Chapter 189

As they reached the elevator, Nyla’s expression turned cold. “You can go be with Jordyn. I’m heading

home to rest.”

Clark frowned. “I’ll take you home. You haven’t slept all night. I’m worried.”

Nyla smiled, her gaze filled with sarcasm. “Isn’t Jordyn’s father in surgery? Shouldn’t you be more concerned about that?”

“Nyla, no one is more important to me than you,” Clark insisted.

Nyla looked at him. His eyes still held affection, but she no longer felt any warmth toward him.

“Don’t say things like that. The more lies you tell, the more you end up believing them yourself,” she said. Before Clark could respond, a choked voice came from behind them. “Clark… my dad…”

Clark turned to see Jordyn with tears in her eyes, looking as if she might break down at any moment. His hands tightened into fists without him realizing.

Nyla, noticing his reaction, chuckled. As the elevator doors opened, she stepped inside without a backward glance. She had no interest in fighting over a cheating man with another woman.

“What’s wrong with him?” Clark asked.

The doctor said. his kidney has ruptured… H–He needs a transplant…” Jordyn sobbed.

“What?” Clark turned sharply to look at Nyla, but she was already gone. His eyes were filled with coldness when he saw that the elevator had reached the ground floor.

Clark wondered if he should commend Nyla for her composure, as she had managed to walk away so calmly despite Jordyn’s distress.

Jordyn’s sobbing sounds brought him back to reality. He turned to see her wiping her tears and felt a surge of frustration.

“How come he suddenly needs a kidney transplant?” he questioned.

Jordyn choked on her tears. “It’s not just the kidney. Other organs are also damaged, though not as severely. The kidney is the most critical… Clark, what should I do? If my dad dies, our family will be ruined

Clark understood that Jordyn’s family background was modest. Her parents were farmers, and she had a younger brother still in high school. Their income came primarily from farming. Her father’s death would Indeed be a devastating blow.

Clark’s gaze darkened as he thought about the kidney originally intended for Harrison. He had planned to delay Harrison’s transplant but had not considered giving the kidney to someone else.

However, seeing Jordyn so distraught, he felt a pang of sympathy. “I’ll see what I can do about the kidney, but I can’t guarantee I’ll find one.”

Jordyn’s eyes widened in shock, her expression filled with gratitude. “Really? Thank you! Clark, I don’t know how to thank you… If you can find a kidney, you’ll be our family’s savior!”

Her gratitude and emotional reaction satisfied Clark’s ego as a man, almost making him promise to find a kidney immediately. Jordyn’s reaction seemed more genuine compared to Nyla’s distant and cold demeanor after her thank–you.

The more Clark thought about it, the more frustrated he felt. Apart from his infidelity, he felt he hadn’t done much wrong, yet Nyla had condemned him without a chance to explain.

Seeing Clark’s grim expression and deep in thought, Jordyn lowered her gaze and remained silent. Clark’s lack of a direct refusal indicated there was still room for negotiation.

She was determined that Harrison would not receive the kidney.

Jordyn needed to ensure the situation pushed Nyla into despair, creating an irreparable rift between her and Clark.
