"Theo, I don't want to die! I want to be your wife and live on. I don't want to be your wife just for a few days. Save me, won't you? Please save me!" Cynthia pleaded.
She couldn't care less about getting married to Theodore at this point. She was originally elated to hear gun promise to marry her, because she was certain she would have a new heart. Yet now, he was suddenly telling her that the heart was no longer available.
In that case, what was the point of him marrying her? Even if he married her today, she might die tomorrow or the day after that! She didn't want to use her life to bet on just a short-lived moment of having her dream ctrue. She wanted to live on as Mrs. Spencer and be a loving couple with Theodore their entire lives.
"If I could give you my heart, I would," Theodore said solemnly as he held Cynthia's hand. "But Cindy, there are sthings that we just can't control." If his heart was a match with hers, he would gladly get into a car accident and donate his heart to Cynthia.
After all, his heart was already in a bloody mess. Just the mere thought of Rosalie made his heart almost stop pumping; the heart-wrenching pain ate away at him, making him utterly miserable. He didn't want to live anymore.

And yet, he had it coming. What a huge irony it all was! Tears streaked Cynthia's face.
"I'll take you to another hospital later. I promise you, it'll be better, and you won't suffer," Theodore went on. "Are you sendingto a hospice?" Cynthia asked in a trembling voice.
Patients sent to a hospice usually had no hope of being cured.
Theodore didn't reply to Cynthia, but his silence said it all.
"No, I'm not going!" Cynthia shook her head profusely. "Theo, I'm not transferring to another hospital. I'm staying here!" She couldn't go to a hospice. Going to a hospice meant that Theodore had given up on her! "Cindy, calm down. Staying here doesn't do you any good." If she found out that Rosalie was here too, she might beceven more agitated. Theodore had no choice but to take her away.
"I'm not going," Cynthia repeated as she clutched her chest. "I'm not going! Theo, I'm begging you. I want to stay here. Please don't sendelsewhere... Please!" Cynthia's cheeks were wet with her tears. Theodore couldn't bear seeing her cry so sorrowfully.
"Please, Theo. I'm begging you," Cynthia said as she hugged him tight. "Don't sendelsewhere. Don't you want to fulfill my wish? I wish to stay here!" Theodore sighed. "Alright, Cindy. I promise you, I won't transfer you to another hospital." He was worried Cynthia might die from getting too agitated even before getting transferred to another hospital. The only thing he could do right now was to keep her incher best mood possible.
Theodore stayed by Cynthia's side for a while longer. She looked weak and feeble, slipping in and out of consciousness while hugging the wedding gown in her arms. She didn't even have the energy to even get married to Theodore.
Right now what was most important to her wasn't getting married to Theodore, but surviving this ordeal. Without her life, what good was being his wife for a couple of days? Given her condition right now, they couldn't even consummate their marriage.
"Theo, go back and rest," she urged.
"I'm not going anywhere. I'll stay with you," Theodore said.

Cynthia shook her head. "No, I can't bear to see you like this, Go back and Like rest. Cback and be withafter you're well-rested." "It's alright. I want to be with you."
"Theo, I want to be alone for a while and think through things quietlym Cvisittomorrow, alright? just want to be by myself and calm down for a while now." This was Cynthia's first tasking Theodore to leave.
Theodore pondered for a moment before nodding. "Alright, then." It was reasonable for Cynthia to request for stalone after hearing such news.
Soon after, Theodore left.
Not long later, Cynthia pulled out her phone from under the low and e secretly dialed a number. X
