Carson's phone call was like a timely rain on a drought-stricken land. Frederick choked on his sob, cleared his throat, and said, "Thank you..."

Did that mean Ally can still be cured?

Thank god, there was hope!

No! Not just hope. She would definitely be cured! Technology was so advanced now. As long as there was a glimmer of hope, he would hold on to it with both hands.

"From now onwards, I will invest at least 100 million dollars more into your laboratory every year!" As long as he could afford it, he would not hesitate to pour money into the project.

That was the first time that Frederick had experienced complete despair. Money was easy. One could always earn it back. Curing an illness was completely different. No matter how much money or status one had, it was powerless against nature. Suddenly he remembered Danica, someone struggling against disease as well. It even happened in the blink of an eye.

Although the two women could not be compared, they were both people he knew. Sickness did not discriminate. Frederick remembered too his late mother and his old granny, even his father had one foot in the grave. He thought also of Alicia's parents and many more who had close relationships with him.

At that moment, the overwhelming feeling of loss filled his heart again.

After hanging up the phone, Frederick felt his spirits improve again. His rollercoaster-like emotions left him feeling a little dizzy. He raised his hand to block out the dazzling sunshine, but the corners of his mouth gradually relaxed a little. Now the most urgent thing was to prevent the exacerbation of Alicia's illness before they could find a cure! They couldn't let her suffer any more unwanted symptoms. He was afraid she'll forget him!

Whenever he thought about how his lover could possibly forget who he was or would look at him with an extremely unfamiliar gaze, Frederick would feel like part of his soul was leaving him. His lover was already deeply engraved in his heart. Unconsciously, he laid his hand on his chest and patted it a few times, "It will be fine. It must be fine!"

After consoling himself, Frederick thought of something and picked up his car keys. "I almost forgot. Carson's medicine should have arrived. It was also time for him to have a checkup, and get his injection!"

As much as she wanted, Alicia could not fall pregnant. Her immune system would not be able to handle it.

Even if she was so eager to have a baby...

It must be concealed from her that he had inoculated Spermicide. Otherwise, she would definitely be sad if she knew He kept the fact that he was being injected with a special spermicidal shot. It would break her heart if she found out.!
