A Contract Marriage After a ONS novel Chapter 1405

After thinking for a few seconds, Luke answered, "Okay."

Eileen said, "Swear to me."

Luke stared at her, "Do I have to swear?”

"Yes."

"Okay, I swear on my life that I will take care of Brad whether you will pull through or not!"

Eileen soon fell asleep again.

Luke leaned on the bed, sleepless all night.

Brad had mixed feelings. He was happy that he could live with his mother and was sad that his mother was sick.

Early the next morning, Brad badgered Luke into going to a nearby church to pray for Eileen. They also bought her an amulet.

Brad hoped that his mom would survive.

As long as his prayer was answered, he would come to the church more often.

Subsequently, Luke saw the power of cancer.

In just a few days, Eileen had lost so much weight that her cheeks were sunken.

Whether it was day or night, Luke didn’t dare to sleep and kept an eye on her all the time.

He lay in bed with her in his arms. As soon as she moved, he would immediately wake up.

Eileen was distressed. She tried to persuade him to rest, but he didn't listen to her.

Luke became thinner. There were circles under his eyes.

Kingsley noticed that and could only ask the servants to bring nutritious food to them every day. Kingsley said, "Brad can only rely on you two. You must hold on."

Luke curved his lips. "Don't worry."

Eileen smiled slightly. "I will!"

Eileen and Luke lived a peaceful and relaxing life. They occasionally went downstairs.

Gradually, Eileen became more cheerful.

One day, the professor walked into the ward and said, "A drug has been developed. It's the latest immune drug and hasn't been tested yet. Mr. Bennington, do you want to take the risk?"

Luke frowned, pondering.

Eileen replied quickly, "Yes."

"What if it has side effects?"

Eileen answered, "I trust them."

Luke disagreed. He couldn't afford it if the drug caused problems. He would prefer conservative treatments.

However, Eileen was very resolute, Luke was unwilling but had to give in.

He just wanted her to be happy every day.

Since the day Eileen took the drug, Luke had been unable to sleep well, living in terror.

Finally, four months had passed.
