Alexandria Community.
Airon extended his hand toward Negan, and Negan also smiled and shook his hand in response.
"Airon, nice to meet you."
"Let me tell you briefly that, for security reasons, we need to talk in more depth, so you must accompany me to a special room."
"Understood, we will cooperate with whatever you need."
As the two spoke, Lucille's legs suddenly went slack, luckily she supported with her husband so she didn't fall straight to the floor.
Negan's face changed, he supported his wife with some concerns and sent her to the side of the grass where there were flowers for her to sit on.
"How are you?"
"I'm fine, just a little dizzy, wait, I need space..."
After saying that, Lucille vomited for a while, she felt her body was even weaker. Leaning back against Negan's body, she said with a little shortness of breath, "It doesn't look like it's going to work, you have to be mentally prepared."
"No, it'll be fine. When you calm down, I'll help you find a better doctor."
"It's okay, I'm already glad to spend more time with you."
Just as the two of them were comforting each other, a voice suddenly appeared at their side and asked, "Were you able to check her out?"
It turned out that it was Edward who approached the two of them, looked at Lucille's expression carefully and, seeing this person's appearance, the two of them felt a little confused.
Fortunately, Airon not far away explained to the two of them, "Edward is a good doctor, he has certain specialties that make him a very valuable subject, I saved him a few months ago and now he works in this place as a doctor."
Lucille's expression became somewhat expectant, but she seemed to have thought of something, and immediately calmed down again, with a bitter smile hanging at the corner of her mouth.
"Thank you, but my illness is very serious and the hope of curing me is extremely low even before the end of the world, let alone now."
Putting his arms around his wife, Negan disagreed and said, "Don't say such depressing words, you can't lose any hope."
"Edward, please help her if you can. We were able to give her a full round of chemotherapy earlier and her health had been improving a bit. I don't know why, but recently she started having problems again."
"Don't worry, come on."
Smiling, he indicated to the two not to worry, Edward pulled out a Stethoscope and began checking Lucille.
Most of the situations he encountered before he was able to solve and due to the lack of medicine he was able to find solutions based on some things he was able to find before arriving in Alexandria.
In the current situation, he had medicine and the best medical tools are more than enough to cure any kind of disease or just treat it.
Although they did not know what the other party was doing, the husband and wife did not speak and just waited in silence.
Doctor Franklin, who was standing not far away, looked with surprise at the man who was checking on Lucille. He knew about Negan's wife's situation, and he knew very well the procedure to save her. Though now without medication or tools, he could not determine what was happening to her.
With instructions to breathe and look at every abnormal detail of Lucille, Edward was able to receive a lot of information.
"Take a deep breath and hold your breath as long as you can..."
"How's it going?"
Negan showed some enthusiasm, which made everyone around him sympathize with him, but Edward's expression relaxed a bit and he spoke slowly.
"Let me talk briefly about the situation. Since you have cancer... Considering that you underwent a series of chemotherapies, your body began to accept the treatment but it is also true that this has severely damaged your body, coupled with long-term malnutrition, resulting in a very unstable physical condition. The most important point is that I believe you are pregnant. This has a lot to do with your recent deteriorating condition."
"What!"
"I'm pregnant?"
Nodding to confirm the doubts of the two, Doctor Franklin also hit his head in a daze.
"That's right, why didn't I think of that? Well, I couldn't imagine something like that happening with that condition. Although the probability was very low, it's very possible."
But Edward hadn't stopped his explanation and said, "As for the disease, it should be under control, but your body is too weak at the moment. I will keep you under observation during these days. Don't worry."
In fact, her condition is more complicated. As for the pregnancy, she also has some doubts, but now is not the time to talk about these things. Airon said nothing and allowed this to happen, the purpose of his action is to make Lucille feel a little calmer, and not to have too much psychological pressure. It is not too late to talk to Negan, he believes that the other party can understand his intentions.
Although he really does not know to what extent Edward's skills are good, these words really made the husband and wife breathe a sigh of relief.
But the people behind Franklin were a bit dumbfounded. They also heard that it was cancer, so they added the medicine according to the cancer treatment method after further observation. This is also the main reason why Lucille can persist until now.
At first they were very happy. After all, doctors before the end of the world still needed to use various mechanical equipment to help in the treatment and they were all in this place. To be able to control Lucille's disease without auxiliary equipment, in their opinion, would already be an unattainable miracle.
"We have plenty of drugs and medical equipment, we can treat the disease and for now that's the most important thing." Edwars looked at Bob next to him and then said, "We need to prepare the necessary medications, with rehydrating fluids and letting her rest is enough."
"I understand."
Airon then that clapped his hands and said, "Alright, listen up, let Mr. Negan send his wife to his RV and follow me first."
Next, Franklin and his group first accepted Airon's questioning and learned in detail about the situation of these people.
Not long after, Negan arrived in the meeting room, with an excited expression on his face, he stepped forward and took Airon's hand.
Looking at the great villain in the original drama in front of him, Airon couldn't help but remember.
Negan's background in the original drama is really pitiful. Of course, there are reasons why his backstory was not fully known at first. Negan is a high school physical education teacher and has a beautiful wife, but he can't escape the guilt because he was unfaithful to her.
Coincidentally, Lucille found out about this, and was very angry, she knew she was still in love with Negan, and at the same time, she also found out something else more terrible, that she had cancer.
After much struggle and pain, she finally decided to forgive her husband. She only confessed to her husband that she had cancer. As for the other party's infidelity, she did not mention a word. Lucille decided to put her last hope in her husband's hands, and it turns out that she was right.
After hearing the news, Negan was determined to change his past and immediately focused on taking care of his wife, but soon the end of the world.
Negan could not bear to see his wife like this, so he had to teach himself the whole method and process of chemotherapy, then prepared a generator and began to treat himself at home.
The side effects of chemotherapy followed. Lucille, who was originally beautiful, lost all her blonde hair. To make her look beautiful every day, Negan collected all kinds of wigs outside.
The relationship between the two also became much more unique quickly during this time alone, and they even found the feeling they had when they first fell in love. Lucille also gradually changed from initial despair to more and more reluctance, and began to actively cooperate with each other, seeing her husband doing everything he could for her to survive.
However, with only three treatments left, an accident occurred. The drugs used for chemotherapy had to be stored at low temperature, causing all doses of drugs to fail.
Desperate, he had no choice but to go out to look for medicines, fortunately a previous experience let him know that there is a group of doctors, who have been helping nearby patients. He was desperate and plans to try his luck.
The wife, who was originally very cooperative, was strongly opposed. She vaguely felt that if she let her husband go, it would be a farewell. Whether she agreed or not, he did not want to lose his last hope.
The search process went smoothly. He successfully found the group of doctors and got free medicine and a baseball bat from the doctors, but he encountered a group of thugs on the way back.
They were interested in the medicine in Negan's hand and pressured him to give the location of the group of doctors. In the end, he couldn't stand the interrogation and betrayed the doctor in exchange for his freedom because he was anxious about his wife.
However, when he entered the house and saw his wife who had committed suicide in bed and turned into a walker, he collapsed. After burying his wife, in memory of her, Negan wrapped a steel mesh around a baseball bat. The weapon is called: Lucille.
Carrying the bat, he returned to the gang's camp from earlier, killed them all, and then smashed the leader's head with Lucille!
From then on, the leader of the Saviors was known as Negan!
The original plot was like that, but now Airon looked at the other side with some expectation, he wanted to know what the current Negan had gone through.
After some gratitude, Negan's emotions gradually calmed down. Looking back now, he seemed to be able to control Lucille's illness.
"We'll do everything we can to keep your wife safe, if we can't save her here no one in the world can. But tell me, we need to have a brief talk. Tell me about your experience, what have you been doing since the end of the world began?
A reminiscent expression appeared on Negan's face, and the intricacies of the matter gradually became clearer as he narrated.
