    Chapter 1667


    He now looked like he was gasping for hisst breath.


    Byran, scared out of his wits, quickly pushed his elder brother away. “Bro! Now is not the time to


    confront Dad. We need to save him first!”


    Balfour snorted. “He won’t die! He needs to live to face the mess he’s created!”


    As soon as Balfour finished his outburst, the sound of ambnce sirens echoed from the outside.


    Hospital.


    When McNeil woke up again, he was greeted by the sterile white walls of the hospital and the smell of


    disinfectant.


    “Dad! You’re finally awake!” Byran’s face came into view. Worry was etched all over his face.


    McNeil paused, realizing that he had not been able to escape after all. Bitterness began welling up in


    his eyes.


    Byran sat beside the bed. “Dad, you can’t do such foolish things again. What’s bothering you so much?


    Grandpa and Grandma still don’t know you’re in the hospital. They’d be terrified if they found out!”


    McNeil remained silent. He closed his eyes, not wanting to face the world.


    Byran added, “Dad, the doctor said when you wake up, you should take these pills. They’re for pain.


    Here, let me help you sit up and take them, then you cany back down.”


    McNeil remained still, not epting his youngest son’s help and refusing to take the medication.


    Byran was a little frustrated. “Dad! You have to take them!”


    McNeil remained unresponsive.


    Byran was at his wit’s end.


    “Leave him alone. If he doesn’t want to take his medicine, let him suffer!” Balfour’s voice echoed


    through the room.


    He had been there all along, sitting on a couch in the corner, engrossed in his phone.


    After hearing his eldest son’s voice, McNeil abruptly opened his eyes, turned his head towards Balfour,


    and rasped in a hoarse voice.


    “Balfour, you said when we were home that I deserved to live in pain for the suffering I caused them…


    Do you mean… they’re still alive?”


    Balfour remained coldly indifferent, still engrossed in his phone. “Whether they’re alive or not is none of


    your business.”


    He found a glimmer of hope in his statement. McNeil strained to sit up. “Balfour, I know you’ve always


    hated me, but no matter how much you hate me… Can I see them, please?” Upon seeing his father


    struggle, Byran rushed to help him sit up.


    “Bro, stop tormenting Dad! He’s already like this.”.


    Byran was heartbroken. He had never seen his father in such a state and didn’t want to keep things


    from him any longer. “Dad, I know where your daughter is. I can bring her to the hospital to see you.”


    McNeil looked at Byran in amazement. “Really?”


    Byran nodded fervently. “Yes! Dad, if you cooperate with the treatment and take your medicine, I’ll call


    her in the morning and ask her toe see you.”


    Aspark fit up in McNeil’s eyes. He sat up properly and reached out to take the medicine.


    Due to his weakness, McNeil struggled with the action. After Byran helped him take the medicine, he


    also helped his father lie down, advising him to rest.


    For the chance to see his daughter, McNeil cooperated fully, nodding his head and closing his eyes to


    rest.


    After seeing this, Byran felt a terrible ache in his heart. He turned and walked over to sit next to Balfour


    and whispered, “Bro, if Dad/continues like this, Grandpa and Grandma will find out sooner orter. If


    they’re scared into an ident, our family will be ruined. If our sister coulde see pad, he would


    definitely cooperate with the treatment. He’d get better faster and won’t attempt suicide again.”N?velDrama.Org owns all content.
