In the end, Tillie agreed.

Edmund began to take charge of Mr. Zander's treatment plan. However, the results he obtained from the doctor were far worse than he had expected.

“Mr. Cooper, the patient's condition is not looking very pleasant. He has colorectal cancer. What we can do now is to let him undergo surgery to remove the tumor, but there is no guarantee that the cancer will not return.”

All of a sudden, his heart felt even heavier.

After he had gotten married, Edmund had lived in a frolicking manner. The thought that someone was suffering all this while did not even cross his mind.

Edmund did not make a decision right there and then. Instead, after hearing what the doctor said, he went out of the doctor's office.
