Nigel and Nellie were instantly stunned at Luna’s words.They looked at each other. They did not know why Luna suddenly said those words.In the end, Nigel, who was the more mature one, furrowed his brows. He leaned his emaciated body against the wall.“Mommy…did something happen with the bone marrow transplant?”Nigel’s question hit the nail on the head.Luna closed her eyes and sighed heavily. She nodded.She let go of Nellie and said seriously, “The donor pulled out last minute. They are not willing to undergo the surgery. I’m planning to look for a doctor right now. No matter what, I have to talk to the donor tonight.”Since the donor was willing to donate their bone marrow without any reward, that meant that they were willing to help Nigel.The situation at that moment might be perhaps that they have encountered some problems in life.Actually, while Luna was crying in the elevator, she had also made up her mind.It was almost seven in the evening at that moment. The doc
“The donor hopes that you and your relatives would stop finding out their identity. Whether it be now or after the bone marrow transplant.”Then, Rowena patted Luna on the shoulders.“Can you do that?”Luna furrowed her brows. “That simple?”She thought that the donor would pull out suddenly because they have encountered an unsolvable problem.Luna speculated that it was most probably financial problems. She was even ready to borrow another lump sum from Bonnie.However, Luna did not expect that the request that the donor came up with was just to forbid her to look for the donor? “Yes.”Perhaps, Rowena has long guessed that Luna would react this way. Rowena nodded.“The donor already knows that you previously tried to investigate them, so this is a warning.”Luna paused for a while.“Okay, I understand.”Luna only wanted to find the donor so she could do something to express her appreciation.Turns out, not only did she find the wrong person, she nearly made a gross mista
When Luna brought the ice cream back to the ward, Nigel was already asleep.Nigel was very understanding. To not let others worry for him, he has long tucked himself in bed and fell asleep.Luna placed the ice cream in front of Nellie. She opened one and passed it to Nellie.“Mommy, Dr. Rowena said that she was looking for you just now.”Nellie obediently accepted the ice cream from Luna. She ate and said, “She asked you to look for her once you return. I think it has something to do with Nigel’s surgery tomorrow.”Once Luna heard it had something to do with Nigel, she did not dare waste another second. She got up and headed out to Rowena’s office.Turns out, Rowena was not at her office.The intern doctor got Luna to sit down. “A patient just arrived just now. Dr. Rowena went to attend to them. Please wait for a while.”Luna nodded. She sat on the chair waiting while sending messages to Bonnie and Anne.She thought that Rowena would return soon, but she waited for half an h
Luna narrowed her eyes and looked at Joshua, who was leaning by the bed. Her eyes were filled with mockery.The real reason was that he hoped that she continued staying in the Lynch Group so she could be bullied by his beloved Ms. Blake, right? Joshua was still the same as before. Cold and heartless.To make his lover happy, he was willing to spend a huge amount of money to continue torturing his ex-wife.The ex-wife that took care of him for three days and three nights when he was unconscious.“Okay, I understand.”Luna took a deep breath. She swept Joshua a cold glance and smiled at Rowena.“It’s late. I should head back and rest. I’ll come to find you tomorrow to deal with the refund.”Then, Luna turned around and was about to leave.“Hold up.”Luna only turned and took two steps when Fiona’s sweet and gentle voice rang. Fiona pursed her lips and said in a very light and gentle tone, “Ms. Luna, I have something to say to you.”Luna furrowed her brows. She did not want
Luna’s single sentence made the entire room fall silent. Joshua looked at her with narrowed eyes but said nothing. Fiona bit her lip, she wanted to say something but restrained herself. Rowena looked as if she had been struck by lightning, even stopping her actions. After a few seconds of silence in the ward, Rowena sucked in a deep breath and stood up. She knew the relationship between the three people in front of her was very complicated. But she never expected it to be this complicated… So, she hurriedly packed up her stuff and quickly finished up her work. “I’ve already examined Ms. Blake’s condition three times, there’s absolutely nothing wrong. Tomorrow…”The moment the words left her mouth, Joshua hinted at her with his eyes and she immediately corrected herself. “Ms. Blake will recover by tomorrow.” With that, she took her medical report and stood up. “Then I’ll get out of your way, goodbye.” All three of them were tough characters to deal with, she did not want to
“Why did she talk to me like that…” With that, she bit her lip and wordlessly held Joshua’s big, dry hand. “Joshua, you really…really can’t make her leave the Lynch Group?”Actually, Fiona understood what Luna said just now. But she needed an opportunity to make this request from Joshua. Luna was too important to him. She did not want Luna to continue staying beside him. Sooner or later, something would happen. Joshua narrowed his eyes and faintly pulled his hand out of Fiona’s grasp. “Is it Luna you don’t trust, or me?” His low, cold voice made Fiona bite her lip. “That’s not what I meant, I…” “Since I agreed to your request and chose to be with you, I won’t abandon you so easily. I made you a promise. Luna is just my ex-wife, besides, you saw us with your own two eyes, we’re like fire and ice, why are you still worried?”“But Joshua…” Fiona lowered her head and whined pitifully, “Maybe this is my first time being in a relationship, so I feel very insecure… It’s my fault, my m
Joshua’s hands that were tucking the bedcovers around her paused mid-air. He frowned, gently reaching out a hand and patted her head. “That’s silly. Your health is in such a poor condition now, becoming pregnant now? Are you trying to worsen your condition?” Fiona lowered her head, a flash of urgency passing through her eyes. She almost forgot, in Joshua’s eyes, she was a critically ill woman. She bit her lip, her head lowered, her voice faint as she said, “But Joshua, I really want to give you a child. A child of our own. This way, someone will remember me after I die and pray for me on my death anniversary.” Joshua narrowed his eyes, smiling as he said flatly, “I’ll remember you and pray for you even without a child.” With that, he stood up. “It’s late, you should get some sleep.” Fiona watched as he stood up and pursed her lips tightly together. “Joshua, do you…think I’m not good enough for you?”She bit her lip, tears streaming down her cheeks quietly. “You said you would
After being in a coma for three whole days, after he awoke and even before the doctors had time to check his current condition, he immediately rushed to Orchard Manor to seek out Fiona. He knew very well that Fiona had been locking herself in her bedroom at Orchard Manor for the past few days not because her condition had worsened, but because she did not want to donate her bone marrow to Nigel. At the end of the day, Fiona donating her bone marrow to Nigel was a business deal between Fiona and himself. On the surface, Fiona looked soft and gentle, relying on him for everything, but in actuality, she remembered everything clearly. He was only in a coma for a few days and already she wanted to destroy their agreement and refuse to donate her bone marrow to Nigel.Joshua knew everything, but for Nigel’s sake, he had no choice but to submit to humiliation and do everything that Fiona wanted him to do. Of course, that did not include giving him a child that she mentioned just now.
