Chapter 11

On the day Aveline Blackwood was diagnosed with stomach cancer, Alexander was accompanying Noral as they were taking their son for a check–up.

In the hospital corridor, Ryan held the biopsy report with a serious expression and said, “Aveline, the test results are out. It’s a malignant tumor, stage 3A. If the surgery is successful, the five–year survival rate is

between 15% to 30%.”

Aveline’s delicate fingers clenched the strap of her bag, her pale face filled with seriousness. “Ryan, how long can I live if I don’t have the surgery?”

“Half a year to a year, it varies from person to person. In your case, it’s better to undergo two rounds of chemotherapy before the surgery to prevent infiltration, spreading, and metastasis.”

Aveline bit her lip and said with difficulty. “Thank you.”

“Why are you thanking me? I’ll arrange your admission right away.”

“No need, I don’t plan to undergo treatment. I can’t endure it.”

-Ryan wanted to say more, but Aveline respectfully bowed to him and said, “Ryan, please keep this a

secret for me. I don’t want my family to worry.”

After the global financial crisis that sent markets into chaos, the Blackwood Group had heavily invested in a massive development project, with loans from multiple banks.

As property values plummeted and credit froze, The Blackwood Group faced a severe cash flow crisis.

The old Blackwood, trying to save the family business, made a desperate gamble.

He leveraged everything they had on high–risk investments, hoping for a miracle turnaround.

But the market continued its downward spiral, and the Blackwood finally lost it all. The mighty Blackwood empire, built over generations, crumbled in a matter of months.
