Chapter 712: 712: Make Them Repay Double

Olivia Jenkins knitted her brows together.

After waiting for a while, Olivia made a second call.

It had been a while and Olivia felt that Daniel would not pick up just as he didn’t during the first call.

Just as Olivia was about to hang up, a response came from the other end of the phone, and Daniel’s raspy voice could be heard.

“Sorry, Honey, I’m pretty busy.”

Olivia’s eyes gently quivered, and a light smile appeared on her lips, “It’s okay, I am just calling to check if you’re okay.”

“Honey, I’m fine, don’t worry about me. You should rest early, I’ll call you earlier tomorrow.”

“Okay, make sure to rest too, don’t overexert yourself!”

“I really want to hold you in my arms—hold you for a lifetime. I don’t want to be separated from you.” Daniel’s voice was deep and pleasant, like a soothing bass that intoxicated the listener, making one want to hear more.

Olivia gently pressed her lips together, unable to hide the expression of happiness on her beautiful face, while the gloom in her heart was swept away all at once.

“Honey, I received your feelings. I’ll wait for you to come back, and I’ll miss you. Good night, let’s talk again tomorrow.”

“Honey, good night!”

With a comforting smile, Daniel hung up the call.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Immediately after, Daniel’s expression became solemn again, as he continued his search for a matching blood type to donate to his mother.

Because Daniel had surgery last year, and Olivia had donated blood to him and taken into account his past medical conditions, he couldn’t donate blood to his mother.

The O-type blood reserves in Binzhou were insufficient, so they had to find more donors or get blood from larger cities overnight.

The results of his mother’s medical examination were out, determining a femur fracture. The fracture site was deformed and surgery was necessary.

The hospital in Binzhou was not like those in the big cities. The operation was challenging and the director wasn’t too confident. Therefore, Daniel had an orthopedic specialist from Kyoto perform the surgery, which was scheduled for the next afternoon.

The situation was urgent, and they needed to find enough blood for the surgery as quickly as possible.

At that time, his mother couldn’t move, was terribly in pain, and felt extremely helpless. Grace returned in a hurry, holding back her tears while accompanying his mother in the ward.

Grace, who didn’t have any understanding of medical matters, just followed the doctor’s instructions and waited for updates. She really couldn’t do much.

Behind the scenes, Daniel took charge and was busy preparing everything needed by the doctor. He cooperated with the doctor just to ensure the smooth progression of the operation.

…

It was late at night and they finally had enough blood for the operation. Only then did Daniel breathe a sigh of relief.

Without taking the time to rest, Daniel donned a mask and slipped on his glasses to disguise his tired face. He quietly walked into his mother’s private hospital room.

Because she had taken some painkillers prescribed by the doctor, his mother was able to sleep. She was in deep sleep and didn’t react when Daniel entered.

Grace was also exhausted and was in deep sleep.

Daniel went closer to his mother. His pained gaze fixed on her, without blinking once.

Daniel’s brows were tightly knitted. Instinctively, he gently held his mother’s hand and covered her with a blanket.

“Mom, I’m here with you, just rest and recover. The doctor said, after the surgery, you will be able to walk again.”

“Mom, don’t be afraid, I will protect you. No one will be able to harm you again.”

“Mom, I miss you so much. I just wish you could look at me intently, or even just pat my head. It would be my sweetest joy. You’ve had a hard time over these years, I know you’ve been wronged too. Don’t worry, I’ll make them pay double for what they’ve done to you.”
