Chapter 651 Ethan's Decision

Day Seventy-One...

~~*****~~

[ At Towerville City District Hospital... ]

Butler Li found himself in a state of panic as he hastily rushed young Ethan to the hospital. Earlier in the day, when Ethan had returned home, there was a palpable sadness in his eyes, but Butler Li had chalked it up to fatigue from a long day at school. After dropping by his father's room, the young master stayed in his room and never came out.

Growing increasingly concerned, Butler Li eventually ventured into Ethan's room and was met with the sight of the young boy crying incessantly. It was a rare occurrence; Ethan had never shed tears like this before.

His heart filled with unease, Butler Li couldn't ignore the obvious distress any longer and gently inquired about what had transpired. Ethan's response was a mere mumble, indicating he was in pain.

Without wasting another moment, Butler Li made the critical decision to rush Ethan to the nearest hospital. His primary concern was Ethan's well-being, and he acted swiftly.

Simultaneously, he reached out to inform Nathan of the situation, ensuring that Ethan's father would be aware of the urgency and gravity of the matter.

However, the moment Ethan and Butler Li arrived at the hospital, Ethan's demeanor underwent a remarkable transformation. He suddenly appeared calm and composed, as if the turmoil that had gripped him had dissipated into thin air.

The attending doctor, concerned about his condition, inquired about the cause and severity of his pain, but Ethan chose to remain tight-lipped, leaving the doctor with limited information to work with.

Nevertheless, the medical team proceeded to conduct a series of tests and admitted Ethan to a private ward for further observation and care.

Once the doctor had departed, Butler Li approached his young master, his concern evident in his voice.New n0vel chapters are published on

"Young master, you really should confide in the doctor about what you're experiencing so they can provide you with the appropriate treatment," Butler Li implored.

Ethan, however, maintained his calm demeanor and replied, "I'm fine. Please, don't worry about me. But there's something I need to discuss with you. Can I trust you?"

At that moment, as the room seemed to brighten with their presence, Ethan knew that no matter the challenges that lay ahead, he had his two most cherished people by his side. Their presence alone was a balm for his soul, providing the comfort and solace he so desperately needed.

"Mom! Dad!" Ethan called them instinctively. Those words just naturally came out of his mouth.

In a heartbeat, both Jane and Nathan rushed to his side, their faces etched with worry and love. Jane reached him first and enveloped Ethan in her warm and comforting embrace. Her voice was filled with genuine concern as she asked, "Ethan, how are you feeling? What happened? Why did you suddenly fall ill?"

Ethan's heart swelled with a mixture of emotions at the sight and touch of Jane. It was a moment of immense reassurance, the feeling of their presence dispelling the anxiety that had gripped him earlier.

As he lay in Jane's embrace, he felt the warmth of her love, and her questions only underscored the depth of their concern for his well-being.

'How I wish she was my biological mother. Not anyone else.' Ethan murmured in his mind.

Nathan, on the other hand, gently ran his fingers through his son's hair, his touch conveying both affection and relief. "You had us both deeply worried," he admitted, his voice tinged with a mixture of concern and gratitude.

Hearing the distressing news about Ethan had initially filled him with a sense of dread, but now, knowing that his son wasn't gravely ill, a wave of relief washed over him.

"Now, you must tell us what happened," Nathan asserted with a sense of determination, his fatherly concern evident.

With a reassuring smile, he decided to take the path of deception, convinced it was for the best. "I'm fine, Dad. Really," he replied, his tone attempting to downplay the seriousness of the situation.

"I just had a bit of an upset stomach. Butler Li must have overreacted." It was a difficult decision, but he believed that, for now, keeping the secret was the safest course of action.

But unknown to Ethan, Jane, and Nathan wanted to get to the bottom of this. Nathan already summoned Ethan's nanny and bodyguards to interrogate them about how Ethan suddenly got ill. The bodyguards and his nanny were now on the way to the hospital to meet Nathan.

Meanwhile, since Jane showed up together with his father, Ethan couldn't contain his happiness. His anxiety was now diverted and he just wanted to seize this moment.

Jane's unexpected arrival had lifted his spirits and filled him with happiness. In this moment, he longed to embrace the joy of their reunion, cherishing the rare opportunity to be surrounded by the love and warmth of Jane and Nathan, even in the face of the undisclosed secrets and uncertainties that loomed over them.
