All Chapters of What Cannot Be Consoled: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

On the way there, the team leader had already told Ethan that these months were Arcanum's rainy season, when natural disasters occurred frequently. He had tried to persuade Ethan to come at a different time, but Ethan had refused.Now, after learning Pearl's whereabouts, how could he bear to wait even one more second?He had been too obtuse before. When Pearl had shown him her passionate love, he had turned a blind eye, which was how he had broken her heart so thoroughly.That was why Pearl had kept even something as major as her pregnancy and miscarriage hidden from him!He had already sworn to himself that once he found Pearl, he would repay her a thousand times over. Yet, reality was so cruel to him. The moment he arrived, he heard news of Pearl being in danger.When Ethan reached the collapsed section of road, night had already fallen. Among the broken walls and rubble, rescue workers wearing headlamps shuttled back and forth anxiously.Ethan could not understand the local la

Pearl's cold gaze shattered Ethan's heart into pieces. Yet, he still followed her into the tent.Outside, rescue personnel were still desperately calling for help. "Where's the surgeon?"Hearing the voice, Pearl, who had been placed down on a blanket, struggled to get up again. "I've recovered. I can go to the operating table now!"Sean forcibly pressed her back down. "Have you forgotten? I'm also a surgeon. You rest. Let me go!"Sean's face looked youthful, yet his voice inexplicably reassured Pearl. Recalling that he used to be famous in their department years ago as a medical prodigy, Pearl felt at ease."I'll leave it to you for now. Once I've recovered, I'll come assist you."After speaking, the two exchanged a knowing look and high-fived in the air.Behind them, Ethan watched this scene with clenched fists. Right now, he was only nominally her ex-husband. He did not even have the right to be jealous."Hey, ex-husband! I'm going to save lives. You feed Pearl something."B

"Pearl!"After returning to the base, Pearl fed Ethan fever-reducing medicine, and his condition gradually improved.When Pearl was still setting up his IV drip, he weakly opened his eyes and grasped her wrist.Pearl was helpless. She really wanted someone else to take care of him, but he refused to take medicine from anyone else.Taylor could only ask her to make a small sacrifice for the sake of the ten-million-dollar donation.Pearl gritted her teeth and pried Ethan's fingers open. Fortunately, he was very weak now and no match for her. Pearl wrapped him tightly in the bedsheet so that he could not move.Ethan immediately protested by turning his head away and refusing the medicine."The great Mr. Sterling is going to act like a child?" Pearl was at her wit's end and simply tossed the medicine aside. "Take it or leave it!"He was on an IV drip now anyway. He would not die.Unexpectedly, once she stopped trying to feed him, he became anxious.After confirming that she reall

Half a month later, Pearl learned that Ethan had returned home.During those days, a village near the base had a sudden outbreak of dengue fever. Most of the team was dispatched there and worked tirelessly until they finally controlled the spread of the disease.When she returned to the base for a meeting, she heard from Taylor that Ethan had gone back home the day after the thank-you banquet.Pearl breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed Ethan had come to his senses. His desperate pursuit of her had been nothing more than temporary guilt at work.Since their medical team had controlled the dengue fever effectively and quickly, domestic media traveled all the way there to write reports about them.Pearl was interviewed as the new representative of the medical team.Her performance in the interview was professional and composed. Combined with those expressive eyes beneath her neat short hair, clips of her interview immediately went viral on social media back home.[Dr. Whitmore is b

"Ethan!"Vivian grabbed Ethan. "Are you really going to take out your anger over Pearl's matter on me and the baby?"Tears spilled from Vivian's eyes, but for the first time, Ethan did not compromise because of her tears.He decisively pulled his wrist from her grasp and said with a stern expression, "No. But if you continue to disregard the boundaries between us again and again, then I might actually take my anger out on you."I'll pay for this meal. If you truly find it inconvenient to go to prenatal checkups alone, I can help you contact a reliable medical escort service here in the capital."After saying that, Ethan walked away without looking back.In the past, it was precisely because he could not figure out his own heart that he had made irreversible mistakes. Ethan did not want to repeat those errors.Four years ago, when he got blackout drunk over Vivian's marriage, he might still have truly loved her.After Vivian got a divorce and returned home, he subconsciously bel
