Chapter 54 Luna quickly rushed to Amanda, anxiety etched on her face. She wanted to ask, yet she didnât dare to speak.
Oliver gave Amanda a nod, signaling her to talk, âSheâs kept alive for now, but her time is running short. She urgently needs a heart transplant. Otherwise, she wonât make it more than a month,â Amanda said.
These words pierced Luna deeply, causing her to stumble backward in shock. âHow can it be so severe? What kind of injuries did she suffer back then?â
Amanda was about to respond when Oliverâs gaze stopped her. He asked, âDid you operate on her?â
âNo, sheâs not in a state for surgery right now unless an immediate heart transplant is possible. Iâve used acupuncture treatment to remove the clotted blood from her body. For now, weâll stick with conservative treatment,â Amanda explained.
After hearing all this, Luna was completely taken aback. The questions she had before no longer mattered; her mind was filled with hatred toward Jason. She silently vowed to avenge Sophia and make Jasonâs life a living hell.
âCan I go in to keep her company?â Luna managed to ask.
Amanda nodded and stepped aside to let her through, advising, âSheâs not awake yet. Once she is, try to counsel her to ward off depression. Harboring that kinda distress can be deadly for her.â
Luna casually responded and hurried into the ward.
Watching her go, Amanda looked up at Oliver and suggested, âSophia is really pitiable. Will you please stop using her? I know the Wilson family is your sworn enemy, and you are determined to take them down, but your power isnât yet enough to knock them out in one blow. Youâve been trying to take shortcuts to break Jasonâs will. But as you see, Jason is heartless Using Sophia to get to him wonât work; it only involves the innocent.â
Actually, Oliver could easily ask Roger for help in his revenge. The Wilson familyâs influence was nothing compared to the Watson Group, who could dismantle the Wilson family easily if they wished.
âWhy donât you just ask Mr. Watson...â
Amanda was cut off before she could finish as Oliver dismissed her with a wave of his hand. âMind your own business. Just take good care of herâ
After a slight hesitance, he added, âSend me her cardiac match data. Iâll contact the organ bank to see if we can find a suitable donor for her.â
Amanda nodded slightly before remembering the unborn child of Sophia. âIf we go for the heart transplant, the baby canât be saved. You need to discuss this with her first.â
âOkay,â responded Oliver.
Sophia was unconscious the entire night, only barely coming to the following morning. Her mind was a haze at first, but as her vision adjusted to the indoor light, memories began to trickle back.
Glancing to the side, she saw Luna seated at her bedside, dozing off. Lunaâs eyes were swollen from crying, with traces of tears still on her INSTALL 15:04 Tue, 25 Jun Chapter 54 face.
âLuna...â Sophia was about to call Luna to rest on the bed when a searing pain shot through her tongue, causing her body to tremble violently.
This movement pulled at the whip wounds on her body, the piercing pain so intense that she couldnât help but scream.

Luna woke from her doze to Sophiaâs contorted face and immediately grabbed her hand, her voice breaking as she asked, âDoes it hurt a lot? What can I do for you?â
Sophia clenched her teeth to withstand the overwhelming, crushing pain and managed a pale smile. âTm... okay...â
She couldnât finish before the wound on her tongue split again, and fresh blood trickled down the corner of her mouth.
Luna, in a panic, reached out to wipe away the blood, crying and pleading, âDonât talk anymore. Save your strength. I wonât ask.â
Sophia weakly lifted her hand, gripping Lunaâs wrist tightly, her eyes smiling in silent consolation.
She hadnât been able to keep Luna in the dark about her health after all. She hadnât mentioned it to avoid causing Luna distress. Sophia thought she could walk this last difficult road alone, there was no need to drag someone else into her pain.
Seeing Sophia still concerned for her amidst her own suffering made Luna sob even harder. âWhy are you so foolish?
Heâs just scum, not worth you burning your life away for!â
Sophia smiled weakly, about to bear the pain to respond, when the door to the room swung open fiercely.
Oliver strode in and started, âJasonâs brought a bunch of bodyguards. Seems he wants to take you back. You...
Sophia, overwhelmed with emotions, abruptly sat up on the bed. She didnât want to return to be further trampled upon and humiliated by that heartless man..
