But this time, she didn't want to apologize.If she did, it would be akin to admitting that she did push Sandra Cooper on purpose and with malice. Yanny would never be able to keep his head high anymore from now on!Her silence made him feel a little uncomfortable. He knew he should retract his hand and stop touching her.But he couldn't, as if he could not bear to give up touching her slightly cool cheeks, as if he was attached to her body heat.Her cheeks were sunken, and her skin was no longer fair and smooth like it was in the past. Instead, it was the color of wax, probably due to malnutrition.However, her elegant facial features remained unchanged – eyebrows the shape of curved willow leaves, tiny nose, and long, curly eyelashes that stood out because her eyes were closed.At the moment, she looked like a quiet doll. He could not take his eyes off her. He only came back to his senses when they reached the hospital. He quickly retracted his hand as if he had touched somethi
"I didn't do anything wrong. Why should I admit it? You're asking someone who was framed to apologize to the person who framed them. You can't even tell right from wrong!""I don't care, you have to kneel and bow down to her! You better not make me force you!"Clara scoffed. "You're as clueless as ever, Wilson Birch. You believe everything that the Coopers tell you. You really think Sandra Cooper saved your life? She didn't do anything! The blood flowing inside your body right now has nothing to do with her!"The Coopers visibly panicked when they heard that. Sandra, who was leisurely eating on the hospital bed, tensed up, almost spilling the tonic.Did... Clara know something? Did she know about the bone marrow donation?"Wilson... She... What does she mean by that?" Sandra asked, pretending not to understand. Her face was pale and sickly, making her seem weak and fragile.Wilson said, "It's all nonsense. Just ignore her."Mr. Cooper quickly stepped forward and gave Clara a har
He could still remember the day they met like it was yesterday. He was in the hospital for a follow-up inspection when Sandra walked up to him with a smile and said, "I learned by accident that you're the recipient of my bone marrow. I’m glad to hear that you're recovering well."That was how he found out who his bone marrow donor was.When a match was found in the bone marrow registry, the doctor had called to inquire, but the potential donor refused to donate.At the time, Wilson felt like his entire world had gone dark. He still had a lot of unfinished business. He was not ready to die yet.But then, the bone marrow registry found another match. While waiting for an answer, he was extremely nervous every day, afraid that he would get rejected again.To him, living felt like a luxury that depended on someone else's mercy and generosity.He was so scared that he would get rejected again.So, so scared!But the hospital brought him good news. Not only did the potential donor a
It turned out that he would never stop hurting her!Wilson's entire body tensed up. She... hated him!Her voice wasn't that loud, but it thundered in his ears.He sought her out for revenge, so it made sense that she would hate him. He didn't even care if she hated him. Otherwise, he would not have done what he did to her four years ago.However, when he heard the word "hate" come out of her mouth, he felt like there were a million swords slashing at him.Clara's head was pushed down again and again, and her forehead hit the floor again and again, repeatedly making a thumping sound.Clara owed Sandra this, but why did the sound sting his ears so?!She was like a soulless shell, letting herself be humiliated without any resistance.And... he was the one who gave the order!Enough! He wanted to shout that it was enough! He didn't want to see any more of this. This was already enough compensation, for her and for him!Clara was the one being forced to bow down, but he felt like
Seeing that Serenity was about to turn around and leave, he felt a strong urge to rush forward and grab her to ask for an explanation.However, after only taking two steps forward, he was stopped by Jackson's bodyguards. He couldn't get close to Serenity at all."Wait!" he shouted with a trembling voice, "What do you mean? What do you mean she saved my life?!"Serenity's footsteps halted. Her eyes fell on Wilson's pale face.The eyes of the man who was usually cold and solemn were currently filled with fear. He looked as if he was afraid that the answer would make him break down.Serenity glared at him, unable to suppress her anger.She scoffed and said, "What do I mean? Wilson Birch, the only reason you're still alive and kicking is all thanks to Clara's bone marrow donation. If Clara wasn't so selfless, you would be a pile of ashes right now. You wouldn't be able to force her to kneel in front of her enemy!"Wilson felt like the blood in his body had gone cold. He trembled unc
"You… You must have gotten someone to imitate my voice and record the phone call! Y-You're so despicable!" Sandra hissed. Sandra kept reassuring herself that she had covered up and left no trail of evidence in the hospital's record. Serenity would not be able to find anything. Serenity's claim was just empty talk. Maybe she was bluffing!"Imitiate? If we compare the voice print, we'll know if it's an imitation or your voice," Serenity said unapologetically. "Sandra, I have evidence, and I would dare say that you weren't the one who donated bone marrow donor back then!"After saying that, Serenity turned to Wilson again. "Wilson, you think you are doing justice to yourself and your family. Clara is innocent, but you're venting all your hatred on her and taking your revenge against her. I don't think you can redeem yourself after everything you've done to her!"Serenity then turned around, leaving the ward. Jackson followed Serenity and brought his men together.Wilson was still
After Wilson left the ward, the three members of the Cooper family nearly collapsed in shock, and their panic grew."What should we do?!" Mrs. Cooper became panic-stricken. "We can't let Wilson know about the real donor—""Mom!" Sandra yelled, interrupting her. "We don't have to do anything! I'm the real donor! I donated my bone marrow to Wilson, and it's in the hospital's record. What can the phone recording prove? Anyone can fake a phone call from that long ago!" Desperate, Sandra tried to convince herself that everything would be fine. She had falsified the hospital records, and those records clearly pointed to her as the one who had donated the bone marrow! Clara had no evidence to prove otherwise!"Y-Yes! Yes! You're the real donor! You donated bone marrow to Wilson!" Mrs. Cooper snapped out of her anxiety and quickly calmed down.Mr. Cooper's face was contorted with fear. He knew Wilson would not simply believe that woman's words, but he would not believe them either. He woul
Serenity had gathered the relevant evidence about the bone marrow donor. She thought she was ready and planned to tell Wilson the truth over the next few days, but she was too late! Things had gotten worse within just a few days!Yanny had called Serenity earlier, asking for help. Alerted, Serenity had quickly urged Jack to find Clara's whereabouts and discovered that Wilson's men had forcibly taken Clara to the hospital. Serenity was glad to have come to Clara's rescue. If she had not, God knows what they would have done to Clara!"Hey, Jack. Did Wilson ever love Clara? How could he be so cruel to someone he used to love?" Serenity asked in a murmur.Jackson gently cupped Serenity's face. "Don't feel bad. I'll send someone to protect Clara. I won't let Wilson and the Cooper family hurt her again.""I'm angry," Serenity said. "Wilson, why couldn't he have shown any mercy for Clara?!" Any hint of mercy would have prevented this tragedy."You've told him about the bone marrow donati
