Chapter 411 My Child Is My Life (Part One)
Kevin looked at Eddy and sighed. Then he turned his gaze towards Jayson and asked, "What''s the
condition of Bob''s family?"
Jayson sighed and responded, "At first, their family wasn''t doing bad, but after finding out that Bob had
this kind of disease, they''ve been paying for all kinds of medicine in hopes of curing him. Now, their
family is suffering from poverty and is currently having a difficult time."
Both Anne and Kevin were silenced. Once a child got sick, his or her parents wouldn''t be able to just
watch the child die. They had predicted that the situation would be like this already.
Kevin was rich and powerful. Although Eddy was sick, he spared no expense to have his son cured.
For ordinary people, it was an unbearable disaster.

"Moreover, you should be well-prepared. Bob''s parents are almost fifty years old. It was a miracle they
had a kid at such an old age, so they doted on Bob. I''ve also talked to his parents in private. They said
that even if they must sell their blood or kidneys, they''re willing to do anything to have their son
treated," said Jayson with a frown.
His words left Kevin and Anne at a loss for words. Because Bob''s parents were older, they would
naturally cherish their son more. However, this was definitely not good news for Kevin and Anne.
"It''s useless to talk about it right now. Let''s go to the hospital and see the child," Sam suggested as he
looked at them.
No matter what kind of n they prepared, they still couldn''t catch up with all the changes happening. If
that was the case, then they''d better go to the hospital first to meet the child and his parents.
Kevin exchanged nces with Anne and then they nodded at the same time. They had no choice but
to do as Sam suggested.
However, they could imagine that Bob''s parents would verbally abuse them the moment they met.
"Eddy,e with me. Aunt Emily will take you out to y, okay?" With a smile on her face, Anne gazed
at Eddy with a rxed look.
Eddy lowered his gaze and bit his lip. His face was full of grievances as he slowly looked at Emily
before he lowered his head once more.
Anne knew her child well, and she knew that Eddy wanted to go along with them.
But what would unfold in that meeting. Everything was unpredictable. She was scared that Eddy would
be endangered if he apanied them.
"Emily, please look after Eddy." Anne was worried of her child''s safety, so she ignored Eddy''s plea and
put him in Emily''s arms.
Emily nodded in agreement.
Soon, Jayson brought Kevin and the others to the hospital to meet the poor child.
At this time, the child was sitting on the bed and ying with his toys without anyone to apany
him.
"I heard from his parents they''ve exhausted all their savings, and now they can''t afford the astronomical
medical expenses. All they can do now is try to work for the money the best they can. Moreover, their
debts have piled up to the point that they can barely pay it back." Through the window, Jayson looked
at Bob with pity and shook his head.
Anne nced at the skinny child, who was obediently resting on the bed. His eyes were devoid of
happiness and wonder that children his age usually had, and instead, they held a certain dullness and
boredom of everything around him.
"The nurses are quite fond of this child. They often bring him toys whenever they can," Jayson added
as he shook his head helplessly.
"Can I talk to him?" Anne requested as he looked at Jayson.
He nodded at her, and then she entered the room at once. Sam tugged on Kevin''s sleeve and shook
his head.
Bob''s condition was so simr to Eddy''s. After talking to the child, Anne only felt sorrier for him. It was
definitely a terrible idea to get in touch with this poor boy.
Outside, Kevin kept shaking his head in disbelief as he stared at Bob in silence.
Walking to the bedside, Anne looked at Bob. The boy felt someone approaching, so he slowly raised
his head. When he saw that it was Anne, he felt confused. He bit his lower lip and asked in a weak
voice, "Hello, Auntie. Who are you? Why are you looking at me like that? Do you know me?"
Shaking her head, Anne sat on the chair in front of Bob. She stared at the boy''s toys and asked with a
smile, "Do you love ying with these toys?"
As he stared at the beautiful woman before him, Bob shook his head, looked at his toys, and slowly
curled up his body. "No, I don''t like them at all. I y with them every day, but I don''t really like them.
What I want is to go outside and see the white clouds, and maybe a cute little puppy..."
The boy''s words stung Anne''s heart. ording to Jayson, Bob''s condition was even worse than Eddy''s
to the point that he wasn''t allowed to leave the hospital!
As a five-year-old boy, he had been living in this isted hospital for as long as he could remember. He
couldn''t breathe the fresh air or see all the wonderful things in the outside world. He couldn''t even run
or y.
Such a terrible life…
"How about I take you out to have some fun?" Anne suggested with a big smile on her face.
With widened eyes, Bob stared at her with excitement written all over his face. He asked gingerly, "For
real?"
Nodding her head, Anne smiled and answered, "I consulted the doctor, and he said that your condition
is bing better these days. You shouldn''t be lying on the bed all the time. You should go out for a
walk sometimes!"
Sadly, because Bob''s parents were always working, nobody could apany him, so he had to stay
cooped up in his room all the time.
Bob kept nodding his head. Anne helped him carefully put on his clothes. Slowly, she held the boy in
her arms and led him outside.
Jayson frowned as he turned to look at Sam. Sam just shook his head at him. "Don''t worry. We know
Anne. I''m sure she just really wants to take Bob out to y. It has no other meaning."
