Chapter 390: Chapter 390



“Ma’am.” Abbott Baron opened the car door for Dolores Flores. Dolores looked at him and was a little surprised, “Why are you here?”.

“Mr. Nelson asked me to be here.” Abbott said.

Step into a new journey on galnovels .con Matthew asked Abbott to come first to find someone to serve them and arrange an expert for Jessica Lennon. Besides, they didn’t have to wait too long.

“Please come with me, I’ve arranged everything.” Abbott led the way.

Dolores held Jessica’s arm and followed Abbott to the hospital. Instead of standing in line, they went straight up. There were quite a few people in the outpatient services center. Abbott went into the office and talked to the doctor for a while, then sent Jessica to the office.

Jessica had little time to stay out, so they had to get all the tests done as soon as possible.

Abbott had already talked to the director and everything was well arranged, they just had to let the doctor know.

Jessica cooperated with everything she was told, but she just had to stay alone in the clinic.

Even Dolores was not allowed to stay inside the room.

“Mom, why can’t I be there?” Dolores didn’t understand. “Are you hiding something from me?”

“How could I?” Jessica looked at her calmly, without any emotion. “Other people may not know who I am, but you do. I just want to be here alone, so I can better talk to the doctor about my condition. I came to the hospital with you, how can I hide anything from you?”

“I didn’t mean to.” Dolores was trying to explain.

“If so, wait for me outside.” Jessica told her calmly and didn’t get angry at all, but she looked quite uncomfortable.

Dolores didn’t insist on staying, just told her she would wait for her outside and then went out.

Jessica was accused of being a delinquent at the time. Dolores thought she might think too much about her problem, so she finally went out and didn’t want to cause her any more worries.

After seeing the door close, Jessica sat back in the chair and looked at the doctor, “I’m sorry to have bothered you.”

The doctor replied that it was fine, that was his job.

“I know my physical condition.” The reason Jessica was here was so Dolores wouldn’t worry.

“I have a brother who died of lung cancer.”

The doctor noted the patient’s history of family illness, then asked, “What about your parents?”

“My father had cancer.”

Then, when she didn’t feel well, she guessed the result. The doctor looked up, “So you doubt that you also have cancer?” Jessica nodded.

“She’s my daughter; I don’t want her to know anything about it. Can you give me a false test result saying I’m fine no matter what the result is?”

The doctor wasn’t sure what to do, so at first he could only reply, “Yes. I’ll give you a list of tests.” He then wrote down the detailed instructions on the prescription.

“When might I get the results if I do the tests now?” asked Jessica.

The doctor was thinking through the whole process, as she doubted she might have cancer, so she had to run a series of tests, some of which might take longer to get results. Considering that they had the relationship with the management level, so she might be able to do all the tests for her as soon as they could. So, at least it took, “One week.”

“No matter what the result looks like, please deliver a good status report to my daughter.” Jessica feared the doctor would forget her request, so she stressed it once again.

The doctor nodded and handed her the prescription, “Go get the tests.”

Jessica took it and nodded, “Thank you.”

She opened the office door and stepped out; Dolores was just outside the door waiting for her.

Dolores quickly walked toward her after seeing Jessica.

Jessica had a soothing smile, “The doctor said it shouldn’t be a serious problem, we just need to run some tests. Let’s go together.” Dolores said yes.

Abbott followed them, because they told the director ahead of time, they had full priority on the tests, blood draw and x-rays…. It took them 2 hours to finish all the tests they needed.

Now, they just have to wait for the results.

“You guys can go back first; I’ll go get the report.” Abbott said.

Dolores thought about it, “Abbott is familiar with the people here, it’s okay if he can get the result.”

“Okay, we’ll go back first.”

Dolores prepared to take Jessica back.

As Abbott was about to take the report, the doctor who received Jessica a moment ago approached him.

The doctor didn’t dare lie to Abbott.

“I want to talk to you about the patient.”

Abbott paused, “Yes, please.”

“She felt she had cancer, as her father and brother had a history of cancer. And her brother died of it. So it’s quite possible that she also has genetic cancer.”

“Are you sure the cancer could be genetic?” asked Abbott earnestly.

The doctor replied solemnly, “If she has it, then yes, it is genetic.”

Abbott said he understood.

Now he finally understood why Jessica asked Dolores to stay outside.

“Besides, she wanted me to keep it from her daughter…”

“I know, I’ll take care of this.” Abbott said.

“Okay.” The doctor turned around, “I have other patients waiting for me, excuse me.”

“Thank you.” Abbott said.

The doctor shook his hand and put his hands in the pocket of the white coat and headed toward the clinic.

Abbott headed for the stairwell that was less crowded and quieter. She called Matthew.

No matter what the outcome, she thought it would be best to report everything to Matthew first.

Matthew was lying there hugging Simona face to face. Simona put her arms around Matthew’s neck and was talking to him. “Daddy, can Grandma live with us when she comes back?”

The little girl tilted her head and asked very seriously.

Matthew pinched her little nose, “It’s up to you.”

“Then I’ll ask Grandma to stay with me. Then we can live together and I’ll be the happiest girl in the world.”

At that moment, Matthew’s phone rang.

He held his daughter with one hand and pulled out the phone with the other. It was Abbott’s. He answered and held the phone to his ear.

“The lady is out of the hospital with Jessica.” said Abbott to Matthew as soon as it connected.

Matthew hummed.

“Jessica…” Abbott didn’t know how to say it, he tried to phrase it correctly, “She has a family medical history of cancer. If she has it and it was genetic, then Mrs….”

‘If it’s really genetic, then Dolores and her children…’

Matthew clenched the phone tightly and narrowed his eyes, not expecting the news.

He lowered his voice, “I know.”

It wasn’t the darkest time, if Jessica didn’t have it, then it wasn’t genetic.

They could wait for the results to come back.

After ending the call, Matthew tossed the phone aside. His fingertip lifted his daughter’s jaw and looked at her closely. She had bright, clear, pure eyes, they looked like shining stars. Her beautiful face was like that of a doll, which was so adorable.

Matthew kissed her forehead and hugged her.

She was like an angle; the god would not deprive her of health. “Daddy …”
