Chapter 227
Huh? Edward was in critical condition?
But he had just participated in the academy's centennial, and he seemed perfectly fine when he harassed me.
And now he was close to dying?
| quickly regained my composure and calmed myself, realizing that his death had nothing to do with me.
“How am | supposed to save him? P’'m not a doctor,” | retorted. “Plus, we're no longer together-there’s nothing
left between us.”
“You can save him, Taylor. He needs a blood transfusion, but there's not much RH-negative blood in the blood
bank
“It’s going to be too late for him to wait for someone else’s donation, but you can save him... You're the only
one!” Sally's tone was much more humble now, a stark contrast to her cursing last night.
Yet, a chill ran down my spine.
Their attitude towardhad only changed because they realized | was useful to them-this time, as a blood
donor.
“You're his family, so one of you must have the sblood type. You don’t need to begthis badly,” |
rebuked.
“Edward's father and aunt already donated their blood a few days ago and can’t donate again for a while... |
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwouldn't have called you if | had any other choice, would 1?”
They had already donated?
Aah! That meant Edward's condition was already serious when he fainted and was taken away after our trial. In
that case, why would he still choose to drink so much alcohol?
“Is he sick again?” | asked, my voice stem.
Sally choked, then replied, “Yes...”
| sneered. “Then there's no reason forto save him. He knows how bad his condition is, yet he still chose to
drink so much... To the point of getting drunk. I should just let him die if that's what he wants.”
Sally shrieked, “How could you say such a thing, Taylor?! Don’t you know he’s been drinking because you kept
insisting on ending your relationship?
“Yes, he may have been wrong, but he’s already apologized to you, hasn't he? Why would you be so merciless
and force him to die?”
Sally’s voice had returned to its usual tone, no longer humble but accusatory. In fact, she was starting to pin the
blon me.
Yet, all she did was makeangrier.
“Why would | give him any of my precious blood to save him if | really wanted to force him to die? Are you
crazy?” “Taylor, you can’t-"
“I'm busy. Don’t callagain.”
I hung up, cutting off Sally’s tirade.

Chapter 277
Thanks to her and her depressing news, | couldn't fall asleep again, so | decided to get out of bed.
As | was finishing my shower and heading to the office, my phone beeped,
At first, | thought it was just more harassment from the Kennedys. But when | saw who it was from, | couldn't
help but smile.
Soren: [Good morning.)
Just two words. Just two words from Soren were enough to lift my mood from my frustration.
| picked up my phone as | stopped at a red light, and flashes of last night's events flickered in my mind.
Was he officially trying to winover? Or was he just testing the waters to see if | had lowered my defenses?
After a moment's thought, | decided to reply with a simple message.
Me: [Good morning.]

| put my phone down, but the smile stayed on my face for a while longer.
My phone rang again, but the light had already turned green. | resisted the urge to look and continued driving
Still, | couldn’t shake the thought that had crossed my mind just moments ago.
Was he going to keep waiting for me? Had he grown impatient by now? Was he going to think | was ignoring him
on purpose?
Nah... Surely not.
He was a really mature person who wasn’t fully focused on being in a relationship-of course, he wouldn't waste
his ton a woman.
Oh... How wrong | was...
My phone rang twice in quick succession, making it harder to resist the urge to look. | even began anticipating
the next red light.
Yet, as if the universe enjoyed taunting me, | hit four green lights in a row,
Just as | hoped for a red light to check my phone, it rang once more.
