“I know!”Blair did not understand why she suddenly brought this up.“Then, did you know that Mable was injured before, and her body isn’t suitable for another pregnancy? However, in order to protect your child, she begged Rory to use medication on her. It was like fighting poison with poison, with only a one-in-ten chance of survival. Although it saved the child, it had serious side effects. At best, it would shorten her life by ten years, and at worst, she might not live more than ten years.”Bam!Blair stood still, feeling as if a thunderbolt had struck his head, causing his whole body to tremble.At best, it would shorten her life by ten years, and at worst, she might not live more than ten years.It turned out she cared about their child that much.Blair instantly realized she had been speaking in a fit of anger when she threatened to take the child’s life.Yes, she had always been like that. When she got angry, she would say anything to make him suffer.However, this tim
Kyle had not seen him since coming back yesterday.Amos said, “Master Blair told him to check on some stuff.”Kyle nodded and thought about what Zoe said about someone sending Blair a message when Mable was kidnapped. He could not help but feel that something was off.With Blair’s feelings for Mable, he would not have ignored such an important message.It seemed there were many doubts in this matter that needed to be thoroughly investigated.Kyle soon left the hospital.Amos stood outside the office, contemplating several times if he should enter and check Blair’s condition. However, he did not dare to.He had to admit that Zoe’s words were incredibly impactful.If they were true, Blair may never forgive himself for the rest of his life.Amos waited outside the office until evening. In the end, he could not help his concern and decided to enter to check on Blair.Just as he was about to push open the door, his phone rang.Amos glanced at it and saw it was from Spike’s attend
Tracey’s words undoubtedly gave Mable hope again.A matching hematopoietic stem cell donor had been found. The donor only needed to receive shots containing mobilizing agents for four consecutive days, and the transplant could take place on the fifth day.That meant Spike could undergo the surgery within a week. If the operation went smoothly and he recovered well, he would heal quickly.At that time, she would take Spike and leave Richworth forever.She would never have any contact with Blair again!That was what Mable thought. However, when the doctor told her the identity of the HSC donor the next day, all her previous thoughts instantly crumbled.“What? Are you serious? The person who matches Spike’s HSC is Blair Fowler?”Rahman took the examination report from Mable’s hands and stared at it with wide eyes. “I don’t believe it. It must be his doing!”Spike’s attending doctor looked at Rahman solemnly. “Sir, I can assure you that this report is one hundred percent accurate.
Blair opened his mouth, but his voice was cold and emotionless. “Why should I save your son?”Mable’s back stiffened, and her hands by her side clenched into fists.“Blair...”“Marry me, Mable.”Blair interrupted her as soon as she spoke.Mable was stunned and looked up at him, thinking she had misheard. “What did you say?”Blair crossed his legs, his hands calmly folded on his knees, and said in a calm voice, “Marry me, and your son will be my son. As his legal father, I’ll donate HSCs to save him.”Mable instinctively shook her head and took a step back.“No. I’m willing to agree to anything besides that.”Blair stared at her, his eyes dark as night. “This is my only condition.”He had no other conditions or requests other than this.“Why do you want to marry me, Blair? Why won’t you just let me go?”Would he be happy marrying someone he did not love?Blair clenched his jaw and remained silent.She loved him, but she wanted him to let her go.Was it because she no long
Blair kept his word. After obtaining the license, he and Mable went to the hospital.It was necessary to undergo a comprehensive physical examination before donating hematopoietic stem cells.Within an afternoon, Blair finished all the medical checks and was admitted to the hospital.For the next four days, he would need to receive mobilizing agents twice a day until the fifth day, when they would transplant the HSCs.Mable stood in the corridor, staring at Blair inside the ward as his blood sample was collected. Her gaze was complex.After a while, she looked down at the ring on her finger, feeling like everything that happened today was like a dream.Blair expected her to accept his condition and even had the ring prepared.In less than half a day, she became Mrs. Fowler.Mable laughed bitterly and leaned against the cold wall, feeling just as cold inside.When the doctor came out of the ward and saw Mable standing there with an unhappy face, he thought she was worried about
Mable laughed. “He was never a gentleman, so there’s nothing surprising about him taking advantage of the situation.”“How can you still laugh about this?”Rahman looked at Mable in frustration. He glanced at the ring on her finger and grew angrier. “You actually agreed?”Mable nodded. “Yes.”After a pause, she added, “We also went to the city hall to get our license before returning to the hospital.”Rahman nearly spat out blood. He pounded his chest and looked at Mable. “What?! You’ve already gotten your license?!“Mable, are you out of your mind? You know Blair doesn’t like you, and he’s our enemy. Aren’t you the sheep walking into the lion’s den by marrying him?”“I had no choice, Rahman.”Rahman clenched his fists. He knew that right now, Blair was needed to save her son.If it were him, he might also have agreed to Blair’s conditions without hesitation.However...He still felt furious.‘That bastard. He brought so much misery to Mable yet still has the nerve to ask h
Blair returned to his ward, followed closely by Solomon.After closing the door, Solomon said, “Blair, you would never have expected this. Anthony was also in Santaviz six years ago when you were in danger. He had already known Aust at that time. I also found out that Anthony had smuggled half of the weapons Aust used to launch riots in Santaviz.”Blair frowned. His face was stern. “It looks like I underestimated him.”It meant Anthony was also involved in the plot against Blair in Santaviz six years ago.“What’s the relationship between Anthony and Black C?” Blair asked.Black C was the largest arms-smuggling organization in Monafett. Although Blair had not dealt with Black C in recent years, he heard about their affairs.Solomon said, “Anthony is the boss of Black C. He and Aust have maintained a close working relationship over the years.”Amos was stunned to hear this. “Anthony is the boss of Black C?!”Blair had suspected it before, but Black C hid it so well that they neve
Blair nodded, looking emotionless....Luke was detained in the detention center because Ralph’s murder case was not open for investigation yet.When the police brought Luke to the visitation room, Luke saw that Anthony was alone and immediately asked, “Where is the lawyer? Why isn’t the lawyer here?”Luke had been arrested for such a long time but had not gotten a lawyer to represent him. It was also the first time Anthony came to visit him.Anthony looked at his father. In just ten days, Luke had become thinner and more haggard. He looked like he had aged ten years.Anthony smiled and said, “Dad, there is conclusive evidence that you killed Ralph. Even if you hire a defense lawyer, you can’t be exonerated. So, why bother?”“You!” Luke widened his eyes and could not believe what his son had said.Anthony wanted to watch him die.Anthony leaned on the chair and crossed his legs, looking relaxed. “Besides, Blair won’t let you get away with your crimes. I just found out that he
