Chapter 287 This Woman Is Really Fearless!

As for Taylor, he nonchalantly followed Amanda. “How’s your son? His condition is getting critical, isn’tit? How much time does he have left before he dies? I can attend his funeral if I’m free.”

Amanda abruptly turned around and slapped Taylor without hesitation after she heard him talk abouther son’s death. The loud slap resounded through the hall, causing the passersby to stop and look atthem.

Despite the hard slap, Taylor burst out laughing. He caressed his cheek that had just gotten slappedand looked at the enraged Amanda. “Your son is still alive, yet you are already so furious. What if heactually dies? Are you saying that you will die with him?”

This guy is scum! How is it that every word spoken by him sounds like a knife to my heart!? Amanda,once again, raised her arm. This time, she wanted to slap the other side of Taylor’s checks.

To her surprise, Taylor grabbed hold of her hand. “That’s enough. Do you honestly think I will just standhere and let you slap me as you wish? Who do you think you are? You are merely a woman whowished to claim ties with Elias but got abandoned by him. Not to mention, you had to raise your childalone so piteously.”

She withdrew her arm and glared at the man in front of her. “Who do you think you are, then? You arenothing but a lowlife who can’t even protect your own sister and only knows how to persistentlydemand. Elias take responsibility for what happened. What have you done to help your sister? Whatright do you have to ridicule me? At least, I have never harassed you to donate your bone marrow formy son. What about you, huh?!”

“What about me? Damn it! F*cking make yourself clear! Amanda’s words hit right at Taylor’s vulnerablespot, successfully infuriating him.

He was right about one thing. She was a lawyer, so naturally, she was more than qualified in dissingpeople.

Amanda sneered, disdain written all over her face as she added, “You dare ask me what about you?Elias. doesn’t fancy your sister. He doesn’t give a damn about her. In fact, he isn’t even interested intoying with” her. Yet, here you are, constantly begging him to save your sister. What? Is he obligated todo so? That’s your sister, not his. So, why do you blame him for all your grievances after somethinghappened to your sister? What were you doing when your sister swallowed the sleeping pills? Whydidn’t you stop her?”

Every word that escaped Amanda’s lips caused Taylor’s anger to intensify. Finally, he erupted androared, “Shut the f*ck up! What do you know?! What makes you think you have the right to spew suchthings?!”

“Then, what makes you think you have the right to curse my son?! What did my son do? Is he in thewrong just because he is Elias’ son? What does your enmity with Elias have to do with my son? Youare a grown man, yet you don’t even have the slightest sense. You are just as worthless as a piece oftrash.”

After that, Amanda turned around and left the hospital without sparing him a glance. Only Taylor wasleft standing there looking furious as he received a peculiar look from the passersby. Ha! This woman isreally fearless! Excellent! Truly excellent! Just wait! I will make her come crying and begging me toforgive her!

In the meantime, an elderly passerby was staring at him as if he was looking at a freak. Taylor sensedthis as he yelled at the elder, “What the hell are you looking at?! F*ck off!”

With that, the elder cursed under his breath before leaving the scene.

Taylor clenched his fists tightly, wishing so badly that he could strangle Amanda to death.

Meanwhile, Aiden and Selina were playing with toy bricks in the ward. Aiden looked so happy that itwas as though he had forgotten that he was hospitalized. Such was the scene Amanda stumbled uponafter returning from buying a cake. She unconsciously smiled along when she saw how happy Aidenwas. Then, she sat on the couch on the side and quietly watched as Aiden played with Selina.

Amanda sat there for a long while when suddenly, a nurse came and knocked on the door. WhenAmanda went to open the door, the nurse said, “Are you Aiden Bailey’s family members? Dr. Smith isasking for you in his office. He has something to tell you.”

“What is it?” Amanda involuntarily tensed up. Don’t tell me it’s bad news again. In truth, Amanda’snerves were strung taut during her stay in the hospital these few days. She feared the doctor would tellher more bad news regarding Aiden’s condition in the next second.

Unfortunately, the nurse didn’t enlighten her as she simply turned around and left.

Amanda stood still, but her heart couldn’t help but start pounding against her ribcage. She was ontenterhooks as she arrived at Christopher’s office. Christopher, who was filling out the medical records,saw her and beckoned, “Please take a seat, Miss Bailey.”

“Dr. Smith, is there something wrong with my son? What is it that you want to tell me?” AlthoughAmanda feared the answer she would be receiving, she still had to know just why Christopher waslooking for her.

Christopher placed the medical record in his hands down as he smiled and explained, “Calm down. I’mlooking for you this time because I have some good news to share with you. We have found anothersuitable bone marrow match for Aiden from the Corynthea Marrow Donor Program’s list of donors.Moreover, this donor is quite young. Hence, we can arrange Aiden’s bone marrow transplant procedureas soon as possible.”

Amanda widened her eyes in shock. She was so stunned and didn’t know how to react for a moment.She wanted to burst into tears and laughter at the same time. I can’t believe the hospital managed toreplace another suitable bone marrow match for Aiden!

“I-Is this true? Can you tell me the identity of this donor? I want to thank them in person.” Amanda wasso exhilarated that she started to stammer a little.

“I’m afraid I can’t. We don’t know the donor’s information as well. It is the rule and the donor’s privacy.Plus, the donor has requested to be anonymous. So.. I can’t help you with this. In addition, the donordoesn’t want a reward.”

Amanda had no idea how to describe her current mood. It was as if a bright light suddenly shone uponher, who was in an abyss. That light shone her way straight to heaven and even the usually blue skyseemed particularly special today.

Amanda couldn’t help but burst out into chuckles while she headed back to Aiden’s ward. Every cloudhas a silver lining, indeed. Finally, there is hope! The doctor has found a matching bone marrow. Babyis saved!

She took out her phone and called Elias. Soon, the call went through, and Elias’ low-toned voicesounded, “What’s wrong? Did something happen to Aiden?”

“No, no. Everything is fine. Dr. Smith called me to his office just now. He told me they had searchedthrough the list of donors in the Corynthea Marrow Donor Program and found a suitable bone marrowmatch. What’s more, the donor is willing to donate for free! This is such great news! We can proceedwith

Aiden’s bone marrow transplant procedure without delay!”

Amanda excitedly gripped her phone tightly, unable to suppress her joy. As for Elias, he was theopposite. Not only was he not as happy as Amanda, but he also raised another question. “Do you knowany. information regarding the donor?”

“No, I don’t. Dr. Smith said that the donor doesn’t want to expose their privacy and has requested toremain anonymous.”

“Okay, I understand. I will drop by the hospital after settling all affairs. Just stay with Aiden in thehospital and don’t go anywhere.”

“Okay,” Amanda hummed.

Regardless, she felt that there was something a bit off with Elias’ emotions after she ended the call. Wehave finally found a suitable bone marrow match for Aiden, but tohy isn’t Elias feeling even the slightestjoy? Instead, he is somewhat oddly indifferent. Come to think of it, what exactly is he so preoccupiedwith?
