Chapter 441

Tina and Jimmy were just leaving the hospital when a figure steered her wheelchair toward them, grabbing Tina's hand as everyone watched, crying and begging, "Please, Tina, I'm begging you—you have to help Rory!"She's dying, and she'll be dead without your friend's kidney!"She's only seven! She's just a child—please, take pity on her! Don't be so cold-blooded and stop your friend from donating his kidney! A feud between adults shouldn't hurt the kids! Rory is innocent!"Linda was smart—she actually mentioned that they had a feud.And for most people, whenever they thought of a feud between two women, they would immediately presume it was a love triangle—that the women were after the same man.That was why Linda would take the moral high ground and coerce Tina into relenting through emotional blackmail.Still, Jimmy himself pried Linda's fingers off even before Tina spoke. "Don't touch Tina with your filthy hands, and quit your slander! I'm the one who's refusing to donate my ow

Linda did not think that Tina could completely ignore the mob's outrage, even turning the tables on her!If Linda refused to bow, that meant she did not love her daughter.Even if that was a fact, she could not let it show in front of the public!Her jaw clenching so hard she could crush her own teeth, Linda had no choice but to slide off her wheelchair with considerable difficulty, breathing, "I'm begging you, Tina."The same thing had happened two years ago, but the roles were reversed—Linda had been on her feet, while Tina had been prostrating herself and begging.Tina would never forget the day Linda threatened her with Sophie's ashes, and how it ripped her heart apart because she really thought it was Sophie.She had not hesitated to kowtow until her head bled as Linda demanded, but Linda scattered Sophie's ashes anyway.Her heart was left in pieces then.Even if she later found out that the ashes were not Sophie, her heartache and the way Linda humiliated her was never fo

Thud!Thud!Linda only bowed just three times, but she was at once dizzy and bleeding from her forehead."Linda!" Henry cried as he rushed to her side.Just as he dropped to a couch, she promptly dropped limply into his arms, blood flowing freely down her head as she rasped, "Henry… Calm down, I'm alright."Her face was covered in blood and tears—it was a gruesome sight."For Rory's sake, I won't just bow—I'm willing to die for her if I have to." Even so, she tugged feebly on Henry's arm, while continuing to prove how deeply she loved Rory as she turned to Tina. "Can you let Jimmy save Rory now? I've already bowed as you demanded…"Henry's face dropped at those words.Glowering, he gently reached down to pick up Linda from the floor, but she refused and stayed on her knees, tears covering her face as she cried, "Haven't I bowed enough? I can keep going, as long as you promise to save Rory!"Linda was ready to keep bowing as she finished, but Henry caught her, stopping her fr

Chapter 444

But as Rory really grew on Henry, he could see that she really thought of him as her father, and he treated her as his daughter in turn.Nonetheless, Jimmy snorted. "What does Rory Cook have to do with me? Who do you think she is? Why should I sacrifice my dreams to save her? You want me to donate my kidney to her? Not in this lifetime!" And with that, he took Tina's hand and turned to leave.As Linda saw that Henry was not stopping them, she promptly tugged on him. "Are you just going to let him go?! What about Rory?!""No." He shook his head. "Jimmy is competing by the end of the month. Stop obsessing over him—I'll get Rory another donor."Jimmy's words just reminded Henry about the tournament, and that Jimmy was not representing himself but the whole nation.Rory's life mattered, but saving her should not come at such a cost.Linda's lips twitched, as she really wanted to argue.So what if Jimmy had to give up on the tournament?It was not like he was going to win gold—eve

Chapter 445

Jimmy had already been transferred to a ward when Tina arrived at the hospital he was in.She ran into his teammate on the way there, who was going out for a smoke in the fire escape stairs, and paused when he saw Tina.Tina was gasping as she ran all the way there and asked him gingerly, "Is Jimmy alright?"Why a traffic accident, and at this time?She did not dare to think how devastated Jimmy would be after he had worked so hard for years but still could not accomplish his dream."He's safe, but one of his wrists is thoroughly hurt," the teammate said somberly. "And the doctor is saying that it's disabled."He was like a brother to Jimmy and knew better than anyone how hard Jimmy had worked to get gold.But now, Jimmy could not even compete with his wrist disabled.Tina staggered backward at the news, the rim of her eyes reddened as tears soon covered her face.It took her a long while to stop crying and wipe the tears off her face, compose herself, and head inside.The do

However, Tina was even more tearful as she saw that Jimmy's eyes were bloodshot, but he still played it down anyway.She turned away to wipe away her tears before they could fall. "I get it—you have a stout heart, and nothing ever gets you down! You're the best, Jimmy Jones!"She was not about to let him down and played along to feign calmness, as if she was not sad."Exactly!" Jimmy grinned.But even as they feigned nonchalance, the somber mood in the room lingered, until Jimmy's teammate entered with the cops, who were there to take his witness' account, in tow.Once they confirmed Jimmy was in a state to talk, they first asked for a summary of what happened before telling them about their investigation."We thought it was a run-of-the-mill accident too, until we found the car camcorder."The driver wasn't drunk before he crashed into you—he only drank after you showed up."And it was deliberate, unlike the drunk-driving he claimed it was."Still, he was quite tight-lipped a

Chapter 447

"Henry Barnes! There really isn't an ounce of humanity in you!"Livid, Tina could rip Henry to shreds right then.Was Rory really so important that he did not care who he hurt?!On the other hand, Henry had one hand on Rory and the other on the bowl.Tina had rushed over so quickly that he did not have time to move.Watching as the soup splashed toward them, he leaned forward instinctively to shield Rory in his arms.The scalding soup hence rained over his back and hand, the skin on his forearm turning red immediately in front of his rolled up sleeves.However, he was not worried about himself, instead quickly looking downward at Rory and asking worriedly, "Are you alright, Rory? Did you get burned?""No, Daddy. I'm fine," Rory replied, but her face was clearly pale from fright.Still, she quickly noticed his scalded arm despite being scared. "Does it hurt, Daddy?"She cried even harder, blowing on his arm as she did.Henry's eyes appeared pained as he watched her and patted

Chapter 448

Rory was still young, but she had already inherited Linda's two-faced nature—even as she grabbed Tina's arms, she sunk her nails into Tina's skin.After all, Rory knew full well that Linda really hated Tina.If Linda knew she hurt Tina, Linda would definitely be very happy.Tina's expression was cold, however, as she could feel sick if Linda or Rory so much as touched her.Still, Rory was just a child and sick on top of that, so she did not get too violent despite her disgust and only shook Rory off.However…"Argh!"As soon as Tina shook Rory off, Rory suddenly fell backward, hitting her head on the headboard with an audible thud.She had seen it done on TV, and Linda would sometimes do the same thing too.Everytime it was done, the people who 'hurt' them would never be able to defend themselves and get hated.Rory wanted Henry to hate Tina, and she wanted Linda and Henry to be together, so that Henry would not leave Linda!However, she was just a child and misjudged her fa

Henry then turned toward the doctor standing nearby. "Keep Rory stable before I get back."Seeing the look in Henry's eyes, the doctor did not hesitate and nodded. "Yes, Mr. Barnes!"He did not even ask when Henry would be back."Henry…"Linda kept sobbing uncontrollably, looking at Henry tearfully expectantly, pinning all her hopes on him."Just wait. I'll be back—I'll save Rory," he growled as he strode out without delay, calling Yancy as he did.-As soon as Tina returned to Jimmy's ward, Jimmy was watching her worriedly. "Are you alright?""Yeah." Tina nodded, feeling guilty as she stared at his hand.She knew that there was no point going to Henry when she could not do anything to him, but she was just too upset, and her heart bled for Jimmy.Sighing, she said, "I'm sorry.""What are you apologizing for? Don't blame yourself for everything!"Jimmy snorted and flicked her on the forehead. "It's the driver and the people who made him do it who should be apologizing. It's

Chapter 450

Henry's fingers clenched around the organ donation papers, as Jimmy had hit him where it hurt.Still, he soon pushed the agony from Sophie's death to the back of his mind—his priority was to make Jimmy sign the organ donation papers and arrange for the kidney transplant surgery for Rory."Jimmy Jones—we are talking about Rory right now," Henry said."There's nothing to talk about." Jimmy snorted. "My kidneys are mine, and it's up to me whether I donate them. And I'll say it again—her death means nothing to me. Stop bothering me, because I'll never do it."If she dies, it's her mother's sins piling on her, invoking comeuppance. If she dies sooner, then it's the powers that be deciding that it's time to punish evil!"The brat was already twisted at seven—if she got older, she might even outshine Linda and become a plague upon society.Nonetheless, Henry's expression turned cold. "Don't push me!""Or what, are you going to steal my kidneys?" Jimmy retorted, fearless.They were tal
