Chapter 505

Veronique was smart enough to make out what her words meant.

“So is it really a malignant tumor?”

Bailey turned away. “We discovered it in time, so there is still time to treat it slowly. Don't worry. I have experience in developing anti-cancer drugs, so I will definitely develop a suitable drug before the cancer cells spread any further.”

Veronique clasped Bailey's arm and shook her head, her lips tightly pressed together. “You are carrying a baby, so you can't stress yourself. Schedule the surgery to remove my uterus first, and we'll see what happens after that.”

“Okay, whatever you say. You must promise me not to think about committing suicide. You want to be in-laws with me, right? Zephyr and Susan grew up together, so they will definitely end up together as you wish. You must be alive and well to see that.”

Veronique chuckled. “You've agreed to it so readily, huh? I don't think Mr. Luther agrees to it, though. If Zephyr ends up with your daughter, I think he'll stop being friends with Justin.”

“Just stay alive. If you make a full recovery, I will give my consent for my daughter to marry your son. Look, this is a huge sacrifice on my part, so you must make sure you recover completely.”

“All right. Don't worry. I'm not as fragile as you think. I've grown indestructible over the years after having to face Zephyr's illness.”

“Sure.”
