"Will I die?" Cameron asked after thinking about it.
"No, that's not what I mean," Alexander hurriedly explained, "It doesn’t necessarily mean you’ll die, but you might see signs of deterioration. You might not be as strong or fit as before, but these aren't the biggest concerns. The scariest thing would be the damage it might have done to your organs or brain."
All of these were unanswered questions. Only time could tell. The best approach now would be for Lily to be here and observe Cameron daily, but that was an impossible request as she was in the organization’s lab and could not leave.
"All is good if I'm not dying soon," Cameron said nonchalantly.
He had experienced countless storms over the years. This was nothing to him. On top of that, he had more important things to focus on right now. Only once he had settled his unfinished business would he retire and recuperate.
"Dad…" Anastasia was distraught as she squeezed her father’s hand. However, he shook his head to indicate that he was fine.
"Let's not worry too much for now. There are two pills left. Take them as I said, and we'll leave the rest to later," Alexander said.
Cameron nodded. "Okay."
"Will my father be in danger?"
Although the two men seemed unconcerned, Anastasia was still concerned that something terrible might happen. Their tones were light, but she seemed to have detected a dangerous undertone to them.
