Chapter 467


    Joyce walked straight to the end of the aisle and gently pushed open the door of the box.


    The dim light, the quiet environment, it was as if she was now traveling back in time when she went


    through the door.


    Garrett was already sitting inside waiting.


    She subconsciously nced at her watch, 6:50. Luckily, she wasn''tte. It was Garrett who had arrived


    early.


    The dining table was ced under a set of small chandeliers, and the yellowish glow on the porcin


    white tableware made the atmosphere particrly soft.


    Garrett looked up slowly, saw Joyce approaching, and offered to speak, "There you are."


    "Mr. Henderson." Joyce bowed politely, then took a seat across from Garrett.


    When she saw Garrett again today, she did feel somewhat surprised. Garrett had obviously aged a lot.


    It was just over two years, and it was as if it had been decades in his face.


    Once he was so young and there was only contempt in his hawk-like stern eyes and now his forehead


    was full of wrinkles, his cheeks were saggy, and his eyes were dim. The past arrogance was nowhere


    to be found in his body. There were only the endless vicissitudes.


    Joyce couldn''t help but be amazed at what had happened to Garrett. It made him look so much older.


    "Sit down please." Garrett spoke slowly, his voice with a hint of huskiness, "I was the one who


    proposed to see you, Justin never agreed at first, but then he finally gave up and agreed."


    "I''m sorry, Mr. Henderson. I was the one who never wanted toe before and waste your precious


    time." Joyce said politely.


    "I''m already happy that you''re willing toe. I know that more than two years ago, I caused you


    harm. I would like to solemnly apologize to you." Garrett waved his hand, followed by a few coughs in


    quick session.


    "It''s okay, I''ve forgotten about it. Mr. Henderson, you seem to be in poor health, are you alright?" Joyce


    didn''t expect that Garrett would start the conversation with such a topic, and she couldn''t help but feel a


    little embarrassed.


    Two years ago, the first thing Garrett said to her was to ask her to stay away from Justin.


    "As you can see, I''m sick." Garrett coughed again and took out a napkin to gently wipe the corner of his


    lips, "I have small cell lung cancer."


    "What!" Joyce whimpered, "How did that happen?"


    Garrett held out a finger against his lips to stop her, "Don''t say anything. Justin doesn''t know yet, he


    thinks I just have fibrosis in my lungs. It hasn''t been long since I was diagnosed, and I haven''t told


    anyone."


    She had heard of small cell lung cancer, and Stephanie also had lung cancer, so she knew something


    about lung cancer when she was taking care of Stephanie. It could be said that small cell lung cancer


    was the king of lung cancers, with the lowest survival rate, and even after surgery, it was prone to


    recurrence and almost hopeless.


    N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    She never imagined that a financial tycoon like Garrett would have such a vicious disease. God must


    be kidding him.


    "There''s not much time left for me." Garrett spoke slowly, "As I''m sure you are aware, some time ago,


    the Henderson family underwent a major change of its structure. It was my eldest son, Derrick, who set


    you up over two years ago, so you were not being able topete in the finals of the World Shooting


    Championships and Justin also broke both of his legs. And I was kept in the dark about it. I didn''t even


    know Justin broke his legs. I thought that he had run off with you and hadn''t been heard from. Garrett


    did a great job of keeping me in the dark."
