Super Mommy and Her Triplets

Chapter 382

Scarlett stood up and glared daggers at Veronique. “What? Don't push your luck, you b*tch! I've

already agreed to cancel my marriage with Justin, so what more do you want from us? What does that

illegitimate child of yours have to do with me? Why should I even agree to save him?”

“Yeah? And what does your brother have to do with me? Why should I save him, huh?” Veronique

snapped back at her with a sneer.

“You...” Scarlett jabbed a finger at Veronique, but the words were stuck in her throat.

Veronique ignored her and turned to look at Tamara as she continued, “There, I've stated my request.

It's up to you two whether to fulfill it or not. It's true that the Fletcher family is incredibly powerful, but

you can't force me to perform this surgery. You wouldn't want to leave the fate of your son in the hands

of a reluctant surgeon, would you?”

Tamara fell silent as she tried to process the situation.

It's obvious that Veronique came here with this intention in mind. However, I can't possibly reject her

request when my son's life is on the line!

Scarlett's heart skipped a beat when she noticed Tamara starting to waver. “My body isn't fit enough for

a bone marrow donation, Mom! It could result in my death! You can't sacrifice my life to save Raiden's!”

she protested anxiously.

“Now you're just exaggerating, Ms. Fletcher. We'll just be taking a little bit of your bone marrow. It won't

even affect your health in the slightest, let alone put your life in danger!” Veronique said before Tamara

could even respond.

“Shut up, you!” Scarlett yelled at her before clinging to Tamara's arm as she sobbed. “You mustn't be

so selfish, Mom! You can't sacrifice your daughter just to save your son!”

Tamara frowned at her as she asked in displeasure, “So what? You want to just sit by and watch your

brother die?”

Scarlett stood up and glared daggers at Veronique. “What? Don't push your luck, you b*tch! I've

already agreed to cancel my marriage with Justin, so what more do you want from us? What does that

illegitimate child of yours have to do with me? Why should I even agree to save him?”

Scarlett went pale instantly. “No, I didn't mean it like that! I—”

Tamara interrupted her, “Enough! I don't want to hear another word from you! Since a bone marrow

donation isn't going to endanger your life, then you should sign the agreement and save your brother's

life!”

Scarlett's legs gave out beneath her, and she slumped weakly against the couch.

“N-No! I won't agree to this! No one has the right to take my bone marrow without my consent!”

“Oh well. If Ms. Fletcher won't agree to my request, then I won't force her to. You two can just sit by and

watch as Mr. Raiden dies of blood loss,” Veronique said with a shrug before she once more headed for

the door.

“Wait!” Tamara called out to her and turned toward Scarlett. Gritting her teeth, she declared, “If you

won't save your brother, then the Fletcher family will cut ties with you. If your brother dies, then you will

no longer be a member of this household!”

Scarlett glared at Tamara in disbelief. “Mom, are you seriously going to kick me out of the family?”

“If you don't even care about your own family member's life, then why should I keep you around?”

Tamara snapped back at her.

Feeling helpless and defeated, Scarlett slumped weakly against the couch.

Mom has always stayed true to her word, so there's no point in arguing any further. If Raiden dies

because of my selfishness, everyone in the Fletcher family will never forgive me.

“All right... I agree to donate my bone marrow. There. Can you go operate on my brother now?” she

said after a long pause.

Veronique pulled out two copies of the document from her handbag. “I'm afraid a verbal promise isn't

going to suffice. Sign this agreement, and I'll perform the surgery.”

“You...”

“I suggest you hurry it up, Ms. Fletcher. It has already been two hours since your brother got shot. As fit

and strong as he may be, he's probably at his limits by now.”

Scorlett went pole instontly. “No, I didn't meon it like thot! I—”

Tomoro interrupted her, “Enough! I don't wont to heor onother word from you! Since o bone morrow

donotion isn't going to endonger your life, then you should sign the ogreement ond sove your brother's

life!”

Scorlett's legs gove out beneoth her, ond she slumped weokly ogoinst the couch.

“N-No! I won't ogree to this! No one hos the right to toke my bone morrow without my consent!”

“Oh well. If Ms. Fletcher won't ogree to my request, then I won't force her to. You two con just sit by ond

wotch os Mr. Roiden dies of blood loss,” Veronique soid with o shrug before she once more heoded for

the door.

“Woit!” Tomoro colled out to her ond turned toword Scorlett. Gritting her teeth, she declored, “If you

won't sove your brother, then the Fletcher fomily will cut ties with you. If your brother dies, then you will

no longer be o member of this household!”

Scorlett glored ot Tomoro in disbelief. “Mom, ore you seriously going to kick me out of the fomily?”

“If you don't even core obout your own fomily member's life, then why should I keep you oround?”

Tomoro snopped bock ot her.

Feeling helpless ond defeoted, Scorlett slumped weokly ogoinst the couch.

Mom hos olwoys stoyed true to her word, so there's no point in orguing ony further. If Roiden dies

becouse of my selfishness, everyone in the Fletcher fomily will never forgive me.

“All right... I ogree to donote my bone morrow. There. Con you go operote on my brother now?” she

soid ofter o long pouse.

Veronique pulled out two copies of the document from her hondbog. “I'm ofroid o verbol promise isn't

going to suffice. Sign this ogreement, ond I'll perform the surgery.”

“You...”

“I suggest you hurry it up, Ms. Fletcher. It hos olreody been two hours since your brother got shot. As fit

ond strong os he moy be, he's probobly ot his limits by now.”

Scarlett was gnashing her teeth in anger and frustration, but she had no choice in that situation.

Her eyes were filled with hatred as she took the documents over and signed them.

Ugh! I hate this! I hate this so much! I hate Veronique and her son to the bone, and yet, I have to

sacrifice myself to save that boy.

“Here, they're signed. Can you go save my son now?” Tamara asked while handing Veronique the

signed documents.

“Of course. I'll go perform that surgery right away,” Veronique replied with a nod.

There was a hint of guilt in Tamara's eyes when she looked at Scarlett.

However, the thought of her son's life hanging in the balance quickly snapped her out of it.

It's okay. I'll have plenty of opportunities to make it up to her in the future.

Worried, Bailey and Artemis rushed over to the military general hospital as quickly as they could.

Their gazes fell upon the two middle-aged men sitting on the bench outside the emergency room.

“That's Sloan Fletcher and Mr. Steven Shurmer,” Artemis whispered.

He could clearly feel Bailey tremble a little when she heard that.

She's not nervous because she's meeting someone powerful like Sloan. Instead, she's anxious

because she's meeting her biological father. She, too, desires familial love like anyone else. Looks like

she isn't as cold-hearted as she appears on the outside, after all.

“Sloan and Mr. Shurmer were having a meeting in the capital. They must've come over to Hallsbay

after hearing about Raiden's injury.”

Bailey nodded and took a deep breath before walking toward them.
