She slumped down, as if all her strength had drained away.

There were seats not far behind them, but Lysander lacked the energy to reach them. She stood as close to the emergency room as possible, clinging tightly to Josiah for support as he suggested.

As tears slowly trickled down Lysander’s cheeks, she could no longer contain her sorrow. She buried her head in Josiah’s sleeve and broke into a heart–wrenching cry.

It was common to see distraught family members of patients wailing in despair outside the emergency room. Medical workers passing by had grown accustomed to such scenes, offering only a sympathetic glance.

At this point, all we can do is to admit him to the ICU. We’ll need to observe him further before discussing a specific treatment plan.”

In other words, the medical staff had exhausted all options, and now it was up to fate.
