Chapter 1211
Brad didn't say anything. He looked a little unhappy.
His eyes were dim. He lowered his head and drooped his shoulders.
Eileen squatted down on the ground and stroked Brad's head. She said sorry again and again to him in a low voice.
After a long time, Brad finally looked up and said, "Mom, even though I'm unhappy about your no-show, I've decided to forgive you."
Eileen said with a smile, "Thank you. It won't happen again."
Luke and Brad left and she was left alone.
Eileen looked at herself in the mirror.
She wore light makeup and a long dress.
But she felt herself very funny, like a mawkish buffoon.
She stopped thinking, adjusted her mood and then decided to go to the hospital to get the medical examination report.
She had been suffering from flatulence and some indigestion, and she was losing weight.
So she went to the hospital for a medical examination two days ago.
The result of her medical examination may come out today.
Half an hour later, Eileen got out of the taxi and went into the hospital.
She waited for her turn from nine-thirty to eleven o'clock because there were a lot of patients.
"Eileen Barton?" The doctor pushed his glasses with his hand and said.
She nodded and said, "Yes."
"Advanced stomach cancer..."
Bang...
Eileen felt that her world had collapsed and her face turned pale. She asked, "What did you say?"
"The result of your medical examination has come out. You have advanced stomach cancer and the cancer cells are spreading..."
She heard nothing more of what the doctor said but felt as if flies were buzzing in her ears.
She didn't know how she walked out of the hospital.
The sun was hot, but she felt very cold.
She was like a ghost wandering in the street, without purpose and direction.
Eileen didn't get home until late afternoon.
The apartment was dark.
Neither Luke nor Brad had returned home yet.
With her hands holding her knees, she crouched in the corner of the apartment silently and immovably.
After a long time, there was a bang and the room brightened.
Luke pushed Brad, who was in a wheelchair, into the room. When he saw the figure crouched in the corner, he scolded her coldly, "What the hell are you doing?"
Then Eileen came back to her senses and said, "You are back."
"Mom," Brad called her sweetly.
"Hello, Brad."
After she had finished talking, when she saw Luke turning to leave, she called out to him, "Luke."
"What's the matter?"
He pursed his lips and his eyes were cold.
Eileen hesitated for a moment and then said, "Can you live here?"
She had terminal cancer, so she wouldn't live long.
She just wanted to spend more time with him and wanted him to develop a closer relationship with Brad.
Luke sneered with impatience, "What are you trying to do now? It is impossible for me to live with you."
Eileen felt heartbroken.
But she said, "Brad's got a broken leg, and I'm lame. It's very inconvenient for us to live alone."
"Can't the Bennington family afford a servant?"
"But he's your son."
Luke said coldly, "So what? You gave birth to him."
Eileen bit her lower lip and said, "Even though you hate me so much, Brad is innocent."
At this time, Brad, who was sitting in the wheelchair in silence, asked carefully, "Dad, do you hate Mom and me very much?"
