That shadow was the same question: could it be a tumor? Nick himself remained remarkably calm. He asked the doctor, \u201d I\u2019ve had annual checkups before. Nothing like this ever came up.\u201d \u201cYes, this kind of sudden lesion could be related to your old injury \u2026 The doctor sighed softly. \u201cBut we can\u2019t be sure yet. There\u2019s no need to worry too much. We\u2019ll only know after the biopsy.\u201d Seeing Nick fall silent, Lenny hurried to add, \u201cCould it just be a false alarm? Mr. Hunt has always been in good health.\u201d \u201cIt\u2019s possible\u2026<\/p>\n<p>of course it\u2019s possible.\u201d The doctor nodded stiffly, but he could not offer much more reassurance. A false alarm was certainly possible. But judging from what Nick had described\u2026 the chances were slim. \u201cIf it\u2019s what you suspect,\u201d Nick asked after a long pause, \u201ccan it be cured?\u201d The doctor replied, \u201cYou don\u2019t need to be overly anxious about that. Tumors vary in nature, and this one doesn\u2019t appear large. If it isn\u2019t malignant\u2026 conservative treatment would be an option.\u201d \u2014- Although Nick\u2019s body had recovered fairly well, it could not withstand surgery.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Whether malignant or benign, he could only undergo conservative treatment. \u201cThen I\u2026\u201d Nick\u2019s gaze drifted for a moment before fixing steadily on the department director. \u201cWill | die?\u201d The question of life and death had occupied his thoughts since he was very young. When he had been taken hostage by kidnappers, he had desperately not wanted to die. He kept telling himself that as long as he could live, that would be enough. The burdens he carried for being born into this world, the debts he owed, those who hated him, and those he hated-none of it mattered anymore. He only wanted to live.<\/p>\n<p>That yearning for life and fear of death left him without any sense of security for many years afterward. He pushed himself relentlessly, demanded perfection, disciplined himself in everything. He never wanted to fall back into helplessness again. Perhaps that was what drove him to keep charging forward. \u2014- Once you have walked along the edge of life and death, nothing else seems truly difficult. After despair, people always overestimate themselves, believing they can face anything calmly.<\/p>\n<p>It is only when they are thrust into the same situation again that they realize their fragility has never truly left. Nick clasped his trembling hands together. Even though the doctor had spoken only of possibilities, and there was still more than a fifty-percent chance he would be fine, he was already afraid. Afraid of dying. There were still so many things he had not done yet. The first of them was the future he had finally begun to sketch for himself-his own vision of happiness. He wanted to walk through the rest of life hand in hand with Khloe.<\/p>\n<p>He wanted to do countless things with the woman he loved, to travel across vast rivers and mountains together, to see the splendor of the world. Yet, perhaps it was precisely because Khloe was by his side that he felt this fear so keenly. Despair is despair because it crushes hope. \u2014- It was late autumn, and night came earlier and earlier. When Khloe returned home, it was not even five o\u2019clock yet, but dusk had already settled outside. The afterglow of sunset was gone. The curtains were still open, and the lights inside were off.<\/p>\n<p>Nick was sitting by the windowsill again-the place he liked most when he was with Khloe Hearing the door open, he rose and casually switched on the light. Khloe dropped what she was holding and rushed straight into his arms. These days, the first thing she did when she got home was hug and kiss him. Nick\u2019s body felt wonderfully familiar. His embrace was gentle enough to block out all the chill of the outside world-no matter how much she held him, it was never enough<\/p>\n<p>Please support our website by sharing this novel\u2019s link on your social platforms \u2014 Reddit, Facebook, WhatsApp, and Telegram.
