Chapter 1110:

With that, Julio swiftly exited the room with Dolores.

Eileen nodded to Marisa as she approached, holding Emerson in her arms.

Marisa, noticing Eileen’s presence, asked, “What are you doing here?”

“Dalores is a friend, and Emerson is indeed her son,” Eileen explained curtly before hurrying away. She could see that something was wrong with Dalores. Eileen quickly got into Bryan’s car with Emerson, while Julio drove Dalores to the hospital.

Back in the ward, Emerson underwent a general check-up. Fortunately, the ordeal had not worsened his condition. However, Dalores was in a dire state, and a team of psychologists was consulted for her care.

“Emerson has been diagnosed with leukemia, and the reason Dalores married Kinsey was to give Emerson a shot at a better life,” Eileen said, realizing there was no need to keep it hidden. She told Julio everything.

After a moment of contemplation, she hesitantly suggested, “Could Dalores be suffering from postpartum depression?”

Julio quickly dismissed the idea. “No, Dalores experienced a traumatic childhood event before. It’s likely that Emerson’s illness has triggered a mental health crisis for her.”

Eileen was taken aback, realizing she had misjudged the depth of Dalores’ struggles. Now, as she reflected on Dalores’ past behaviors, she realized how close she had been to a mental breakdown.

“When Dalores was a child, her parents abandoned her in a village, forcing her to fend for herself like an orphan. She had to beg for food from door to door, suffering through hunger, harsh weather, and constant bullying. Her mental health took a severe hit during those lonely years. I felt sorry for her and decided to support her, nursing her back to health.” As Julio recounted the painful memories, regret and sympathy welled up within him. He had never expected Dalores’ mental illness to resurface, nor had he thought that Dalores could go through the ordeal of childbirth all on her own.

Lₐtᴇst chαptɘrs in g𝒶lnovels.𝗰𝓞𝗺 Julio realized he should never have overlooked Dalores’ inherently kind nature or assumed she would choose to abort her child.

Eileen said, “If I had known what Dalores was going through, I would never have kept Emerson’s existence hidden from you. Although it’s a bit late, there’s still hope. Given Dalores’ condition, she can’t have another child to save Emerson. It would be best to transfer her to Onaland Hospital, where she can receive better treatment and have access to more resources.”

Dalores and Emerson both required more advanced medical care tailored to their specific conditions.

Soon, Dalores was given a sedative. The doctor stepped out with a sigh, saying, “Her mental illness is quite severe. If she is indeed having a relapse, you’ll need to be extra cautious. She has been through significant trauma, after all.”

Noticing Julio’s tightly clenched hands and the tension on his face, Eileen realized he hadn’t responded to the doctor’s words for quite a while.

She nodded at the doctor and replied, “Thank you. Before, I wasn’t really familiar with what she had been through. Please feel free to adjust her treatment based on how she’s doing now. And is it possible to transfer her to a different hospital?”

“Right now, the patient is emotionally unstable, and transferring her isn’t an option. We should revisit the idea once she’s ready to accept treatment and work with the medical team.” The doctor then went over some precautions with Eileen before leaving. Julio slumped on a bench in a daze.
