WantNovelChapter 1417:
Back then, when Eric's identity was confirmed by the Scott family, the others—Ferris’ sons and grandsons—had
started scheming to keep him out. They didn’t want him back.
Despite Ferris’ precautions, his eldest son had exploited a loophole—and Eric paid the price.
Ferris had dealt with it swiftly, sending his eldest son abroad in disgrace.
But he believed Eric had recovered after that surgery.
He hadn't expected this... a lingering effect?
The realization hit hard. His face went pale.
Then he turned to Hadley, a note of accusation in his voice. “Didn't he go for follow-up scans?”
“He did,” the chief answered before she could. “Mr. Scott had consistent check-ups.”
“Then how did it get this bad?” Ferris’ voice rose. His hands clenched.
“His last scan was a month ago,” the chief said calmly. “At the time, everything looked normal. But within a

“Stop explaining!” Ferris slammed the table, his voice sharp. “I'm asking— is my son in danger?”

of doctor are you?”
The chief physician broke into a cold sweat but stayed composed.
“There are two available options,” he explained. “Surgery or conservative treatment. Right now, the clot isn’t
large—but the location is difficult. It's surrounded by nerves and blood vessels, so surgery comes with significant
risk.” He continued steadily, “Conservative treatment would mean using medication to stop the bleeding and
dissolve the clot. But it doesn’t guarantee full control.”

He drew a slow breath. “Which path to take, Mr. Scott, is your decision.”
The room went quiet.
Ferris pressed his lips together, saying nothing.
How could he decide? Neither option promised safety. And at his age, after finally finding a son he could count on
to take over his empire—this was the trial they were handed.
Was this fate’s way of testing the Scott family?
