From Hatred to Passionate Love Amelia Hart

Chapter 328 Brandon is Here Penelope bit her lip. "Okay, I get it." "Ah," Lucy suddenly exclaimed, covering her mouth.

"What happened?" "Bleeding," Lucy said, "My teeth." Penelope's heart skipped a beat, as she quickly grabbed a tissue to press on the bleeding spot.

The doctor had mentioned that leukemia patients could have gum bleeding.

As Penelope saw one blood-stained tissue after another, a heavy feeling settled in her heart.

In the afternoon, Penelope went to the doctor's office.

"Are you Lucy's mother?" "Yes," Penelope nodded. "Here are the test results you asked for. Also, is my bone marrow a match?" The doctor looked over the test results.

After a bit, he shook his head. "Unfortunately, it's not a match. Has the child's father been tested?" "He..." Penelope said, "He's on a business trip and can't cback right now." "How can he think about work at a tlike this?" the doctor reproached, "Return quickly to see if he's a match. If not, we'll need to check the national bone marrow registry." "What if there's no match in the registry either?" "Then it gets more complicated," the doctor said seriously, "You'll need to get everyone around you tested, or even look abroad." That would need a lot of money and connections.

Penelope couldn't handle that alone.

Brandon could help, though.

But if Brandon started searching for bone marrow worldwide, Kelvin would definitely notice! At that point...

Penelope's mind was a mess.

"Doctor, what should I do now?" Penelope asked, "Just wait for a match?" "Yes, and Lucy needs to be hospitalized. Due to her youth, her condition is complex, requiring daily infusions and treatment.." "Okay." Penelope paid the fees and arranged for hospitalization.

Within the commonplace hospital ward resided three occupied beds, accompanied by attendants, which was noisy and chaotic.

Penelope tied up her hair and got busy.

Until Ruby arrived in the city with Sam.

"Mommy," Sam said as soon as he saw her, "you've lost weight." Seeing Lucy on the hospital bed getting an infusion, Sam's eyes turned red.

But he held back his tears.

Penelope forced a smile, gently caressing his head. "I'm on a diet. See how successful I've been." "Hmph, you're only ninety pounds. What are you dieting for! Eat more!" "Okay, Mommy will take you out to eat tonight." Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on novi L5sfor uninterrupted enjoyment.

I entered a competition without telling you.

Penelope shook her head. "Do your best in the competition. Even if you don't get first place, don't be discouraged." Sam responded confidently, "I will get first place!" "Yes, our Sam is the best." Sam ran to the bedside, his small body just a bit taller than the bed.

He said seriously, "Lucy, you need to get better soon. Once you're well, I'll call you old sister from now on." "I already am your old sister," Lucy replied, "I don't need your acknowledgment." "Alright, you're a girl. I'll let you have it," Sam shrugged coolly.

Watching the kids, Penelope felt a bit of her exhaustion lift.

"Penelope," Ruby walked over. "I'll take care of Lucy tonight. You go to the hotel and get ssleep." She couldn't sleep. Every tshe lay down, her mind was filled with thoughts about the bone marrow match. She was waiting for news from the registry every day. If there was no match, she'd have to pin her hopes on Kelvin and take Lucy to see him.

"I'll stay," Penelope said, "You and Sam go to the hotel." "You're worn out." "With Lucy's illness, how can I be in good spirits?" Ruby handed her the hotel room key. "Make sure to get a good night's sleep. You need to look after yourself to have the energy to care for Lucy.

Under Ruby's persuasion, Penelope took the key.

Upon arrival at the hotel following the address on her room key, she paused momentarily in astonishment, for it was a local five-star establishment within the city. How could Ruby afford this? Could it be... Brandon! Planning your weekend reading? Ensure you're on novi L5sfor uninterrupted enjoyment. The next chapter is just a click away, exclusively available on our site. Happy reading! Penelope quickened her pace and went to the room. As soon as she opened the door, she saw a figure by the window. Brandon, in a blue shirt and gray pants, pivoted at the sound of her approach.

Four years had passed. Although they had kept in touch, they had never met. Seeing her tired expression and thin frame, Brandon's heart ached. After leaving Kelvin and LA, she should have been happy and carefree. Who would have thought that Lucy's sudden illness would shatter all that happiness! "I knew it was you," Penelope said nervously, closing the door. "Why are you here?" "Don't worry. The room is booked under Ruby's name. They won't trace it back to you." Penelope lowered her head slightly. "Did you call this way for Lucy?" "Yes, I'm very worried," Brandon replied, "What's her condition now?"

Penelope recounted all the information provided by the doctor to him. Brandon frowned deeply. This ve was indeed very complicated. Money wasn't the issue, but bone marrow matches couldn't be solved with money alone! "What are you planning to do?" Brandon asked, "What can I do to help?" Hearing this, Penelope felt warmth in her heart. Every tsomething happened, Brandon would say, "What do you want to do?" "What can I do to help?" It gave her a great sense of security. It was as if he was always behind her, supporting her, and she could see his figure whenever she turned around.

"Wait," Penelope said, covering her face with her hands, her breath sighing through her fingers. "Wait for the results from the bone marrow registry." "And if there's no match?" "Then I'll have to go to Kelvin."

After Penelope said this, the room fell into a heavy silence. Brandon stood axhoughtful! there on his face. Penelope had no other choice. She couldn't just watch Lucy suffer. After a long time, Brandon finally spoke, "Are you planning to send Lucy to Kelvin, or are you going to take Lucy to see Kelvin yourself?" "I..." "You need to think it through," Brandon said, "These are completely different outcomes. If you send Lucy to Kelvin without showing yourself, I might still be able to help you hide from him, so he can't find you. But if you take Lucy back to LA, then what about Sam?"
