Because Raine’s bone marrow wasn’t compatible, there was only Summer left. How would Mark possibly agree to allow her to donate her bone marrow to his mistress, Samantha?Although she disliked Summer or the child she was bearing, the child had certainly arrived at the right time. Comment by Chein Ling Foo: OriginalAlthough he couldn’t wait to see Summer or the child she was bearing,MistranslationEven the heavens were in her favor. It only meant that the vixen, Samantha, was not going to have a happy ending!It was already 3:00 pm when Summer woke up. Charlotte had unknowingly snuggled up and slept beside her, burying her face within her chest.She moved her body carefully and planned to prepare lunch. After a long day and a few hours of rest, Charlotte would surely be hungry when she wakes up. Just as she had put on her slippers, her phone rang.She leaned forward and picked up her phone. The screen displayed a string of numbers; although there was no name, it was a familia
As she was still lost in her thoughts, a loud thud was heard. She turned around curiously and only to find Ronald on his knees.Astonished, she froze to her spot, and went into a daze for a long time.“There is no suitable donor now, only you can save her. The doctor has said that treating leukemia in its early stage has the highest chance of recovery. If this golden opportunity has passed, the recovery rate will be reduced by half. Please, I beg you today.”Ronald was a well-known figure in both Santabaca and Grudin North. When had he pleaded with anyone before? Summer was the first and the only one. Although it hurt his pride and was unbearable, he still had to do it!Summer could tell that Ronald loved Samantha. Otherwise, why would a prominent person do such a thing for a woman. If it wasn’t love, what would it be?Although she was stunned, she was touched by his actions, but it did not mean that she was willing to sacrifice her child.Let nothing overstep each other. No matt
At this moment, all Summer cared about was the child in her womb.Her concerns were also rested upon the child…Like what had happened before, she had no idea she was pregnant. Thus, she did not have second thoughts when it came to donating her bone marrow. However, the problem arose because of the child.‘If she weren’t pregnant, there was nothing she would need to worry about…‘Therefore, should I…’An idea appeared in his head. Ronald blinked, and then squinted his eyes upward.…When Mark returned to the apartment, Summer had prepared dinner and was serving the soup.Mark rubbed his lips and stared at her twice; then he took off his jacket and casually tossed them onto the sofa.“Did anyone approach you?” he asked.Since Raine’s bone marrow wasn’t compatible, it was only natural that everyone shifted their attention toward her. Anyhow, there were only two persons who would approach her; it could only be either Ronald, or Samantha.Before Summer could speak, Charlotte, who
Charlotte was jumping around after dinner, wanting to watch the television. She could not get her mind off Barney: New Year Special. But, it was already half-past nine and she still had school tomorrow, so Summer insisted on switching off the television.Charlotte was actually still afraid of Summer. Even though she was reluctant, Charlotte had no choice but to stumble back into her room after she saw the look on Summer’s face.Summer returned to her own room after she put her to bed. The first thing she saw was the man with his left hand on his neck, watching her. Placed in front of him was a set of fiery red lingerie. He nodded smugly as she walked in, and his intentions were more than obvious. Summer gritted her teeth and grabbed the lingerie from the table before she walked into the changing room. Her cheeks turned red when she looked at her reflection in the mirror. She could not help but gulp. ‘How could I walk out in this?’She could not even bring herself to walk out of
“Yes, I’ve arranged everything.” The man nodded.“That’s good…” Ronald stood up with a deep look on his face, and his emotions were unreadable... ....Charlotte ate a lot, and she almost finished all the mashed potatoes by herself. Mark also had a few spoonfuls himself as he found it to be quite palatable.It was never an easy task to satisfy Mr. Valentine. ‘It seems like the breakfast shop has really done a good job with their food. It’s not far from our place, and the price is reasonable too.’ Summer was considering getting their breakfast regularly from that shop. She went back to the same shop the very next morning as Charlotte was already craving their mashed potatoes badly. “Two mashed potatoes, one hot chocolate, and two orange juices. I’ll have everything to go.” She pulled out her wallet as she ordered.“We’ve run out of orange juice. Would you like to try horchata? It’s quite nutritious.” The waiter suggested as his eyes shone lightly. Summer had never tried hor
Summer had been having horchata every morning for a whole week. In fact, she could even gulp down two horchatas in the morning due to her increased appetite. Mark would have Harry bring her lunch in the afternoon, and Solomon would fetch her back home with his motorcycle to eat whatever Daisy had prepared for dinner. This afternoon was no more different, and Solomon laughed while he said, “I am already your personal chauffeur now, sending you home every day after work.”“Don’t you want to be my chauffeur, Dad?” Summer wrapped her arms around his waist and leaned on his back as she played daddy’s little girl, the same way she had always been doing since she was young“You’re still acting like a baby even when you’re already an adult now.” Solomon sighed softly. “Why would I not want to be my own daughter’s chauffeur?”They were talking to each other while Solomon was riding his motorcycle, and he did not notice a pedestrian. He wanted to avoid the pedestrian but he lost control o
“I’m really okay. It only hurt for a while. I think I just ate something wrong, so it’s all good now.” She continued, “Let’s go back to the apartment.”Mark arched his brows as he was still a little worried. “Are you sure?”“Of course. Do you want me to jump around and prove it to you?” She blinked and said cheekily. “Save it. Just let me know if you’re feeling unwell, okay?” She was pregnant. Was she trying to scare him by jumping around? Summer nodded and grabbed Charlotte’s hand before she continued her way down the stairs. The pain had only lasted for a few seconds before it vanished, so she was not too bothered by it.She had the same stinging sensation when she woke up in the morning. But it also went away after a short while, so she was still not concerned about it. Charlotte had also woken up, and she wanted to eat mashed potatoes as well as horchata. Plus, she had scattered her toys all over the floor. She did not brush her teeth or wash her face after she woke up i
Solomon was still as stubborn as an ox, behaving like a child. “What for? My body is still strong. I can live for another forty years at least, so I don’t need a check-up!”Summer was at her wit's end with him, but she had already planned something in her mind. She was going to drag Solomon with her the next time she visited the hospital. Summer did not spend much time at home. She packed up the roasted vegetables that Daisy had prepared before she left with Charlotte.Mark had an important meeting to attend that night, so he could not make it back to send them to his apartment. That was why they took a cab back instead. After Summer put Charlotte to bed, she sat on the couch in the living room and waited for Mark. But, a burst of sleepiness hit her as she slowly fell asleep on the couch. The quartz clock that hung in the middle of the living room pointed at one. The apartment door made a creaking sound, and Mark’s tall and burly silhouette appeared before the door. It looked
