CEO’s Tears Over Pregnancy Test Discovery

Chapter 1413

Nina's brows furrowed deeper. Pharaoh's behavior today was just too strange.

She thought back to when she and Nash had planned a trip and wanted to leave Gemma with Pharaoh for a few days, but he had declined, saying he was busy.

At the time, she hadn't thought much of it. After all, grandparents had their own lives. But now, coupled with today's odd call, she couldn't help but worry. Keeping her suspicions to herself, she replied, "Gemma's asleep now, so maybe we'll come by this weekend when Orion's out of school. We can all visit together." "Alright, just come whenever you're free," Pharaoh replied, setting down the phone with a heavy sigh.

Just then, the door to his hospital room opened, and his attending physician walked in. "I'm here to set up your IV. Have you given any more thought to what we discussed?" Pharaoh shook his head.

Logically, he knew he should undergo treatment. Life expectancy for patients with late-stage liver cancer is around six months to a year, but with aggressive treatment, it could be extended.

Yet, chemotherapy would bring a host of other issues including hair loss, exhaustion, and an appearance that would reveal his struggle. He didn't want Nina to see him like that.

"I'd still encourage you to consider treatment," the doctor urged. "Even if a cure isn't possible at this stage, you could extend your life by several years with the right approach. I can tell you want to live, so why not try?"
