How could she sleep?Every time she lay down, the thought of finding a bone marrow match flashed across her head. Now, she had to wait for news from the bone marrow bank.In case there was still no match, she could only pin her hope on Shawn and see him with Nicole."I'd better stay. You and Joshua can go to the hotel and get a good night's sleep tonight," Gale said. "You have to take good care of yourself so that you can have the energy to take care of Nicole."Under Zoe's persuasion, Gale took the room card.When she arrived at the hotel, she was taken aback for a moment.It was because this was a five-star hotel in the city.How could Zoe have the money to live here?Could it be… Aurum!Gale quickened her pace and came to the room.As soon as she opened the door, she saw a figure by the window.Aurum, wearing a blue shirt and gray trousers, turned around when he heard the sound.Although they have been in touch for four years, they have never seen each other.Seeing
What a dilemma.She could not bear to give Nicole to Shawn because she would lose her beloved daughter.However, what would Joshua do if she went to see Shawn with Nicole?Could she bring Joshua back?Both children belonged to Shawn!She could not compete with him!However, if Joshua were left to live with Zoe and never showed up, and Shawn did not even know that he had a son, it would mean that Gale would never be able to meet Joshua again.Otherwise… Shawn will discover Joshua's existence sooner or later.Whether it was a son or a daughter, they were all his children.Gale could not bear it!"I want Nicole, and I also want Joshua. I know it's greedy and difficult, but I... I'm their mother," Gale said.Aurum walked in front of her, raised his hand, hesitated for a few seconds, and finally landed on her shoulder. "Think carefully. There is still time."Gale had thought about this question many times.No solution.There was no right answer!"My original thought was that
"For Nicole, I can do anything."Aurum walked back and forth in front of the windows with his hands behind his back, and after a while, he said, "Maybe, I can secretly check if Shawn's bone marrow matches.""If it doesn't match, then you don't need to bring Nicole to him because he can't save Nicole. I can also help you with things if that happens."Gale asked, "What if it matches?"Aurum looked at her firmly. "Then join forces with Joe and find a way to get Shawn to the hospital to complete the bone marrow transplant."This idea… was too bold!It was too risky!Gale stood up in shock. "Joe? Why do we need him?""Because he may know that you are not dead.""What?!"Aurum explained, "Before you jumped into the sea, I said before that someone is checking us. Do you remember?""Yes!""That person is not Shawn, but Joe. But it's strange that he didn't act on it after he found out. After you jumped into the sea and left, he came to me and tested me."Gale did not expect that th
However, she could not care less. Her eyes went dark, but she quickly regained her composure and ran out quickly.That was her whole world!She had just returned to the hotel, and the hospital bed was empty!?Was Shawn here?He came with Aurum and then took the two children away?!Gale stumbled, knocked down several people along the way, and went straight to the nurse's station."Where is the child on bed 26?" Gale grabbed a nurse and asked frantically, "The one who is still living there today, why did she disappear? Where is she!? I haven't gone through the discharge procedures!""I am her mother, and I have the right to decide whether she lives in the hospital or not! How can you let her go casually!""Give me back my daughter! Give her back to me!" The nurse was frightened and said, "What are you talking about?"Gale yelled, "Nicole, in bed 26!" "A three-year-old girl with leukemia, where is she? Why is she missing? Her hospital bed was cleaned up!"There was a big hole in
"We are already looking for a matching donor in the bone marrow bank. You just need to wait for the news," the doctor said."How long will it take?""If all goes well, it will probably be about half a month.""Is it not going well?" The doctor hesitated for a few seconds before replying, "The success rate of bone marrow matching is usually one in a few million... the probability is very low. Whether there is a match is one thing. If there is a match, rejection may also occur.""Rejection?""Yes, but if it is a family member's bone marrow match, the possibility of rejection is much lower."Gale understood the most important parts of it.Now… it depended on whether Shawn's bone marrow could match."It's okay, just be positive. There are so many volunteers now. Maybe, there will be matched soon!"Gale forced a smile and said, "I hope so."…In Sea City.Inside Temperley Hall.Shawn sat in front of the desk, the faint blue light of the computer reflected on his face."Have yo
There was one last person… the woman he glimpsed at the stairs of the hospital.She walked through that door twice and flashed by less than two meters away from him.It very much resembled her.It was as if she was standing in front of him.Shawn closed his eyes, unconsciously recalling the scene in his mind.Why could he not be faster so that he could grab her and stop her?He could have torn off her mask and saw her full face!However, why was Shawn stunned?If only he were one second quicker. If he had been a second quicker, he would not have missed her.The vast sea of people, how could he even find her again?"Knock, knock…" There was a sudden knock on the door of the study."Come in."When the door opened, it was Winnie who came in.Shawn frowned deeply.He thought it was the housekeeper.Winnie walked in with warm milk and said, "Mr. Wood, it's so late. Why aren't you resting? I see that the light in your study is still on, so I brought you a cup of hot milk.
"The milk...""Get out!"His voice was sharp, and Winnie was so frightened that she dared not breathe and left in a desperate state.It had been several days since she came to Temperley Hall, and the time she spent alone with Mr. Wood had never exceeded half an hour!How could she have a baby!Her plans with Lucas earlier…How could she fulfill Lucas' entrustment?Winnie thought about it but was not quite reconciled, so she simply stood at the door of the study and waited.The night was quiet, the moon was dark, and the wind was strong. It was said that night was when people were most vulnerable. She tried to cry a little to win the sympathy of Mr. Wood, and maybe she could get a chance to enter the master bedroom!Winnie used to be an actress. Squeezing out a few tears was easy for her!The study was quiet again.The milk was placed there quietly, steaming.He thought of sleep aids and scoffed.Heh… for four years, he has never had a full night's sleep!Not a single on
Shawn's eyes are scarlet.The effect of the medicine was quite powerful, and he almost lost control!Shawn raised his hand and grabbed Winnie's neck fiercely. "It's you! You drugged me!"His hand tightened suddenly, almost breaking that slender neck!Her face quickly turned red as she struggled to breathe. "I… I don't… cough, cough… Mr. Wood...I wouldn't dare... Mr. Wood… Let go… Let go..." she hurriedly explained with difficulty. "Only you!""Really not… No..."Winnie felt that she was about to suffocate, and tears rolled down her eyes unconsciously.Shawn's hands were really heavy and cruel, and she was about to die in his hands!His instinct was overpowered by the effect of medicine. Even the rational Shawn could not escape.The skin on his hands was delicate and smooth, exuding a scent...He could not bear it anymore!"I... how could I do such a stupid... thing… I… I gave you the milk... When you drink it, you... have a problem. Naturally, you are looking for me...I'
