Chapter 1107 - 576: Extra Story: Brother, Let Me Stay by Your Side, Okay? 2

Alice looked at Keith Antony in a daze."Actually, the boss really fainted that day and was hospitalized... At the time, I was really scared out of my wits, I was so panicked, so I quickly dialed your number..."

"You said he fainted?"

Keith Antony closed his eyes in pain, "Yes... the boss fainted from a headache."

"But wasn’t he just slightly injured that day?"

Keith Antony shook his head, "After arriving at the hospital, under the care of the doctors, the boss woke up not long after... Upon waking, he found out I had notified you, so he asked the doctor to stage an arm injury, in fact not wanting you to know his condition."

Alice furrowed her brows, "Why didn’t you tell me when I was at your hospital..."

Keith Antony said innocently, "Because at that time, I also didn’t know the reason for the boss’s fainting, I thought the boss was just overly tired recently... Later, the boss drove you home, and halfway there, he suddenly asked you to get out of the car. I was puzzled by his actions, not understanding why his expression changed, but as I was wondering, I found that the boss had already fainted in the seat..."

Alice kept shaking her head, her eyes wide open, unable to believe such a truth.

Keith Antony continued, "I once again took the boss to the hospital, this time discovering his physical condition, calling his former attending physician, Director Turner... Director Turner had been in Paris and rushed to the boss’s side, bringing three internationally renowned brain specialists... They immediately conducted an examination, and when I saw their solemn expressions through the glass window, I knew the boss’s situation was very serious."

At this point, Keith Antony’s voice choked, he sniffed, "I heard their conversation with the boss... They said the boss must undergo surgery soon because the bleeding is spreading; if he doesn’t undergo a craniotomy to remove the blood clots, he’ll faint more frequently...":

"Then why not arrange the surgery?" Alice asked urgently.

Keith Antony answered, "If the surgery could make the boss well, how could he possibly not undergo it? The key issue is the huge risk of the surgery. I heard Director Turner say, the craniotomy isn’t difficult, but removing the blood clots from the boss’s brain is extremely hard. You see, the human brain contains countless nerves and blood vessels, the most fragile part of the human body, slight mishaps could mean the boss might never wake up... When the boss initially woke up, Director Turner already requested the surgery because regardless of the risks, if the boss doesn’t undergo it, once the bleeding spreads, the surgery will only become more challenging, but the boss disagreed then because he was more aware than anyone of the dangers... The boss said that in cases like his, globally, only twenty percent survive post-surgery, while eighty percent die under anesthesia during surgery..."

When she heard this, Alice heavily leaned her back against the chair, falling into a long stupor.

Keith Antony took a deep breath and said, "Miss Alice, I originally didn’t plan to tell you about the boss’s condition because I knew you’d worry, but if I don’t clarify this matter now, I’m afraid there will be things you’ll doubt when I tell you later."

Alice looked at Keith Antony with unfocused eyes.

Keith Antony said seriously, "Miss Alice, although the boss may not be able to give you that kind of affection, his care for you remains... I never understood why the boss stayed in Paris instead of returning to T City, he actually wanted to teach you how to manage the family business, but when you argued with him, he left Paris in anger, yet he has always secretly cared about you... You might not see what the boss does, but I see it clearly... Take the romance between you and General Laurence, for example, that’s actually the boss’s arrangement behind the scenes!"

Alice was left speechless.

"Miss Alice, try recalling where you first met Claud Laurence?"

"The ’Jorna’ Hotel."

"That’s right, the ’Jorna’ Hotel... At the time, the missy broke a glass ornament, and you were arguing with the hotel staff, which caught General Laurence’s attention... But do you know, the hotel manager leading General Laurence along that corridor that day had actually received money from me, I instructed him to create an opportunity for General Laurence to notice you, hence the manager purposely made things difficult for you, ensuring General Laurence would notice you... Also, when you later applied to play piano at the ’Jorna’ Hotel, if not for me arranging things there, no matter how well you play the piano, it’s unlikely someone with no work experience would be hired by a five-star hotel? Also, the boss took you to that banquet, saying he wanted you to meet some investors, but actually, he wanted you to get to know General Laurence..."
