Chapter 511 Gracks Beneath the Calm
Finished
After receiving the news, Marcelo and Maxwell rushed over at once, followed closely by Raymond.
“Mrs. Nygard’s condition is quite serious. She has severe myasthenia gravis. Had she never been examined for this before?
“Why was she only brought in now, after it had progressed to such a serious stage?”
The attending physician carefully explained Emery’s condition in detail.
His words stunned the Nygard brothers and Raymond. None of them could quite believe it.
“Doctor, could this be a misdiagnosis?” Raymond asked urgently. “How could this happen? My wife has ánnual checkups, and she’s had them even more frequently recently.
“We’ve never been told she had anything like this.”
Standing nearby, Gianna also put on a look of shock and concern, murmuring, “How could this happen? How could this be?”
“This illness is often overlooked in its early stages,” the doctor replied. “It’s not uncommon for it to be mistaken for more ordinary conditions.
“I reviewed her previous test results. Early on, there were very few obvious symptoms. The question is why it worsened so rapidly.
“Was she exposed to any major emotional shock recently? Many conditions cannot tolerate strong stimulation. Otherwise, they can deteriorate quickly.”
At the doctor’s words, the members of the Nygard family pressed their lips together in silence.
Recently, the household had been in utter turmoil. Who had suffered the greatest blow was something they all understood without it being said.
Raymond clenched his fists discreetly and cast a glance toward Gianna in the distance, a dark glint flashing briefly in his eyes.
But he did not dwell on it. Instead, he turned back to the doctor and asked urgently, “Doctor, can her condition still be controlled? What does the treatment plan look like going forward?”
The attending physician adjusted his glasses and answered seriously, “The condition is already quite severe. She needs to be hospitalized as soon as possible so we can run a full series of tests and evaluations and formulate a detailed treatment plan.
“However, severe myasthenia gravis is complex to treat. The course of treatment will be long, and the prognosis is difficult to predict,”
Marcelo and Maxwell exchanged a look, both of them deeply worried.
Marcelo spoke up. “Doctor, rest assured. No matter the cost or the methods required, we will fully cooperate with the treatment.”

Chapter 511 Cracks Beneath the Calm
Finished
The physician nodded. “That’s good. The family should also prepare themselves mentally. During this time, pay close attention to the patient’s emotional state. Maintaining a positive mindset is also very important for recovery.”
At that moment, Emery slowly regained consciousness.
Unfortunately, although she was awake, her entire body felt devoid of strength.
She wanted to speak, but she did not have the energy to utter a single word.
Unable to speak, she could only glare at Gianna in the distance with eyes filled with resentment and hatred.
That look was so fierce it seemed as though she wanted to tear her apart on the spot.
Then her gaze shifted, softening into a mix of grievance, lingering affection, and deep bitterness as she looked at Raymond.
“Get some proper rest. I’ll make more time to come see you in the coming days,” Raymond said gently.
“As for what happened before, when you’re a bit better, I’ll explain everything to you carefully.”
After decades of marriage, Raymond could easily read the meaning in her eyes.
He felt he needed to tell her some things, at least in part.
Otherwise, given her temperament, she would keep spiraling in her thoughts, unable to pull herself out of the blow she had suffered.
And if that happened, it would only play into certain people’s hands.
After making all the necessary arrangements, Raymond left the hospital.
Before leaving, he specifically asked Gianna to leave with him.
“I heard from your brothers that you were asked to temporarily move out of the Nygard Residence and stay at another villa so you wouldn’t stimulate her.
“Knowing that, why did you insist on coming here anyway?”
Faced with Raymond’s questioning and suspicion, Gianna’s heart skipped a beat.
She had been secretly relieved when that old woman collapsed. If she could not speak, she would not be able to reveal what had happened between them in the room earlier.
