Chapter 1361 What Have You Gained

“The doctor said things will get better after this period,” Jerry said, holding his hand in his palm. His eyes were dark, making it impossible to discern any emotions.

Albert shook his head, “I don't want to stay up any longer.”

He looked at Jerry with gradually increasing guilt in his eyes and said in a low voice, “I'm sorry, I let you down by not keeping my word,...”

“No,” Jerry said, “You've been very kind to me, and I remember it all.”

Albert felt a growing sense of unease, his thin, bony hand tightly gripping Jerry's. “I once swore in the Pann family ancestral hall that as long as I live, I will not let the Pann family fall apart. Jerry, you are a descendant of the Pann family, and the son I value the most. In the future, the entire Pann family business will be handed over to you. You must ensure the Pann family legacy continues forever.”

The legacy established by their ancestors is meant to be passed down from generation to generation, allowing the Pann family to flourish.

After a moment of silence, Jerry said, “All right.”

“Swear to me.”

Jerry was raised by him.

He knew that deep down, the child was ruthless, and his calm endurance would one day shatter with the collapse of a certain event.

Jerry looked at Albert and calmly said, “I swear, I will never do anything that would harm the Pann family or cause it to fall apart. If I break this promise, may I be cursed to live a lonely life and never find peace in death.”

Upon hearing his venomous oath, the man finally breathed a sigh of relief. “Don't blame your father. If the Pann family falls apart, I would be too ashamed to face our ancestors.”

Jerry said, “How could I blame you?”

The brief exchange with Jerry had drained all of Albert's energy, as waves of pain tormented him, making it unbearable.

“Jerry, let me go. I have no more worries left.”

“All right.” This time, Jerry didn't refuse. He pressed the emergency bell by the bedside.

In a short while, a nurse came in, holding a silver tray in her hand. On the tray, there was only a syringe.

Jerry removed the syringe, and Albert straightened his arm cooperatively, seemingly eager for relief.

The fine needle pierced into Albert's relaxed flesh, and the eight milliliters of medicine were quickly injected into his body. Jerry expressionlessly pulled the needle out.

He looked down and asked Albert, “What have you gained in your life?”

Albert's consciousness gradually scattered as he heard Jerry's words. He thought for a moment and murmured softly, “I have you, my outstanding son, and... your mother...”

Albert's voice gradually weakened, and soon he closed his eyes. The mist on the breathing tube also slowly disappeared.

Jerry let out a sarcastic laugh.

He took out his phone just as a call came in. On the other end, Joash said, “Jerry, you should be up by now, right? I have something urgent to tell you.”
