Chapter 859 Rufus Knew His Condition
Chapter 859 Rufus Knew His Condition
For so many years, Rufus withdrew from business world and seemed no longer in power, but he still
knew everything in his heart. Rufus changed. Being silent for so many years hadn't made him weak,
but instead made him sacred.
"I know. I must tell Maria exactly what you said. I will go home and teach her a lesson so that she will
never lose her temper casually."
"Rufus, you are right. We are a family and we should get along well with each other. We must be
united."
Thomas deliberately softened his attitude, but he didn't feel relaxed.
Rufus deliberately talked about family, because he had everything, and the Bennet Group was firmly in
the hands of his family. While he, Thomas, had nothing but a little share.
It was easy to say profound ideas. Thomas really wanted to know if Rufus could say such nice words if
everything in the Bennet family was in his hands.
Isobel had been worrying about Rufus all the time. Even with jet lag, she would take the time to ask
about Rufus' condition. But when she videoed with Winnie, she had to restrain her worries. "Winnie,
you did the right thing. At this time, you are right to choose to stay. Megan and Luke are your children,
so you can't cause trouble to others at this time."
"Living in the suburbs is good for the children's safety, but you should also pay attention to Brian. I don't
hate Brian, but in all aspects..."
Isobel still didn't want Winnie and Brian to be together, but Winnie knew what she meant before she
finished her words.
"Auntie, I understand. Don't worry, I know it. Now I hope you will come back soon to help me take care
of the children, and I will be able to have rest."
Winnie thought the same as her aunt. She knew that she couldn't use the opportunity to get closer to
Brian, and she couldn't give Brian any chance. Winnie didn't want to give Brian the chance to like her or
the chance to hurt her.
Isobel felt distressed every time she heard Winnie's words. It was her selfishness and her fault that
made Winnie have to miss the person she loved most.
And every time she thought about it, Isobel was confused. She was confused whether she should be
so selfish or not and whether she should ignore Winnie's feelings.
"That's fine. By the way, when will Rufus have a minor operation?"
Isobel's guilt could not be released, so she could only change the subject.
"We will tell him tonight that he will have surgery tomorrow."
Winnie had just received the news not long after, this time Brian did not ignore her, but asked her to be
present.
"How is he?"
Isobel was a little nervous, wondering how Rufus would react when he knew it.
"He's okay now. I don't know how he will be tonight."
Winnie didn't know. She didn't know how shocking the bad news was for Rufus.
"Does Vanessa have classes in the evening? If she has no classes, take Vanessa to the hospital. One
more person and one more persuasion will also be a comfort to Rufus."
What Isobel could help was to let Vanessa go to the hospital. She was his daughter, and being beside
him would give him strength invisibly.
"Vanessa has no class tonight, I will tell her when she comes back from school."
"By the way, auntie, is grandpa' s or grandma's blood group is type AB RH(-)?"
Winnie suddenly remembered it. She was also curious about who passed it on to Vanessa.
"Neither. Why did you suddenly ask this question?"
Isobel answered Winnie's question directly without much thought, and wondered why Winnie asked
this.
"Rufus' blood group is type AB RH(-), and the blood in this hospital is insufficient. It happens that
Vanessa is of the same blood type as him, so I asked Vanessa to donate some blood to him. Kevin
said this blood type is mostly due to heredity neither my parents nor you. My parents and you are not of
this blood type. Thus, I think grandparents' blood group is type AB RH(-)."
"I am wrong. Then Vanessa is..."
When Winnie felt strange, Isobel interrupted her suddenly.
"Not all blood types are inherited by families. This is not absolute."
"Winnie, I have to work now, goodbye."
Isobel quickly hung up the phone after speaking in fear.
She even forgot that Rufus' blood group was type AB RH(-). Why did she say it so naturally? If Winnie
had doubts, it would be exposed.
Winnie looked puzzled at the phone in her hand. She doubted the reason why her aunt hung up in a
hurry. Isobel ignored two children again.
The two children were Isobel's treasure. She would ask how they were each time she called Winnie.
How busy she was that she ignored the two children two times!
In the evening, the children were left to Paul and Raya, Winnie, Brian and Vanessa went to the hospital
together.
When they arrived at the hospital, Stella and Joshua had already arrived.
"Why are you here? I have had dinner, and there is no need for an infusion. Why are you here?"
Stella and Joshua arrived when Paul returned home. Rufus thought planned to ask Stella and Joshua
to go back when Paul came back. Unexpectedly, Paul didn't come, but Brian and the others were here.
However, such a t scene made Rufus a little uneasy.
Although in the hospital these days, Rufus did not feel any better. Although he had been put on a drip,
he didn't feel better. At first, he was a little worried, but their presence made him even more nervous.
"We are here see if you listen to the doctor."
It was Vanessa who spoke, deliberately speaking in a mischievous tone. But she was more nervous
than anyone else, and she was nervous for no reason.
"I am fine. You don't have to worry about me."
Rufus did grin because of Vanessa's words, but he didn't relax.
Just then, Kevin opened the door and walked in.
"You're all here."
Kevin knew that they were here, and the atmosphere in the ward was a little tense.
"You are here too. It seems that my diagnosis has come out."
Rufus understood the reason all the people were there the moment he saw Kevin come in.
What he calls diagnosis was nothing more than two. One was that he could be discharged, and the
other was that his illness was very serious. The first one was quickly rejected by him, because his body
showed no signs of good health.
Then there was only one answer, he was suffering from a very serious illness.
Rufus' words were heavy for everyone, and none of them responded.
"Who will tell me? All of you came here together. Silence can't solve the problem."
Seeing the on one spoke, Rufus could only urge.
His urge made Stella cry. She couldn't control her emotions and couldn't bear the inner suffering of her
father when she knew it.
"Let me say."
No one wanted to say it. Thus, Kevin could only volunteer to take on this task.
"Rufus, don't worry, it's not a serious illness. It's just that there is a tumor in your lungs."
Kevin knew this was cruel, but he had to say it. Rufus had to cooperate with the operation, and they
couldn't hide his illness form Rufus, such a clever man.
The word tumor was enough to make Rufus's uneasy heart fall completely. He was upset, but he still
looked calm.
"Benign or malignant?"
Rufus asked calmly.
"I don't know yet. We need you to undergo a minor operation and then a laboratory test before we can Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.
know it."
Kevin answered, and everyone else was worried about Rufus' emotions.
Rufus remained silent, got up from the sofa, and walked slowly to the window.
He understood what the so-called minor surgery was, but now no one knew whether his tumor was
benign or malignant. If it was malignant, everything about him will fall to nothing.
"Dad, don't worry too much, it's just a minor operation."
Stella cried and comforted her father, but she felt such comfort was powerless.
"Stella, don't cry. Don't worry. It is just a minor surgery."
Rufus was distressed that Stella, who was pregnant, was still worried about him. He turned around to
comfort her. If it was really a minor surgery as Stella said, Stella would not cry.
"Tumor, I have a tumor too. It's okay, nothing to be afraid of."
Rufus was nervous, but he had to be calm in front of the children.
"Well, I will have this minor operation, but I have to know the result."
"You have to respect my opinion after knowing the result. If the tumor is benign, I will continue the
operation. If it is malignant, none of you have to persuade me, I will not receive treatment."
Rufus thought about it just now. He didn't want to waste time on treating the disease if it was a
malignant tumor, he would solve everything in the shortest possible time, so that the living would
continue to live and be happy.
"Why? You have to receive treatment as you are ill. Now medicine is..."
"It doesn't make sense. It's a waste of time. I still have a lot of things to do. I can't die on the operating
table."
Rufus interrupted Stella. He knew they would insist on letting him receive treatment. But few people
with malignant tumors could be cured.
"Uncle, being sick is not terrible. Don't be burdened. You are the strongest. You are my male god. You
won't be afraid."
Vanessa persuaded Rufus in a chatty tone, just to ease the current tense atmosphere.
"I am not afraid of illness. I am afraid of having regrets."
Rufus understood what Vanessa meant, but he really had too many things to do.
It was false to say that he was not afraid. No matter how powerful a person was, he could not keep
calm in the face of death. But he really needed time make up for his fault.
Now he even felt that he was too cowardly before, and he lost himself. He even felt that his entire life
had been wasted by himself.
"There is no regret. Do whatever you want. As long as you don't care about other people's feelings,
operating table was not a terrible place. You will be fine. You can make up for regrets after undergoing
the surgery."
It was Vanessa who was still talking. She felt only she could make Rufus feel better.
She knew what Rufus regretted, and knew why he was afraid that he would die on the operating table.
It was all because of his unfulfilled wish.
At this moment, Vanessa felt that Stella and Brian's persistence dragged Rufus for a lifetime.
"Okay, I will listen to you. I will undergo the surgery tomorrow."
Rufus didn't want to disappoint Vanessa, and responded to Vanessa with a smile. But this operation
was special, and he still insisted on his idea.
