---- Chapter 571 The young doctor's body stiffened at his words. "What... what do you mean?" "Ah," the director said quietly, "Mr. Hunt has a secretory gastric tumor." They had arrived in a rush, so he could only give her a brief explanation for now. The young doctor was responsible solely for monitoring him during this trip. The director, as the attending physician, oversaw all medical decisions. She was there as backup in case anything unexpected happened and needed to be aware of Nick's condition. After reviewing the report, her face paled noticeably.
Seeing her on the verge of tears, the director cleared his throat. " | understand your concern, but this isn't like hospitals abroad." In foreign hospitals, they were trained to empathize deeply with patients. When confronted with serious illnesses, they sometimes cried more than the patients themselves. But this wasn't a performance. She truly felt heartache. Nick was such a good man, so young, and yet... afflicted with ---- this disease. "What can we do... he just got married. Does his wife know?" she asked, her voice tight with worry. The director shook his head. "No.

"lunderstand," she said, nodding seriously, and took the medical files to study them quietly. ---- Though multiple biopsies had confirmed the diagnosis, she instinctively hoped to find some hidden detail, some loophole The director mentioned Nick's recent injury-a widely reported incident in domestic news.
He had risked his own life for the nation while representing the Hunt family, showing remarkable courage and ensuring the success of a major public welfare project. Someone like him... how could fate treat him this way? The young doctor recalled the advice her father had once given: for certain neutral tumors, conservative modern treatments aren't always more effective than traditional remedies. She had been raised by her mother; both parents were doctors, but from different schools of thought. Her father believed in traditional alternative medicine and ancient formulas.
They required patience and precision; without it, results were slow and occasionally disastrous. Their ideological differences had split the family when she was young. She had followed her mother, learning modern medicine. Her father had written to her repeatedly, sharing insights on treating neutral tumors. He was stubborn in his beliefs-willing to fail repeatedly rather than compromise. She had dismissed his advice... until now. ---- Nick's gastric tumor... aligned perfectly with the focus of her father's recent research. Meanwhile, in Naraida, the Morrison family estate
