He gazed at her intently.
Natalie shook her head and offered a perfunctory reply. “I know Ms. Graham. I’ve met her before.”
“Oh, really?” Sean was genuinely surprised. Stroking his chin, he mumbled, “Looks like my predictions are wrong.”
As he spoke, the doors of the operation theatre were flung open and a nurse hurriedly walked out.
Natalie stood up immediately. “How’s my son?”
The nurse stopped in her tracks and asked, “Are you the child’s mother?”
“Yes.” Natalie nodded firmly.
After a moment of hesitation, she replied, “He doesn’t seem to be doing so well.”
Natalie froze, feeling like her world had collapsed around her.
Afraid that she could not bear it, Shane quickly moved behind her.
If she collapsed again, he could catch her in time.
“What do you mean?” Shane stared at the nurse intently, his voice betraying his deep anxiety.
Even Sean’s expression became much more serious, unlike his usual frivolous demeanor.
Gazing at Shane, who looked like a carbon copy of Connor, the nurse sighed. “Your child has lost too much blood and requires an urgent blood transfusion. However, his blood type is the RH negative blood
type, which is very rare. As we don’t have a lot of it left in the blood bank, I’m on my way to look for more blood.”
“You can take mine!” Shane rolled up his sleeves unhesitatingly.
When Natalie heard that, she quickly shook her head and pressed his arm down. “No, we can’t take yours!”
As he was Connor’s father, there was a higher probability of a blood clot occurring if he donated his blood.
However, Shane was clueless about her concern. Thinking that she did not want to owe him a favor, his expression instantly turned grim. He stared at her coldly and demanded, “Natalie, why are you still stopping me at this critical juncture?”
“It’s not that. I just…”
“Take mine!” Just when Natalie was struggling to find the right words to explain to him, Sean suddenly stepped forward. “I also have the RH negative blood type.”
Feeling like she had finally found a savior, she instantly glanced at him gratefully. “Thank you, Mr. Sean.”
Although he was Connor’s uncle, they were not directly related. Hence, there should be no problem with the blood transfusion.
“It’s nothing. Just remember that you owe me a favor.” Sean glanced back at her slyly and followed the nurse. Humming as he walked, he looked like he was going for a leisure tour instead of a blood transfusion.
“Thank you, Mr. Sean!” Natalie bowed in his direction.
Without turning back, Sean merely waved his hand in acknowledgment.
She stood up straight again, looking extremely relieved.
When Shane saw her smile, he clenched his fists. “Are you that assured if he’s the one donating the blood?”
“Yeah! Connor can finally be saved,” replied Natalie as she wiped her tears away.
A cold glint flashed across his eyes. “So, he can donate his blood, but I can’t?”
“Huh?” She turned around to look at him.
With a grim expression, he repeated, “I offered to donate blood to Connor. Why did you choose him instead? Why did you do that even though you know that he’s up to no good?”
Could it be that she thinks I’m inferior to Sean?
Natalie cast her gaze downward and replied, “Mr. Shane, I didn’t choose you because you’re different from him.”
“How am I different?” Shane narrowed his eyes.
Natalie’s lips twitched, but she gave no response.
When he noticed her silence, a frosty expression instantly appeared on his face. He stared at her coldly, exuding a hostile aura.
Although Natalie knew that he was angry, she did not know how to mitigate his fury.
At that moment, two people in police uniforms walked over. “Are you the parents of the child in the emergency operating theatre?” This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
“I am! I’m his mother.” Natalie placed her hand on her chest and quickly replied.
Shane did not deny that he was Connor’s father.
The two police officers nodded. “We’re here to inform you about your child’s car accident.”
“Do tell us! I’m fine with listening to you now.” Natalie clenched her fists.
