"So perhaps you’re needed at the hospital now."
——
When Hesper arrived at the hospital, Rickard was already there, talking to the doctor about something.
As soon as Benji saw Hesper, he winked at her. Hesper frowned and walked over, hearing Rickard ask
the doctor about Renfrew’s bone marrow transplantation procedure.
"About this... You and Renfrew were actually a perfect match, but your current physical condition won’t
allow you to bear the intensity of this operation." The doctor naturally knew that the person standing in
front of him was Rickard, so he adjusted his glasses a few times out of anxiety, thinking about how to
explain the situation to him.
"The extraction of the bone marrow isn’t as simple as you think. It’ll cause a certain degree of harm to
the wellbeing of the donor..."
"That’s enough." Hesper interrupted the doctor’s hesitant response. She looked at Rickard, who was
standing on the side, and said calmly, "Even if you go hard on the doctor, he still won’t be able to find
you a person whose bone marrow is compatible with Renfrew to proceed with the operation." Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
The doctor looked at Hesper gratefully. When Benji waved at him at the other end of the corridor, the
doctor took the cue. He turned around and ran away from Rickard.
"Professor Miles said that he has a way to restore my body to its peak condition as soon as possible.
Although there will be some side effects, I’m an adult and can bear it," Rickard said with an unchanging
expression. Hesper scoffed.
When Rickard frowned, Hesper said, "So you’ll let your body suffer another breakdown, then leave
everything to me again, and I’ll have to find a way to save you. What is this? Are you trying to play
Russian roulette with death?"
Benji and Renee looked at each other and lowered their heads at the same time.
Although Hesper’s words sounded a little cold and humorous, her tone sounded completely indifferent.
"Don’t forget, I just saved your life. If you want to throw it away in order to save Ren’s, I absolutely
won’t agree to that."
Rickard had already thought about it carefully. Renfrew’s situation was quite urgent now, and his own
health had always been rather excellent. It was just a few side effects that would not be too devastating
to his health.
However, Hesper did not seem like she would take no for an answer at that moment, so Rickard did not
refute.
Hesper continued. "I’ve just checked with the attending doctor about Ren’s situation. It’s not so urgent
that we have to exchange one life for another."
‘But if his condition were to continue to deteriorate at this speed, I’m afraid that we won’t have much
time left.’
Hesper did not utter the rest of the sentence, but everyone knew the obvious outcome deep down.
They were silent for a while until there was a sudden commotion coming from not far away.
"Why can’t I visit my grandson?! We’re talking about my grandson here!"
‘This voice sounds familiar.’
Hesper frowned and glanced in the direction of the noise. It really was Julie. A nurse was stopping
them from entering Renfrew’s ward.
Julie had her hips akimbo. Ever since she married into the Duvals, she had not been stopped outside
any venue that she wanted to step foot into. However, this nurse was rather persistent. Julie had come
by several times and was stopped outside the door every time.
After taking a few steps forward, Rickard opened his mouth. "Mother."
Julie turned her head and saw Rickard and Hesper standing side by side not far away, looking
expressionless.
