Phoenix Rising: From Heartache to Heroism novel Chapter 671

Winona's heart raced as she steadied her thoughts. "Okay, I'll go back and tell her to come in for another X-ray."

After speaking, she stood up to leave.

As she reached the door, a thought suddenly struck her. She turned back to the doctor and said, "You do know that Evelina is a public figure, right? I hope you can keep this matter confidential."

The doctor replied, "Don't worry. It's illegal for medical staff to disclose a patient's condition without consent."

"That's a relief."

Winona hurriedly took the X-ray and rushed over to Liberty Grove.

Meanwhile, Evelina had recently splurged on several luxury items and was at home applying a delicate makeup look, preparing to take a beautiful selfie to post on Twitter.

Winona rushed into her home, entering the code without pausing to change her shoes.

She called out urgently, "Evelina! Evie!"

Evelina was in her room taking photos when she heard Winona's frantic voice outside. Rolling her eyes, she put down her phone and walked to the bedroom door. "Why are you shouting? I'm in my room."

Winona rushed up to her, grabbing her hand with a worried look. "I received the results from the X-ray you took yesterday, and there's bad news."

"What news?"

"The doctor told me they suspect you might have a tumor in your stomach!"

"What?!"

Evelina's pupils trembled, and her face turned pale in an instant.

Winona squeezed her hand reassuringly. "But don't worry. The doctor only mentioned it as a possibility, you just need to go back to the hospital for another X-ray."

Jenny was in another room, attempting to sleep when Winona's loud voice startled her awake. Yawning, she stepped out just in time to hear Winona say that Evelina had a tumor.

Taken aback, she exclaimed, "What?! Winona, are you saying Evie has a tumor?!"

Both Jenny and her sister were like leeches, clinging to Evelina for support.

The news that their host was going to die was nearly as frightening for them as it was for Evelina herself.

Evelina was overwhelmed by dizziness and fainted from the shock of the news.

"Evie, Evie!"

When she finally regained consciousness, she discovered she was in a hospital bed.

After all, she was also Evelina's cousin, and has been through so much together over the years, she felt the weight of the situation deeply.

Before long, Jenny returned to the hospital room, carrying some items and shutting the door behind her to block Evelina's view.

"Evie, I brought you some cornmeal porridge."

...

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Violeta had just wrapped up a day of promotions.

Exhausted, she got into her car for the ride back to the hotel.

Aster handed Violeta a thermos, and she tried it, savoring the sweet, nutty flavor. Peering inside, she saw the cornmeal porridge.

"Hehe, I made it in my thermal cooker, and it turned out pretty well!"

"Not bad. It's delicious," Violeta replied, taking a hearty sip.

Aster continued, "The movie is about to be released. I can't wait! I wonder how much box office it will bring in."

Violeta responded, "We can only do our best and leave the rest to fate. By the way, how long is Evelina's leave? Has she returned to work yet?"
