Chapter 2053
The First Heir
Philip was dumbfounded at Dr. Garfield Gatesâ words.
Wynn had a hidden illness? She only had three years left to live?
How was this possible?
âDr. Gates, are you sure?â Philip looked a little unhappy. If not for the doctorâs superb medical skills, he
would have gotten someone to give him a bashing!
Dr. Gates nodded with a look of regret and said, âYoung Master Philip, thereâs no reason for me to lie to
you. Young Madamâs body is very special, indeed.â
Philip frowned, and his heart was in turmoil. His breathing became very rapid and tense.
Was Dr. Gates telling the truth?
Wynnie⦠How could she have only three years left to live?
âDr. Gates, what the hell is going on here? How can she have a hidden illness? She looks fine to me,â
Philip asked.
Dr. Gates shook his head and narrowed his eyes. Through the window, he glanced at Wynn who was
guarding Lydia at the bedside and asked Philip, âYoung Master Philip, let me ask you. Did the young
madam show signs of hemorrhaging during her recent childbirth?â
âYes!â Philip replied.
Indeed, Wynn had bled heavily during delivery.
Dr. Gates nodded and said, âThatâs right, then.â
âWhatâs going on?â Philip noticed the somewhat obscure and unfamiliar look on Dr. Gatesâ face, so he
quickly asked.
The doctor shook his head and looked at the moon in the sky before revealing his judgment. âYoung
Master Philip, when you were away just now, I observed the young madamâs complexion and facial
features. I found that the blood flow in the young madamâs body is abnormal. Itâs not as robust. To be
precise, the vitality in her blood is lacking. The hemorrhage during childbirth this time is also one of the
culprits. For more details, I need to give her a more thorough check-up.â
Philip was silent for a moment and said, âOkay.â
After that, the two returned to the living room.
âWynnie, come out for a moment. Dr. Gates will give you a check-up.â Philip forced out a smile on his
face and called out to Wynn who was sitting by the bed.
With a puzzled face, Wynn asked, âPhil, Iâm not sick. Why do I need a check-up?â
Philip walked over and said, âYou had a hemorrhage in the hospital last time. Iâm still worried about it,
so I asked Dr. Gates to give you a check-up and prescribe something to nourish your body.â
Hearing that, Wynn agreed. She got up and walked to the living room.
20 minutes later, Dr. Gatesâ face became more serious and unpleasant. He would also look at Wynn
from time to time. Finally, he stopped and sat on the chair. After pondering for a moment, he squeezed
a smile and said, âYoung Madam, thereâs nothing serious. I can just prescribe a few supplements for
you.â
Wynn nodded, bowed slightly, and said, âThank you, Dr. Gates.â
Philip sent Wynn back to the room before he walked out and met up with Dr. Gates in the yard.
âHow is Wynnieâs health?â Philip asked impatiently.
With a face full of hesitation, Dr. Gates shook his head and said to Philip, âYoung Master Philip, if my
diagnosis is correct, the blood in the young madamâs body is different from normal people. Iâve only
seen this kind of blood once in my life.â
âWhat do you mean?â Philip was full of confusion.
