Chapter 392 Nowhere
The child’s soft voice sounded like a lullaby.
After listening for a while, Eudora eventually fell asleep under the accompaniment of Juju’s sweet voice.
When she fell asleep, Juju whispered to Amos.
“Is Mommy asleep?”
Amos nodded. He took the picture book from her hand, and read it for her.Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.
The little girl also dozed off after a while. Amos got up and covered them with a blanket. Then, he went outside with his mobile phone.
He called Clint and spoke softly to him.
“Check on Gordon’s condition and see which hospital he is going to. Get his medical record from the hospital. Also, help me contact Doctor Leon and ask him if he knows any experts in treating dementia.”
Clint nodded and said, “I’ll make the arrangements right away.”
After hanging up the phone, Amos stood on the balcony for a while and then turned back.
The two princesses had fallen asleep in the room. He stood there and looked at their sleeping faces. After some time, he went over to hug them in his arms.
Amos vowed to give them everything that they wanted.
That way, would God finally take pity on them and give them more time together?
…
Eudora slept soundly. She dreamed that she had boarded a spaceship with Juju. The two of them drifted toward outer space, into the unknown.
A citadel of cumulus floated in front of them like cotton candy.
They were sheltered in the spaceship, safe and sound.
Not long after, Juju suddenly shouted, “Daddy!”
The airship turned its head and metamorphosed into Amos’ face.
“What’s wrong, my little princess?”
“Full speed ahead!” Eudora grinned.
“Alright!”
They sailed calmly above the clouds in the spaceship which Amos transformed into.
In her sleep, Eudora curved her lips and once again snuggled into Amos’s arms.
It was already night time when she woke up. She got a slight headache from the prolonged rest from the afternoon nap.
She sat up on the bed and rubbed her temples. The two spaces next to her were empty. Eudora got out of the bed in a daze, pushed open the door, and went out.
Looking down from the corridor on the second floor, she saw that there were suddenly a lot of people in the living room.
Eudora was stunned before she saw Amos standing up and making his way upstairs.
Eudora was about to ask the reason for the unexpected guests. The next second, Amos had already picked her up.
“The floor is cold. Why aren’t you wearing your shoes?”
Eudora did not notice that since the ground was covered with carpets, and it was not cold anyway…
Embarrassment filled her heart when the few men downstairs looked up as Amos carried her.
She could not escape his grasp. She was going to die of embarrassment this time.
After carrying her back to the room, Amos put on a pair of slippers for her and asked, “Do you want to meet them?”
Eudora was indeed a little curious. It seemed that the men were discussing something important. Since he had taken the initiative to ask, she responded.
“Sure…?”
“They are experts in treating dementia.”
Eudora was stunned. She thought that Amos would not like Gordon since he was so hostile to him!
“Why did you…” She pursed her lips.
Amos laughed and reached out his hand to hug her. “Honey, you are the only person in this world who could make me exert any effort.”
She was the only person in this world who could make him exert any effort.
That was the sweetest sentence that had ever reached Eudora’s ears in her entire life.
She nodded and stood up. “I’ll go!”
She was indeed a little worried about Gordon. It was a good opportunity to ask about the situation.
Eudora made her way downstairs and noticed that there were more people than she had imagined! Were these people really the experts in treating dementia. However, this was too much, wasn’t it?
At this moment, a person from the group had already approached her.
“Hello, Miss George. I’m the doctor who diagnosed Mr. George’s condition. I have always attended to him. It has been two years since he suffered from dementia. But the thing is, he was diagnosed with it only this year. Mr. George had been refusing treatment, and now, his condition had worsened from then on.”
Another person then followed up on his words.
“Miss George, I’m the doctor who prescribed Mr. George’s medicine. His dosage is also increasing fast, which means that he has actually noticed that his condition is getting worse.”
A third person came into the picture and said, “Miss George, I’m the attending doctor for Mr. George when he was hospitalized. To be honest, Mr. George has a lot in his mind, which perhaps was the main reason his illness had gotten worse rapidly. I suggest that he should be accompanied by his family members frequently to ease his worries…”
One by one, the doctors who were in charge of Gordon came forward with their respective explanations…
Even the doctors who had only made rounds when Gordon was in the hospital were there.
After Eudora silently listened to everyone’s description, she finally met the expert that Amos had found.
The expert made a perfect conclusion.
“Alzheimer’s disease is actually a godsend chance. The parents will forget everything and return to their purest time. The children will take on the roles of their parents who once took care of themselves and fulfill their filial piety. This disease could only be relieved by medicine for the time being, but it can’t be cured. The most important thing is the company of the family members…”
In fact, Eudora had known in her heart that this disease was not easy to treat. However, when she heard the expert’s words, she still felt a little crestfallen.
Seeing this, Amos gave a signal to his people.
Auntie Valerie immediately came over and sent the group of people out.
After they left, Amos came over and sat down beside Eudora.
“Now that things had turned out this way, it’s not the time to be sad. If you’re worried, why don’t we take him in and take care of him?”
For a moment, Eudora was stunned, “Is that okay?”
“Why not?” Amos laughed, “This is not only my home but also yours. You could make any decision!”
Eudora was gratified, but in the end, she still shook her head.
“Didn’t the doctor say that the patient would prefer a place where they are familiar with? We should keep him company instead of asking him to change a place. I would think that he would rather stay in his familiar place!”
Amos nodded, “Okay, your wish is my command!”
It was undeniable that Amos’s arrangement was actually perfect. She initially still had a lot of doubts in her heart, but now all of them were cleared. When she had a clearer grasp of this situation, she suddenly felt relieved.
She curved her lips and said with a smile, “You’ll do everything I tell you to?”
Amos laughed and said, “Again, true as it can be. Your wish is always my command.”
