Chapter 114
The doctor did not answer immediately, and instead asked, “Is your family with you?”
Samantha, who had been standing at a corner, promptly replied, “I’m his wife.”
Like any other human being, Samantha yearned dearly for the one thing she lacked. While she was
just a mistress, she certainly would never miss a chance to introduce herself as Mrs. Spencer out in the
open!
“Is my husband alright, doctor?” she asked then.
“No, there’s no need for worry,” the doctor replied “Anyway, I’ll be writing a receipt for you, Mr. Spencer.
There’s another test you should take ”
After writing on a piece of paper and passing it to Lionel Spencer, the doctor said, “You can go now.
Your wife can stay.”
Lionel, however, could tell that the doctor was trying to send him out of the room. “Just be honest with
me, doctor,” he said. “There’s no need to lude anything from me I’m prepared for the worst.”
The doctor stayed awkwardly silent for a moment, and said, “Very well.
“He read through the reports again, and finally told Lionel, “You have a malignant brain tumor.
Despite having prepared himself mentally, Lionel almost fell off his chair from sheer shock, his knuckles
balling into fists on his lap just then.
Samantha naturally lost composure as well, since Lionel was basically her sugar daddy. “It’s just a
cough, doctor! How could it be a brain tumor? Could there have been a mistake?”
“It’s probably metastasizing,” the doctor replied. “The dry cough is a symptom that it’s moved to the
throat and lungs.”
“There must be a mistake!” Samantha snapped.
Lionel did not have it in him to flip out just then. “Please, leave us.’
Samantha, however, seemed to not hear him. “Let’s go to another hospital. This place is full of quack
doctors! You’re just fine, there must be a mistake”
“That’s enough!” Lionel barked, his ire getting to him.
He was already in a bad mood, but she just had to keep yapping!
Samantha reluctantly turned quiet.
Feeling chagrined, Lionel said, “Sorry about that, doctor.”
The doctor waved him off-he certainly understood, and there were other patients whose family
members reacted worse.
“How… How long do I have left?” Lionel asked even as he worked hard to keep himself together.
In the end, everyone is inevitably afraid to die, and few have ever faced death with grace and
fearlessness.
“We will require further tests,” the doctor replied. “You should get admitted now if possible.”
“I will think about it…” Lionel mumbled.
“Of course,” the doctor said, and handed him his reports. “Of course, you can have further tests at
another hospital if you want.”
Lionel appeared deflated and took the folder quietly, got up, and left.
Samantha followed him, saying, “We should consult another hospital… They might have messed up
here.”
It only served to annoy Lionel, who just wanted peace and quiet, only for her to keep prattling on!
“Just shut up if you don’t want me to die!” he growled.
“But I’m doing this for your own good,” Samantha complained softly.
Lionel was not bothered with her just then-he did not even have the strength to speak after finding out
about his sickness.
Meanwhile, Irene had returned to the mansion.
However, the men Stan brought with him were still around, standing guard outside the mansion to stop
her from escaping.
It was basically a house arrest that lasted over a month.
In that time, Isaac never showed up, and she never had contact with the outside world. Cut off from all
outside contact, she had to idle her days away.
On the other hand, Harvey was not that lucky.
Isaac was furious, but since he could not vent it at Irene, Harvey had to take the brunt of it.
He launched a campaign to sabotage all projects Gooding Enterprises had, and did not care if it hurt
his checkbook!
Harvey was left on the verge of bankruptcy, and news of his company’s unstoppable decline kept
making headlines!
With all their projects basically killed off, Harvey finally caved to the pressure and sought out Isaac,
explaining that there was nothing between him and Irene-they were just putting up an act to upset him.
His words were: “I just wanted to annoy you, and Irene wants to divorce you. It was just a common
goal, and we agreed to pretend as if we are in a relationship! There is actually nothing between us at
all!”
Irene finally found out when Isaac showed up at the mansion again.
