The Taylors were astonished to find Julien at the hospital. Mandy's eyes widened in surprise as she dashed over to him. "Why are you here?" "Jonah's dad is in trouble. I have to show up to help, no matter what it takes, Aunt Mandy." Julien grinned, his lovely face covered in sweat.

Feeling horrible, Mandy stared at her feet. She was the one who chased Julien out of Heightsnew Villa, alerted the Lovelaces about it, and the reason Julien was humiliated in front of the Taylors.

She hadn't expected Julien to have dropped everything to help the Taylors when they were in trouble, which would put him at risk of getting punished by the Lovelaces. This showed that he was serious about Jonah.

Nevertheless, if the true love between Julien and Jonah would only land them in hot water, she'd rather Julien treat Jonah as one of his many flings.

"Julien, how's Dad doing?" Alyssa and the rest of her family surrounded Julien, casting worried looks at him.

"Please brace yourself before listening to what I have to say." Julien directed a complicated look at Jonah's face before scanning the others. "Mr. Winston's condition is not optimistic at all.

"I suggest keeping him away from work and following me to Mosgravia for follow-up treatments. From now on, he needs to focus on rehabilitation. If he takes the medical advice, he'll stand a better chance at recovery." Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ Find ɴøᴠel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Not optimistic? What's that supposed to mean?" Alyssa had a sinking feeling in her gut while the other family members spiraled into chaos.

Lyla, Tatiana, and Colene teared up when they heard the medical update.

"We've diagnosed Mr. Winston's incontinence as a side effect of drugs."

"But Winston has just taken the drug twice. Even if there were side effects, they couldn't be this serious!" Mandy was badly shaken. Cyrus had to hold her to stop her from collapsing.

After some hesitation, Julien decided to be upfront. "Every patient has a different tolerance to drugs. A younger man could have handled the side effects better, but given Mr. Winston's age, his health does not allow him to undergo such extreme treatment.

"What happened last time was to save his life. After all, we don't want him permanently paralyzed or brain dead, do we? But this time, things are different.

"After he is resuscitated, we should perform conventional treatments on him. The results will take time to show, but at least he will be making slow and steady progress instead of experiencing the horrible side effects like what happened today."

Jasper hung his head dejectedly. His arms went limp, and his fists tightened. He assumed the blame because all this wouldn't have happened if he hadn't provided Winston with the medicine. "Julien, do you mean that Dad would sooner or later..." Alyssa's voice trailed off. She choked up, feeling like she was on pins and needles.

"This illness, in its advanced phase, will affect the patient's cognitive functions, leading to a decrease in cognitive abilities and IQ. The patient's bladder muscles might work as usual, but the patient will experience incontinence due to losing muscle control from cognitive impairment," explained Julien.

He stared at the floor to conceal his emotions. "I obtained Mr. Winston's medical records from Mr. Benton to get an overview of his health over the past few years.

"He's been suffering from a moderate stroke, which he kept a secret from his family and the public. He has been desperately hanging on to his work and refusing to retire early.

"It would have been easier to treat a minor stroke. Now, all we can do is use the most advanced equipment and medication to alleviate his symptoms and slow down the disease's progression."

Alyssa never once moved her eyes from Julien's lips. Overwhelmed by sadness, she wept, knowing that Winston would never recover.

The upsetting news struck the Taylor family like thunder. Would this spell the end for the Belbanks tycoon and the King of KS Group? Jasper received a call from Landon at that time. He quickly answered the call with his back turned toward the others. "Landon."

"Jasper, I saw the news. Mr. Winston's illness is the talk of the town. It sounds serious." Landon's voice was filled with concern. "Bro, tell me immediately if you need help. You and Lyse are more than friends to me; you're family. I will try my best to help you no matter what happens."

"Thank you, Landon." Jasper, in a bitter and hoarse tone, replied, "If you have the time, please look for experts in treating stroke in Cyrris and abroad. I'd like to help Mr. Winston and Lyse to the best of my ability."

"Your problem is of utmost importance to me. I'll utilize all resources in the Harper Group to get you the medical expert."
