Cord blood? Nora was slightly taken aback to hear that.
She said, “My cord blood is still around?”
Lisa nodded.
“Yes.Mom says that back then, when Aunt Yvette…when your mom gave birth to you, she had
insisted on banking your cord blood.To be honest, this wasn’t a popular practice in the country at
that time and wasn’t widely promoted in hospitals, either, so it was very expensive.
However, she was very stubborn about it and said that you would need it in the future.
Mom had said that you definitely won’t, so she mustn’t say that…
Lisa had also been a little surprised when she heard about it from Irene.
Banking cord blood was just a sort of insurance.
Nobody would wish for it to come into use.
After all, once one needed it, it would mean that they had blood disorders.
So, how could Nora’s mother say such a thing back then? While she was thinking about it, she saw
Nora’s eyes brighten.
The woman’s lips slowly curled into a smile and she said, “What a coincidence.I just so happen to
need it’’
Lisa:”?”
She was stunned.
Suddenly, her eyes reddened and she said, “Nora, could it be that you…you…”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtNo wonder Nora had lost so much weight and was always so lethargic.
On top of that, she wasn’t in good spirits and was so pale that it looked as if all the blood had
drained from her face.
Did she have a blood disorder? While her imagination was running wild, Nora said, “I’m not sick.I
just need it for something, that’s all”
Lisa:”??”
Before she could figure it out, Nora had already picked up her cell phone and called Lily.
She asked, “Where are you?”
Lily replied, “I’m arranging your operation schedule.There are a few that I can do, so I’ve fended
them off for you.What’s up?”
Nora said “…Find some time to go to California.Go to the hospital and take my cord blood from the
cord blood bank, and then do another DNA test”
“??? You actually still have your cord blood? My god, your mother is so amazing.Did she expect
that you’ll need it?”
Nora narrowed her eyes.
“Perhaps.”
Otherwise, why would Yvette insist on banking her cord blood back then? These days, she kept
feeling like there was a purpose behind all her mother’s arrangements.
She couldn’t help but think of what Morris had said in the police station.
Was her mother really involved with the so- called ‘mysterious organization’? And even participated
in their human experiments? The look in Nora’s eyes turned a little cold at the thought, and even
her tone became a little impatient.
She said, “Go as soon as you can.”
Lily, who heard the change in her emotions, was so scared that she didn’t dare to say any more.
She immediately replied respectfully, “Okay, I will leave for California right away.I’ll be able to
produce the newest DNA test results by tomorrow at the latest”
“Okay” Nora hung up.
She rubbed her temples and suppressed her irritability.
Then, she looked at Lisa.
She was about to speak when a voice suddenly reached them.
“Nora! You’re awake? Oh, Nora’s little cousin! You’re here again!”
She and Lisa turned in unison to see Louis walking in from outside.
His blond hair was exceptionally glaring.
His eyes on his handsome face lit up a little at the sight of Lisa.
As for Lisa, she reacted like a mouse that had just seen a cat and didn’t even dare to look straight
at him.
She looked at Nora as if she was complaining and said, “Nora, d-didn’ t you say that he won’t be
here?”
Nora:”?”
Before she could speak, Louis had come up to them.
He said, “Yeah, I originally wasn’t planning to come back tonight, either.But Lucy called me and said
that Nora was asking whether I would be home tonight, so I turned down Chester when he asked

Lisa:”!!”
Nora:”!!!”
Nora wanted to say something, but Lisa had already jumped up and said, “Nora, I…I suddenly
remembered that I have a paper that I need to write.It’s very urgent, so I’m leaving first! Mom was
very worried about you, but now that I see that you’re doing well, both Mom and I will be relieved!”
Then, she turned and fled toward the door.
“Tell us if someone bullies you.I’ll leave first!”
Nora:”…”
She was planning to have a chat with Lisa that night, but unexpectedly, she had left just like that?
She stepped forward, intending to see her off.
But as soon as she did, Louis said enthusiastically, “You don’t have to lower yourself to do
something like that.Let me do it! I’ll see her off!”
After saying that, he chased after Lisa and said, “Nora’s little cousin, shall I drive you back to
school?”
Lisa’s voice traveled over after that.
“N-no, you don’t have to.”
“You don’t have to stand on ceremony! C’mon, get in the car”
“We’re not that familiar with each other.I’ll just hail a cab.Thanks.”
Louis’s annoying voice traveled over.
