” Bailey asked, her eyes welling up with tears. “For the sake of
Zoey Shurmer, I concealed my identity and kept my biological parents in the dark. They'd probably
never find out the truth.”
Pulling her into his embrace, Artemis comforted her, “Zeke already knows the truth. He's now the head
of the Shurmer family and represents the entire family. His decision is for everyone in the Shurmer
family. If he cares about you, he'll handle this matter properly.”
Bailey's expression softened slightly when Zeke's name was mentioned.
I'm sure my brother cares about me.
Despite being raised by the Jefferson family, she never got along with them. Even though she had
stated that she would not reveal her identity to the Shurmer family, she still yearned for familial
affection.
After all, those were her parents and older brother.
“Thank you, Artemis.”
“Silly girl, you're not allowed to say thank you in the future. If you don't listen, I'll bully you to death.”
Bailey was speechless.
Meanwhile, in a testing room at the medical base, Justin furrowed his brows as he looked at the CT
image in his hand.
It seemed like what Bailey feared was about to happen.
What kind of damage did Veronique's body sustain back then? How could her uterus...
Thinking of that, he took a deep breath and took out his phone to call Bailey.
As soon as the call was connected, he inquired, “Bailey, are you aware of the condition of Veronique's
uterus?”
After a moment of silence, Bailey's calm voice could be heard on the other end of the line. “Is there
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmreally a problem with Vero's uterus?”
Instead of answering, Justin took a few pictures of the CT image with his phone and sent them to her.
Shortly afterward, Bailey piped up worriedly, “There are signs of cancer in the uterine wall. It appears
that what I feared is about to happen. Vero's stomach slammed into the edge of the table when she
was eight months pregnant. Although Zephyr survived, Vero's uterus was severely damaged. I was
originally against the idea of having a test tube baby, but she was determined to save Zephyr. It would
be fine if the fetus' conception went smoothly, but the point is that she miscarried halfway through. It
was a strong blow to her already frail uterus. Because she refuses surgery, her chances of developing
uterine cancer are extremely high.”
Massaging his temples, Justin asked, “Then what should I do now? Should I perform the surgery and
remove her uterus?”
“No, don't act hastily. I have to figure out whether it's malignant or benign. If it's benign, a hysterectomy
will be sufficient. However, if it's malignant, the cancer cells will still spread to her heart, liver, spleen,
lungs, etc., even if you remove her uterus.”
Hearing that, Justin let go of the CT image, which fell to the ground. In an instant, his expression
darkened.
“Justin, don't worry. I'll head over to the medical base right now.”
“Okay.”
In the study of a private mansion, Holden was looking at Micah, who was seated across from him, with
a sneer on his face. His eyes were filled with contempt.
