Chapter 446

He had always remembered these words.

"Master Patrick." Leon looked at his back and frowned, "There's no need to be so passive. As long as you are admitted for observation and request for a professional doctor to treat you, that does not mean you will not have the chance to succeed."

"Just like that year, when all the doctors were around me, I was like a mouse in a cage waiting for them to dissect and experiment, waiting for them to give me a little hope of survival for a long time, waiting all day long and feeling uneasy." Patrick slowly said.

As he spoke, he laughed.

Only he knew how torturous that period of treatment had been. Now, he had to play the role of a mouse again in the face of such a slim chance of survival.

He didn't expect that the only thing in this world that wouldn't leave him was his eye disease.

"Master Patrick, this disease..."

Leon frowned, his negative thoughts did not have the slightest bit of benefit to his illness.

"If I don't have surgery, how long will it take me to be completely blind?" Patrick interrupted him and looked at the lawn outside the hospital.

"Master Patrick, when you're completely blind, you won't be able to undergo surgery."

It's a relapse this time, and it must be worse than before.

Patrick said coldly, "How long until I become completely blind?"

He was obsessed with such an answer.

Leon was silent.

"Speak, I know you know." Patrick slowly turned around to look at Leon, and asked with an indifferent tone, as if he was asking something that had nothing to do with him.

Leon lowered his head, and said after a long silence, "If you take the medicine and take proper care of it, it should be around a year."

One year.

There was only one year left.

Patrick lowered his head to look at his hands, and looked at each of his fingers.

He let out a laugh, and suddenly asked, "Do you believe in God?"

Leon was startled, he did not expect him to suddenly ask this, and nodded, "Yeah."

"Then I must be cursed by God."

Patrick said as he lowered his eyes to look at his hands.

He must have been cursed. Otherwise, how could he have fallen to such a state?

The people he loved did not love him, and he had nothing left.

He must have been cursed, otherwise, why would the promises that the Alice made to him time and time again be never fulfilled?

She said she wanted to be in the same family as him, and she went back on her word.

She said that she wanted to hate William for life, and she went back on her words again.

When she said she would like him to accompany her in the future, she went back on her word.

As Leon listened, his eyes revealed a look of sorrow.

Master Patrick was a young and wise man, it could be seen from how he took care of Brown Family. If not for the young miss, Master Patrick would have developed much better.

"One year, follow me wholeheartedly for one year. In the future, you can go wherever you want to."

Patrick said to him.

"I owe a debt of gratitude to the Master Patrick. To the Master Patrick, I will not refuse even if I die." Leon expressed his loyalty.

"Don't mention my eye disease to anyone, just secretly make the medicine for me." Patrick stood there and said coldly, "In this year, I will have a lot of things that I will need you to do."

"Does Master Patrick really not want to undergo surgery?"

It was not a rational decision.

"Isn't the chance of recovery from surgery slim?" Patrick mocked, "I don't need to wait for the darkness like a weakling. I need to use this year to do many things."

Seeing him like this, Leon knew that he had made up his mind, and there was nothing he could do.

Patrick slowly turned around and raised his hand to cover the sunlight shining through the window. The sunlight shone through his fingers and into his eyes.

One year.

In another year, he would be plunged into darkness once more.

Then do what he always wanted to do but didn't dare to do, there was nothing that a person with nothing would lose, and there was nothing to worry about. "Knock, knock."

Suddenly, someone knocked on the door.

Patrick turned around and saw an Italian nurse standing at the door. She nodded to them and said, "Mr. Patrick, a lady wishes to see you."

Lady.

Patrick's expression was indifferent.

After the engagement ceremony, William could no longer be affected anymore and still received some negative comments. Even the market value of N.E began to fluctuate, but even so, it was still ranked number 1 in the world.

This position was unshakable.

From then on, William was defined as a crazy man for love.

Almost everyone knew how much William loved her. The official website had photographs of the two for a long time; as long as they were present, William's attention would be completely fixed on Alice. He would follow Alice around like an ordinary man.

At an international awards ceremony, what was presented to William was currently the world's highest prize in the field of science and technology. But before receiving the award, William disappeared from the guest seats.

Afterwards, a reporter interviewed William and asked him why he had left. William said casually, "It's too late, I was worried that my fiancee might not have covered in the blanket well enough, so I went back."

After this news came out, the entire world seemed to understand why this man publicly broke the engagement.

He loved Alice so much that he looked like a madman.

Gradually, many people began to guess how good Alice was to be able to receive such love from him.

The network was so developed, William was unable to wipe off all negative news that Alice bore.

However, in William's eyes, he could not see anything at all. He would still bring Alice to any event, and when he was discussing technological developments with the politicians, he would suddenly point at the flowers in the vase for people to bring back to Alice and then continue the business.

More than half of the women in the world would be jealous of Alice if they heard this news.

However, only Alice knew how heavy this love was. Right now, she did not dare to cry or lose sleep, speak to other men for more than three words, have too much of her own free time, and not dare to get sick or hurt. Because all of these would hurt William.

In the blink of an eye, Kathy was nine months old.

The weather in San Francisco was getting colder.

Inside the luxurious and exquisite castle, Alice was wearing a single piece of clothing. It was loose and comfortable as she sat on the sofa and flipped through a book in Italian.

Daniel squatted in front of the fireplace and lit it.

The temperature of the room was not low due to the heater, but Daniel always lit a fire in the fireplace, saying that it had a bit of an atmosphere.

He was a particularly romantic old man.

Alice looked at Daniel, and a hint of a smile appeared on her face. Then, she lowered her head and continued to read her book.

"Ya ya ya."

A childish voice rang out.

Alice raised her head and saw that the babysitter was pulling on Kathy's arms as she walked on the carpet. Kathy was wearing white clothes with a cute and beautiful face, and her hair seemed to be extremely soft. She had a pair of extremely beautiful eyes, as if the stars were hidden in them.

Kathy walked towards Alice step by step under the guidance of the babysitter. Her legs were weak and if there wasn't someone holding her, she would have fallen long ago.

"Kathy, come."

Alice put down the book in her hands and clapped.

Kathy laughed happily and pounced towards her. She laughed until saliva dripped from her small mouth. Alice helped her wipe it away.

"Miss Kathy is especially happy today. I don't know why, but she's been smiling ever since I woke up this morning. Maybe she was dreaming." The babysitter said.

Did she sense Holy?

So Holy, far away in England, must be in a good mood at this moment.

Elizabeth would never tell her that Holy was happy, she would only tell her that Holy was sick, that Holy was crying, and using these words to hurt her heart.

Alice responded to the reaction between the twins, so whenever Kathy was happy, she take it as happy for Holy too.

Alice accompanied Kathy on the sofa to play games, and taught her how to speak.

Kathy always looked at her eyes very seriously. Her pink lips were opened so wide while could not say anything, and her expression was a little dazed.

"No rush, take your time."

Alice said with a smile.

When Kathy went to grab the watch in her hand, Alice saw that it was already seven in the evening. She could not help but ask, "Steward Daniel, is William still not back yet?"

"It should be soon."

After Daniel left the hospital, not only did he become William's butler, he even became Alice's butler.

He was always following Alice.

Alice handed Kathy over to the babysitter, then walked over to the window and opened it. A gust of cold wind immediately blew in, causing her to tremble. She looked out the window. The road was empty.

Daniel walked over and closed the window for her considerately, then stood to the side and said, "Miss Alice, Young Master's 29th birthday party is almost done. I'll show you the arrangement of the ball and the guest list later."

William's 29th birthday.

On his last birthday, she was in the Tower of England; before the last birthday, she had only seen him in the newspapers.

Thinking about it, she had only known William for two years.

It had only been two years, but William had already become possessive for her. Everyone was flabbergasted, including Cullen Family.

"There's no need, Steward Daniel has always been watertight." Alice said with a smile.

"Miss Alice doesn't have any requests for the ball?" Daniel stood there and asked with a smile.

"I know that William's birthday party is also a social occasion, but I hope that the process will be as short as possible, I want a world only with him." Alice said.

She had never celebrated William's birthday before.

She wanted to spend this precious anniversary with him.

"Understood, I will arrange it."

Daniel said benevolently.

"You ask the butler about things like that? Alice, you really choose the right one."

A sinister voice sounded.
