Can’t Win Me Back by Ginger Sue
Chapter 1658

The Taylors were astonished to replace Julien at the hospital. Mandy's eyes widened in surprise as shedashed over to him. "Why are you here?"

"Jonah's dad is in trouble. I have to show up to help, no matter what it takes, Aunt Mandy." Juliengrinned, his lovely face covered in sweat.

Feeling horrible, Mandy stared at her feet. She was the one who chased Julien out of HeightsnewVilla, alerted the Lovelaces about it, and the reason Julien was humiliated in front of the Taylors.

She hadn't expected Julien to have dropped everything to help the Taylors when they were introuble, which would put him at risk of getting punished by the Lovelaces. This showed that he wasserious about Jonah.

Nevertheless, if the true love between Julien and Jonah would only land them in hot water, she'drather Julien treat Jonah as one of his many flings.

"Julien, how's Dad doing?” Alyssa and the rest of her family surrounded Julien, casting worried looksat him.

"Please brace yourself before listening to what I have to say." Julien directed a complicated look atJonah's face before scanning the others. "Mr. Winston's condition is not optimistic at all.

"I suggest keeping him away from work and following me to Mosgravia for follow-up treatments.From now on, he needs to focus on rehabilitation. If he takes the medical advice, he'll stand a betterchance at recovery.”

"Not optimistic? What's that supposed to mean?" Alyssa had a sinking feeling in her gut while theother family members spiraled into chaos.

Lyla, Tatiana, and Colene teared up when they heard the medical update.

"We've diagnosed Mr. Winston's incontinence as a side effect of drugs.”

"But Winston has just taken the drug twice. Even if there were side effects, they couldn't be thisserious!” Mandy was badly shaken. Cyrus had to hold her to stop her from collapsing.

After some hesitation, Julien decided to be upfront. "Every patient has a different tolerance to drugs.A younger man could have handled the side effects better, but given Mr. Winston's age, his healthdoes not allow him to undergo such extreme treatment.

"What happened last time was to save his life. After all, we don't want him permanently paralyzed orbrain dead, do we? But this time, things are different.

"After he is resuscitated, we should perform conventional treatments on him. The results will taketime to show, but at least he will be making slow and steady progress instead of experiencing thehorrible side effects like what happened today."

Jasper hung his head dejectedly. His arms went limp, and his fists tightened. He assumed the blamebecause all this wouldn't have happened if he hadn't provided Winston with the medicine.

"Julien, do you mean that Dad would sooner or later..." Alyssa's voice trailed off. She choked up,feeling like she was on pins and needles.

"This illness, in its advanced phase, will affect the patient's cognitive functions, leading to a decreasein cognitive abilities and IQ. The patient's bladder muscles might work as usual, but the patient willexperience incontinence due to losing muscle control from cognitive impairment,” explained Julien.He stared at the floor to conceal his emotions. "I obtained Mr. Winston's medical records from Mr.Benton to get an overview of his health over the past few years.

"He's been suffering from a moderate stroke, which he kept a secret from his family and the public.He has been desperately hanging on to his work and refusing to retire early.

"It would have been easier to treat a minor stroke. Now, all we can do is use the most advancedequipment and medication to alleviate his symptoms and slow down the disease’s progression.”Alyssa never once moved her eyes from Julien’s lips. Overwhelmed by sadness, she wept, knowingthat Winston would never recover.

The upsetting news struck the Taylor family like thunder. Would this spell the end for the Belbankstycoon and the King of KS Group?

Jasper received a call from Landon at that time. He quickly answered the call with his back turnedtoward the others. "Landon."

"Jasper, I saw the news. Mr. Winston's illness is the talk of the town. It sounds serious.” Landon'svoice was filled with concern. "Bro, tell me immediately if you need help. You and Lyse are morethan friends to me; you're family. I will try my best to help you no matter what happens.”

"Thank you, Landon." Jasper, in a bitter and hoarse tone, replied, "If you have the time, please lookfor experts in treating stroke in Cyrris and abroad. I'd like to help Mr. Winston and Lyse to the bestof my ability.”

"Your problem is of utmost importance to me. I'll utilize all resources in the Harper Group to get youthe medical expert.”
