Mommy Alert! The CEO Daddy Won't Stop Courting-Chapter 650: A Hidden Secret of Whitehill...
As Melody Parker spoke, her cold gaze swept over the other physicians, "What are physicians like you for?"
The voice of Melody Parker, not loud yet full of deterrence, echoed in Muir’s palace, followed by a series of thuds as people kneeled to the ground.
All the physicians knelt before Melody Parker, lowered their heads, and spoke with trepidation, "Princess, calm your anger, we will definitely do our utmost..."
Melody Parker’s icy eyes glanced over these people, then coldly interrupted them, "Stop with the useless nonsense. Now tell me, at your utmost capacity, how much longer can my father live?"
The physicians glanced at each other, conferred together, and eventually, the elder among them replied to Melody Parker, "Princess, even at our utmost, we can only guarantee the King’s life for at most a month."
"A month?" Melody Parker repeated, looking at the physicians instructively, "For this month, I’d trouble you to spare no effort to preserve my father’s life!"
All the physicians responded in unison, "Yes, Princess."
After giving instructions to the physicians, Melody Parker looked towards Ralph Carter, "Is there any news of Tannis? Can he be contacted?"
Ralph Carter shook his head, "No one knows where Tannis has gone."
Melody Parker nodded, continuing to instruct Ralph Carter, "Search globally for a heart specialist, and report to me immediately once found. I will contact them."
...
With the physicians’ best efforts, Muir’s life was temporarily preserved, but due to his frail condition, he fell into a coma.
That very night on receiving Melody Parker’s instructions, Ralph Carter found a world-class heart specialist and gave his contact details to Melody Parker.
Melody Parker immediately contacted this world-renowned heart expert, Eureka, who held citizenship of S Country, inviting him to treat Muir.
After reaching a consensus with Eureka, Melody Parker promptly arranged for Ralph Carter to head to S Country and bring Eureka over to Whitehill to treat King Muir.
On the afternoon of the next day, Eureka entered the Whitehill Royal Palace.
After examining Muir, Eureka looked at Melody Parker, apologetically saying, "Sorry, the King can only live for a maximum of six months."
Eureka, being a world-class heart specialist, saying Muir could live for six months was something hard for ordinary doctors to achieve.
The royal physicians within Whitehill Palace could only manage to keep Muir alive for about a month.
Melody Parker looked at the younger man before her, who was cool with slightly delicate features, asking, "Six months? If we find a suitable heart within these six months, could it then..."
Eureka shook his head, "The King’s body has reached its limit, meaning aside from his heart, the King’s other organs are all failing at various degrees. Even if a suitable heart is found, it cannot prolong the King’s life significantly. Moreover, given the King’s physical condition, a heart surgery may actually accelerate his demise."
Melody Parker’s face turned pale, unable to accept such a cruel reality.
She had only just reunited with her biological father half a year ago, and now she was being told her father would only live at most for another six months!
She hadn’t had the chance to fulfill her filial duties, nor even accompany her father, and yet his life was already counting down...
Though difficult to accept, she had no choice but to face it.
Since keeping her father wasn’t an option, she resolved to accompany him well over these six months, making him as happy and fulfilled as possible.
Melody Parker stayed by Muir’s side, attentively caring for him.
Not long after Eureka took over Muir’s care, Muir emerged from his coma.
This ’not long’, in fact, was the second night after Muir had fallen into a coma.
At that moment, Melody Parker was sitting by Muir’s bedside, keeping watch over him.
However, due to the accumulated fatigue and Muir awakening during the sleepiest part of the night, Melody Parker inevitably fell asleep by the bedside.
Upon awakening, Muir saw Melody Parker asleep at his bedside, watching over him.
Witnessing this scene, Muir’s aged eyes immediately filled with tears.
He had thought he never would...
Muir stretched his hand, gently touching Melody Parker’s hair.
Melody Parker was a light sleeper.
Feeling Muir’s touch, she immediately opened her eyes.
Seeing Muir awake and watching her with teary eyes from his bed, tear drops welled up in Melody Parker’s eyes, "Daddy, you’re awake?"
"Yes, Daddy is awake." Muir smiled, his gaze gentle and kind as he looked at Melody Parker, "Child, you’ve worked so hard."
Melody Parker, tears sparkling on her face, smiled and shook her head, "It wasn’t hard at all, Daddy, it really wasn’t."
"Good child." Muir extended his hand, holding Melody Parker’s hand as he slowly spoke, "Melody, last time I didn’t finish my words... luckily, heaven had mercy and spared my life."
Melody Parker watched Muir with tear-shimmering eyes, "Daddy..."
Certain things Muir had to tell Melody Parker, particularly now, given the uncertainty if he might breathe his last the next second, unable to open his eyes again.
Muir looked at Melody Parker, slowly starting to speak, "Melody, there’s another secret, a matter of Whitehill’s secret, which I must tell you..."
And so, Muir began to tell Melody Parker a very long story about Whitehill’s treasure...
It turned out Whitehill’s treasure was a mystery, an elusive and unresolved mystery. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂
Whitehill was considered mysterious by the outside world.
Within Whitehill, the Butterfly Clan, along with Whitehill’s rulers across generations, were seen by Whitehill’s people as its most mysterious presence.
Yet only the heirs of the Butterfly Clan, the successive Kings of Whitehill, knew that in truth, the Butterfly Clan was not Whitehill’s most mysterious presence.
And this most mysterious presence was closely linked with Whitehill’s treasure.
Legend had it that throughout generations, a sacred maiden would be born within Whitehill, a maiden born parentless, with the mission of protecting Whitehill, guarding its greatest secret—the treasure of Whitehill.
No one knew when the sacred maiden would be born, nor what she looked like, just as no one knew what exactly Whitehill’s treasure was, or how many countless of gold and jewels it contained.
But over twenty years ago, an accident occurred...
Twenty years ago, Whitehill had a Phoenix Peak, which now comprises the northern tribe, the hidden location for the treasure, and the site of Whitehill’s royal tomb.
