But it was late now, so she decided to return it to him the next time she saw him.
She knew that it was useless for her to keep them with her since it was impossible for them to go
through with the divorce now. It was impossible for them to get it done, and at least the hope was
slim.
It would only happen one day if he agreed to the divorce.
Thinking about that, Yvonne sighed. She put the document folder on the sofa in the living room.
Then, she took her pajamas and went for a bath.
That night, she had a good rest. It might be because of the atmosphere there. When she woke up, it
was almost noon the following day.
She rubbed her eyes and walked out of the room. She was slightly stunned when she heard the
sound of someone typing on the keyboard coming from the living room. She then looked toward the
living room. A t that moment, she saw a tall figure sitting on the sofa, fixing his eyes at the laptop
and facing away from her.
Yvonne became wide awake now. She widened her eyes in surprise. "Henry?"
'When did he come?'
Henry heard her voice. He stopped typing on the keyboard, turned around, and looked at her.
"Youâre u P"
Yvonne nodded in a daze. "You..."
"If you're up, go and clean yourself up. Then, come for lunch." Henry waved his hand and
interrupted her.
Yvonne looked at the few lunch boxes on the coffee table and asked him, "Did you bring them over
from the villa?"
"Yes, go and wash yourself up quickly," Henry urged her.
Yvonne answered lightly. Then, she went to the bathroom.
After she was done, she left the bathroom only to see that Henry had served the food on the dining
table nicely.
She went over and took her seat. Her eyes brightened when she saw the delicate dishes on the
plates. "Did Sue cook these?"
"That's right." Henry handed her a fork and a spoon. " Theyâre your favourites too."
"Thank you." Yvonne got the fork and spoon and thanked him.
Henry served her a prawn and put it in her bowl. "You don't have to thank me. Just eat."
"Fine...â Yvonne nodded slightly. She then ate the prawn in her bowl.
After lunch, she got up and put away the plates and cutlery. She then changed her clothes and went
out with Henry.
When they reached the hospital, they found that Shane had been waiting for them for a while now.
Seeing them enter his office, he quickly put down the pen in his hand and stood up. "Here you are."
âShane, I'll leave it to you." Henry nodded.
"Don't worry. I'm the most professional doctor," said Shane with a smile. He then turned to look at
Yvonne. "Did you feel sick recently?" he asked gently.
Soon, Henry's facial expression worsened.
If Shane was not the best doctor, Henry wouldâve never brought Yvonne there.
He was filled with much annoyance especially when h e thought of how Shane felt about Yvonne.
"I don't feel sick. Itâs just that I'm always tired, and I couldn't seem to summon my energy.
Sometimes, I feel dizzy." Yvonne described the symptoms in a simple way.
Hearing that, Henry could not be bothered about his jealousy toward Shane anymore. At that
moment, he was filled with guilt.
He knew why her body became like that.
The first time she donated her bone marrow, her body health deteriorated. What about the second
time, in addition to miscarriage? Certainly, one could easily understand why her body became so
weak and unhealthy.
"Shane..."
"Donât worry.â Shane interrupted him with a serious facial expression. "I know what youâre about to
say. I'll think about the most suitable plan to treat her body."
Henry replied lightly, and his facial expression became better. "Thank you."
Shane raised his eyebrows. "Thank you? How rare of you to thank me out of your initiative!â
"Thatâs enough.â Henry listened to his sneers. His facial expression darkened. He then ordered
Shane impatiently, "Take her for the body check-up immediately."
"Fine, I know." Shane rolled his eyes. After that, he took Yvonne with him to the examination room.
In the examination room, Yvonne laid on the examination table. Her entire body was tense, and she
was slightly frightened.
She could not help but remember the incident when she was forced on the operating table, with her
bone marrow taken away forcefully. Consequently, she suffered a miscarriage.
It happened a month ago. However, that experience was the thing she wanted to forget the most
deep inside her heart. Everytime she thought about that, she would be filled with excruciating pain.
Shane noticed that there was something wrong with Yvonne. He went toward her and checked on
her. She appeared to be in deep pain, and her face was covered with cold sweat. He thought that
she was suffering from physical pain. So he switched off the machine and half lifted her up.
"Yvonne, what's wrong with you? What's the matter? Tell me immediately." 1
Yvonne leaned against Shane's arms, and she was trembling slightly. "I'm fine..."
Her voice was hoarse.
Shane looked down at her. "Are you fine? Your face is pale."
"Iâm fine indeed." Yvonne smiled weakly, "I just thought of something frightening, so I became like
this. Iâm sorry for startling you."
"I'm not startled." Shane breathed a sigh of relief. "Iâm just worried about you. Regarding the
frightening event you mentioned just now, could you please tell m e about it?"
Yvonne shook her head. "There's nothing much to say about it. Itâs in the past now, and I don't want
to bring i t up again. Let's continue the examination."
Seeing her like that, Shane could do nothing else but suppress his disappointment. He then
resumed his work, examining her body condition.
Two hours later, the examination was completed.
Shane took the result from the nurse and took a look a t it. He then handed it to Yvonne. "Take a
look. This is the result of the examination.â
Yvonne waved her hand, and she did not take the result from him. "I don't have to look at it since I
don't understand it either. Just tell me about it directly."
"Sure.â Shane put away the result and smiled slightly." Although your body is quite weak, there
shouldn't be much of a problem if you take care of your health properly. But you should avoid things
like running or other sports since your body condition is not fitted for those kinds of things anymore.
Do you understand?"
Yvonne nodded slightly. She then mocked at herself and said, "It seems like I'm indeed quite lucky. I
donated my bone marrow twice, but I just can't exercise anymore. I thought that I'd suffer from
leukemia.â
"Although you donated your bone marrow twice, you won't necessarily suffer from leukemia
because of that. There are a few ways for you to get that. One may suffer from leukemia through
hereditary means, viral infections, or the pathological changes in the white blood cells after the bone
marrow donation. But your white blood cells function normally, so you won't be suffering from
leukemia.â Shane wrote something on the medical record and consoled her at the same time.
But Yvonne did not become relieved because of that. She smiled bitterly. "I read some information
about leukemia. Some of the cases revealed that the bone marrow donors might not have
pathologically changed white blood cells at first. But it happened later, then they would be suffering
from leukemia. So"
"So youâre worried that youâll be like that?" Shane stopped writing and looked at her.
She lowered her head and answered lightly. "Yes, I'm worried about that. Actually, Iâm not afraid of
getting leukemia, but Iâm disgusted the minute I think about the fact that I might get that disease
because of Jacqueline. I saved her once, and I didnât even wish that she would thank me for it.
But..."
Talking about that, she sobbed. "But I never thought that she and her father would repay my
kindness with such a cruel act!"
"That's human nature." Shane turned the pen in his head and said with an underlying meaning,
"During that year, Jacqueline's mom did the same thing to Dominic's first wife, repaying her
kindness with cruelty. Besides, she did something cruel to Dominic's first wife when Dominic
became prosperous and successful. Therefore, the entire family is indeed cruel and vicious. Luckily,
youâre nothing like them."
Yvonne looked at him in confusion. "What did you mean by that, saying that I'm nothing like them
luckily. Iâm not their family member. How could I be compared to them?"
Shane's eyes fluttered behind his glasses. He soon chuckled, "Fine, it was a slip of my tongue. But
what if we assume that Dominic is your father and Jacqueline is your younger sister. What will you
do? Will you forgive them?"
