After recollecting herself, Roxanne began performing acupuncture on Grant.
Soon, Grant slowly calmed down, but he did not dare to lift his head to look at his daughter.
However, his complexion looked better than before. The waxy pallor had gone away, but he was still yellower than the average person.
“We'll go to the hospital for a checkup today,” Roxanne told him in a soft voice.
Nevertheless, she did not wait for Grant's response before leaving the room and asking the housekeeper to make preparations for the trip.
Lucian walked over to his wife's side and held her hand. With a nod and a smile, he said, “You've done everything you could. The luckiest thing in his life is that he has you as a daughter.”
A wry smile crept onto Roxanne's face. “Maybe. But the unluckiest thing in my life is that I have a father like him.”
After the preparations, Lucian and Roxanne drove Grant to the hospital.
The tests took a long time, but Roxanne did not need to worry about it.
Madilyn's leave was long, so Roxanne had asked Linda to temporarily help manage some of Madilyn's work.
Linda had arranged one test after another without wasting much time.
Two hours later, the results were out. Linda even held a meeting with the various doctors to come up with a summary report.
She then informed Roxanne, “Dr. Jarvis, the doctors of various departments have come to the conclusion that the tumor in Mr. Jarvis' stomach has stabilized and is even showing signs of shrinking. The cancer cells that have spread to other places are showing signs of stabilizing as well. Hence, the doctors hypothesized that he has another three more months to live.”
A sorrowful look flittered across Linda's face once she was done telling Roxanne about that, and she added, “I am sorry, Dr. Jarvis.”
“He has three extra months to live. Roxanne, your treatment is working,” Lucian said, patting Roxanne's shoulder.
