Eleven Years All to the Wrong Man novel Chapter 175

Luevacom was a specialized inhibitor drug. In all of Aurelia, it was only available at major hospitals in a few select cities like Averton City and Graymont.

Nathan thought for a moment, then asked, “When are you coming back?”

Coming back… The timing was uncertain.

Emma hesitated before saying, “Next week, probably…”

After so many years away, she wanted to stay and spend the holidays with her parents. After this year, she didn't know if she'd be alive to come back again.

Nathan frowned, concerned. “Listen to me. You’ve already stopped chemotherapy, and you’re pregnant. If you stop taking this medication for an extended period, it could cause serious harm to your body, and could even be life-threatening. Do you understand?”

Acute leukemia wasn't like a common cold, where forgetting to take medicine or stopping it altogether might still allow the body to heal on its own.

Emma knew this, of course, and had considered it. She was torn.

She definitely didn't want to leave Riverside Millford early to go back to Averton City just for the medicine. But if she went back just to pick it up and then returned, she would have a hard time explaining it to Evan.

As Emma wrestled with her thoughts, Nathan, who had been silent on the other end, spoke up.

“Do you have something urgent to attend to in Riverton City?”

Something urgent?

Spending time with her family when she was dying probably counted as urgent, she thought.

Emma nodded, then remembered he couldn't see her over the phone. “Yes,” she said. “I’ll probably need to stay in Riverton City for another three to five days.”

After hearing this, Nathan was quiet for a few seconds before asking in a serious tone, “Are you free tomorrow afternoon?”

“Huh? What?”
