Chapter 468 He Has Cancer
One day, Isabe stayed at school in the afternoon because she needed to attend a meeting.
“Here, someone is calling you,” her friend said as she tapped her on the shoulder.
Isabe froze when she saw the caller ID appear on the screen. Then, she quickly picked up the
phone. “Got it, I’l be right there,” she said seriously after a while.
She instantly dialed another number after hanging up the phone. She then gathered her belongings on
her seat with her other hand and walked out of the conference room.
Isabe was about to walk out the door when she ran into Jasmine, the vice president of Debate Team.
Jasmine was dressed in a navy blue suit, and her heels ttered on the floor. She reached out to grab
Isabe’s hand, Isabe frowned as she smelled Jasmine’s strong perfume.
“Isabe, the meeting is about to begin. Where are you going?” Jasmine’s attitude was hostile, and she
even looked at Isabe hostilely.
Isabe ignored her and brushed her hand away. And Jasmine stopped her again and moved to the
side as if she didn’t want her to leave.
“I have something to do, and I need to get going. I’llsend Sean a messageter to let him know about
it,” Isabe said it politely.
But Jasmine was still furious after hearing her words. She believed Isabe was deliberately provoking
her. “Are you going to text him? Do you ‘467 He Has Cancer know him well? He’s two grades your
senior, shouldn’t you keep your distance from him?”
“You can ask him about that,” Isabe said calmly, “And by the way, tell him that | left.” She then walked
away and deliberately bumped Jasmine, who was in her way. Jasmine then stumbled and mmed
into the wooden door.
“Isabe!” Jasmine yelled, frustrated. Isabe had already left in a hurry at that moment.
Before pulling her phone from her pocket. Jasmine paused for a moment and texted Sean, “I broke my
ankle, can you take me to the clinic? By the way. I’d like to discuss the debatepetition with you.”
Jasmine was no longer enraged after sending the message. She smiled as she entered the conference
room and told everyone, “Since someone is absent today, our meeting will be canceled. You guys can
leave now.”
Everyone appeared furious after that.
“Why didn’t you say so earlier? I’ve been waiting here for an hour! | even canceled a date,” someone
pped the table angrily and said.
Jasmine had stepped out of the conference room by then. “You’re a freshman, right?” she asked
condescendingly.
The girl froze and nodded.
“Feel free to leave for your own personal business, and have a bunch of people waste their time
because of you. Provided, of course, that you have the ability to bewitch people like she does.”
After finishing her words, Jasmine walked away, her high heels making an annoying sound on the
wooden floor.
The girl was humiliated and unsure what she should do next. “Hey, ‘467 He Has Cancer What does she
mean by that?” she asked, tugging on her friend’s sleeve.
“Don’t you understand? She wasn’t just ming you; she was also scolding Isabe,” her roommate
said sympathetically.
“No, | still don’t get it,” the girl continued.
“| heard Sean invited Isabe here, and she was the only freshman he brought in. | get the impression
the two of them like each other. Otherwise,
Jasmine wouldn’t hate her so much.”
“Isn’t Isabe a freshman? She only arrived a few months ago!”
“I only know that Sean was in charge of weing new students on the first day of school, and thest
new student he received was Isabe, and the student union even took a picture of the two of them at
the time, and that photo is still on our school’s official IG, with thousands ofmentsplimenting
them. They are a good match.”
“Come on, let’s go get some fast food,” they said as they walked away.
Isabe arrived at the hospitalter. She pretended to be calm, but she was still thinking about what
had just happened.
“Are you Mike’s family?” A police officer at the door asked her.
“Yes, I’m his niece.”
“Mike’s condition isn’t good right now. He has terminal stomach cancer and has been in the hospital for
quite some time. He didn’t let us tell his family about it before. We’re telling you right now because…”
The man paused and shifted the topic, “Well, go in and see him. He seems to
have something to say to you.”
Ina daze, Isabe walked to the corridor where the windows were ‘467 He Has Cancer open, and a
cold breeze blew in. Anna tapped Isabe on the shoulder to bring her back to her senses. “Go see
him, dear. I’ll wait for you here,” Anna said.
Isabe nodded and tried not to cry.
That hospital was shabby, and the ward smelled slightly musty. Isabe stood in the doorway, her gaze
fixed on the man in the bed. He was breathing heavily with his mouth open, his unfocused gaze fixed
on the lights on the ceiling.
The people on the ind used to call him “Fat Mike” because he was indeed overweight. However, at
the moment, he was much thinner than before, with thin cheeks, dry and cracked lips, and dull eyes.
Isabe couldn’t hold back her tears after seeing Mike and sobbed in the doorway, her hands covering
her face.
When Mike heard the sound, he moved his body, turned his head toward Isabe at the ward’s door,
and asked, “You’re here, huh?”
Even though he was weak, he still smiled at her. And Isabe noticed that his voice was no longer as
loud as it once was. “I’m here,” she said, biting her lip and then rxing slightly.
Mike was her uncle no matter what, and she used to think they could go their entire lives without seeing
each other. But she was very heartbreaking at the time because he was thest family member she
had in the world.
“Come here, Tracy,” he waved and gestured to the chair beside his bed, looking tired after doing so.
Isabe sat beside him and noticed that his eyes had lost their radiance once more.
“| had a dream about your mother, Tracy. For the past few days, I’ve been seeing her in my dreams. In
my dreams, she med me for bringing her to that hellhole. She said that she had already made one
mistake in her ‘467 He Has Cancer life and did not intend to make another. If| saw her in heaven, she
wouldn’t even talk to me,” Mike thenughed to himself,
Isabe didn’t quite understand what he meant because her mother died when she was very young.
Mike rarely told her anything about her, so Isabe had little memory of her mother. Then she uttered,
trying tofort Mike, “It wasn’t entirely your fault.”
“No, | did many wrong things. | locked her in her room and told her she couldn’t see that man. | even
took her to the hospital.” Mike coughed violently and felt pain in his organs throughout his body, forcing
him to close his eyes tightly.

“Okay, you need to stop talking. You need some rest,” Isabe said. She was at a loss for words and
poured him half a ss of water from a kettle.
Mike’s stomach hurt, so he didn’t take the ss, and the water spilled onto the floor.
“| also took her to the hospital and told her she needed to have an abortion. She begged me so hard
and even cried her eyes out in the operating room. | was devastated, so | agreed to let her keep the
baby. You Were over six months old at the time,” Mike continued.
Isabe was wiping water with tissue at the time, then froze, thinking for a moment before asking
calmly, “Why?”
“Because she was still in college. She was the only college student in our family back then, and | didn’t
want her to ruin her future because of a child. However, |ter learned that | was wrong. You’re a
wonderful child, and everyone adores you.”
Isabe sat straight up in her chair, disappointed. It was the first time she had heard anyone talk about
her parents, but there was clearly one person missing from her life. And it was her biological father.
