Boss, Your Wife is Asking for A Divorce, Again!

Chapter 417 Kidney Failure

She didn’t want to be blind any longer since it would lead to more complications as time went on.

First and foremost, Sonia had to worry about Paradigm. Asher had always eyed for a chance to snatch half of the

management rights she held. If she didn’t show up for work at Paradigm Co. for a long while, he would definitely

seize the chance and persuade those under her before causing all sorts of trouble for her.

Secondly, Titus was another cause of her worries. Even though she tried her hardest to mask the fact that she

couldn’t see, he would soon discover that she was blind if he used some effort to investigate it. Although Toby had

done his part by giving his fair share of warning and Titus wouldn’t do anything in broad daylight, he probably could

pull his little assaults in the dark without Toby being made aware of it.

So, it was a necessity for her to regain her eyesight as soon as possible for both Paradigm Co. and her own sake.

Since Tim was well-versed with psychology, he could guess what Sonia thought when he saw her anxious behavior.

He patted her shoulder lightly in assurance. “Don’t worry, you haven’t recovered your vision because the blood clot

in your brain hasn’t completely disappeared yet. The blood clot wasn’t extremely large when we checked the last

time, so I guess it’ll dissipate soon enough. Judging by the time needed, you’ll probably recover in a few days.”

Upon hearing that, she sighed in relief. “That’s good to know.”

“Other than your loss of sight, is there anywhere that feels wrong? What about the dizziness you mentioned?” He

leaned against his desk as he asked.

She shook her head. “It’s gone now.”

“Okay, got it. So, I don’t have to prescribe medicine for that,” he spoke while fiddling with his scalpel.

Sonia stood up from the couch. “Thank you for the session. I’ll be leaving now.”

Wanda approached Sonia to help her into the wheelchair.

Tim rose to his full height as well. “I’ll see you off to the elevators.”

The three walked out of the office and headed for the elevators.

They had just arrived when Wanda suddenly gasped.

A confused Sonia turned around. “What’s the matter, Wanda?”

“I saw Titus and his wife walking out from the nephrology department to the elevator over there. They don’t look

too good, especially Mrs. Gray. Her eyes are red as if she has been crying,” Wanda answered as she looked in front.

In response, Sonia raised an eyebrow. “Nephrology? What are they doing there?” There’s even crying involved. A

single fall couldn’t have such damage to the waist, can it? That’s weird. The bones would usually be hurt from that

kind of fall and the organs won’t be affected whatsoever.

“If you’re so curious, I can just ask for information. Don’t forget, this is my hospital,” Tim chuckled slightly as he

pushed his glasses. Then, he walked toward the nephrology department.

Wanda looked at Sonia. “Miss Reed, Dr. Lancaster has headed there. Should we follow him or leave?”

“It’s bad manners to leave just like that. Let’s wait here then,” Sonia replied after she thought for a while.

After Wanda nodded, she didn’t say anything else. Her hands were still on the wheelchair handles while she waited

with Sonia.

After about 5 minutes or so, Tim returned to them.

Upon receiving Wanda’s prompt, Sonia opened her mouth to ask, “How is it?”

“There’s a problem with Titus’ kidneys,” Tim replied while pushing his glasses once again.

A surprised Sonia asked, “Kidney problems? It’s not because of the fall, is it?”

“No.” He shook his head. “The doctor explained that Titus is suffering from slight kidney failure.”

“Kidney failure?!” She exclaimed, “He’s suffering from kidney failure?”

“That’s correct.” Tim nodded. “I had a brief look at Titus’ medical records and found that he suffers from congenital

necrospermia, which means that his kidneys were already problematic from the start. Now, it’s showing signs of

failure as the organs are rapidly deteriorating.”

“So, if this continues, he’ll have to undergo a kidney transplant?” Sonia asked.

He shrugged. “More or less, but it wouldn’t change much even if he did because both kidneys need to be replaced.

Kidneys are hard to come by as it is and you’d be lucky enough to secure just one. It’s highly improbable to have

two suitable kidneys available.”

“I heard that people can survive with one kidney, though. Won’t it help to just transplant one?” She cocked her head

and asked again.

Tim played with the scalpel in his hand for the second time. “That’s true, at least for a healthy person. You can

survive with one kidney, but your body will grow weaker. You’ll just be barely surviving by that point. Titus, however,

is different. He cannot live with just one kidney.”

“Why not?” Sonia blinked.

He explained, “Because of his old age, his body isn’t in good condition. He has various aches and pains on top of

heart issues. So, one kidney won’t be able to handle all the processes going on in his body. Also, even if he receives

a new kidney, there’s a high possibility of kidney failure. If he’s lucky to have both his kidneys replaced, the same

thing will happen again.”

It was at that moment when Sonia understood and she moved her red lips. “So, in short, Titus only has death

waiting for him. A kidney transplant would only delay it a little longer.”

“That’s correct.” Tim nodded.

She gave a dry smile. “What good news! He deserved it!”

Titus had forced her father to death and now he himself was suffering from kidney failure. If it wasn’t retribution,

she didn’t know what it was.

“How long does he have, Tim?” Sonia probed as she clasped her hands together.

White light reflected off Tim’s glasses as he answered, “If he doesn’t undergo kidney transplant, he would have a

year or so left, judging by the rate it’s going. Probably not more than 10 years if he replaces his kidneys.”

“Hah! Great!” She smiled. “This is retribution!”

Upon seeing how happy Sonia was to have known about Titus’ kidney failure, Wanda leered as she reminded her,

“Please don’t put it like that, Miss Reed!”

Wanda also thought that Titus deserved it, but no matter what, he was still Sonia’s biological father. As his

daughter, even if she hated him to the bone, it was uncalled for to hear her say that her father deserved it.

Of course, if Titus weren’t Sonia’s biological father, Wanda wouldn’t have such thoughts.

So, Sonia frowned when she heard Wanda’s words. “Wanda, is there anything wrong with me saying things like

that?” Whose side is she on? Why is she standing up for Titus? Or, does she think that I shouldn’t say that about

him?

Wanda could see that Sonia was upset and she also realized that she said too much. She quickly explained, “It’s

nothing; I just thought that you shouldn’t rub salt into people’s wounds when they are suffering.”

“I don’t think I’m rubbing salt in his wound, though. Even if I did, I don’t think I’m in the wrong here. Titus is my

enemy, so shouldn’t I be glad that my enemy is down? I can’t just be compassionate and forget about my hatred,

can I? I’m not that nice and I’ve never been a kind person from the start,” a stoic Sonia cooly elaborated.

The hatred of the entire Reed Family rested upon her and she could barely catch a breath under the weight of it.

Revenge became her sole reason to live, but so much time had passed without any progress, which started to make

her panic. The anxiety was so great that she was close to being driven mad.

Now that she finally learnt that her enemy was critically ill, shouldn’t she be happy then?

Knowing that Sonia was upset with her, Wanda quickly apologized, “I’m terribly sorry, Miss Reed. I shouldn’t have

said those words.”

Sonia rubbed the spot between her eyebrows. “It’s fine. Just don’t do it again.”

After all, she would recover her eyesight in a few days and Wanda could head back to the housekeeping company

by then.

“We’ll take our leave now, Tim.” Sonia rested her hand on the armrest and spoke to Tim.

He nodded. “Take care.”

“Yeah.” She sounded a reply as Wanda took her into the elevator.

As he watched the elevator doors close, he took out his phone and made a call. He proceeded to say in a dark

voice, “Keep an eye on the organ database. If you find any suitable kidneys for Titus Gray, immediately block

them!”
