Nathan and the Twelve-Year Gamble Chapter 17

The days went on as if nothing had happened. Ava went to Hong Kong. Sometimes I would become dazed and feel that such a person had never appeared in my life. Perhaps everything was just my fantasy.

Before the European Cup quarter-finals began, Fatty's mother was hospitalized. After many examinations, she was finally diagnosed with advanced pancreatic cancer. The diagnosis was like a bolt from the blue, and the Fatty couldn't even straighten his back. He lost a lot of weight in two days.

Fatty's parents divorced when he was 10 years old, and the mother and son depended on each other for more than ten years. Although he moved out on his own a year ago, he has always been a filial child.
