"Otherwise, I'll leave now!"
"I will not return a single penny of your thirty thousand US dollars to you either!"
Liam did not expect that there was such a thing in the other party's family, and for a moment, he also felt a little empathy.
So, he said apologetically, "Mr. Smith, I'm very sorry to hear such a thing. Can I take the liberty to ask how is your son's condition now?"
When Smith heard this question, all of the aggression that he had been feeling just now instantly disappeared. Instead, it was replaced by a heartfelt feeling of despair and helplessness.
He let out a long sigh and muttered, "Half a month ago, he just received four hundred and seventy thousand U S dollars worth of T-cell immunotherapy from Novartis Pharmaceuticals, but with little success..."
"Now, his tumor has recurred, and it has spread throughout his body..."
"Just three days ago, the largest tumor in his brain compressed his optic nerve and so, he is currently blind..."
"The reason why I was late just now was because an hour before I left work, my wife told me that his
hearing had been affected as well and he could not hear people anymore..."
"So, I rushed to the hospital, and the doctor told me that in his current condition, he has lost the meaning o f treatment, and he has only one month left to live at most."
