The Girlboss Begs for Remarriage by Chu

Fleur's vitals finally stabilized after the doctors operated on her, but things did not look well despite her survival.

Jon quickly stopped one of the doctors after the surgery and asked, "Is she going to be alright?"

The doctor sighed. "Her condition is terrible, Mr. Lane. Most of her organs are failing given her old age, and..." "And what?!"

Jon was very irritable just then.

Yora suddenly appointed him head of the Lane family and then left Fleur in his care.

It certainly went without saying that this was a test assigned by the matriarch, and Jon would be punished if Fleur died under his care.

The doctor continued just then, "It seems that the patient has been routinely consuming a certain substance. While it improves her health for periods of time, it's also highly addictive and accumulates in the body over time, building up toxicity."

After a moment of hesitation, the doctor shook his head. "I'm sorry, Mr. Lane, but there's really nothing we can do here."

"What?!" Jon bellowed. "Isn't this hospital the best in Zamri? Isn't there anything else you can do?!"

"What..."

The doctor could only shake his head despite Jon's outburst. "Calm down, Mr. Lane... At this point, the patient's only option is to keep taking whatever she was taking before this. Even if it inevitably drives her to her death, it would at least keep her alive for some time. Deny her, and she wouldn't last five days."

John was troubled even as he watched the doctor leave.
