"I don't want to get involved with him. Besides, in my current condition, even a liver transplant might not work anymore. The surgery may also be unsuccessful," Clara said. If her cancer was only Stage 1 or Stage 2, she would have a much higher chance of survival after a liver transplant.But her cancer was Stage 3. It's already too late. Even if the surgery was successful, it might not save her anymore."I can ask Jack to get the best doctor to perform the surgery," Serenity quickly said.Clara smiled gently and said, "Serenity, thank you, but you've done more than enough for me. I don't want to spend the last few months of my life on a hospital bed. If I undergo the surgery, I probably won't be able to leave the hospital afterwards.""But...""I don't want to waste the last few months of my life in the hospital. The surgery won't do much for me now," Clara said.She was keenly aware that her condition was worsening every day. Since that's the case, why bother?Serenity realize
All the things she didn't have time to do because of her busy life, she could now do them.It was time to pick Yanny up from the kindergarten. Clara bid Mrs. Wells goodbye and left the house.She did not notice the car that was silently following her.Wilson's heart hurt looking at Clara's back as she walked.She did not want to see him ever again. His presence would only upset her. Therefore, he could only watch her from the shadows like this. He didn't even know how to persuade her to accept his liver donation.Serenity's only advice was: "Clara has the right to make her own choice. It's probably too late to convince her to change her mind. We have to think of another way. If you really want to save Clara, be prepared to donate your liver at a moment's notice."Of course he wanted to save her. Therefore, he quit drinking and hired a nutritionist to prepare his meals to ensure that his liver was in perfect condition!From his car, Wilson watched Clara get on the bus. He trailed
"That's not up to you," Clara said. She held Yanny's hand and turned around to leave. She wanted to take Yanny to a quiet place to comfort him.After all, there were many parents around, and she didn't want the argument to cause Yanny further embarrassment.However, the woman suddenly said very loudly, "Why should we let our kids attend the same kindergarten as an ex-convict's son? An ex-convict's son may very well grow up to be a criminal too thanks to his parent's influence!"She had obviously raised her voice so that everyone around could hear her.All of a sudden, the parents around them all looked over.Clara's footsteps halted. She turned back and glared at the woman coldly. "There's no grudge between us. Why must you say something so vicious in front of the children? Apologize to my son right now. He has never done anything illegal. You have no right to make malicious speculations about his future like that!"The woman was momentarily taken aback by Clara's fierce attitude
After all, she was just an ordinary person. Although she was decently rich and her husband was a manager, she was nothing compared to Wilson Birch.If Wilson Birch really were to sue her, their family would definitely be in trouble.She had deliberately tried to draw attention to their argument so that she could embarrass Clara, but now, with all those gazes on her, she was the one who was embarrassed instead.The woman felt humiliated, scared and anxious, but she had no choice but to humble herself and say, "I... I'm sorry, Mr. Birch, I got emotional and spoke without thinking. I didn't mean it.""Don't apologize to me. Apologize to my son and..." he paused and hesitated a little before he continued, "...my son's mother!"He didn't know how to describe the relationship between him and Clara right now.The woman was put in an extremely awkward spot. She couldn't wait to get out of there, so she quickly said to Clara and Yanny, "I'm sorry, I spoke without thinking. I'll never ment
However, after hearing what he had to say, Clara's face remained calm, as if she had only heard something insignificant. "Are you done? Please get out of the way. I need to take my son home!""Clara, I know you don't want to see me, so I... I've tried to avoid appearing in front of you as best I can, but I beg you, don't push me away. At the very least, don't refuse my liver donation. If you don't undergo surgery, you'll...""Shut up!" Clara violently cut Wilson off. She looked nervously at her son, deeply afraid that Yanny would learn of her condition.She had always deliberately avoided her son when she took medicine. She didn't want her son to know that she had a terminal illness.She didn't want the little boy to worry about her during her final days.When Wilson noticed Clara's agitation, he immediately realized that Yanny was probably oblivious to her condition."Mommy, are you sick? Why do you need surgery?" Yanny blinked and asked in confusion."It's nothing. Mommy's fin
Wilson decided he couldn't wait anymore. He scooped Clara up in his arms and said to Yanny, "Follow me. We're going to take Mommy to the hospital. You don't want to see Mommy in pain, do you?"The little boy stopped protesting and followed closely behind Wilson.When they reached Wilson's car, Wilson placed Clara in the passenger seat while Yanny climbed into the back seat without a word.The little boy kept checking up on Clara through the gap between the seats, all the while saying, "Mommy, it's okay, it's okay, when we get to the hospital, the doctors will heal you. After that, you won't be in pain anymore!"The pain had finally subsided a little, giving Clara a brief moment of respite. She tried her best to force a smile so that Yanny wouldn't feel so worried. "Mommy's fine... It'll stop hurting soon..."The sight of the mother and son broke Wilson's heart. He stepped on the pedal, and the car rushed towards the hospital.Clara clenched her teeth tight, not allowing herself t
The news shocked Serenity. She said, "Okay, I'll be there right away.""Serenity," Wilson said, his voice low and hoarse, "I... seldom ask anyone for favors, but I'm begging you, please convince Clara to accept my liver donation. No matter what, please make her agree to the liver transplant!"Serenity was a little taken aback. She had talked to Wilson before so she knew what a proud man he was. It must not be easy for him to beg others.It's probably not just Clara's life at stake now; Wilson was also desperate.If Clara died, it would make Wilson's life a living hell."I understand," Serenity replied."What's the matter?" Jackson asked after she hung up."Clara's in the hospital. The doctor said she has to undergo a liver transplant right now or it'll be too late." Serenity stood up and said, "I'm going to the hospital to persuade Clara to do the surgery.""I'll come with you," Jackson said."But you have to go to work...""I just have to sign some documents. I'll deal with
"Serenity, what are you doing here?" Clara asked."Wilson informed me," Serenity approached Clara, then took a deep breath and said, "Clara, do the surgery! This is your last chance! If you miss this chance, it'll be too late!""Serenity!" Clara instantly became anxious, clearly afraid of Yanny finding out about her illness.But Serenity had said it in front of Yanny precisely because she hoped that Yanny would convince Clara to take the gamble."Clara, I know that a few months' time is very precious to the current you, and you're scared that you'll lose those precious few months if you lose the gamble, but... if you win, you'll be able to watch Yanny grow up!"Serenity stopped and caressed her bulging belly before she continued, "I took a gamble too. It would have been a safer choice to undergo the multifetal reduction surgery, but as a mother, it's hard for me to give up either of my three babies. Therefore, I decided to take the gamble together with my babies.""Clara, you hav
