One Night Surprise

Chapter 511 That Unknown Man

At Warmorth Hospital in Melrose, Angie had a cold gaze as she kept repeating the scene from earlier.

“Are you Regan’s relative?”

“He’s my uncle.”

“I’m afraid his condition is… not very good. He has advanced stomach cancer. It has been some time since he has been on compassionate release for treatment purposes. He kept refusing us to contact his family, but we have only done it now because…”

The man in the police officer uniform then paused for a bit before changing the subject.

“You should take a look at him. He seems to have something he wants to tell you.”

As the hallway of the hospital emanated wisps of cold air, Courtney tapped on Angie’s shoulder, pulling her back into reality.

“You should go in and have a look.”

Looking up with tears in her eyes, Angie nodded.

The condition of the hospital was not in a great state either as the ward had a slightly moldy smell, making it seem somewhat rundown. Standing at the door, she looked at the man in a daze.

He was struggling to breathe through his mouth while watching the lamp on the ceiling with dull eyes.

Back then, everyone used to call him ‘fatso’ because as his name suggested, he was on the broader side in terms of physique. However, one could only see a shadow of his former self as what lay there was only skin and bones.

This scene made Angie unable to hold back her tears as she covered her face and started to cry.

Hearing a sound, Regan could not help but move his eyeball before shifting his body and head to face Angie, who was still standing at the entrance of the ward. “You’ve come.”

His ghostly face had a weak smile on it and she could even hear that his voice was not as powerful as before. “I’ve come.”
