“Something happened to him. We have to get to Turlen right now. He’s got final-stage leukemia. Please
call Willow and ask if she knows which doctor has been treating him. We’re going to bring the doctor
along too!”
Did he just say ‘leukemia’?
Sasha felt dizzy all of a sudden.
After an hour, both of them left together with a doctor right away.
Willow turned wistful as she watched Sebastian and Sasha leave. Her heart wrenched in pain at the
thought of Solomon’s predicament as she silently prayed for him on the balcony.
Solomon, you can get through it.
What she did not realize was that the woman on the bed behind her was slowly regaining
consciousness.
In order to reach Turlen in the shortest time possible, Sasha and Sebastian decided to take a private jet
instead of a commercial flight.
Hence, it was only three to four in the morning when they reached Turlen.
“Where is he?” the couple asked in unison upon arrival at the hospital.
At that moment, Devin stood right in front of the operating theater, looking weary with his bloodshot
eyes. As a soldier, he was always meticulous about his appearance and image. However, the shocking
turn of events took a toll on him.
“He’s still in the operating theater… The doctor is using a coagulating pump on him.”
“Coagulating pump?”
All colors drained from Sasha’s face upon hearing those words.
A coagulating pump was a recent invention in the medical industry. It would use high pressure to freeze
a patient’s blood to stop excessive blood loss should normal surgery and medicine fail to do so.
It could buy more time for doctors to tend to the patient’s wound.
The fact that they were using the machine on Solomon was enough to illustrate how dire his condition
was.
“No, I need to have a look!” Sasha could not bring herself to calm down and insisted on going into the
operating theater to take a look. She was hoping to use her techniques to stop the profuse bleeding.
However, when even bone marrow cultivated from stem cells failed to save him, what could Sasha
even do?
Sebastian stopped her and said, “There’s no point of you getting in there. Dr. John, please get inside
and hand over the medicine you brought along.”
“Yes. Mr. Hayes.”
Having said that, the doctor whom they brought along from Clear went into the operating theater.
They waited for another excruciating two hours in the hallway without uttering a word.
Sasha and Sebastian did not even ask Devin what had happened to Solomon. Similarly, Devin did not
ask them what happened in Clear either.
It was as though they had a tacit understanding that the deafening silence would only break after
knowing that Solomon was out of danger.
Fortunately, after two hours, just when the first ray of light penetrated through the window, the red light
outside the operating theater finally went off.
“It’s off!”
Sasha sprung up from the bench right away.
Sebastian turned his head to take a glance as well.
However, he did not budge as he observed Devin, who had been pacing back and forth, dashing
toward the operating theater.
As expected, Solomon was pushed out of the operating theater.
“Doctor, how is he doing?”
“The bleeding has stopped after using Dr. John’s medicine. However, he’s still in a very critical
condition. If the bone marrow problem persists, I’m afraid that…”
The doctor did not finish his sentence, knowing full well that he had conveyed the message.
Sasha staggered backwards after hearing the news.
“Darling!” Sebastian noticed her faltering and stepped forward to steady her.
How can we solve the bone marrow issue?
The answer was actually pretty straightforward. They needed to revive the calcified bone marrow that
had lost its vital function to produce blood cells.
However, knowing that Solomon was poisoned rather than having developed leukemia, they couldn’t
help but wonder if they could still save him.
Sasha turned to look at Solomon who was on the operating table. I finally found him, but now…
In the end, she could no longer contain her tears.
“I cannot let my brother die…”
“Yes, I know.”
“So, is there a way to save him?”
His calm and composed voice gave Sasha a glimmer of hope as she looked hopefully over at the man.
Devin cast a hopeful look at Sebastian as well.
However, in the end, he gave a solution that could not yield immediate results.
“I’ve sent over his bone marrow samples to Grayson at the Jadeborough General Hospital. That’s the
best hospital in the country and one of the best in the whole world as well. I’m currently waiting for his
reply.”
“Okay…”
Even though Sasha was feeling a bit let down by the proposed solution, it was still better than nothing.
After that, they watched as the doctor pushed Solomon into the intensive care unit. Then, Sebastian
shot a daggered look over at the man standing opposite him.
