When Her Death Couldn't Break Him (Cecilia and Nathaniel) novel Chapter 583

Chapter 583 His Condition Has Worsened
“The child was brought in just in time, so there's no longer a life-threatening risk,” the doctor said. “However, we will need to conduct frequent follow-up examinations to prevent any aftereffects of frostbite.”

Upon hearing those words, a wave of relief washed over Miranda instantly.

“All right, thank you, doctor.”

She and Adrian immediately went to the ward to see their child.

Cecilia, upon realizing the doctor hadn't mentioned Elliot, quickly asked, “Doctor, how is my son, Elliot, doing now?”

The doctor let out a sigh.

“The child suffers from leukemia, and his condition has worsened recently. It's necessary for him to be admitted to the hospital for proper observation and treatment.”

His condition has worsened...

Cecilia realized she actually hadn't known that.

As a mother, she truly felt she wasn't up to the mark.

Astonishment filled Elena's eyes as she and Niel grasped the doctor's words. “Eli has leukemia?”

“As his family members, are you only finding out about this now?” the doctor countered.

Elena was rendered speechless.

Following that, the group headed to check on Elliot and Felix in their hospital room.

Elliot was covered in medical equipment when he woke up. He looked at Cecilia and the people surrounding her, slowly saying, “Mommy, I truly didn't harm Felix.”

Cecilia nodded. “Yeah, I believe you. You should rest well; no need to talk.”

Elena also wore a look of worry.

“Eli, both your great-grandpa and I believe you. We know it was that brat Felix who started the trouble. Don't be afraid! As your grandma, I'll stand up for you.”

Elliot was still unable to accept his newly-acquired grandmother and turned his face away.

Elena wore an expression of embarrassment, yet the adoration in her eyes was undeniably genuine.

The two kids were temporarily out of danger, and Niel had had his fair share of distress, so he told Nicholas and the others to return home first.

Subsequently, he called both Cecilia and Elena to join him outside.
