Chapter 42 Norah Fell Apart - Advanced Liver Cancer
"Quickly, go to the hospital. James said that grandpa fainted and is being rescued." Norah said with
trembling.
Grandpa was already at an old age, and his health condition was not that good.
She didn't know whether grandpa could survive once being rescued in the emergency room.
She was afraid.
A lot.
However, at the traffic light, Norah found that Shawn did not turn.
"Go to the hospital, Shawn, where are you going?" Norah was angry.
She was pale with anger.
Shawn put his hands on the steering wheel calmly.
Compared to Norah's panic and nervousness, he didn't seem to be affected at all and was always in
calm.
"Norah, don't worry, from what I know about grandpa, he may not be sick."
"When I was young, my grandfather often lied to me with sick tricks. I was cheated many times. Maybe
my grandfather doesn't want us to get a divorce, so he lied to us with the reason of illness to make us
come back."
Shawn thought that after hearing this, Norah would feel better, at least she would be calmer.
However, it was completely unexpected.
Norah stared at him angrily, "Shawn, what do you mean?"
"I don't care if you have been deceived by grandpa, or what kind of guesses you have made. Even if
grandpa is pretending to be sick, I will rush to the hospital immediately to accompany him."
"You turn around and go to the hospital right away."
Her life could no longer withstand any assumptions.
Grandpa was not in good health. When she went to see him today, she felt that he was very tired and
became much older.
If it was true, she dared not imagine it.
Therefore, she did not allow grandpa to have any accidents.
Even if it was fake, even if her grandfather was lying to her, she was willing to be cheated.
However, she had to personally confirm that her grandfather was healthy.
When they got to the hospital, Norah rushed to the emergency room.
When she saw the emergency room light on, she instantly became weak and almost slipped off the
wall.
"Dad, Mom, how is grandpa?" Norah's voice was trembling uncontrollably.
For some reason, she had a very bad feeling in her heart.
Moreover, she still had a strong feeling that she was about to lose something.
Seeing that Susan and Marty were both standing outside the emergency room in somber, Shawn knew
that things were not that easy.
"Why did grandpa suddenly being rescued in the emergency room?"
Shawn looked at the bright red letter, his heart suddenly hung up.
Marty stood aside, his eyes were red, as if he had aged a lot in an instant.
"Mom, tell me, what are you hiding to us?" Shawn was keenly aware of something.
Susan raised her head and said in a low voice, "Now, I can't hide it even if I want. And, it's time for you
to know."
"Grandpa's illness has never been lighter. He has advanced liver cancer. A month ago, the doctor
issued a critical illness notice saying that grandpa..."
Speaking of grandpa, Susan's voice was trembling, and she could not continue.
Marty came over to support her, and continued, "That's why grandpa has brought forward his 80th
birthday. He's afraid that he won't survive to that day, but he just doesn't want to regret."
"As for you, he blocked the news and didn't let anyone tell you."
Norah cried and leaned against Shawn with tears. Her whole body trembled because of the grief.
If her father-in-law hadn't told her this, she wouldn't believe it.
That white-haired, warm and kind grandfather who favored her a lot, how could he have liver cancer?
And by the time she knew it, it was already too late.
why?
Why did she just know it?
"No..." Shawn shook his head and looked at Marty with red eyes, "I don't believe it, you lied to me."
"Since I was a child, my grandfather liked to lie to me about being sick, so that I could be obedient, and
it's the same this time, right? I know that he doesn't want me to divorce Norah, and I promised him that
as long as he gets better, I won't divorce. I will live with Norah forever."
"I'll obey him, everything."
Marty knew that they couldn't accept it in a short time, but what he said all was true.
"Shawn, Norah, Dad didn't lie to you. These are all true. If you don't believe it, you can go to the doctor
to check the medical records. Three months ago, grandpa was diagnosed with advanced liver cancer."
Shawn's eyes were scarlet, and he looked at Marty coldly and asked, "Three months ago? Now that
you already knew it, why didn't you tell us? Why did you hide it from us?"
"Marty." Shawn called out his name angrily in front of him.
"Marty, he is my grandfather and your father. Now that you know it, why are you hiding it from me?
Why?" Shawn growled, his face bursting with anger. Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
"I know, you hold grudges against grandfather. You hate him for separating you from that woman. You
hate him for not letting the illegitimate child in, but he is your father. How can you be so cruel? Do you
still have humanity?"
Shawn hated this father.
Now he hated more.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed Marty's collar, and raised his fist.
Susan rushed over, grabbed Shawn's hand, and explained with red eyes, "Shawn, I know you hate
your father, but it's not his fault this time."
"Grandpa didn't let us tell you, or he won't accept treatment."
"We have no choice but to hide from you."
After saying that, her tears came out.
Norah also burst into tears.
"Now that he has accepted the treatment, why this happened today?" Shawn asked weakly.
"Grandpa is already old. Who can survive from the advanced stage of liver cancer? The so-called
treatment is just to relieve pain and prolong lifetime a little bit. Do you think it can be cured?"
Although, everyone couldn't accept this fact.
However, this was the cruel truth.
Shawn squatted on the ground in frustration, holding his head and staring at the ground.
Norah knew that he was sad for he thought that grandpa was playing joke this time and misunderstood
by him.
She walked over, held Shawn's head in her arms, comforted him gently, "Grandpa won't blame you,
you know? Actually, I really hope that what you said in the car is true."
"I really hope grandpa lied to me, I hope it's all fake."
"I hope that when I wake up from sleep, grandfather will call me kindly."
"Even if grandpa raises his cane again and wants to beat you for ten or twenty times, chasing you
around, I won't stop it. I'd rather you be beaten all over by grandpa."
Norah said with tears falling frantically.
"Me too." Shawn said.
Norah nodded, the tears in her eyes became more and more bountiful.
