His Eagle Eyes on Me novel Chapter 2486

Twelve years had passed, and Taronia was experiencing an exceptionally harsh and unforgiving winter.

The doctor had come to give the old woman an injection, but her skin no longer allowed him to find her veins.

He shook his head at Irene before leaving.

Tears rolled down Irene's face as she watched the doctor leave.

"Irene..." murmured the old woman weakly.

Irene swiftly wiped her tears away and calmed herself before turning around and heading back to bed.

"Don't be afraid, Grandma. The doctor forgot to bring the medicine. He is heading back to the clinic to take it." Irene did not want the old woman to worry.

The old woman had been bedridden and ill ever since she had tripped and fallen a year ago. Had Irene not tended to her carefully, she would have passed away a long time ago. After a year of fighting to survive, the old lady felt weak and weary. She had no energy left to continue the fight. She had been unable to eat for three months and had wasted away. She had become a living skeleton because of the lack of nutrition. A sharp pain lanced through her chest with every breath she took.

"I... I am leaving now... Don't... Don't cry..." the old woman held onto Irene's hands with tears in her eyes. "I- I really don't want to leave you..."

"I don't want you to leave either, Grandma... I don't want you to go. Please!" Irene sobbed as she clutched the old woman's frail hand in her own. "What should I do if you are gone? I want you to stay with me forever. I haven't had the chance to repay you for all that you have done for me. You can't leave..."

Moved, the old woman felt as though the pain had subsided slightly.

Her mediocre life had been given a purpose when Irene walked into her life, and she had no regrets.

"My Irene. I'm holding you back..." The old woman sobbed as she whispered, "You have to... be happy... Be careful... of bad people..."
